Read transcriptListen up, mutation enthusiasts and multi-platform adventurers, because this week on Play Comics we're strapping on our Kevlar suits and diving straight into the bewildering, beast-infested, cross-console chaos of X-Men: The Official Game! We're talking about the 2006 game that launched on practically every system known to mankind (GBA, GameCube, Nintendo DS, PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. Seriously, did they forget a platform?), which based the story nominally on the third X-Men film from Fox. You know, the one that showed us what happens when Professor Xavier and Magneto finally decided to outsource their beef settlement to a video game developer. This particular romp through Marvel's merry mutant universe was brought to you by the folks who looked at a film featuring Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Iceman and thought, “What if we made this game SLIGHTLY different on each platform?” It's like they were challenged to see just how elastic the definition of ‘the same game' could be, and frankly, the results are beautifully inconsistent. The story was co-written by Chris Claremont (yes, THAT Chris Claremont) and Zak Penn, and it featured voice acting from the actual film cast, which means you got Hugh Jackman's growl in your living room, your handheld, and probably also your neighbors' living rooms at 2 AM. Joining us to make sense of this portable and stationary pandemonium is none other than Alex Zalben from Comic Book Club, a weekly live talk show about comics that's been running since 2006, performed at every major comic convention you can think of, written up in the New York Times more than once, and hosted literally hundreds of guests with more swagger than most podcasts muster in a lifetime. Alex is a writer, editor, and podcaster who knows his way around both four-color storytelling and video game adaptations, making him the perfect guide to help us determine whether this cross-generational, cross-console adventure managed to capture what makes the X-Men actually work, or if it just made us wish we could teleport away from our screens. So sync up your Danger Room protocols, pick your favorite handheld or home console, and get ready for an episode that's guaranteed to be more chaotic than a Sentinel factory explosion and infinitely more confusing than trying to figure out why THIS game exists on THAT console! Learn such things as: Who thought it was a good idea to put this on so many consoles? Is it possible to get that team feeling when you're playing solo? Is it better to look at this game as a sequel to the 2nd movie, or a prequel to the 3rd movie? And so much more! You can find Alex on YouTube @ComicBookClub and of course Comic Book Club Live.

With Star Wars and X-Men dominating fandom once again, Who Would Win: Unleashed delivers the duel you'll never see on screen but won't stop thinking about. Repping Darth Maul is Eric Holmes, who turns the double-bladed assassin into a tactical nightmare. He's not just a Force-wielding blur of red and black—he's a walking death sentence. From precognitive counters to weaponized terrain manipulation, Eric makes the case that Maul's not here to duel—he's here to dismantle. This isn't just lightsaber flair. This is battlefield brutality with Sith precision.On the other side, James Gavsie brings in Colossus like a sledgehammer made of Soviet steel. We're talking near-invulnerable metal skin, superhuman strength, and combat instincts honed in both the Danger Room and real war zones. But James doesn't stop at raw power—he breaks down how Colossus turns endurance into dominance, absorbing Maul's speed and flipping it into punishing momentum. It's dark side rage versus stoic might. Tactical finesse versus tank-mode brawler. And when the sparks fly? You know the only way to find out who wins… is to press play.And when you have such an epic battle you need an equally epic judge to weigh both sides of the battle and decide Who Would Win! Making their first appearance as judge is Andrew Birch, one of the most intriguing producers and project managers you've ever come across!Strap in—this is Who Would Win: UNLEASHED at its finest.Email - whowouldwinunleashed@gmail.comYou can now support us on Patreon at Patreon.com/WhoWouldWinShowCheck out the Who Would Win Unleashed YouTube Channel!Join our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/whowouldwinshowFollow us on X/Twitter: @jamesgavsie @whowouldwinshowFollow us on IG and Threads: @WhoWouldWinShow @jamesgavsie @theericholmesCheck out the Who Would Win Merch Store:https://saywerd.co/collections/who-whould-win-merchSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/who-would-win/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/who-would-win/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/who-would-win/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Adams's creative and energetic artwork enlivens these issues, in which Scott Summers' brother, Alex, gets a cool costume to go with his new codename, Havok, and Larry Trask revives his late father's mutant-hunting robots, the Sentinels! And before they can catch their breath, the X-Men find themselves facing off against the energy-draining half-man, half-Pteranodon known as … Sauron! Did Larry Trask program these Sentinels with extra snark? Was Karl Lykos bitten by a radioactive Pteranodon? And can our young mutant heroes survive that Danger Room training session known as … The Comics Canon? In This Episode: · Cyclops uses an unfortunate slur · A highly sketchy use of Cerebro · What if Karl Lykos had been reading Portnoy's Complaint? · X-Men #62-63: Strangers … in a Savage Land! and War in the World Below! · The new Fantastic Four movie · Cow Tools Daily on Bluesky Join us in two weeks as we revisit the birth of the Phoenix with a look at X-Men #101, 104, 107 and 108!
