Episode 032 - Off the Map

==Episode Description== __NOTOC__
In which we hit the definitive arc of New Mutants; Bill Sienkiewicz blows our minds; Rachel gets choked up over a credits spread; Rahne gets a makeover; Doug Ramsey is justifiably flustered; and Warlock is a friend to household appliances.
NOTE: This episode includes a lot of art talk. While doing so is not strictly necessary to follow the discussion, we recommend listening with the visual companion open.

==Listener Questions==
*What's the deal with Tom Corsi and Sharon Friedlander? In the Demon Bear Saga, both were turned from white to Native American, and this was never addressed again to my knowledge. Has Claremont ever stated the reason for this? It seems like something major, but it just sort of happened and the characters got on with their lives.
*Where are the New Mutants now? It's my understanding that the book turned into X­Force but that title is not that anymore.
