We’re back for more classic X-Men! Listen in as Tyler and I re-explore the classic Claremont material, with Fariha reading it FOR THE FIRST TIME!

In this episode, we discuss Uncanny X-Men #135-136. The Dark Phoenix has taken over Jean Grey’s body and mind, and she’s HUNGRY – but, can the X-Men stop her when she makes a brief return to Earth to say goodbye to her final human connections? We cover Cyclops’ first psychic dance battle, Phoenix’s approximate sense of morality, how classic Sagas and modern Events are different, and more.

Plus, we dig into a pair of Dazzler stories in Classic X-Men issues – #37-38.

This episode contains full spoilers for House of X and Powers of X and a few comments about the Dawn of X status quo that follows it.

It’s This Week in X for 12 May, 2021!

Join Peter, Fariha, Tyler, & Harry as we discuss Children of the Atom (2021) #3 and X-Factor (2020) #9 – for X-Corp #1, check out our previous episode.

Children of the Atom #3 continues to split our panel in new and different ways. We discussed sudden space ships, self-imposed responsibilities, sour dinner parties, and taking off our X-glasses when deciding the value of this story.

For X-Factor #9, we dig into psychic inception and Morrigan’s goals. Then we spiral into a lengthy argument over a single data page and yell at Marvel for cancelling our favorite comic.

Spoiler warning – we discuss everything about X-Men up to and including comics from this week, as well as other current events in the Marvel Universe.

It’s a special single-issue episode of This Week in X, the first of two episodes for the week of 12 May 2021.

Join Peter, Fariha, Tyler, & Harry as we dig into X-Corp (2021) #1. We had a mega-sized discussion for this giant-size debut, tackling each of the board members of this uncanny new corporation: Monet, Madrox, Trinary, & Angel.

Plus, we get a little bit heated about horses, UN sanctions, and the big HQ “launch.”

Spoiler warning – we discuss everything about X-Men up to and including comics from this week, as well as other current events in the Marvel Universe.

It’s This Week in X for 5 May, 2021!

Join Peter, Fariha, & Tyler as we discuss Marauders (2019) #20, Hellions (2020 #11, and X-Men – Curse of the Man-Thing (2021).

Marauders #20 was Storm’s issue, but we were fascinated by Emma’s parts of it. We tackle our favorite Storm memories, but also dive deeply into what makes Emma tick and her (at first begrudging, but now enduring) respect for Ororo & Kitty.

In Hellions #11, we discuss Kwannon’s self-sufficiency, Arcade’s lack of loyalty, the Mastermind family, Sinister’s duplicitous plot (and why it matters A LOT), and more.

For X-Men – Curse of the Man-Thing we hold a “BUY OR SKIP” lightning round and discuss the finer points of Magik’s status as a lord of a little slice of hell.

Spoiler warning – we discuss everything about X-Men up to and including comics from this week, as well as other current events in the Marvel Universe.
