This is a big one kids! We dive into what is arguably one of the most important books in X-Men history. Today we are talking about Marvel Graphic Novel Number Five, God Loves, Man Kills. The imagery and storytelling in this book help redefine the future of the X-Men in a way that is still being felt today. This one has all kinds of trigger warnings, and adult content, so much like late night Cinem...

Enjoy! Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseof...

Crack that book and listen in to what we love and hate. I hear it's a pretty think line betwe...

Welcome Home Merry Mutant Lovers! We have a banger for a today! Uncle Chris recruits his editor's husband (nepotism much, Mr. Claremont?) To draw a book that crosses over two of the biggest teams at the time! For Episode 103, we give you: X-Men and New Teen Titans! There is so much Jack Kirby love in this book you can practically hear him calling Stan Lee a prick while chomping his cigar and punch...

We have a pair of bangers for you this week, as we dig deep into Uncanny X-Men 163 & 164. There is so much Broody goodness that it can't be contained.

Man, how about episode 100 y'all? Both of them! We dug deep into Wolverine's head, and don't remember a thing. Which is good because neither does he! BUT! We are on to other things, namely More Uncanny goodness. First up is X-Men 161. Magneto and Professor X steal a time machine from Doc Brown and travel back in time to punch Nazis! Well, maybe this is just a flashback/retcon/ filler issue! But st...

Howdy Y'all! Welcome back in to this here ol' book club! Pull up some grits and let's sink our teeth into some possum pie!    This week on the pod we have a pair of Fare. Marvel Fanfare that is! First up is Marvel Fanfare 3, guest starring Spider-Man and the X-Men! Spider-Man is mainly here for the sex appeal, and doesn't do a whole lot! The X-Men and Sauron do all the heavy lifting! That's right!...

Although I think our good buddy Chris C may have watched Cat People a few too many times before sitting down to pen this one, it is g...

In this weeks' episode of the House of X Book Club, we jump into some action packed action of the highest order!     First off, we get into X-Men 158, where Carol Danvers kick the leg out of the leg of all of the Starjammers! Then she, Wolverine, and Storm break into the Pentagon to steal the Declaration of Independence! No! They break in so they can erase the X-Men from the government databanks!...

Some of the voice cast are interesting choices, but at least...

X-Men in Space! It doesn't have quite the ring that Pigs does, but we make due with what we have, because what we have is still really cool!    We have a great double header for you! First up, we dive into the space faring adventures of our beloved X-Men. In number 157, Kitty tries on more outfits than Wolverine has back hairs! Also, Scott and Corsair join the rest of the Starjammers in repairing...

First up is Uncanny X-Men 155. Guest starring Tigra! And the Brood! Corsair is here too, but I don't think anyone on the...

Welcome back Blue Retrievers, for another very special episode of the HoXBC pod! Why is it special you may ask? Because we are doing another Documentary review!

Another week, another episode of the House of X Book Club killing you hearing if you listen at high decibels. Fun fact, Drew laughs all the way through every episode, but it is so high pitched only dogs and xenomorphs can hear it.  Anyway, we have a couple of great books for you this week! First up we dive into X-Men 151. In typical 80s fashion, Kitty's parents decide that she will no longer be at...
