Welcome back, Trade-Waiters!

For our third compilation/anthology episode – we’re taking a look at the difficult second issues of each of our DoX launch books, in which they all sorta go their own way. I gotta wonder, while incredibly convenient… was this a satisfying read if you were following along via the anthology trades?

Anyways, in the wake of the apparent assassination last time out, Krakoa is… well, I would say “high alert”, but nah, they’re all still dancing around that bonfire like nothing even happened.

The Summers’s’s’s have an outing that introduces the Creepy Summoner, Betsy is Captain Britain, Call Me Kate gets coronated, the New Mutants annoy the Starjammers, Quentin Quire smells like Axe Bodyspray, and Fallen Angels… exists.

If these compilation episodes are the first time you’re diving into the X-Lapsed Universe – I’d love to hear from you!
