Escape the Mojoverse: An X-Men Comics Podcast

Krakoa was for broken people, or at least that's what they told themselves. We read the incredible Hellions about a group of weird little freaks just trying to find a place in paradise. I don't have a joke here. It's just one of the best X-Men comics without qualification!

Oh, do we have a treat for you! We're talking about one of the absolute funniest X-Men stories "Spider-Man and the X-Men" so we HAD to get one of the funniest guys around to talk about it. We're joined by Jordan Morris (Bubble, Youth Group, Pop's Chock'lit Shoppe of Horrors) to discuss Mr. Spider-Man's brief stint in academia. Later Jordan gives us the scoop on his part of the anthologies "Web of Spiderverse: New Blood" and "Godzilla vs LA"

Spider-man and the X-Men (2014-2015) Written by Elliott Kalan, Art by Marco Failla, R.B. Silva and Diogo Saito, Colored by Ian Herring, Letters by VC’s Clayton Cowles. Covers by Nick Bradshaw, Stacey Lee, and Ian Herring

It's love month and we're celebrating by going back to the island that reignited (and created) a passion for the X-Men for so many people. Krakoa was for lovers, but we say it still IS. This week we're talking X-Factor by Leah Williams and David Baldeon: Krakoa's investigative squad of queer weirdos living in some a big obelisk called the Boneyard. It's also a detective procedural!
