X Is For Comics: An X-Men Podcast

Take a look at the last 18 months of Marvel Number Ones – Who has had how many, how many times? Who hasn’t had a number one in a while? What titles went from on-goings to miniseries? Check out Jan 2022 - Jun 2023 with the X-Pack from the relaunch of Iron Fist under Alyssa Wong & Michael Yg; Jed MacKay’s multiple resets on Doctor Strange (that were all the same story?); and the never ending cycle of X-Titles. Really. It never ends. It's all this and more on an all new X Is For Podcast -- we hope you survive the experience!

The Action Pack may be kings of talking-media-all nowadays but when this show first began it had a pretty singular focus: Marvel Comics and, more specifically, X-Men. Over the years, the crew expanded ranks and coverage, and even added sub-series like the deep-dive into MC2 that became all-things Spider-Girl / Spider-Verse / The Totemic Symbology Of All Fiction. Comics will always be a home for the X-Pack, and we’re thrilled to come back to it with a look at Marvel’s complete MU-related releases from March through June plus a two-month gaze into the future.

Check out the Spider-Verse, from ASM's shocking character death to the return of Spider-Man India and the double symbiote summer crossover; tour into the X-Books, where the Fisks are making themselves at home and 7 new titles kick off, including Realm of X and Children of the Vault; spin through the Avengers World, where old is new as Cap hits #750 then does a Finale, and the Uncanny Avengers Return just as Thor, Black Panther, and Hulk all relaunch within 4 months; and say goodbye to the Hand epic as we know it with Daredevil & Punisher wrapping up runs -- plus Miracleman, Marvel Age, Ultimate Invasion, and much more! It's all this and more on an all new X Is For Podcast -- we hope you survive the experience!

Nico, TK, & Kevo bring you a look at major releases from Marvel’s Spring titles as XI4P returns! Join the X-Pack as we take a look at Guardians of the Galaxy #1, X-Men #21, Marvel Voices: Spider-Verse #1 & the Marvel releases from 4/12, kicking off our all-new reading club experience!

It's all this and more on an all new X Is For Podcast -- we hope you survive the experience!

Marvel’s brand and character concepts have grown over the last few decades more than ever, but there’s STILL some series that haven’t happened. Join Nico, TK, & Jason Loo (@Rebel_Loo) as they talk about Jason’s incredible body of work at Marvel, what characters the X-Pack wanna see in animation, and who should be the Bracketeering Champion among Marvel’s UN-Animated Series! It's all this and more on an all new X Is For Podcast -- we hope you survive the experience!

First there was Giant-Size X-Men. Then X-Men 1, and New X-Men 114. And then came House Of X & Powers Of X. But day by day, the era of X-Men John Hickman ushered in, leading to a bolder, braver Marvel Universe - one that seems to be coming to a close. Join the X-Pack as they look at the end of Sins Of Sinister as it gives way to the Fall Of X; watch as Aaron's Avengers Epic slide into McKay's Avengers-Classic; follow as Daredevil & Punisher's sagas continue to sprawl out of control -- plus new Caps, more from Blade, and finales from 17 titles! That doesn't even count the facsimile editions. It's time to catch up on what feels like the end of an era for the Marvel Universe!
