X Is For Comics: An X-Men Podcast – X-Men ‘98 Relaunch!

Welcome to All New All Different X Is For Comics: An X-Men Podcast! We’ve traveled through the X-Men in the 70s, 80s, and the greater Marvel Universe; made stops in DC, and even the Amalgam and crossover universes. And after all those stories, we’re ready to return home to the place where it all started: the X-Men comics we love! We’re going to jump back into regular coverage of classic X-Men stories, starting with the 1998 relaunch and moving into some of our all time favorite runs, like New X-Men by Morrison, X-Treme X-Men by Claremont, X-Statix by Milligan and Allred, and more. In traditional XI4C fashion, We’ll be covering EVERYTHING from these eras, including side trips into titles like Origin, Secret War, and everything relevant to the X-Experience.
But that’s not all — in addition to these bi-weekly episodes, we’ll be filling in the space between with a complete read of the original Age Of Apocalypse universe through the Epic Collections, take a complete look at the entire original 2099 line, and still bring you special episodes with news, new titles, and the X-Events affecting mutants now. We’re so excited to share this all with you, and to help you follow along, here’s a rundown of our first few weeks:
