With decades upon decades of comic book history why do some characters age and others don't? That's what we would like to know. Stasia and Producer James dig deep into the timeline of the Marvel Universe while the last minute of the credits plays.
Professor X was not born needing a wheelchair, but he should always have one on standby. Producer James and Stasia go through all the times that Professor X has been able to walk and all of the times that he has been forced back into the chair.
Let's talk about the Black King of the Hellfire Club, the one and only Sebastian Shaw. Ruthless businessman and horrible father, Stasia lays out who he is and what he's been up to. Bonus character rundown of Riptide who has always been a lackey.
Let's take a look at Moira MacTaggart, a character important enough to include in the movies, but not important enough to use correctly. Major Spoilers for the Krakoan era from beginning to end.
Banshee is one of the older X-Men both in when he was introduced and his canonical age. He seems to have a string of bad luck that needs to be dug into. Bonus discussion about Leprechauns.
Beast has a way with the ladies and Stasia is here to lay out all of his major relationships. Producer James also gives an update to the current appearance of Beast in a Post-Krakoan comic book landscape.
Now it's time to focus on the younger Summers brother, Havok. He's been around long enough to have a lot happen to him. Let's dig into his messy relationships with loved ones and family.
Hey! Who's that devil looking guy in First Class? Is that the actual Devil? Yes and no and more importantly no. Let's cover Azazel, the man/demon/mutant who was Nightcrawler's baby daddy.
Before he dies in the movie we need to discuss the only X-Men character that can survive anything. Let's give Darwin the character highlight he deserves. This also intersects with the third Summers brother. Justice for Darwin!!!
Angel Salvadore is a bit different in the comics and part of that is due to Beak, her husband and father to her children. From the pages of New X-Men through to the current pages of X-Men let's discuss what they've been through.
What's the deal with Magneto's helmet? First Class seems to be putting a lot of pomp and circumstance around it. Let's dig into it. And while we are at it how about the concept of secret identities in the X-Men universe.
The White Queen herself Emma Frost deserves a full episode. From her early Massachusetts Academy days all the way to her marriage to Iron Man. Let's cover it all.
The most exclusive club in the Marvel Universe is run by the most powerful mutants. What is the Hellfire Club all about both in and out of the comics? This movie also asks us to discuss what makes a mutant a mutant.
New season and new movie. To discuss the beginning of X-Men: First Class why not start with the comic book run titled "First Class". To even out the good times it is paired with the retelling of Magneto's experiences during WWII and the Holocaust with "Magneto: Testament". Disclaimer: Due to the more mature nature of Magneto: Testament the themes of the latter half of the episode do concern the atrocities of the time as discussed through the lens of the story.
Wrapping up X-Men Origins: Wolverine with a highlight the most famous version of Deadpool that's only a head. From Marvel Zombies to the Deadpool Corps Stasia and Producer James cover the Merc with a Mouth from Universe-2149 to end the fourth movie in the series.
Stasia and Producer James discuss as much Silver Fox that's fit to print. Turns out that's not a whole lot, so let's talk about Empath instead. The member of the Hellions that can manipulate the emotions of those around him. Close enough.
Since we are introduced to "Weapon XI" aka "Deadpool" now is as good as ever to discuss the Weapon Plus program. Starting with Weapon I all the way to Weapon Infinity most numbers are retconned to fit into Wolverine's origins. Time to rapid fire through a lot of characters.
It's about time for us to discuss Stasia's favorite thief, Remy LeBeau a.k.a. Gambit. Buckle up for only a fraction of what this suave, explosive, Rogue-Loving X-Man has in his backstory.
One of the X-Men's oldest villains is the Blob. Stasia and Producer James rundown what this massive foe is all about. With a brief side note about John Wraith.
The body count increases in these ten minutes of X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Let's give a highlight to Agent Zero a.k.a. Maverick. But more importantly, the question is answered "Who is Alpha Flight?" Bundle up as we trek up to Canada to discuss that country's greatest superhero team.
