Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future. This week we are joined by Scott Koblish who has done just about every job imaginable in the comics industry, although fans of this podcast likely know him as the artist for Deadpool, X-Men '92 and those amazing 60th anniversary of the X-Men covers. We talk about the first comic he ever read - Uncanny X-Men 138 - which is a perfect onramp for anyone wanting to know about the 1960s/1970s X-Men. Also in this episode: Cyclops can fit his life inside a small laundry bag the funeral of Jean Grey! Cyclops longs to be as emotionless as Cerebro Colossus is necessary...for standing in the background or being in the foreground if you need to punch someone the classic moment where Cyclops convinces all of the Sentinels to go fight the sun Kitty Pryde shows up to the first day of school in a b*tch t-shirt What does any of this mean for Scott's future? Well, this episode is one part X-Men Horoscope, one part insider look at how the comics industry works. Tune in for more! Scott Koblish is an American Comic-book Artist who has worked on hundreds of comics for Marvel, Disney, Image, Dark Horse, Valiant, Boom and DC Comics. At Marvel, Scott worked on nearly every title they publish and just listing those titles would provide such a ridiculously long set of words that gazing upon it would make your eyes glaze over and your head hurt if he subjected you to it, but he had a 6-year run on Deadpool, where he co-created Deadpool 2099, so at least something he drew will likely outlive his heirs. At DC, he pencilled and inked Batman: Gotham Nights, DC: Primal Age, Titans: Giant, Aquaman: the Becoming, and Flash Annual 2024 and How To Draw DC, and worked with George Pérez as an inker on Wonder Woman, Worlds' Finest, The Brave And The Bold and Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds and inked Keith Giffen's OMAC run. He is also the author of the book The Many Deaths of Scott Koblish.

We live in the era of AI. The technologies many of us saw for the first time in sci-fi movies are now the technological experiments that will define humanity for generations to come. In some ways, that's an exciting concept. How does nature versus nurture apply to machine learning and what exactly are the boundaries we will set to protect us? Human beings are historically bad at implementing guard rails with our new toys. What happens when they are in the hands of a madman? It's something that has been preoccupying my brain recently and was my own filter reading the aptly named We're Taking Everyone Down With Us, a new six issue spy revenge thriller, sci-fi mystery mini-series from Image Comics and I've got just the person to help me digest its complexities first time show guest Matthew Rosenberg. I've been meaning to catch up with Matthew for some time now as someone who's spent as much time in the music business as I have. We get into how he got GG Allin on the loudspeakers at Comics Pro (truly an amazing accomplishment,) take a moment to express a shared love of the 90s comics classic SCUD The Disposable Assassin, break down the trauma of growing up latchkey kids and how that experience shaped the story, and what's exactly with using Starfish as a term of endearment, that's a mad scientist for you. It's a fun chat. Wu Tang is for the children! We're Taking Everyone Down With Us hits shelves on March 25th. From the publisher MINISERIES PREMIERE THE EXPLOSIVE DOUBLE-SIZED FIRST ISSUE! After her mad-scientist father is killed by the world's greatest spy, 13-year-old Annalise is left all alone in the world. Sort of. Her dead dad's robot bodyguard is following her around for some reason. Now Annalise has a choice: try to lead a normal life for the first time ever…or seek revenge and maybe overthrow the world order in the process. Image Comics proudly presents a journey of regret and retribution, super spies and pseudoscience, growing up and global domination from brilliant artist STEFANO LANDINI (Prodigy, Hellblazer) and okay writer MATTHEW ROSENBERG (WHAT'S THE FURTHEST PLACE FROM HERE?, Uncanny X-Men).
