Episode Notes

At the start of the 1970s crumbling relationships with Iran led to shocks in the global energy market, shooting up prices at the pump while the X-Men meandered aimlessly with Marvel not having a clue what to do with them. This is not commentary on current events.

Episode Notes

Marvel, many times, will tell you that nothing will ever be the same again, when many times, not only will it be the same, but you will forget that they ever said that things would be different. This is that but with character.

Episode Notes

If I only could, I'd make a deal with God. Have Paul Smith draw less Morlocks. It would fix a lot of things, make a bit more sense, but then we would miss these stories.

Sing it, it tracks.

Episode Notes

Some have called us the Cheech & Chong of X-Men podcasts. I've never seen those movies but I can say that if one of them is constantly suffering from bits that only the other person thinks is funny, then the descriptions fits. This is the weed number episode.
