The title says it all today kids! It’s Episode 100! Featuring Claremont, Miller, Wolverine, and a bear that sometimes looks like a dog! We recorded this one live at Sword and Board in Ukiah, or as we like to call it, Mendo East. It was fun, it was exciting, it was the best there is at what it does! https://swordandboard.net/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Welcome in once again, all our oldest, dearest friends! We have another very special episode of the House of X Book Club as Rowan sits down for a chat with Fred Noland! An amazing artist working in animation, and comics of all kinds! The duo sits down to talk about Fred’s work, his life in a religious family, his life in the punk scene, and of course the X-Men! Give a listen and drop a note Fred Noland web site: http://www.frednoland.com/ Fred on the ’Gram: https://www.instagram.com/frednoland/?hl=en All our stuff: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Howdy Y’all! Welcome back in to this here ol’ book club! Pull up some grits and let’s sink our teeth into some possum pie!    This week on the pod we have a pair of Fare. Marvel Fanfare that is! First up is Marvel Fanfare 3, guest starring Spider-Man and the X-Men! Spider-Man is mainly here for the sex appeal, and doesn’t do a whole lot! The X-Men and Sauron do all the heavy lifting! That’s right! Your favorite mad scientist prehistoric bird man is back and ready to make life interesting!    Next up is Marvel Fanfare 4. Because let’s face it, jumping to number 42 would have made NO SENSE!!! Anyway, Angel and Sauron sky wrestle, which kinda looks like a pelican scissoring with a lizard. Maybe that’s why Sauron is so angry, he gets relegated to the Angel enemies list, and believe me, no one wants to be there, not even Owl Man! This one has devolved X-Men, Revolved X-Men, and so much more! You will have to listen in to find out how our mighty menagerie of merry mutants handle this one!

Welcome back Book Clubbers! We are deeply entrenched in X-Country, and Episode 100 is right around the corner! Are you ready for the madcap adventures that are headed your way? I don’t think so Blue Retrievers!    First up today we have X-Men 159 and... Vampires! Although I think our good buddy Chris C may have watched Cat People a few too many times before sitting down to pen this one, it is great! Spooky, brooding, and art by a master in his early days, Bill Sienkiewicz! Every time I see this book it reminds me we are closing in on the Demon Bear Saga.    Next up is X-Men 160. Shower time! And another first appearance in an X-Book, but this time it is in the book, as Limbo shows up for the first time. Some other folks do to, but you will have to listen in for that!

In this weeks’ episode of the House of X Book Club, we jump into some action packed action of the highest order!     First off, we get into X-Men 158, where Carol Danvers kick the leg out of the leg of all of the Starjammers! Then she, Wolverine, and Storm break into the Pentagon to steal the Declaration of Independence! No! They break in so they can erase the X-Men from the government databanks! But they run into trouble as some old enemies are there as well! What are they up to, and do the X-Men stand a chance at getting away?    Next up is Spider-Man 230. After almost murdering Madame Web, Juggernaut decides to take a walk. He wanders around like a halfling on a quest to smelt unwanted jewelry. Lots of walking and talking to trees. Some real revelations are made amongst the crew, but you will have to listen to find out what they are!  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Another Saturday, and another episode of The House of X Book Club arrives! This week is very special, as the gang is mostly together live and in person! And we have another watch along we hope you will join us for!    Today, we are watching the Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends episode titled The X-Men Adventure! It features the X-Men! Some of the voice cast are interesting choices, but at least they are able to make it clear that Charles is evil. Consistency is important kids. Here is a link to a version of the video, it is also available on Disney Plus. That is where we watched so if you haven’t cancelled, watch it there! https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xbjpq Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

X-Men in Space! It doesn’t have quite the ring that Pigs does, but we make due with what we have, because what we have is still really cool!    We have a great double header for you! First up, we dive into the space faring adventures of our beloved X-Men. In number 157, Kitty tries on more outfits than Wolverine has back hairs! Also, Scott and Corsair join the rest of the Starjammers in repairing the Starjammer. Also Professor X Probes himself for a change, and finds a big surprise!    Next up is Amazing Spider-Man 229, and Spider-Man makes a mess of things, with the help of his new pal Juggernaut! Those two wacky kids get up to all kinds of shenanigans, and almost kill Madame Web! Plus they have ice cream!

Did you know that there was once a superhero named The Red Bee and he fought Nazis using bees? I feel like the beekeepers of the world need to step up and give us some mighty bee justice in modern times!    We have another great show for you! Two great X-Books in one great pod! First up is Uncanny X-Men 155. Guest starring Tigra! And the Brood! Corsair is here too, but I don’t think anyone on the Quite Council would say he was a guest. Or a star. Irritating twat waffle would be the term most likely used. Also, murder happens!    Next up is X-Men 156. An X-Man dies, but gets better, like they tend to do. Also, Corsair tries to connect with Scott, but he’s still being mopey. There were only two Summers brothers at this time, and it may have been better that way. The gene pool starts to get really shallow once three and four roll into town. Also, Charles’ bird girlfriend makes royal decrees and steals his salmon. Life in space can get really weird. Listen in to see who’s eye Lillandra tries to peck out! Or does she? Only one way to find out! Listen on Book Clubbers!

