Rachel & Miles Review the X-Men, Episode 53

Week of September 9, 2015:

In which if you don’t know by now whether you want to read Giant-Size Little Marvel AvX, nothing we say is likely to sway you much one way or the other; Rachel’s favorite Cyclops is notably absent; and you should totally come see us at Rose City Comic Con!

REVIEWED:

  • *Giant-Size Little Marvel AvX #4

*Pick of the week, but comes by it honest.

Rachel & Miles Review the X-Men, Episode 52

Week of September 2, 2015:

Week of August 26, 2015:

In which Katie Moody saves the day; Magneto ends with a bang; E Is for Extinction continues to be one of the most interesting books to come out of Battleworld; and you should really read Hank Johnson, Agent of Hydra.

Rachel & Miles Review the X-Men, Episode 49

Week of August 12, 2015

In which Esad Ribic is the best at Doom; Star-Lord and Kitty Pryde is the best at fun; and you are probably underestimating the importance of colorists.

REVIEWED:

  • Secret Wars #5 (00:58)
  • *Star-Lord and Kitty Pryde #2 (05:16)
  • Year of Future Past #4 (08:08)

*Pick of the Week (12:45)

NOTE: To the best of our knowledge, no actual murder has occurred in the Murder Basement. It’s just kind of generally terrifying.

Rachel Reviews the X-Men, Episode 48

Week of August 5, 2015:

In which we introduce Castle Sexy Dracula and (briefly) lose Miles to a scheduling S.N.A.F.U.; the kids are pretty into Giant-Size Little Marvel AvX; we’re pretty into X-Men ’92; and whether or not you’re pretty into Age of Apocalypse will probably depend on when you started reading X-Men.

REVIEWED:

  • Giant-Size Little Marvel AvX #3 (00:59)
  • *X-Men ’92 Infinite Comic #6 (2:43)
  • Age of Apocalypse #2 (5:16)

Rachel & Miles Review the X-men, Episode 47

Rachel & Miles Review the X-Men, Episode 46

Week of July 15, 2015

In which Apocalypse has always been pretty silly; Cyclops is probably not actually the ‘bad boy’ of the X-Men; Years of Future Past continues to rock; and a lot of Wolverines fight.

  • *Years of Future Past #3 (3:04)
  • Secret Wars: Battleworld #3 (07:32)

Miles Reviews the X-Men, Episode 45

Week of July 8, 2015:

In which Cassandra Nova is the stuff of nightmares, Inferno remains stellar, Age of Apocalypse is a blast from the past, and everything is late because Rachel is in Alaska (sorry!).

  • *Inferno #3 (3:22)
  • X-Men ’92 Infinite Comic #4 (5:28)

Rachel & Miles Review the X-Men, Episode 43

Week of June 24, 2015 –

In which the fact that we’re biased doesn’t mean we’re not also right; we disagree about which Silent Hill game makes the best metaphor for E is for Extinction; and Miles probably does not actually have the Legacy Virus.

REVIEWED:

  • Uncanny Avengers #5 (3:01)
  • *X-Men ’92 Infinite Comic #3 (5:17)
  • E Is for Extinction #1 (7:18)

*Pick of the Week (13:20)
