“To me, My X-Men.” Finally, we are doing an X-Men episode. The pièce de résistance of our episode is the deep-dive into the X-Men's realm, charting the character arcs and thematic depth from the beloved '90s animation to the present and continuing with X-Men 97. With an affectionate—yet critically sharp—rant on "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," we pull no punches when it comes to studio interference and the missed opportunities of this contentious movie. Whether you're a die-hard X-Men devotee or a newcomer to the mutant saga, our discussion on character development and narrative consequences in this iconic franchise promises to be nothing short of exhilarating.
Before that we talk all the news of the week including a real first look at the Black Panther & Captain America game: 1943: Rise of Hydra. We talk a couple trailers and then discuss the DCU potentially bringing in the Teen Titans. Timecodes are provided if you want to skip around to your topic of choice!
