7 – Cyclops Has a Good Day
With guest Greg Rucka! In which death is a revolving door, we really liked Days of Future Past, space pirates are the best pirates, Vulcan is (still) the worst, Miles has a Corsair costume, Lilandra has lovely plumage, no one knows how to pronounce "M'Kraan," we studiously avoid discussing the Phoenix force, Saurids speak Hebrew, Raza Longknife's name is a bit on the nose, Rachel is the worst at hugs, Greg has a 'ship, and we all kind of identify with Cyclops. X-Plained: The Starjammers (and how to pronounce their names) The Shi'ar The Neremani Dynasty Plumage Apostrophe abuse Corsair The secret origins of the Starjammers Why Hepzibah talks like that The Rule of Cool Visor iterations Summerstaches Cyclops's dubious deductive skills Hugs The All-New, All-the-Same X-Men Teenagers, again Cyclops #1 Cyclops vs. Scott Space-parenting Rachel's convention sketchbook Greg's Kitty Pryde feelings An exceptionally vivid threat Intergalactic fashion Corsair's pecs Key parties in space The greatest romance of the Marvel Universe You can find a visual companion to the episode – and links to recommended reading – on our blog.
