At one point The X-Men were the most popular comics Marvel was publishing. They were cool, they pushed the boundaries, and the crossed over into more media than just comic books. We spend some time talking about the glory days of the X-Men (pre-2000) and reminiscing about one of our favorite eras.

We had a fun convo looking back at 2022, you should listen to it. It's like an awards show without the celebrities, production quality, acceptance speeches, and basically everything else that makes an awards show. But we do have categories and winners.

We've all been there - the collection is testing the limits of the boxes, you probably need to add a couple more long boxes to make it all fit comfortably. To trim or not to trim?

If you're an aging nerd like us, it seems all the big media companies are after your wallet and baiting the hook with nostalgia driven shows, movies, comics, and games. Some good, some bad..let's talk about!
