Kevin Schaefer, Andy Walsh, and Christian Ashley dive deep into the mutant mayhem of the first three X-Men films in this episode of Systematic Geekology. Their mission? To prep for the upcoming X-Men appearance in Avengers: Doomsday later this year. They kick things off by reminiscing about their first impressions of the original X-Men movie, dissecting its impact on the superhero genre, and sharing their thoughts on how the characters were portrayed. As they move through X2 and The Last Stand, the trio doesn't shy away from addressing the glaring missteps and missed opportunities in the franchise, especially regarding character development and story arcs. Tune in for a thoughtful and witty discussion filled with nostalgia, critiques, and a sprinkle of mutant magic! A deep dive into the nostalgia-inducing world of the first three X-Men movies, this episode of Systematic Geekology sees Kevin Schaefer, Andy Walsh, and Christian Ashley embarking on a journey to recall the pivotal moments that defined a generation of superhero cinema. They kick things off with the original X-Men film from 2000, exploring its groundbreaking approach to comic book adaptations at a time when the genre was still finding its footing in Hollywood. The trio discusses the film's significant themes, like the struggle for acceptance and the moral ambiguity of power, while also taking a critical look at its deviations from the source material. They reminisce about their first viewing experiences and how the movie introduced them to beloved characters like Wolverine, Professor X, and Magneto, all portrayed by a stellar cast that has stood the test of time. As they dissect the film, they touch on the cultural impact it had, setting the stage for a comic book movie renaissance that would follow. A blend of personal anecdotes and insightful commentary makes this segment a must-listen for fans eager to revisit the origins of the X-Men franchise. Transitioning to X2: X-Men United, the discussion shifts to the sequel that many fans consider a hallmark of superhero filmmaking. Kevin, Andy, and Christian delve into how X2 expanded upon its predecessor's foundation, introducing new characters like Nightcrawler and giving existing ones more depth and arcs that felt more balanced. The opening sequence involving Nightcrawler's infiltration of the White House is highlighted as a standout moment, showcasing not only exhilarating action but also the film's thematic depth regarding prejudice and acceptance. The hosts share their thoughts on how the film navigated complex relationships and conflicts among the characters, particularly the uneasy alliance between Xavier and Magneto in the face of a greater threat. The group also reflects on the film's legacy and its role in shaping the narrative landscape of the superhero genre, establishing a standard that many future films would strive to achieve. This segment is filled with fond memories and critical insights, making it a perfect nostalgia trip for longtime fans and newcomers alike. Finally, the episode wraps up with a candid analysis of X-Men: The Last Stand, a film that has garnered mixed reactions over the years. The hosts tackle the ambitious yet flawed attempt to merge the Cure storyline with the iconic Dark Phoenix saga, lamenting the missed opportunities to fully explore each narrative. They discuss how the film's chaotic production led to a disjointed experience, with key characters like Cyclops receiving little to no development. The conversation touches on the film's failings in comparison to its predecessors, particularly in terms of character depth and thematic resonance. Yet amidst the critiques, there are glimmers of appreciation, such as Kelsey Grammer's portrayal of Beast and the potential that the storyline held, had it been executed with more care. As they navigate through the highs and lows of the film, the trio reflects on the lessons learned from the trilogy as a whole, setting the stage for future discussions on the X-Men's cinematic journey. This final segment serves as a reminder of the complexity of adapting beloved source material and the challenges that come with evolving a franchise over time.Takeaways:The podcast dives deep into the first three X-Men movies, examining their cultural impact as they gear up for the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday.Kevin, Andy, and Christian share nostalgic memories of the original X-Men film, highlighting how it shifted the superhero genre landscape back in 2000.They discuss the character dynamics, particularly the complexity of Rogue and her journey, which resonates with themes of identity and acceptance.Listeners learn how the trilogy's writing struggles led to missed opportunities, particularly in portraying the characters' depth and moral complexities..Be sure to check out our merch, find extra content, and become an official member of Systematic Geekology on our website:https://systematic-geekology-shop.fourthwall.com/.Check out our other Marvel episodes:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/fb519d38-2d9b-4f82-b041-81b81613543c.Check out other episodes with Andy:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/c86f7a67-357b-4324-bf95-e42cedb9932a.Listen to every episode with Christian:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/ebf4b064-0672-47dd-b5a3-0fff5f11b54c.Don't miss any of our other episodes with Kevin:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/84fd7d06-cf1f-48e5-b358-09a01c5a6bc9Mentioned in this episode:Get Your SG Merch now!Check out the link to see all of our different t-shirts, backpacks, drinking glasses, pajamas, and more!

