This week we have the amazing cosplay artist Nikki Gnomer aka @kolabearcosplay on the show to talk about a bonkers issue where the time-displaced 1960s teenage X-Men fight an alternate reality Madelyne Pryor and her Hex Men (no that is not a typo this is your brand new favorite team).

For our 75th episode we hang with current Uncanny X-Men artist Luciano Vecchio! He discusses his trajectory to becoming the artist he is today, how he designed the fashion for the recent Hellfire Vigil, and his birth month and year issue which is the NEW MUTANTS Graphic Novel y'all!

This week we have Matt and Allison Parent on the show to cover the X-Men issue where the Red Queen (not Jean Grey it’s the other one, no no not Madelyne Pryor, the other one the psychic ghost one) has stolen the lock of Jean's hair that Wolverine just happens to keep in his bedroom and is rushing off to pull a hermit crab by making her corpse her new body.

Current X-writer Tim Seeley is on the pod talking about the Astonishing X-Men Infinity comic and Rogue: Savage Land! Also: the X-Men are on vacation which is code for teaming up with leprechauns and fighting ambiguously gay super villains.

With us this week is comic writer/artist Karen Czap aka Karen Charm who was born during the celebration of the 100th issue of the All-New All-Different team and isht. is. wild.

This week Lodro climbs inside the brain of the incredible comic writer Tini Howard to explore how something so fantastic and unique as Marian Heretic (her new creator owned comic out THIS WEEK - go buy it) came to be.

This week we have the amazing cosplayer/musical theater actor Olivia DeFilippo on the show to talk about a really f-ing weird issue. Olivia was born the month Cerebro's X-Men debuted. You remember them right? No? That's because no one does. But today we do.

With us this week is one of the artists on the current X-Men title, Netho Diaz! We talk about his career trajectory in becoming a comic book artist and the intense pressure of creating 18 titles a year for this incredible run. 

This week on the show we have Sara Century, host of the Best Issue Ever podcast and co-writer for The Forgotten Five comic for an episode where Professor X dies...or does he? Spoiler: Brood

With us this week are Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, the hivemind on a victory lap having just completed writing NYX and GIANT SIZE X-MEN. And it's a lot (a lot) of fun.

This week on the show we have dear friend Dr. Scott DeGeest to talk about AI sentinels taking over humanity, Mastermind, and Human Torch Con. We dive into his birth month and year issue (Uncanny X-Men 175) where everyone thinks Cyclops is Dark Phoenix but don't worry...he had ten minutes to plan in response PLUS a belt calculator so he'll be okay.

This week on the pod we have Kitty Pryde (or at least the iconic voice actor thereof): Maggie Blue O'Hara. Fans of X-Men Evolution know her but you're about to get to know her REALLY well. 

With us today are the co-hosts of the X-Wife Podcast, Alicia and Justin Wilder. We dive into their wedding anniversary issue - a heist issue known as X-Men Red 6 - as well as how they got together, and even see how they rate as a couple with our brand-new segment: the X-Newlywed Games!

This week we have the extremely talented Murewa Ayodele on the show to talk about everything current and upcoming in the STORM solo series he's writing! We get into the winding path of his becoming a comic writer, tears and all, and what motivated him to write Storm as powerfully as he is right now (spoiler: it's anger).

This week we have special guest Clarke Whitehead, co-host of the fantastic Homo Superior podcast whose parents had the good sense to birth him on the date of the release of Kitty's Fairy Tale. Yep, what better bedtime story for a terrified 9 year-old to receive than to hear about how Dark Phoenix ate a sun and the adults around her were powerless to stop her?

This week on the pod we get inker extraordinaire John Livesay! John's inked the comics you love for over 30 years and we get into his process and advice for anyone hoping to break into the business.

This week we have the delightful co-hosts of the Escape the Mojoverse podcast, Allison and Matt Parent, discussing a brilliant X-Men comic from the 90s. We talk about the origin story of Escape the Mojoverse, the best seasons of RuPaul and our pitches for X-Men movies.

This week we have podcast host and author Daryl Richard Lawrence on the show to discuss X-Factor Files and his newest book True North: A Complete Reference Guide and Analysis of Alpha Flight's First Volume. We discuss what it's like to host a podcast with your spouse, why anyone should care about Alpha Flight and his birth month and year issue (Uncanny X-Men 202) where Rachel Grey fights the Beyonder!

This week, Top Banana/Group Editor for the X‑Men line Tom Breevort joins us for an exploration of his birth month and year X-Men issue. Tom discusses his meteoric rise in the ranks at Marvel from intern to editor and VP, why Tom told them they DIDN'T want him editing X-Men, and a look at his wish list for future X-projects. We cover X-Men 28 which Tom fights with Lodro about because he claims this is NOT his birth month and year issue.

This week we have the dynamic duo - co-hosts of the Power of X-Men podcast Mike Flinkman and Paul Florez! We dive into their lifelong friendship (spoiler: action figures are involved) and Flinkman's crazy birth month and year issue where Kulan Gath has transformed NYC and so heroes are villains! Tentacles! Spider-Man is hung like Jesus! This is just madness.
