Back in the summer of 1996, after years of teases, the X-traitor was finally revealed, in one of the biggest crossover events in X-Men history....ONSLAUGHT! Now, 19 years later, in this super-sized episode, Trev & Joe are ready to discuss this moment, even at the cost of their own sanity. Listen as the guys bravely attempt to summarize and analyze one of the craziest events in X-history, as well as its even crazier fallout, the infamous Heroes Reborn. Even if you're not that interested in the story, maybe you'll enjoy listening to the two lose their minds as they struggle to adequately recap a gigantic, and at times baffling story, that even today sends shivers down the spines of many comic readers.

This week, Trev & Joe discuss Marvel's alleged plans to permanently send all mutants to outer space following this summer's big Secret Wars event. Interesting move, or potential franchise destroyer? Plus, the guys struggle to answer a listener question about what as-yet unexplored powers they would like to see added to the X-books, confirming how hard it really is to write comics. Also, some discussion about Caliban being confirmed for X-Men: Apocalypse, and speculation about who will be the villain in the third (and final??) Wolverine movie. And, for no good reason, an X-Men themed podcast kicks off with much discussion about David Letterman's retirement and the current Late Night TV landscape.

In the second Fan Commentary episode, Trev & Joe provide a running commentary for Bryan Singer's 2003 sequel, the very loose "God Loves, Man Kills" adaptation, X2: X-MEN UNITED. Babyface Wolverine, inexplicably scarred Nightcrawler, accent-less Storm, and useless-as-all-hell Cyclops - all are discussed, as we revisit this much beloved entry in the franchise and see if it still holds up today. NOTE: Again, while it might be fun to watch the movie along with the guys during this commentary, it is certainly not a requirement.

This week, Trev & Joe review Avengers: Age of Ultron, specifically focusing (or at least TRYING to specifically focus) on Aaron Taylor-Johnson's portrayal of Quicksilver. How accurate is it to the comics, and how does it stack up against Evan Peters' Quicksilver, from X-Men: Days of Future Past? But first, the guys discuss the recent big reveal regarding Iceman in the comics, Olivia Munn's casting as Psylocke, and the first '80s-riffic character photos from X-Men: Apocalypse.

This week, Trev & Joe discuss mutant powers = which powers would they consider necessary to form an effective X-Men team, and which powers would be most and least desirable in real life? But first, discussion of the addition of Jubilee to the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse, and Hugh Jackman's time as Wolverine beginning to wind down. Also, the guys answer some listener-submitted X-tra Stupid Questions of the Week, covering which mutants would be best suited to appear in a Latin American soap opera, and which X-Men smell the worst and the best.

Back in 1995, comic fans were treated to one of the biggest events in X-Men history, Age of Apocalypse. In this week's super-sized episode, Trev & Joe celebrate the mega-event's twentieth anniversary by taking a look back at various titles that made up the story, and share their own personal lists for Best & Worst Characters, Best & Worst Costume Redesigns, Coolest Covers, and Favorite Moments. But first, the guys pitch hypothetical HBO documentaries about the X-Men, and try to cast the characters of Saved by the Bell as X-Men.

Did you know Bryan Singer's "X-Men" was NOT the first X-Universe movie? Perhaps rightfully forgotten, Marvel's Merry Mutants made their live-action debut back in 1996, in the FOX TV movie "Generation X," an adaptation of the then mega-popular comic series about the younger generation of future X-Men. We watched it, so you don't have to, and this week we have an in-depth discussion about this unsuccessful (on so many levels) attempt at capturing the X-Universe on film. But first, we ponder Ben Hardy's potential role in "X:Men: Apocalypse," and debut a new segment, X-Tra Stupid Question of the Week, this time speculating on which X-Man would make the best retail manager. Plus, we get ready for our upcoming Age of Apocalypse episode, by looking at the lead-in story, Legion Quest.

In this special episode, Trev & Joe provide a running audio commentary for Bryan Singer's X-Men (2000), X-amining the film's highlights and lowlights. Wolverine's hair, Rogue's re-invention, Storm's questionable accent, and Magneto's clacking balls...all this and more are discussed, incuding the casting decisions that could have been, and how the movie holds up to today's glut of superhero films. NOTE: While it might be fun to watch the movie along with the guys during this commentary, it is certainly not a requirement.

In this mini-episode, Trev & Joe discuss some of the recent casting news regarding X-Men: Apocalypse and Deadpool, giving their opinions on the actors officially cast, and speculating on the characters mentioned in the leaked Deadpool casting sheet. But first, a brief (and completely off-topic) rememberance of the 2010 Conan/Leno Late Night War, and opinions on which X-Man would make the best Saturday Night Live host.

Feb 23, 2015

In this episode, Trev and Joe make a blatant grab for higher ratings by taking an in-depth look at the most popular X-character of all time, Wolverine, and examining (or X-amining) the differences between his comic and film incarnations. But first, some discussion about Rose Byrne returning to the role of Moira MacTaggert in X-Men: Apocalypse, and the recent announcement that writer Brian Michael Bendis is soon leaving the X-books. Also, in another edition of X-Crement, Joe shares his confusion about Professor Xavier's seemingly unlimited budget.

In the first Days of Future Podcast Mini-Episode, Trev and Joe take a look at the failed 1989 animated X-Men pilot, Pryde of the X-Men. Stan Lee's mutant racism, Australian Wolverine's inexplicable anger, and the shocking connection between X-Men and Rugrats...it's all discussed here! 

Feb 9, 2015

In this episode, Trev and Joe take an in-depth and head-scratching look at one of the oddest X-characters of all time: Madelyne Pryor, the Jean Grey clone. But first, the guys ponder why all-powerful mutants would choose to wear bright spandex costumes, and briefly discuss Night of the Sentinels, the pilot episode of the classic 1992 X-Men animated series. Plus, in the first edition of the new regular segment, X-Crement, Trev shares his frustration and confusion with Mystique's shape-shifting powers.

In this episode, Trev & Joe discuss news and casting rumors regarding the three upcoming X-films of 2016...a conversation which threatens to spin off into a brand new Channing Tatum themed podcast. Next, they and their listeners build their own dream X-team rosters. Then, they ponder how young is "too young" to be an X-Man, while also trying to figure out why Jubilee was never as beloved as Kitty Pryde. And finally, the guys tackle one of the universe's eternal questions: which X-Men are the individual characters of the NBC sitcom Friends most like?
