Join me on a brief but moderately accurate attempt at unraveling the convoluted and interesting origins of this character that has been stealing hearts since the 90's.

    Apr 8 2024

    X-Men '97 episodes 3 & 4 take huge swings at paying homage to Inferno, one of the biggest X-Men stories from the 80's involving a mysterious clone of Jean and a demonic assault on the team. As well as a pixelated take on the famous Konami X-Men game with the help of Mojo, the spineless other-dimensional overlord obsessed with ratings.

Love the idea, hate the creator

I really enjoy the idea of calibrating the X-Men. The comic lore is fascinating and nuanced, and I hope others would enjoy reading them! My issue with this podcast is the demeanor of the creator. Jon has the tendency to be condescending due to his insecurity and I get the impression that he enjoys lecturing a little too much. I really enjoy the content of this podcast, but have trouble with Jon’s pain.
