Episode 065 – The Mutant Massacre, Part 1

==Episode Description==
In which we hit the first big X-centric crossover; a lot of Morlocks die; X-Factor is a dark farce; Kitty Pryde talks down a mob without using racial slurs; when Doug Ramsey tells you there’s a problem, you listen; and Callisto should be one of the iconic leaders of the Marvel Universe.

== Listener Questions ==
* Do you feel that the late 80s crossovers, starting with Mutant Massacre, directly lead to the culture of crossover bloat that would become a hallmark of the X-universe? Or is it just a symptom of how the comics industry business model evolved?
* Who are some X-characters that are not appearing in already announced All-New All-Different Marvel books you'd like to see in the next wave of announcements? Personally, I hope Jubilee, Monet, and Rachel Grey show up somewhere. It's also been too long since we've seen Dani Moonstar and Nate Grey show up anywhere.
