On this episode, we use the popularity of the first season of X-Men 97 as an excuse to tackle a story we’ve long had our eyes on: The Brood Saga from Uncanny X-Men #162-167 by Chris Claremont, Dave Cockrum and Paul Smith, published by Marvel Comics!

The X-Men have been captured by the Brood (a race of nasty winged aliens) and implanted with eggs—when they hatch, the X-Men will transform into superpowered Brood queens!

Can our beloved mutants (and their friend Carol Danvers) escape these evil ETs and save a race of space whales before turning into Brood 2.0? And can this spacefaring superhero saga make landfall on that forbidden planet known as ... The Comics Canon?

In This Episode:

· The 10 basic X-Men plots

· Are convoluted X-Men stories a feature or a bug?

· The influence of Alien on the Brood

· Kitty Pryde is a great character

· Chris Claremont’s Phoenix obsession

· Curt has issues with the New Mutants

· Immortal Hulk Vol. 10: Of Hell and Of Death

· Sugar on Apple TV+

Join us in two weeks as we shift gears to discuss the graphic novel Here by Richard McGuire!
