Chris And Reggie's Cosmic Treadmill

In which Fabian Nicieza repeatedly takes the brave stance that Nazis are bad... and inches his story a few moments further along -- and our back-up feature begins the retelling of Wolverine's Origin... as in, literally, the first issue of Origin, we've got us another lackluster Infinity Comics day! Least we got the returning Mailbag to keep things light! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Revisiting the next of our Dawn of X opening arcs, with - what started out as the most consistently good book of the post-HoXPoX launch!  Call Me Kate takes center stage, and we're introduced to a very fun team of high-seas sailors... until our creative team forgot about like 80% of them! For this first arc, though -- it's great stuff! Is this the first time you've checked out X-Lapsed?  Are you an X-Lapsed-Lapsed listener who may've dropped off after having your pod-feeds slammed by my barrage of content?  Please let me know, I'd love to hear from you all! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Since 300+ episodes is quite the daunting task for any potential new listener... welcome to the X-Lapsed "Triple-Dip" -- the third time I'm sharing these episodes, however, rather than sorting them by where they'd appear in the Dawn of X Anthologies (as shown in The Collected X-Lapsed series of shows)... we're doing these by series! If you missed out on the earliest issues of Jonathan Hickman's run on X-Men (vol.5), here's your chance to start playing catch-up with Chris! If you missed out on House of X and Powers of X, the complete eight or so hour discussion of that storyline can be found in The Collected X-Lapsed, Episode One, available in the archives! Is this your first time giving X-Lapsed a try?  Are you a listener who's become X-Lapsed-Lapsed?  I'd love to hear from you - please consider dropping me a line to let me know what you think! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com

Wrapping up the second volume of S.W.O.R.D. with an honest-to-goodness "shoe drop"!  Secrets are revealed... which retroactively make much of this series' crossovent interruptions make a lot of sense! This is a goodie... and, even though this volume's over and done with, we still need to concern ourselves with "What Comes Next"! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

While all eyes are on Inferno, the X-Filler train rolls on! X-Force closes out it's "season" (it will return in April, 2022) with more Surf-Baddies, and... well... not a whole lot more! Wolverine does his own version of "jumping the shark", so that's something!  At least this one was kinda fun to chat about.  I hope it's just as fun to listen! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

A most bittersweet day in the neighborhood, as we bid farewell to one of the greatest comic series' I've read in... maybe a decade? We wrap up our stint with the Hellions... and writer, Zeb Wells truly lives up to his name, by making your humble host WELL up on more than one occasion during the reading!  This was a truly special book... that I would suggest any and all X-Fans need in their lives.  As always... if you ain't reading Hellions, read Hellions! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

We're back to the "grind" - and we're talking that one issue of Phoenix Song: Echo we X-Lapsed folk were all quite excited for!  I mean, just look at all that Krakoan Goodness on the cover! Well... about that?  Ehh, we'll talk about it.  In any event, I'm having a pretty okay time with this one... despite the lack of X-Stuff. In addition to chatting up this ish, we're also going to deep-dive on All Thing X in Marvel Free Previews for March, 2022!  I tried to keep my snark in check... you tell me if I succeeded! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Celebrating THREE-HUNDRED Episodes of X-Lapsed... and SIX-YEARS of DAILY content at Chris is on Infinite Earths, by taking a look into the past -- to the very seeds of the era I've dedicated thousands of hours to over the past couple of years - the 2019 House of X/Powers of X Free Preview! In addition to our hindsight-fueled look at "What's to Come" in the X-Men Universe, I also chat a bit about how we got to where we are... and do a full-on "State of the Union" chatting up all of the books we've covered to this point. Plus: Great Mailbag and a Stuffed Voice Mailbox!  It's near two-hours of me talking to myself... you don't wanna miss it! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Sharing a compilation of a very special series of episodes. Comix Tawk was Reggie and my Patreon Exclusive program, in which we basically shot the breeze and recorded it. Well, it was a little bit more structured than that... but, it's probably as "pure" Chris and Reggie as you'll find. Sharing them out here as I don't know if many listeners had the opportunity (or interest) in checking them out before. For this set, we talk about several of the hot-button topics in the comics industry and fandom -- the glut of variant covers, creators treating their deadlines as though they were optional, characters and concepts in comics that we don't really care for, the "myth" of decompression, and a breakdown of the "Four Kinds of Fans" that exist! I truly hope you enjoy! -- TIMESTAMPS: (00:00:00) Episode One: Variant Covers (00:43:15) Episode Two: Dreaded Deadline Doom (01:33:49) Episode Three: No Sir, We Don't Like it! (02:48:40) Episode Four: Completionism, Collecting, and Addiction (04:01:07) Episode

Collecting the latest (to this point) Sunday Special Series... wherein I checked back in with one of the X-Books that made me go running for the hills back in 2017! Generation X (vol.2) starts off... well, kinda clunky... kinda cringey... but, it does manage to turn the corner right before the axe of cancellation fell!  This is why we can't have nice things... This is a decently long compilation, collecting a dozen episodes... I hope you enjoy! -- TIMESTAMPS: (00:00:00) Generation X (vol.2) #1 (00:39:19) Generation X (vol.2) #2 (01:00:10) Generation X (vol.2) #3 (01:25:50) Generation X (vol.2) #4 (01:47:22) Generation X (vol.2) #5 (02:10:46) Generation X (vol.2) #6 (02:33:14) Generation X (vol.2) #7 (03:01:08) Generation X (vol.2) #8 (03:23:53) Generation X (vol.2) #9 (03:47:51) Generation X #85: "Survival of the Fittest, Part 1" (04:17:15) Generation X #86: "Survival of the Fittest, Part 2" (04:42:48) Generation X #87 -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JE

