Live from New York, it’s SIMPLY AMAZING!

Lisa’s birthday is this week, so Lauren took a trip to NY to visit her and record the first Simply Amazing ep together, in the same room!

Reading live for the first time, Lisa reads Legion of X #3 and gives her live reaction!

BAMFS are back? Weaponless Zen being a sword gay? Emo Gay Juggernaut? And..

Oh god… is Kurt dreaming about fucking his sister?!? Again?!?

Additionally, Lauren brings up the case for #AndrewCrawler! Don’t know what it is? Check it out on the Twitter @SimplyAmzingPod

Judgement Day is coming! Avengers, X-Men, and The Eternals have a summer event and it's not all sunshine and beach balls!

What’s this event about? What can we expect? Do we trust Gillen with our X-Men?

Also: What would Jesus say to Kurt?

Yup, Lisa and Lauren went there! This episode is as chaotic as this summer event is sure to be!

Are you excited for Judgement Day? Do you think this will be a worthy event? Let us know!

Is Legion of X a series about Nightcrawler and the team, or is it about LEGION, David Himself?

Tune in as Lisa and Lauren breakdown why this series (so far) is NOT a Kurt book and…. well, Lauren’s there folks. The Krakoan era is NOT serving Kurt well.

Fingers crossed things get better, but, well, it would be a SIMPLY AMAZING feat at this point!

Our Name Sake, Our First PRIDE Episode!

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH, BAMFers!!

In honor of Pride month, Lisa and Lauren decided to sit and recap Amazing X-Men #13, an issue focused on Anole, Northstar, and Nightcrawler as they navigate a day at Jean Grey’s Institute for Higher Learning… and what it’s like to be both X-Men with physical differences and… gay!

OUR 40TH EPISODE IS HERE!

One of Lisa’s favorite comic issues ever, Exiles #16, is a very Nocturne-heavy issue. That’s right- we’re talking about TJ, Kurt Wagner’s Daughter, again!!

Why should I read Exiles?!

In the words of the great Lizzo: It’s About Damn Time!

CONTENT WARNING: Infant Loss, abortion

Was this issue written well? Was it a good issue for TJ as a character? How would Kurt have reacted as a father if he were present for the events of this issue? 

If you haven’t read Exiles #16 yet, you NEED to. Written in 2002, it still holds up 20 years later in 2022!

Please Rate, Subscribe, Share, and all those BAMFY things Nightcrawler would do!

Legion of X? More like Legion of GODS and Hope for Kurt’s Character Development!

Lisa and Lauren sit down to talk all about Legion of X #1! Full Spoilers ahead!

How well is it going to enforce Krakoa’s three laws? Legion and Blindfold are back together?! FORGET ME NOT IS HERE?! If GODS don’t stand a chance against the Arakki, who does? And will Kurt finally get challenged in a positive way by Weaponless Zsen, and possibly laid?

There’s SO much to talk about!

Also: want a side rant about Cyclops and the concussive dimension? Lisa’s got you!

What if Marvel wrote Nightcrawler's headcanon parents, Mystique and Irene, and their past a step further? What if not only Irene Adler (Destiny) was the one from Sherlock Holmes, but Mystique was Sherlock Holmes when they met?!

Tune in as Lisa and Lauren talk with Lauren's sibling, Skylar, about this popular fan theory and whether or not this could actually happen today!

By the looks of Immortal X-Men, it's seeming more possible by the day...

Did you think Nightcrawler 1985 was bizarre? Folks, wait till you see the adventure Kurt and The Vanisher get into in Bizarre Adventures #27!

The Vanisher, who the hell is that?!?

Well, he’s an X-Men villain who’s first appearance was in X-Men #2! That’s right, he’s been around forever!

In this issue, Nightcrawler accidentally causes The Vanisher to send them to another dimension where everything is great. Well, maybe *too* great.

Tune in as Lisa and Lauren delve into this hilarious story. Can Lisa calm Lauren’s thirst? Is any Kurt collection complete without this story??

The answer to both of these questions is the most positive NO!
