Lecture 1: Introduction to Krakoa

from Mutant Studies 101

Welcome Back Students! For today's lecture, your esteemed professors take a deep dive into a seminal text of The X-Men and a foundational reading of this podcast: Jonathan Hickman's 2019 dual-comic series House of X/Powers of X. Topics in this episode include: How this comic plays with both the form and content of a superhero story, Moira McTaggert's lives and how this was the most radical change Hickman made, mutantkind as community, transhumanism, why we love this book so much to the point it makes us cry, and and more! Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of genocide. You can follow Mutant Studies 101 on Twitter @Mutant101POD and your hosts at @beakerbarnes and @Dean_of_X. As always we would like to thank Ollie (@olliephresh) for their music and Hayden (@mcuwaititi) for her art.

The truth is each emergency call is too unique to teach the right response to every situation. We need to go beyond algorithmic thinking and understand deeper principles, the WHY behind the algorithm. When every decision counts you want to rely on a framework that will guide you when things don’t make sense. Loud & Clear: EMS Guiding Principles is your resource to build that framework. Through discussions with experts, review of evidence-based best practices, and real-world case studies we teach you one step past what you learned in paramedic school. But all of this advanced education is connected back to the guiding principles that answer the question- “at the end of the day, what actually matters to the patient I have in front of me?” Our mission is to elevate your Explicit Weird Studies SpectreVision Radio Professor Phil Ford and writer J.