In this episode of Geek Freaks, Frank sits down with Lenore Zann, the iconic voice of Rogue, for a conversation that goes far beyond animation. Lenore opens up about what still makes Rogue such a layered and powerful character, how she approached returning for X-Men '97, and why bringing Rogue into Marvel Rivals still feels true to the version fans have loved for decades. The conversation also explores Lenore's memoir A Rogue's Tale, her work in Canadian politics, the fight against environmental racism, and the deeper emotional themes inside Rogue's story that continue to connect with fans. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Welcome and introducing Lenore Zann 00:55 How politics added even more sass to Rogue 01:30 What makes Rogue such a compelling and layered character 03:56 Lenore's acting philosophy and why voice acting starts with acting 06:32 Becoming the voice fans still hear when they read Rogue 07:09 Rogue's trauma, Gambit, Magneto, and the emotional weight of X-Men '97 10:22 Bringing Rogue into Marvel Rivals and adding new personality to the role 12:35 Why Rogue could be one of the best leaders in the X-Men 14:33 Rogue as a role model for women, LGBTQ fans, and anyone feeling othered 18:41 Lenore's political work and helping bring attention to environmental racism 20:49 A Rogue's Tale, audiobooks, mythology, and the power of storytelling 24:41 Lightning round begins with dream roles and future acting goals 26:52 The director's note Lenore will never forget 32:39 The role she wishes more fans would ask about 34:06 New music, film development, and an animated project based on her father's books 35:51 Comic cons, cosplay, and wrapping up with Lenore Key Takeaways: Lenore sees Rogue as powerful because she balances strength, vulnerability, loyalty, and pain. Her approach to voice work is rooted in full performance, not just reading lines. Rogue's decisions in X-Men '97 make more sense when viewed through trauma and grief. Marvel Rivals gave Lenore room to bring even more of her own personality into Rogue. Lenore believes Rogue's greatest strength as a leader is compassion and self-sacrifice. The conversation tied Rogue's story to real-world themes like identity, acceptance, grief, and justice. Lenore's activism and political work show how her values carry beyond the booth and onto a larger stage. A Rogue's Tale adds even more depth to her journey as an artist, survivor, and storyteller. Memorable Quotes: "Voice acting is acting." "I've been living in your head rent free for 30 years." "Some things are deeper than skin." "There ain't no cure for who you are." "Worst case scenario, I can do whatever I need to do to make it work." Call to Action: If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a fellow X-Men fan.

