Matt and Mike Read Comics Episode 15: X-Men Dark Phoenix

Episode 15 of Matt and Mike Read Comics goes into one of the most legendary stories in all of comics lore - the Dark Phoenix saga as featured in Uncanny X-Men. Most people in Matt’s generation will remember first seeing this story played out in the original 90’s animated show on Fox Kids, but the original story was published in comics easily 15 years earlier. It was the first time in comics where a hero of Jean Grey’s stature and tenure was truly and entirely killed. It was a landmark moment in comics that set the stage for years to come.
