Listen Later

Welcome to the Study, listeners! In this episode, we meet a new team of mutants in X-Factor and we touch on how LGBT heavy this new team as well as the book exploring cultural aspects of Krakoa in a way where that we haven't seen before. We then jump into a Magneto story where he fights a sea monster with Namor with some gorgeous looking art, before heading back to Cable where we discuss Scott eating a Philly Cheesesteak.