This week on Unscriptify, we're joined by comic writer Cullen Bunn, the mind behind Harrow County and The Sixth Gun, and a man who's written enough Marvel and DC stories to qualify as a minor natural disaster. We talk folklore horror, cursed-object mythology, and why "fear". We also get into Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe as meta-horror, writing Magneto without turning him into a slogan, and the uncomfortable line between “understanding a villain” and accidentally making them persuasive.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! El Proyecto Magneto fue un programa oficial canadiense iniciado en 1950 y dirigido por el ingeniero Wilbert B. Smith, concebido para estudiar el fenómeno OVNI desde una perspectiva técnica y científica dentro del propio aparato gubernamental. No se trató de una iniciativa privada, sino de una investigación respaldada institucionalmente en pleno contexto de la Guerra Fría. Su planteamiento consistía en detectar posibles alteraciones físicas en el entorno, especialmente en los campos magnético y gravitatorio, que pudieran estar asociadas a la presencia de naves de tecnología avanzada. Para ello se instaló una estación instrumental en Shirley’s Bay equipada con dispositivos capaces de registrar anomalías medibles en el espacio aéreo. Con el desarrollo del programa, la investigación no se limitó a la instrumentación. El entorno de Smith quedó vinculado también a testimonios sobre recuperación de materiales anómalos y a afirmaciones relacionadas con contactos y comunicaciones con inteligencias no humanas. Aunque el proyecto fue cancelado oficialmente en 1954, su existencia documentada lo convierte en uno de los primeros intentos gubernamentales de abordar el fenómeno OVNI como una posible realidad tecnológica no terrestre. En este programa anunciamos el ganador del sorteo de THC, una obra ambiciosa y poco habitual: un cómic de 300 páginas realizado por Salvador Larroca junto a Manuel Carballal, y en el que aparecen implicados algunos de los nombres más reconocidos de la divulgación y la investigación del misterio, como Javier Sierra, Jesús Callejo, David Cuevas, José Antonio Caravaca, Carlos Canales, Santiago Camacho, Elena Merino o Fernando López del Oso, y del propio Salvador Larroca. THC no es un cómic convencional ni una novela gráfica de consumo rápido. Es una obra que mezcla ficción y realidad de manera consciente y deliberada, utilizando el lenguaje del cómic para explorar el fenómeno OVNI desde una perspectiva madura, documentada y reflexiva. Los casos, los contextos y muchas de las preguntas que plantea proceden del mundo real, de la investigación ufológica, pero están articulados dentro de un relato narrativo que no pretende pasar por crónica ni por informe, sino por una herramienta para pensar. El guion de Manuel Carballal aporta una base sólida y honesta, apoyada en décadas de investigación, mientras que el dibujo de Salvador Larroca refuerza esa atmósfera sin edulcorar el contenido ni convertirlo en espectáculo vacío. Aquí no se ofrecen respuestas cerradas ni se promete ninguna verdad definitiva: se plantean escenarios, se cruzan hipótesis y se invita al lector a enfrentarse a las zonas más incómodas del fenómeno. Precisamente por ese equilibrio entre relato y realidad, THC encaja con el espíritu de Luces en la Noche: una forma de acercarse al misterio sin simplificarlo, sin trivializarlo y sin tratar al oyente como a un consumidor pasivo. Cuando el misterio se expone con rigor, incluso desde la ficción, se convierte en una herramienta poderosa para comprender mejor lo que aún no sabemos.

President Trump made misogynistic comments to CNN's Kaitlan Collins, Speaker Mike Johnson claims to know more about The Bible than the Pope, and journalists are outraged at Jeff Bezos over mass layoffs in the newsroom at The Washington Post. Stage and screen legend Ian McKellen sits down for an extended conversation with Stephen Colbert about his long career as a performer, reprising his roles as Gandalf and Magneto in upcoming films, the unique joys of live theater, and the Shakespeare role he originated in the 1960s which resonates just as loudly today.

