Wrapping up the second volume of S.W.O.R.D. with an honest-to-goodness "shoe drop"!  Secrets are revealed... which retroactively make much of this series' crossovent interruptions make a lot of sense!

This is a goodie... and, even though this volume's over and done with, we still need to concern ourselves with "What Comes Next"!

While all eyes are on Inferno, the X-Filler train rolls on!

X-Force closes out it's "season" (it will return in April, 2022) with more Surf-Baddies, and... well... not a whole lot more!

Wolverine does his own version of "jumping the shark", so that's something!  At least this one was kinda fun to chat about.  I hope it's just as fun to listen!

We're back to the "grind" - and we're talking that one issue of Phoenix Song: Echo we X-Lapsed folk were all quite excited for!  I mean, just look at all that Krakoan Goodness on the cover!

Well... about that?  Ehh, we'll talk about it.  In any event, I'm having a pretty okay time with this one... despite the lack of X-Stuff.

In addition to chatting up this ish, we're also going to deep-dive on All Thing X in Marvel Free Previews for March, 2022!  I tried to keep my snark in check... you tell me if I succeeded!

Celebrating THREE-HUNDRED Episodes of X-Lapsed... and SIX-YEARS of DAILY content at Chris is on Infinite Earths, by taking a look into the past -- to the very seeds of the era I've dedicated thousands of hours to over the past couple of years - the 2019 House of X/Powers of X Free Preview!

In addition to our hindsight-fueled look at "What's to Come" in the X-Men Universe, I also chat a bit about how we got to where we are... and do a full-on "State of the Union" chatting up all of the books we've covered to this point.

Plus: Great Mailbag and a Stuffed Voice Mailbox!  It's near two-hours of me talking to myself... you don't wanna miss it!

Comix Tawk Boxset, Volume 1

 

Comix Tawk Boxset, Volume One

Chris and Reggie's Comix Tawk, Episodes 1-6
(00:00:00) Episode One: Variant Covers
(00:43:15) Episode Two: Dreaded Deadline Doom
(01:33:49) Episode Three: No Sir, We Don't Like it!
(02:48:40) Episode Four: Completionism, Collecting, and Addiction
(04:01:07) Episode Five: Decompression
(04:50:05) Episode Six: The Four Kinds of Fans

Sharing a compilation of a very special series of episodes. Comix Tawk was Reggie and my Patreon Exclusive program, in which we basically shot the breeze and recorded it. Well, it was a little bit more structured than that... but, it's probably as "pure" Chris and Reggie as you'll find.

Sharing them out here as I don't know if many listeners had the opportunity (or interest) in checking them out before. For this set, we talk about several of the hot-button topics in the comics industry and fandom -- the glut of variant covers, creators treating their deadlines as though they were optional, characters and concepts in comics that we don't really care for, the "myth" of decompression, and a breakdown of the "Four Kinds of Fans" that exist!

I truly hope you enjoy!

Collecting the latest (to this point) Sunday Special Series... wherein I checked back in with one of the X-Books that made me go running for the hills back in 2017!

Generation X (vol.2) starts off... well, kinda clunky... kinda cringey... but, it does manage to turn the corner right before the axe of cancellation fell!  This is why we can't have nice things...

This is a decently long compilation, collecting a dozen episodes... I hope you enjoy!
