House of X #1/Powers of X #1

Welcome to the Study, listeners! In this inaugural episode, we briefly introduce ourselves before setting out on our X-Men journey by discussing the first issues of both House of X and Powers of X, the beginning of an interlocked miniseries created by writer Jonathan Hickman and published in 2019, marking a big relaunch for the franchise. Among other things, we discuss how mutants have had a rough time, the not-so-subtle political maneuvers of Magneto, and sick robot designs. Whether you're a new reader or an old veteran, we hope you enjoy listening! If you want to contact us, you can find Sergio on Twitter @fireblend (now also on cohost) and Kris @sawneeks. If you find Tim, let either of us know we're offering a reward. Follow the podcast on Twitter and cohost (@StudyOfX on both)! Podcast art is by Matthew Nielsen who can be found @NuclearJackal on Twitter. He did an incredible job and we couldn't be happier. NEXT WEEK: House of X #2 & Powers of X #2