Frank is joined by Joe, aka "Muscles of the Multiverse," to talk Marvel storytelling from the comics page to the MCU screen, then go all-in on Disney+'s Wonder Man after its eight-episode drop. Joe breaks down what he does on YouTube, why he started the Reading the Multiverse podcast, and how he approaches Marvel adaptation trends without expecting (or wanting) a 1-to-1 translation. From there, the episode shifts into a full Wonder Man discussion: why the show works as a character-first story, how it balances comedy with real stakes, and why the Simon Williams and Trevor Slattery dynamic ended up being the surprise engine of the season. The conversation also gets into Simon's anxiety and identity pressure, the Department of Damage Control angle, the "Doorman" detour episode, and what all of this might be setting up for mutants and the next big MCU era. Timestamps and Topics (major beats) 00:00 Intro and guest welcome: Joe "Muscles of the Multiverse" 00:30 Joe's content approach: MCU-to-comics explainers + Reading the Multiverse podcast 02:15 Quick MCU news: Ian McKellen "destroyed New Jersey" comment and what it could imply 05:10 Wonder Man first reactions: why it's landing better than expected 06:40 Character-driven Marvel: Simon's relatability, anxiety, and hiding "who you are" in Hollywood 09:00 Acting as the hook: standout performances, "meta" acting scenes, and why Trevor works now 18:10 Wonder Man powers explained: ionic energy basics and how the MCU might simplify the lore 20:10 Bigger MCU threads: Vision/Wanda possibilities, mutant framing, and Damage Control as a warning sign 30:45 Episode balance talk: comedy vs drama, and why the Doorman episode hits so hard 41:00 What's next for Simon: hero-by-proxy theory, team potential, and final scores 44:40 Disney+ marketing debate: why some shows feel under-pushed and what Marvel can fix 50:35 Recommendations: The Ultimates (Deniz Camp) and revisiting Schitt's Creek 53:10 Joe's upcoming work: Doctor Doom deep cuts, Fantastic Four read-through, and the editing grind Key Takeaways Wonder Man works because it treats Simon Williams like a person first, superhero second. The show's comedy lands because the stakes stay real in the background, especially with Damage Control looming. Trevor Slattery is fully recontextualized here: still funny, but also weirdly wise and essential to Simon's growth. The Doorman episode is a standout swing that doubles as a Hollywood critique and a superhero fatigue commentary. Joe's breakdown of Simon's ionic-energy comic history highlights why Marvel rarely does strict comic-to-screen adaptation. Damage Control and the "quota" vibe point toward a wider MCU theme: institutional fear of powered people. Mutant groundwork is starting to feel less like a sudden switch and more like a slow social shift in-world. Both hosts land at a 9/10, with the only "missing point" being more about feel than a specific flaw. Memorable Quotes "There's usually never a 1 to 1 adaptation." "I didn't know that I needed more Trevor Slattery in my life. But now I do." "Mephisto is not going to be in everything." "It felt like it was made to be for an episodic TV show." "You can't help but root for Simon." Call to Action If you enjoyed this episode, make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss the next review and interview.

Buckle up!- Wonder Man - first 4 episodes review...what a unique show!- An X-Force movie is in the works?- Is the multiverse sorely overused in the MCU? We are fatigued...- Magneto and Sentry will be key players in Avengers: Doomsday!- A Deadpool team-up movie in the works...?- Mr. Sinister and Mojo coming to the big screen?!- What will the MCU look like after Secret Wars?- MUCH MORE!!!
In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we react to a clip of Ian McKellen talking about a stunt setup and joking that he “destroyed New Jersey” while filming Avengers: Doomsday. We unpack what “New Jersey” could mean inside the MCU, from Kamala Khan and the mutant breadcrumb in her series, to WandaVision and the Scarlet Witch family connection from the comics. Then we lay out an alternate theory that this is a different universe entirely, with Cyclops, Sentinels, and Trask Industries vibes, all while Doctor Doom level multiverse chaos could be colliding everything at once. We also touch on the Super Bowl trailer talk and what to realistically expect.00:00 Intro and the “destroyed New Jersey” quote setup00:08 Ian McKellen describes the stunt moment with lifted cars00:44 Theory 1: New Jersey as Kamala Khan and the MCU's mutant thread00:59 Theory 2: WandaVision connections and the Scarlet Witch angle01:18 Theory 3: A non-MCU universe with Cyclops, Sentinels, and Trask Industries01:35 Big-scale battle speculation with Doctor Doom and incursions01:56 Super Bowl trailer expectations and quick news roundup02:15 Wrap upThe “destroyed New Jersey” line gets walked back immediately, but it's still a fun clue to read into.If it's MCU New Jersey, Kamala Khan is the cleanest connection, especially with her mutant tease.WandaVision adds a second strong NJ anchor, and the Scarlet Witch family link could be a story shortcut if they want it.A multiverse angle may fit better than trying to establish too much mutant backstory inside one event movie.The alternate-universe theory points toward classic X-Men visuals: Trask Industries, Sentinels, and a battlefield built for Cyclops and Magneto.Doctor Doom and incursion-style stakes would make “leveling a whole region” feel like a natural escalation.“I did destroy New Jersey the other day. Oh, I perhaps should have said that.”“These were not special effects.”“As one does.”“My personal theory is that it's not actually the 616 Marvel or the MCU Marvel.”If you enjoyed this breakdown, subscribe to Geek Freaks Headlines, leave a review, and share the episode using #GeekFreaks.