Moving into the next phase of Morituri-dom... in which a traitor is revealed, our heroes are put on trial... and we meet the next-next generation(s) of doomed-to-die protectors of the planet, including the shoe-drop installment which introduces the... Morituri Monsters! All that, and our usual nonsensical tangents and hoo-doo! We're getting close to the end of the Gillis/Anderson run... we hope you're enjoying these "big bites" of Morituri goodness! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics @Charlton_Hero / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/ The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

After two-plus years in our brave, new post-HoXPoX era... we're finally getting on with it!  Well, sorta... all of the momentum is about to be usurped by Hellfire Gala hoo-doo, and a fairly drastic shift in direction. This time out, we get some Nimrod, Sinister gets in position to start concocting Chimerae, Excalibur gets malicious, Kid Cable keeps being bummed out... and the Children of the Atom sorta-kinda get an origin... that never gets touched on again! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Still not up to getting behind the mic.  Hoping things will be back to normal next week.  Thank you for understanding. -- Since Namor cannot say no to a pretty face, he decides to throw in full-time with the Allied Powers.  He is also promoted to Commander-in-Chief of the Not-yet-lantean military... so, there's that too! This is the first time we see our hero use his underwater telepathy too... I'm sorry, there just isn't all that much to say about this one!  It's still fun though! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Sharing a Patreon eXclusive, as last night we lost our eldest pup... and I did not feel like I could perform on the mic.  Thank you for understanding. -- In which our Menacing Undersea Hero is wooed by yet another Pretty Young Thing, and even agrees to throw in with the Allies as World War II rolls on!  Will he forever be one of the "good guys" moving forward?  Why, that would be telling! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Web-Lapsed reaches the double-digits... and it's time to weave another spider into the Beyond Web: Welcome to the era, Miles Morales: We hope you survi-- nope!  Not gonna do it! Also, we get a bit more clarity on the link between the Beyond Corporation and Infinite Solutions, Doc Ock's involvement, and Spider-Ben's insecurities/maturation. It's a really good ish, I hope you'll gimme a listen!  -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Reunited... and it feels so weird.  Also, kinda gross. Today we're heading into one of our .BEY issues for Aunt May and Otto's night out... where they're collecting bodilies in hopes that they might be able to shake Peter from his slumber.  Plus, shoe-drops a'plenty regarding our Beyond Benefactors.  A very important issue within the Beyond Framework, that's well worth a read! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Web-Lapsed is back... and Spider-Ben's still trippin'!  Faced off with an Angel-Winged, Flame-Headed Kraven the Hunter, Ben's gotta get some help from Doug From Back in the Long Ago and his magic meds to regain his sanity!  Also, not one but TWO epilogues promise some very interesting developments yet to come. Plus - An overly long and wildly self-indulgent and embarrassing pre-ramble explaining why this episode didn't come out last week.  If you only want the Spidey Stuff, feel free to skip ahead to around 32 minutes. -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Inviting you to spend ten or so hours with the Chris's, as we continue chronicling the adventures of Earth-1287's Mightiest (and only) Heroes!  Having already suffered a handful of losses, our Morituri Makers, Tuolema and Nion have already moved on to "Strikeforce: Morituri - The Next Generation", a trio of new characters who the Chris's initially HATED... especially Will "The Douche" DeGuchi!  Will they ultimately win us over?  Oh, you KNOW they will... This tangent-filled compilation will also introduce the idea of the Morituri Cure, traitors to the cause... and the somewhat horrifying (in all the wrong ways) issue about the CATS!  We hope you enjoy!  -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics @Charlton_Hero / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/ The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Our X-Amination of the X-Ploits of the Silver Age X-Men continues... as we recommence our travels down crappy villain corridor... dealing with the likes of El Tigre and the Ogre.  Thankfully, this leads us to an actual direction for our young mutants... plus, a new member (and field leader) in The (not-even-a-mutant... at the time) Mimic!  The direction in question is... well, not a great one, as it's the seemingly interminable FACTOR THREE storyline!  Are you ready for this?  Probably not... -- TIMESTAMPS: (00:00:00) X-Men #25: "The Power and the Pendant!"

The crisis at home has once again precluded me from putting out an all-new episode.  Thank you all for understanding!  If you're enjoying the Point One show, please consider checking out the Patreon for more! -- Our Golden Age adventures continue in a sorta-kinda brand new title!  Marvel MYSTERY Comics. Today our Not-yet-lantean anti-hero makes landfall... and also falls for a pretty face!  He *literally* gives this pretty young thing the hotpants... and uses his own bodily fluids to put her out!  You just can't make this stuff up! -- X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com xlapsed.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/ facebook.com/groups/90sxmen
