It's our first X-Community episode! We're joined by our friends @warpath_dylan, @meshellwaffleo and @dmandamartini to talk cosplay and all the ways we engage as fans. This episode was a ton of fun to record, full of laughs, tears and insightful stories about creating costumes, finding your voice and being positive in the community. Plus we get to add in our own insights as hosts - Alicia with her years of experience making costumes and Justin with his years of being thankful that Alicia makes his costumes :)

And what a vacation it was! Six weeks flew by and we find ourselves back in the chairs, in front of the mic - but all new, all different. Catch up with us as we talk comics, future episodes and general feels. We're making some changes and we want you to come along with us!

What a doozy of a double week! We had some work things come up and honestly weren't feeling inspired with the lineup, so we've combined it! PLUS all the fire that came out last week. The solos overload our pullboxes and hearts at the same time. 3K's X-Men get told what's up by Scott and then respond in kind. And that final issue of NYX leaves us wanting more with no hope in sight...
