Episode 31: House of X #2 (2019) - Part 3 of our PHOX Event coverage

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. This is a book that needs to be read. I have read it 4 or 5 times now and every time I find something new to love. (kind of like how I find a new layer of awesomeness every time I watch Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan)

I don't want to give away too much with this blog post in case you haven't read or listened to the episode yet. Just trust me, this is one for the record books.

And make sure to listen to the episode to find out how to enter for a chance to win your very own copy of Powers of X #1.

Episode 109: Truth: Red, White, & Black (2003) Robert Morales, Kyle Baker

In today's episode, we have our final installment for Black History Month with the emotionally gripping, "Truth: Red, White, & Black", which follows several characters, including Isaiah Bradley.

Who/What is the 2 Man Comic Book Club?

My name is Drew Morris. I was once in a book club with one other guy (which we called the 2 man book club). We read a The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and then Huckleberry Finn. We never really met to talk about them in the way most book clubs actually work. We just read them and occasionally made jokes to each other about them. (And sang the "Freebootin'" song from the Tom Sawyer musical, which we came across while reading it).  Several years later, my friend Alex Miller told me that I should get a subscription to Marvel Unlimited so I could read comics again. After a little thinking, I did, and jokingly said that we should start a 2 man comic book club. The 2 man comic book club started in much the same way as my 2 man book club. Alex and I would tell each other about comic books that we should check out, we would read them, and talk briefly about them when we ran into each other.  Fast forward a year or so, Alex texts me one morning ...
