Mark Bassett: The Professor X Magneto Nazi Buddy Comedy - Uncanny X-Men 161

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 are joined by Mark Bassett, critically acclaimed cellist and long-time friend of the host (who also arranged our theme music)! Professor X is dying (again) so what does he dream about? Meeting the big love of his life: Magneto. Join us in Israel after the Holocaust where things are just awful for regular human Gabrielle Haller. Nazis want to use her as a map for getting Hitler's gold because...sure. It's Gold Rush! A Nazi buddy comedy for Professor X and Magneto with lots of wacky hijinx and the origination of their ideological differences. What does this issue mean for Mark's future? Tune in to find out!
