Description:

Appropriate to our subject material this week, it is almost as though someone has gone back in time and killed, uh, the person who made our mixing board, since in addition to this week's talk being great, you can actually hear everyone clearly throughout! Obviously, time has been altered in some way.

This week we discuss what might be the most beloved Marvel event of all time, the Age of Apocalypse. It is certainly a favorite among most of your distinguished podcast crew. We walk down memory lane to the halcyon days of pre-Internet comics history, where not knowing every single plot twist a year in advance made things like Marvel replacing their most popular product line with an alternate universe an earth-shattering surprise and created one of the touchstones of the modern Marvel era and the singular point of comparison for all X-Men stories since.

Join us as we talk about the biggest whiny bitch across two universes (hint: his name rhymes with "Biclops"), the worst X-Men events to go along with the best, and having a space pirate for a father.

Also the word "splortch" is uttered.
