Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future. This week we have the extremely talented comic writer Alyssa Wong on the show to talk about their Psylocke, Deadpool and many, many other series. Lodro blows their mind by revealing that they have created over 97 characters for Marvel. We talk about their writing process, Shinobi Shaw hanging out in bathtubs, and a bonkers Shadow King issue that came out during their birth month and year, Uncanny X-Men 278. Also in this episode: - The Shadow King is big - Shinobi Shaw is a sh*tty f*ckboy with daddy issues - Don't bend your enemies to your will; it never goes well for you - Thieves should always dress in bright gold armor...so as to be inconspicuous - Rogue makes out with the Shadow King - Gambit versus Multiple Man = a great fight - Nightcrawler‘s sister girlfriend is back All this plus we ask a question of you, dear listener: What did Moira do in the bedroom that made Banshee turn into a prude?
