== Listener Questions ==
* Last episode, last week's episode, you mentioned comparing the Odinsleep to that board game Don't Wake Daddy. What overly complicated board game would you associate with an X-Men character?
* X-Men '92, or the nineties X-Men, kind of like really happened when I got into X-Men, so from a nostalgia standpoint that's what I grew up and loved, and it's easy for me to justify that because the entire line was rebooted and they brought everybody back together, but I was wondering for people who really love, like, the Australia outpost X-Men, it's so - for someone who came up right after that, I find it so weird, and so un-X-Men-like, that I was wondering what people who really loved that period of X-men and grew up with that, what they think of that and why they love it?
* Are there any X-men characters that you wish they would kill off and not resurrect, and why?
* I believe you've answered this question before, but when you think of your favorite characters, for example, me, one of my favorite characters is Longshot, and when I think of him, I think of him drawn by Arthur Adams, or for example, Boom Boom, when I think about her, I think of her drawn by Jon Bogdanov, who do you guys think of when you think of your favorite characters, as far as artists?