Has Sam Raimi quietly changed his tune on Spider-Man 4? On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down new comments that have fans buzzing about a possible Raimi return — and what that could mean for Tobey Maguire and the future of Spider-Man. Plus, brand-new Avengers: Doomsday promo art is making the rounds, revealing a chilling look at Doctor Doom, Magneto's comic-accurate helmet, and more hints at what Marvel may be building toward with its next big event film. We also dive into candid comments from Eternals director Chloé Zhao, who explains why the film simply wasn't a high priority for Marvel at the time — and how that may have impacted its place in the MCU. And finally, we talk Wonder Man. Is he actually a mutant? The showrunner confirms discussions about a possible X-Men connection, opening the door to some big implications for Marvel Television and the MCU going forward. All that and more on today's episode — let us know your thoughts in the comments and make sure you're subscribed for daily movie and TV news!
It all ends here! The Age Of Apocalypse was meant to end here and never come back – the visceral and bloody battles rage on every playing field – and the final struggle between Magneto & Apocalypse hits a VIOLENT end. Prepare for the four crossover characters to make it to the main Marvel Universe; the collapse of the mutant empire; the start of Onslaught; and X-Man's NEXT return to the world of the Age Of Apoc. Join the team as they react to the Age Of Apocalypse Epic Book Four featuring Generation Next 4, X-Calibre 4, X-Man 4 (plus 53 - 54), Factor X 4, Gambit & The X-Ternals 4, Amazing X-Men 4, Weapon X 4, X-Universe 2, X-Men Omega, & X-Men: Prime! It's all this and more on an all new X Is For Comics: An X-Men Podcast!
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes! It may not feel like it, but often the most iconic characters don’t arrive fully formed. Sometimes there are some changes, retcons if you will, that not only stick but become fundamental to the character in a way you can’t imagine them being any different. Like the days when Superman could only leap over tall buildings but not fly, when Magneto was a campy and unsympathetic villain before being reimagined as a Holocaust survivor, when Alfred didn’t even have a moustache! Sometimes a supervillain is given more depth and skills, like Doctor Doom! Sometimes a manga hero goes from a li’l monkey-king boy to a long-lost member of an alien battle race, like Goku! Sometimes Peter Parker is a real asshole until he goes to college, but then we kinda forget he was such an asshole! Remember when the Summers family tree was actually comprehensible, or when Sabrina’s cat Salem was orange and a regular cat, or when Doug Ramsey was just a nerd who read a lot of books? Because we sure do! We dig into tons of examples, discuss the constant of change in comics and what makes these revamps work! But first, a fun and loose quiz that asks: did this character first appear in the comics or elsewhere? Perry White, Batgirl, Firestar, Renee Montoya, Abraham Whistler, and more — are they comics originals, did they first pop up on television or the radio, or maybe a video game? (Spoilers: it won’t be a video game.) Direct Download: MP3

