ResurrXion was a Marvel Comics event involving brand new plot points and fresh starts for its "Inhumans" titles and "X-Men" titles in order to establish a new status quo for both franchises after the events in "Inhumans vs X-Men" ended.  This event focused only on Inhumans and X-Men titles as all of their ongoing story arcs post-Secret Wars were wrapped up once "Inhumans vs X-Men" resolved all of the ongoing story arcs revolving around those titles.  One of the most noteworthy aspects of this event is that it returned the X-Men comic books to their status as one of the forefront franchises of Marvel, a position that the X-Men hasn't held since the 90s when the X-Men were Marvel's top-selling franchise.  This assuaged many fears from fans that Marvel was slowly killing off the franchise and replacing it with the Inhumans due to 20th Century Fox currently owning the movie rights for the X-Men. The Uncanny X-Cast is a niche Comic book audio podcast that features Marvel Comics' Mighty Mutants, the X-Men.  Started in 2006, the X-Cast reunited two X-fans, Brian Perillo and 2014 Emmy Award Winning Rob Briscoe.  Perillo had been reading X-Men and other comics consistently for over 25 years.  Bringing a unique gift of a nearly eidetic memory, Perillo is able to cite off-hand specific issue numbers, writers, and artists to major story lines and events in X-Men history.  Briscoe, however, returned to regular comic reading after a long hiatus and continues to refine his knowledge on the intricate workings of the X-Men universe.  Perillo brings wisdom with a rich knowledge of comics history, and Briscoe continues to bring a sense of freshness and vitality to the comics-podcast industry.  Due to their individual histories, these two professional podcast journalists are able to draw in listeners and readers, both long-time and newly acquainted to the X-Universe.
