This issue of House of X totally rocked our worlds, as well as the world of the X-Men. I haven't reacted to a book like I reacted to this one in a very long time. If you haven't read it, go read it now on Marvel Unlimited before listening to the episode if you don't want to experience spoilers on a multiversal scale. I have a seen Moira MacTaggert   pop up in various spots in X-Men storylines, so I knew she was significant, but in House of X #2, she becomes one of, if not the most significant being in the Marvel universe.

If you are just jumping in here, we encourage you to go back one episode and start with Episode 29, which begins the entire arc. We also highly encourage you to check out each of the issues yourself. These 12 issues weave in and out of each other and are well worth the reading time! The easiest way to find them is probably Marvel Unlimited . But I bet you can also find floppies (paper copies) at your local comic shop , and it is well worth the investment! We really hope you are reading along w...