Welcome back Blue Retrievers, for another very special episode of the HoXBC pod! Why is it special you may ask? Because we are doing another Documentary review! We got together live and in the flesh baby, and decided to talk about the documentary from the DVD release of the X-Men movie The Last Stand! This was arguably better than X3, so hop on the joy bus and don’t forget your ticket!

Welcome back Book Clubbers! We hope summer has treated you well. Sorry your trash cans melted again this year Arizona. What is that, like, 147 years in a row now? We have a great couple of books here for you. First up is Uncanny 153. Kitty Pryde tells a bedtime story to Illyana, so she can go to sleep. This one’s got everything: Wolverine as the Tasmanian Devil, Storm trapped in a bottle, Kurt as a cute and cuddly stuffed animal (please ignore the sexual harassment!) And Professor X as a good guy. You know, lots of fiction! Next up is X-Men 154. With the return of the Starjammers! Well, the sleazy one at least. Corsair shows up and drops the dad bomb on Scott, then tries to drop a bomb on a power plant to kill some abstract alien bug things! The rest of the Starjammers are noticeably absent, and the crew is that much sadder for it. Plus, Charles is still in a coma, or asleep, or plotting to lock his brother in the sex dungeon again. Even when he’s out, he’s up to something...

Another week, another episode of the House of X Book Club killing you hearing if you listen at high decibels. Fun fact, Drew laughs all the way through every episode, but it is so high pitched only dogs and xenomorphs can hear it.  Anyway, we have a couple of great books for you this week! First up we dive into X-Men 151. In typical 80s fashion, Kitty’s parents decide that she will no longer be attending Chucks school. and will instead be heading over to the Massachusetts Academy, headed up by none other than Emma Frost. So there’s like 8% less bondage and mind wiping than the The School for Gifted Youngsters. So like any good 80s movie, wackiness ensues! This one has everything; body swapping, explosive cabinets, and Colossus flirts with a CHILD! Next up is Uncanny X-Men 152, X Harder! The Hellfire break in continues, literally. The brain swappin’ gun has Storm and Emma Frost in each other’s bodies, like some Freaky Friday fever dream Professor X has on a Saturday night after eating too much chili. Everyone bags on the Hellfire Guard, And we find out everything that happens in this same comic ten years from now is al Wolverine’s fault. Also, Kitty and Storm as Emma come to terms with their relationship and EmmaStorm learns her how to B&E telepathically! This issue has a more breaking and entering than any other X-Book to date, so listen in to find out all the details!

Welcome in once again Book Clubbers, to another great addition of Bagged and Boarded! This week we sit down with Anthony Trevino, the creative mind behind the longest running wrestling promotion in San Jose, UGWA! We talk about how UGWA got started, how it moved from the backyard to the Ritz, and how the X-Men influenced it all! Video Games, Comic Boos, Pro Wrestling and Famke Janssen, what more could you ask for?  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Welcome back, Children of Krakoa, as we dig into another two exciting books about those Men (and Women) of X!    First up, Uncanny X-Men Annual #5. We start out with the Fantastic Four checking into a lady with a laser gun, and things get weird from there. You’ve got your invisible aliens, Invisible Girls, and Storm having dreams of interdimensional Civil War. And then the sixth page really gets cooking! This one packs it in so strap down tight or she may throw ya!    Next up is Avengers annual #10 and the circus is in town! At least that is what the cover is trying to sell. The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants stop by, Carol Danvers is mind controlled into leaving our world and shacking up with her son in another dimension, and the Avengers just let her mind controlled self do it. It’s a convoluted tale to be sure, but it’s also the first appearance of Rogue, and you can tell she’s up to no good because her haircut is TERRIBLE!!! This emotional roller coaster of a book almost made Roger and Drew come to virtual blows so make sure and listen to the very end!

