from Crushing Comics · host Crushing Comics
It's This Week in X for 24 February, 2021! Join Peter, Tyler, Fariha, & Harry as we discuss Wolverine (2020) #10, New Mutants (2019) #16, and X-Men (2019) #18. New Mutants #16 was packed with plot, but not everyone on our panel was in love with that density We talked about a surprising return Otherworld, body-swapping gone bad, a certain mutant's long-lost progeny, bullying the bullies, and how everyone in this book needs therapy (but some are going about it all wrong). Plus, a lengthy a side about the marriage of art and lettering! In Wolverine #10, we had as much to say about Adam Kubert's striking layout choices as we did about Maverick's rejection of one new allegiance (or was it two?) in favor of sticking with a reliable crew he can control. In, in X-Men #18 it's been a year of anticipation for us and 537 years for Wolverine, Synch, & Darwin in The Vault... and this issue just explores DAY ONE! We discuss human and mutant machines, repetition, mutant power breakthroughs, repetition, and more! Plus, some quick callout of X-appearances in King in Black: Return of the Valkyries, Marvel Voices Legacy, and Black Panther. Spoiler warning - we discuss everything about X-Men up to and including comics from this week, as well as other current events in the Marvel Universe.
