Art by David Wynne. Wanna buy the original? Drop him a line! In which you are probably more familiar with this show than Jay and Miles are; Paul Smith makes good art; the Shadow King is so extra that his narration has its own narration; Evil Sexy Moira is a fashion queen; there are absolutely no circumstances in which it is appropriate to use the phrase “fist-o-rama”; Legion gets possessed; and we know absolutely nothing about Pokémon.   X-PLAINED: Universes where people are other people What Miles thought of Thor: Ragnorok (spoiler-free) The Muir Island Saga (Part 1) Uncanny X-Men #278-279 X-Factor #69 Teflon continuity Our (lack of) favorite episodes of Jay & Miles X-Plain the X-Men The Jay & Miles X-Plain the X-Men wiki An alternate timeline Corpse telepathy A diabolical plan, sort of Topicality Theft Sci-Fi Warlord Moira MacTaggert Improbable aerodynamics The greatest thing The death of Peter Nicholas The uncanny genital valley Interesting ways to expand Cyclops’s powers X-Pokémon NEXT EPISODE: The Muir Island Saga concludes!
