    Oh boy, folks - good episode, bad subject matter! The X-Men visit the Microverse, the Micronauts visit the Macroverse, and Kitty gets punched square in the face! Join us as we tackle what might be the worst run of X-comics so far, and as we spit on the graves of the Micronauts! ***CONTENT WARNING*** for discussion of sexual abuse, manipulation, and grooming from 1:25:00-1:30:00 Topics Discussed: These are not good comics. Soft canon. Bill Mantlo’s Christmas miracle! Pilk, blood, and lava. Strange Maine. What the hell is happening in the Microverse, and do we care? The Micronauts are here! We’ve got Starjammers at home. Spellbinder. They’re actually toys. Smoking Wolverine. Have you ever been stabbed by a thumbtack? Rocket-powered centaur. Kitty commands a war. Some really gross stuff.