Welcome back kids! Are you having fun? Is the season of the year when you are listening to this giving you weather to your liking? Is the upcoming/recently occurred holiday going to be a good time? How about that sports team that just did a thing?!? We have another banger of an ep for ya! First up Bizarre Adventures #27. Where we read the first and last stories, but skip Iceman, because, why wouldn’t you? Jean Grey and Nightcrawler feature, and we get to see some great Dave Cockrum show what his lines can really do in this black and white magazine! Next up is X-Men #150, and boy is it something! This issue has everything! Storm about to cut a bitch, Cyclops deputy leadering his way into another lassie’s’ pants, Banshee getting angry that I stole his word for women, and Magneto on a Cthulhu terror island wiping out an X-Man! All this and Carol Danvers too! Listen in, won’t you?  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Did you know that dogs fart almost 20 times a day? And cats? Once or twice. So that smell in your bedroom? NOT THE CAT!!! So stop blaming them!  Welcome home sweet students of X, we missed you. We really did. But, we shall forgive your wanderings and even reward you with a pair of X-Issues that will make your return all the more sweet! First up, we have Uncanny X-Men 148. Storm, Stevie, and Spider-Woman take Kitty to a strip club, because what else do you do with a pre-teen on a Sunday after church, am I right? Okay, maybe it’s a Saturday. And maybe it’s actually a Dazzler concert. Also Angel has a shit fit because he thinks Wolverine is a psycho. AND, Scott manages to swim a good distance without being able to see, and visits his old pal Magneto in hos spiffy new eldritch horror retirement home! Next up is X-Men 149. Magneto uses his powers to neutralize Scott’s optic blasts, because magnetism! And the rest of the team pay a visit to our old pal Gary, better known to you X-Fans as Garrok! What sort of crazy hijinks has our old pal Gary been up to since the last time we stopped by to say hi? You will have to listen in to find out!  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Welcome in Blue Retrievers, we hope you brought your imago-spheres! Because today we want to take you on a special trip! No, not to the back room at Mr. Horton’s bicycle shop, but to a world where Jean Grey did not die! First up in What If 27, we talk about just that. Although technically Jean Grey does die, and then the Phoenix wears her meat sack around and CONTINUES TO COMMIT HORRIBLE ACTS OF TERROR!!! And she gets more time with Scott, so win-win! Next up is X-Men 147! We are back at Doom’s castle! Storm is a robot, Arcade is annoying, and Angel has to poop on newspaper from a bar high in the air! All this, plus Professor X begins to hatch his next evil scheme! It doesn’t say that explicitly, but at this point we should all just assume, right?

Man, I don’t know about you, but when the summer months hit, all I want to do is sit around in my underpants and read comics. Unfortunately, my HR manager and I had to have a talk after that happened. So now I am on a ”Written Warning”. I tried to tell them I could not read, but the comics gave me away! Uptight co-workers! Anyway, we have a pair of bangers for ya, as we first dive into Spider Woman #38. And this one is a literal banger, as Colossus bangs a big hole in a ship, and then our old pal Juggernaut bangs another hole to go after the man of metal. All that, and the police are sexist to Spider-Woman. Was anyone surprised by that? Anyone at all? All right then let’s move on. Next up we have X-Men 146, and we once again enter the least murderiest of worlds, Murderworld! Watch as no one dies! Gasp in horror as no one endures even the slightest of injuries! Look away as everyone escapes completely unharmed! You WILL NOT LEAVE THIS PLACE ANY DIFFERENT!!! Doom is here too! Join us for the recap kids!

All right Blue Retrievers, this one is going to be quick and dirty. We decided to play to Roger’s strengths! First up we have what may be the darkest issue of the X-Men to date, as we start with X-Men 144. This one has lots of trigger warnings about terminal illness, as well as decisions one make in times of desperation. Please be warned that this issue contains a good deal of mature subject matter, so make sure you check this one out before letting the kids read it. And maybe have a discussion once it’s all done! Next up we swing to the other end of the spectrum with X-Men 145! Arcade is kidnapped by Doom, and no one cares. Well, one person cares, but she goes about asking for assistance in a really shitty way, and manages to pis everyone off. She clearly lost her copy of ”ow to Win Friends and Influence People”! Who am I talking about? Why Is Doom making a move for Storm? And why do we have to deal with Arcade again? You will have to listen in to find out!

It’s the 5th of July. The bald eagles have been shot at with fireworks, giving them babies to shoot fireworks at next year. At least that is my understanding of how the ’Murican traditions work. Hopefully everyone has all their fingers and toes on this the spookiest day of summer, the 5th of JULY!!! But not all is covered in gunpower and cheap beer, our X-Men are covered in spider webs and demon goo! So clearly they are much better off! First up we head to the X-mansion, where Katherine Pryde has been left to her own devices in Uncanny 143. She and a demon that Scott left alive (way to go, deputy leader!) play a really weird game of tag, and break some stuff. She then tries her hand at making it the turkey donner for the X-Team by cooking it in a fairly unique way, and no, it’s not the deep fat fried turkey that put a hole in your uncle’s roof last year! Next up we take a gander at Spider-Woman 37, where the Marvel community get to have an intervention with Black Tom about his decades of questionable hair product choices. We don’t know where he buys his pomade, but all bets are the grey stuff under Juggernauts toenails! Plus, this is also the debut of another Mighty Marvel Mutant, so hooray for the population boom! Thanks for listening in X-Fans, and we hope that Captain America left automatic weapons and meth under your patriot tree, Excelsior!  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Welcome home True Believers! We have some amazing stuff for you! Get your toes in a pre-curled position, and let’s dig into some delicious X-Goodness! First up we have X-Men 142, where The Days of Future Past story concludes. This story has been told a thousand times since, but this is the first, and dare I say, best?!? Next up is Dazzler number one! Shall we say a palette cleanser from the darkens of those Future Days of the Past? I think we shall. Spider-Man, Enchantress, the X-Men, and Beast all guest star in the book! And it’s only 22 pages, so you know a lot of stuff is going down! Enjoy kids, and don’t forget to drink your Crystal Pepsi!