As the road to Doomsday heats up, Joe & Anthony Russo are encouraging viewers to study each of the film's recent teaser trailers in-depth for clues and hidden details — because fans are already decoding potential connections to Avengers: Endgame and other key moments in the MCU narrative. The first four teasers have spotlighted major characters including Chris Evans' Steve Rogers/Captain America, Chris Hemsworth's Thor, the return of X-Men icons Patrick Stewart's Professor X and Ian McKellen's Magneto, and James Marsden's Cyclops, along with glimpses of the Fantastic Four (Vanessa Kirby, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn & Ebon Moss-Bachrach), Letitia Wright's Shuri, Winston Duke's M'Baku, Tenoch Huerta's Namor, and more, prompting theories about emotional beats, timeline clues, and narrative setup for Marvel's next epic event. We also discuss the major Star Wars leadership shakeup, with Kathleen Kennedy stepping down as President of Lucasfilm and Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan stepping into new leadership roles — a shift that could signal a new creative era for the franchise. What details can be pieced together by scrubbing every frame of these teasers — and will the third time be the charm for the Tomb Raider franchise?

This week's BWN was a special one for a few reasons. It marked the first time the show was broadcast live on X and YouTube, sure. But it also saw the long-awaited official debut of the X-Men in the MCU. The latest trailer for Avengers: Doomsday featured familiar characters, including Professor X, Magneto, and Cyclops. The guys break it all down for you, as well as some other big trailers for titles like Unreal Season 2, They Will Kill You, and an interesting UAP/UFO documentary, Starman (no....not a remake of the 1984 sci-fi classic). Meanwhile, the saga with WB, Paramount, and Netflix rolls onward as WB rejected an 8th attempt from Paramount for a hostile buyout, and a very prominent director drew a line in the sand against Netflix. Is Rey finally ready to admit that a stand-alone Blade movie is dead? Are you ready for AI to help get you through your favorite PlayStation games when you get stuck? Is the Batman 2 cast ridiculously stacked with the addition of Sebastian Stan (possibly as Harvey Dent)? And who won the play-in battles for the #16 seeds in our Battle Royal Madness tournament?

It's time for another Mind Gap Podcast! This week, Doug and Justin are back after a few weeks of rest over the holidays. Justin shares a few gym experiences with Doug including someone rocking a Christian podcast at full volume in the locker room and someone who decided to get up close and personal with the dumbbell rack. The dorks recount the boardgames they played while Doug and his family visited Justin and Beth in Grand Rapids and then Doug poses a hypothetical question to Justin that involves a risky ocean challenge for a large sum of money. The guys then move into their main topic of how they have begun to see the villain's perspective of things as they've gotten older. Some of the villains the nerds seem to side with include Magneto, Killmonger, Thanos, The Joker, along with an uncomfortable amount of others. Things are wrapped up with a new game called Patch Notes: Real Life Edition, where Justin reads out patch notes for real life and Doug has to decide if they're good or if they should be scrapped as garbage. Check out our YouTube channel where we livestream our new podcast episodes every Tuesday at 8pmCT and our video game stream every Saturday at 8pmCT.

The guys are back to react to the latest teaser trailer for Avengers Doomsday that gives us our first look at the return of the X-Men. Find out why the guys think that showcasing Cyclops isn't merely just to show a cool shot but to show that Cyclops will be a central figure this time around, whether we could see Master Mold/Sentinels when the next X-Men films come around, the weirdness of the ongoing leaks of the Avengers Doomsday teasers, and more. Plus, the guys dive into the final episode of Stranger Things, were they plot holes or just story choices? Was the lack of a definitve more of a detriment or a cool homage to the shows DnD roots? The guys discuss those aspects, what worked for them, what was lackluster for them, and more. Then before they close out the show they get some surprising breaking news about The Batman Part 2. 2026 is almost here and here at Comicast a new year usually means a new predictions issue of the podcast but this year we want to know what questions you may have for Jong and Michael.

Power of X-Men: The Greatest Comic Book Podcast in All of the Multiverse!
Hang on to your seats, familia! A super-size 2 hour episode breaking down our top 10 of Marvel Legends in 2025...unfiltered!!!!
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.
