Welcome back to Waiting on the Trade, a comics book club for people who don’t have time for monthly comics!
In this episode, guest host Monte Nelson begins our crossover with The SJW Comic Book Club podcast, as we discuss Max Bemis, Michael Walsh, and co.’s X-Men: Worst X-Man Ever.
Explanations, Observations, and Links of Note
- You may have noticed that this episode is mostly just an excuse for Monte, Pat, and me to bullshit about the X-Men. Given the many, many in-jokes Worst X-Man Ever contains, I think Bemis and co. would approve.
- I still think Cyclops is the best X-Man. Feel free to send a letter.
- For those who don’t know who Beak is, here you go. I won’t be giving explainers for any of the other X-Men we mention – they’re either popular enough they don’t need it, or they don’t deserve it.
- Okay, fine, I’ll link one for Maggot. But that’s it!
- Poor Beast; he’s so far gone.
- And yes, Bailey has appeared in the mainline 616 Marvel Universe. It seems Miranda managed to port him over after all …
