House of X Book Club

   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

Welcome back to another exciting conversation with one of comics greatest! This week Rob is joined on the good Old Zoom meeting with the magnificent Dan Brereton!

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!

Thanks for coming back for the second of two patrs to our 100th episode! We have candy and cookies! Actually Drew ate all the cookies and now his tummy hurts... Anyway, we are diving back in with the second half of the Wolverine mini series! Will Mariko forsake her family and give her love to Wolverine? Will Yukio forsake Mariko's family and give her, you know what never mind, listen in and find out how things wind up. Spoiler, Logan does not end up opening the first Canadian Tuxedo shop in Nara, but the story is still good!

The title says it all today kids! It's Episode 100! Featuring Claremont, Miller, Wolverine, and a bear that sometimes looks like a dog! We recorded this one live at Sword and Board in Ukiah, or as we like to call it, Mendo East. It was fun, it was exciting, it was the best there is at what it does! https://swordandboard.net/ 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/

   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!

Did you know that there was once a superhero named The Red Bee and he fought Nazis using bees? I feel like the beekeepers of the world need to step up and give us some mighty bee justice in modern times!    We have another great show for you! Two great X-Books in one great pod! 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 Quite Council would say he was a guest. Or a star. Irritating twat waffle would be the term most likely used. Also, murder happens!    Next up is X-Men 156. An X-Man dies, but gets better, like they tend to do. Also, Corsair tries to connect with Scott, but he's still being mopey. There were only two Summers brothers at this time, and it may have been better that way. The gene pool starts to get really shallow once three and four roll into town. Also, Charles' bird girlfriend makes royal decrees and steals his salmon. Life in space can get really weird. Listen in to see who's eye Lillandra tries to peck out! Or does she? Only one way to find out! Listen on Book Clubbers!

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! We got together live and in the flesh baby, and decided to talk about the documentary from the DVD release of the X-Men movie The Last Stand! This was arguably better than X3, so hop on the joy bus and don't forget your ticket!

Welcome back Book Clubbers! We hope summer has treated you well. Sorry your trash cans melted again this year Arizona. What is that, like, 147 years in a row now? We have a great couple of books here for you. First up is Uncanny 153. Kitty Pryde tells a bedtime story to Illyana, so she can go to sleep. This one's got everything: Wolverine as the Tasmanian Devil, Storm trapped in a bottle, Kurt as a cute and cuddly stuffed animal (please ignore the sexual harassment!) And Professor X as a good guy. You know, lots of fiction! Next up is X-Men 154. With the return of the Starjammers! Well, the sleazy one at least. Corsair shows up and drops the dad bomb on Scott, then tries to drop a bomb on a power plant to kill some abstract alien bug things! The rest of the Starjammers are noticeably absent, and the crew is that much sadder for it. Plus, Charles is still in a coma, or asleep, or plotting to lock his brother in the sex dungeon again. Even when he's out, he's up to something...

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 attending Chucks school. and will instead be heading over to the Massachusetts Academy, headed up by none other than Emma Frost. So there's like 8% less bondage and mind wiping than the The School for Gifted Youngsters. So like any good 80s movie, wackiness ensues! This one has everything; body swapping, explosive cabinets, and Colossus flirts with a CHILD! Next up is Uncanny X-Men 152, X Harder! The Hellfire break in continues, literally. The brain swappin' gun has Storm and Emma Frost in each other's bodies, like some Freaky Friday fever dream Professor X has on a Saturday night after eating too much chili. Everyone bags on the Hellfire Guard, And we find out everything that happens in this same comic ten years from now is al Wolverine's fault. Also, Kitty and Storm as Emma come to terms with their relationship and EmmaStorm learns her how to B&E telepathically! This issue has a more breaking and entering than any other X-Book to date, so listen in to find out all the details!

