For the first time in two years... it's FALLEN ANGELS day here at the channel - and, if history is any indication, today's the episode even FEWER people will download and listen to!

Ah well... whattayagonnado?  Today we're compiling the story whose only value is that it accidentally (?) led to something pretty interesting in Hellions!  The art's interesting too... so there's that!

Anyhoo, it's three and a half hours of Fallen Angels... which is probably three hours and fifteen minutes longer than anyone else on the planet spent talking about it... possibly even combined!

As news begins to trickle in regarding the upcoming INFERNO event, The Collected X-Lapsed is inadvertently relevant (well, as relevant as it can be) - as this compilation episode contains the "shoe-drop" issue of X-Men wherein we all learn of Mystique's designs on our Island Nation!  Also: Kitty goes for an x-tended swim in Marauders, Fallen Angels mercifully ends, and Beast gets even nastier over in X-Force!

All that, as well as the always x-cellent Mailbags and the normal amounts of my marblemouthed nonsense!  If you're just now discovering X-Lapsed via these "collected editions", please let me know!

We're at our traditional "penultimate chapter" issues of each of our Dawn of X launch titles... however, only one of the six seems to be playing along!

Fallen Angels gets ready to wrap up by finally putting together their team (who we'll never see work together again after this series) - X-Men decides to ignore Fallen Angels completely by having X-23 fall back into her pre-FA character and costume... before the other series even ends -  Forge acts a chucklehead in X-Force - we resume our New Mutants space story (never thought I'd be so happy to see Deathbird!), your humble host becomes more accustomed to the new take on Bobby Drake, and Excalibur begins it's "Have I missed an issue?" meme!

All that, plus the always X-Cellent Mailbags!  If you are only now discovering X-Lapsed through these Collected Editions - please, reach out and let me know your thoughts!

The X-Books are still on somewhat shaky ground here - they're all going their own way!

X-Force does a thing, X-Men sees the movers and shakers of Krakoa take their seat at the Global Table, Rictor begins studying under Ayyyy in Excalibur, New Mutants takes aim at some scarily safe targets while at the farm (did YOU know that Big Pharma was bad?  Betcha didn't!), Marauders pays off the Taipei story from the first ish... and Fallen Angels continues being a collection of sheets bound together by two staples!

In Soviet Russia, trade wait for you!

Hey everybody, we're back fo(u)r another compilation episode... covering the third issues of the Dawn of X, Wave One launch titles - and it feels like, for some of these, the bloom is coming off the ol' rose.

Hordeculture?  The New Mutants Farm story?  Fallen Angels still being a thing?

The tonal shift here into attempts at comedy, a weird fill-in arc, and poetic waxing might be too severe for your humble host to take!

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!

Wassup, Trade-Waiters!  The Collected X-Lapsed continues its journey through the post-HoX/PoX era with a look at the first volume of the Dawn of X Anthology Collections.  These anthologies are a fantastic way to keep up-to-date on all things (current year) X, and are something your humble host gives Marvel two thumbs up for coming up with (keep in mind, my thumbs up and a dollar might buy you a cuppa coffee at McDonalds).

Today we're diving deep on all of the Dawn of X, Wave One, Number Ones... I hope we survive the x-perience!

If you're new to X-Lapsed, and are using these collected editions to dip your toe in - please reach out, I'd love to hear from you!

What is that blinding light?  It's as though we're at the end of a seemingly endless tunnel!  That's right, friends... today, it ends.  After this episode of X-Lapsed, we never have to (knock on wood) discuss another issue of Fallen Angels... ever again.

Crank up the orchestral soundtrack for your favorite Final Fantasy game, because we're about to see Psylocke battling a bona fide god... for, like a page or two.  Lotsa build-up... for very little payoff, but we'll do our best to have fun talking about it.

Also: A lookback at the entire Fallen Angels miniseries, including taking a peek at its surprisingly solid sales figures... and another X-Tended Mailbag segment, featuring missives from a pair of listeners who just finished HoXPoX for the first time!

It's the penultimate issue of Fallen Angels... so, what's say we actually start-and-finish rounding out our team, yeah?

Today I talk about how unpleasant a character Kwannon is, and question how anyone ever thought she could carry her own back-up feature in a random issue of X-Men Unlimited much less an actual miniseries.  At least there's only one to go...

Y'ever hear the one about the butterfly?  No?  Well, you're going to... a lot.

Today we wrap up the first wave of Dawn of X #1's with, perhaps the oddball of the group - Fallen Angels #1 by Bryan Hill and Szymon Kudranski.  Who said we only needed on Psylocke?  Probably the same person who said we only need one Psyocke-led book!  Will this one be near as interesting as Excalibur?  Let's find out together...

Also: I remember rate the Dawn of X Wave One #1's in the order I most enjoyed them, and some great listener feedback with some varying opinions on the HoX/PoX/DoX landscape!
