Description

Back in the day, we got together and read and talked about comic books, mainly the X-Men. Decades later, and not a lot has changed. We started at the very beginning, and are working our way through the X-Men from number one!
143 Episodes
Reverse
   Just when you thought it was safe to return to the pod, There's a rumble from the darkest corners of space and the world will never be the same! Or, you know, someone had too much Taco Bell.    But what an episode! We have Eric the Red, Nightcrawler the Blue, and a Widow the Black!     First up, we dive into X-Men 97. Eric the Red returns, and fight Cyclops, which is a little awkward. One, because that outfit leaves NOTHING to the imagination, and two, Scott Summers' multiple personalities are just tiring.  Our second read is Champions number three? Best thing about this one? It's the end of the story! I wonder if that weird harness makes Hercules' nipples chaff? Listen in and maybe we will find out!   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ New Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/ Leave a voice message to be played on the show! 510-397-9673

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 Cinemax, Listener discretion is advised.  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

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 punching a Nazi! The Phoenix is back, and she's buddied up with Darkseid to turn Earth into lava. Can the X-Men and the New Teen Titans save the day? Listen in and find out!

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 still Nazi punching is happening! How many Nazis did you punch during WWII? Or after? Keep racking up those numbers! Next up is X-Men 162! We are going to focus in on Wolverine. Again. Sorry, it's just how the cards fell. Much less in the wolverine department next week, I swear! Dive in with us while we continue hurtling through space in a giant undead whale while giant flying scorpions try to Rock You Like a Hurricane! It's a thrill a minute, or at LEAST every 90 seconds! Enjoy!

   Welcome back Book Clubbers! We are deeply entrenched in X-Country, and Episode 100 is right around the corner! Are you ready for the madcap adventures that are headed your way? I don't think so Blue Retrievers!    First up today we have X-Men 159 and... Vampires! 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 great! Spooky, brooding, and art by a master in his early days, Bill Sienkiewicz! Every time I see this book it reminds me we are closing in on the Demon Bear Saga.    Next up is X-Men 160. Shower time! And another first appearance in an X-Book, but this time it is in the book, as Limbo shows up for the first time. Some other folks do to, but you will have to listen in for that!

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! But they run into trouble as some old enemies are there as well! What are they up to, and do the X-Men stand a chance at getting away?    Next up is Spider-Man 230. After almost murdering Madame Web, Juggernaut decides to take a walk. He wanders around like a halfling on a quest to smelt unwanted jewelry. Lots of walking and talking to trees. Some real revelations are made amongst the crew, but you will have to listen to find out what they are!  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/
Another Saturday, and another episode of The House of X Book Club arrives! This week is very special, as the gang is mostly together live and in person! And we have another watch along we hope you will join us for!    Today, we are watching the Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends episode titled The X-Men Adventure! It features the X-Men! Some of the voice cast are interesting choices, but at least they are able to make it clear that Charles is evil. Consistency is important kids. Here is a link to a version of the video, it is also available on Disney Plus. That is where we watched so if you haven't cancelled, watch it there! https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xbjpq Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/houseofx_bookclub/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092707100579 Email: houseofxbookclub@gmail.com Webbage:https://houseofxbookclub.podbean.com/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/
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 the Starjammer. Also Professor X Probes himself for a change, and finds a big surprise!    Next up is Amazing Spider-Man 229, and Spider-Man makes a mess of things, with the help of his new pal Juggernaut! Those two wacky kids get up to all kinds of shenanigans, and almost kill Madame Web! Plus they have ice cream!
