BIRD BOYS

This week we talk about solo vacations, retirement, lingerie colors, birdwatching... oh and the X-MEN!  Join us as we look back at X-Factor 96-98, X-Force 27 and 28, and X-Force Annual 2. We then deep dive episodes 3, 4 and 5 of the X-Men '97 animated series.   After a quick look at solicitations, we turn down the lights for a little X-Men roleplay, and finish up as always with a Fastball Special.

Year One.    Podcast begins. 

Year 10. We barely record.

Year 100.  The illegitimate children of Count Nefaria take over the show. 

Year 1000. Still the greatest X-Men podcast ever.
