This week, after some devastating lows and the uplifting power of the Women's March, Rachelle and Dave continue their look at the X-Men films of Hugh Jackman. In this episode they talk about X2: X-Men United.
Also in this episode: Bucky and Natasha are kissing again in Black Widow #10, Nick Spencer has some unpopular opinions about Nazi punching, Chris Evans posts a cute video, Rachelle discovers that All-New X-Men is adorable and romantic and wonderful, Batman calls Catwoman 'Cat' and Catwoman calls Batman 'Bat', applications are open for the Sebastian Stan Protection Squad, and, geez...Logan looks violent!
The United States is about to swear in a new, evil president and we all need to find our own ways of coping with that. Rachelle and Dave are choosing to watch all of the X-Men movies in order. Because why not rub a little salt in the wound, right?
In this episode they discuss the very first X-Men movie. It came out almost seventeen years ago! It had highs (Hugh Jackman's chest) and lows (what on earth was Magneto's plan again?).
Also discussed in this episode: God Country #1, the new Watchmen teaser thing at DC, a new Defenders comic, and, for whatever reason, the 2005 Mark Ruffalo movie, Just Like Heaven.
This week Rachelle and Dave are sharing their thoughts on different comic book formats. Trades, Treasury Editions, Absolute Editions, digests, OGNs, digital...it's more interesting than it sounds!

2016 is over and 2017 promises to be...challenging. But it also has a lot of exciting things on the horizon, entertainment-wise. Dave and Rachelle are here to talk about the comics and movies that they are excited for this year.
Also in this episode: Winter Soldier is in two comics and gets mentioned in a third! He's interacting with Black Widow again! Exciting times!
