The Incomparable

Huzzah! Dan is back and we’re back on the X-Men beat. This week we cover an eclectic set of mid-season episodes. A fun Tron-Romp, some trippy malevolent force thing, and a simply stunning and terrific episode on Genosha.

  196 X-Men (2000)

  Hosts Dan Moren, John Moltz, and Guy English

  Before the superhero ball got rolling the mutants were there to give it a push. This week we visit the X-Men in the original movie from the year 2000. It’s not perfect. There are plenty of flaws. But, wow, what a movie. It may not be so much of a template as Iron Man (or The Incredible Hulk) but it is inarguably in the vanguard of what would become the dominant blockbuster movie events since it was released.

  Hosts Dan Moren, John Moltz, and Guy English

If you’d like to tune in for a bit of holiday cheer as we discuss the first four episodes of What If? season 2 then we’ve got you covered. Like the dark fog of a besieged Xandar lit up by justice. The love of an adoptive family. The persistence of the pernicious to become purple, powerful, and petty is perfect. And, as always, Jeff Goldblum finds a way.