Welcome in once again Book Clubbers, to another great addition of Bagged and Boarded! This week we sit down with Anthony Trevino, the creative mind behind the longest running wrestling promotion in San Jose, UGWA! We talk about how UGWA got started, how it moved from the backyard to the Ritz, and how the X-Men influenced it all! Video Games, Comic Boos, Pro Wrestling and Famke Janssen, what more could you ask for?  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/  

Welcome back, Children of Krakoa, as we dig into another two exciting books about those Men (and Women) of X!    First up, Uncanny X-Men Annual #5. We start out with the Fantastic Four checking into a lady with a laser gun, and things get weird from there. You've got your invisible aliens, Invisible Girls, and Storm having dreams of interdimensional Civil War. And then the sixth page really gets cooking! This one packs it in so strap down tight or she may throw ya!    Next up is Avengers annual #10 and the circus is in town! At least that is what the cover is trying to sell. The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants stop by, Carol Danvers is mind controlled into leaving our world and shacking up with her son in another dimension, and the Avengers just let her mind controlled self do it. It's a convoluted tale to be sure, but it's also the first appearance of Rogue, and you can tell she's up to no good because her haircut is TERRIBLE!!! This emotional roller coaster of a book almost made Roger and Drew come to virtual blows so make sure and listen to the very end!

Welcome back kids! Are you having fun? Is the season of the year when you are listening to this giving you weather to your liking? Is the upcoming/recently occurred holiday going to be a good time? How about that sports team that just did a thing?!? We have another banger of an ep for ya! First up Bizarre Adventures #27. Where we read the first and last stories, but skip Iceman, because, why wouldn't you? Jean Grey and Nightcrawler feature, and we get to see some great Dave Cockrum show what his lines can really do in this black and white magazine! Next up is X-Men #150, and boy is it something! This issue has everything! Storm about to cut a bitch, Cyclops deputy leadering his way into another lassie's' pants, Banshee getting angry that I stole his word for women, and Magneto on a Cthulhu terror island wiping out an X-Man! All this and Carol Danvers too! Listen in, won't you?  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/

Did you know that dogs fart almost 20 times a day? And cats? Once or twice. So that smell in your bedroom? NOT THE CAT!!! So stop blaming them!  Welcome home sweet students of X, we missed you. We really did. But, we shall forgive your wanderings and even reward you with a pair of X-Issues that will make your return all the more sweet! First up, we have Uncanny X-Men 148. Storm, Stevie, and Spider-Woman take Kitty to a strip club, because what else do you do with a pre-teen on a Sunday after church, am I right? Okay, maybe it's a Saturday. And maybe it's actually a Dazzler concert. Also Angel has a shit fit because he thinks Wolverine is a psycho. AND, Scott manages to swim a good distance without being able to see, and visits his old pal Magneto in hos spiffy new eldritch horror retirement home! Next up is X-Men 149. Magneto uses his powers to neutralize Scott's optic blasts, because magnetism! And the rest of the team pay a visit to our old pal Gary, better known to you X-Fans as Garrok! What sort of crazy hijinks has our old pal Gary been up to since the last time we stopped by to say hi? You will have to listen in to 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/ Website! https://houseofxbookclub.com/

Welcome in Blue Retrievers, we hope you brought your imago-spheres! Because today we want to take you on a special trip! No, not to the back room at Mr. Horton's bicycle shop, but to a world where Jean Grey did not die! First up in What If 27, we talk about just that. Although technically Jean Grey does die, and then the Phoenix wears her meat sack around and CONTINUES TO COMMIT HORRIBLE ACTS OF TERROR!!! And she gets more time with Scott, so win-win! Next up is X-Men 147! We are back at Doom's castle! Storm is a robot, Arcade is annoying, and Angel has to poop on newspaper from a bar high in the air! All this, plus Professor X begins to hatch his next evil scheme! It doesn't say that explicitly, but at this point we should all just assume, right?

Man, I don't know about you, but when the summer months hit, all I want to do is sit around in my underpants and read comics. Unfortunately, my HR manager and I had to have a talk after that happened. So now I am on a "Written Warning". I tried to tell them I could not read, but the comics gave me away! Uptight co-workers! Anyway, we have a pair of bangers for ya, as we first dive into Spider Woman #38. And this one is a literal banger, as Colossus bangs a big hole in a ship, and then our old pal Juggernaut bangs another hole to go after the man of metal. All that, and the police are sexist to Spider-Woman. Was anyone surprised by that? Anyone at all? All right then let's move on. Next up we have X-Men 146, and we once again enter the least murderiest of worlds, Murderworld! Watch as no one dies! Gasp in horror as no one endures even the slightest of injuries! Look away as everyone escapes completely unharmed! You WILL NOT LEAVE THIS PLACE ANY DIFFERENT!!! Doom is here too! Join us for the recap kids!
