It's September, and that means it's officially "Back to School" season! And we're in the academic spirit, reading and reviewing X-Campus, a four-issue miniseries, from 2010. "As told by some of Europe's greatest comics storytellers," including writer Francesco Artibani, X-Campus re-imagines the X-Men mythos and the origins of the team, re-casting the characters we know and love as the faculty and students of the Worthington Foundation, a special High School for gifted youth. Does this reimagining work? Which characters are best suited to this sort of approach, and which feel out of place cast as modern teenagers? And should Marvel try more "Elseworlds"-style re-tellings of the X-Men mythos? We discuss all this, and more!
But first, we look at the recent, controversial public dispute between fired X-Men '97 showrunner Beau DeMayo and Disney, offering our take on their war of words and accusations, and where the truth may lie (and, of course, for the second episode in a row, even more stuff about this came out not long after we recorded, so this probably won't be the last of it you'll hear from us, either).

In this episode, Trev and a Covid-brain addled Joe discuss the Marvel Hall H panel at last month's San Diego Comic Con. Are we excited for Captain America: Brave New World, Thunderbolts, and Fantastic Four? Are we happy the Russo Brothers are returning to comic book movies? What do we think of the return of Robert Downey Jr. to the MCU, as...Doctor Doom?? And, most importantly, how disappointed are we that no X-Men or mutant related movies were announced, and how do we see the X-Men possibly fitting into these upcoming projects, if at all?
Plus, Joe reflects on the perils of being a "Jack Black type" nowadays, and we discuss a few other recent pieces of X-news, including X-Men '97 creator Beau DeMayo complaining that he wasn't invited to the Emmys.
NOTE: This episode was recorded literally an hour before more details about the alleged behavior that may have led to DeMayo's X-Men '97 firing was made public. Don't worry, we'll be discussing all of that in our next episode!

Deadpool & Wolverine is finally here, breaking box-office records and generating lots of discourse. So of course we are legally and morally bound to add our voices to the mix. Our mixed feelings on Ryan Reynolds and the Deadpool franchise is well recorded, but so is our love of Hugh Jackman's portrayal of Wolverine, so what did we think of this eagerly anticipated team-up? Is it the saving grace of the MCU it was suggested to be? Is it anything more than a cameo-filled nostalgia fest? Which surprise characters did we enjoy seeing? Why did Marvel and Disney spoil some of the surprises? Were we correct in any of our pre-movie predictions? Did the movie make us laugh? Did it make us cry?? We examine all this and more, in our in-depth discussion of Deadpool & Wolverine!
But first, for no good reason other than our own amusement, an update on actor Joey Slotnick's Twitter account, and Joe shares his dismay at J.D. Vance's love of Diet Mountain Dew.

We're only days away from Deadpool & Wolverine. It's been commonly positioned as a "make or break" moment for the MCU, but is also - perhaps more importantly to our purposes - is essentially the true beginning of the MCU's "Mutant Saga." Are we excited for the movie? In this episode, we discuss our general enthusiasm (or lack thereof) levels for the film, as well as each share five predictions (cameos, storylines, etc.).
Note: This episode was recorded on June 29th, before Marvel Studios and Disney announced/spoiled some additional Deadpool & Wolverine information. But hey, now they're also saying some of their leaks might be purposefully fake and misleading, so maybe it doesn't matter! Maybe nothing matters! We're all about nihilism in 2024!!

On Saturday, June 29th, Trev and Joe got together and recorded an incredible episode about all the exciting new X-Men related merch hitting the shelves nowadays. And then, due to an audio-related SNAFU, they decided the episode was un-releasable. Now, join us as we re-do the episode, weeks later, trying to cover the same material without simply repeating the same conversation. So here is Take Two of Capitalist Joe discussing the X-Men toys, Lego sets, and video games that he's happy to see, and what he thinks it means for the property's current stature in pop culture. PLUS, we reminisce about the lost discussions from the previous version of the episode, including a debate about Martin Short's Jiminy Glick character, thoughts on broken fandoms, and a way too in-depth Martin Mull tribute.

The long-awaited X-Men '97 is finally here, and yep, you know we watched it. What our overall thoughts on the series? How do we think it stacked up against the original X-Men: The Animated Series. What do we think it means for the X-Men as an IP and franchise moving forward? We discuss all this, and more, including the controversial exit of showrunner Beau DeMayo. Plus, for OG Trev and Joe fans, some late night TV talk-show thoughts! And, Joe shares an embarrassing story about his encounter with I Think You Should Leave's Tim Robinson.

We're back! Yes...again! That's right, as the X-Men's Krakoan era ends, DOFP begins a new era, returning from a nearly full-year hiatus to once again discuss all things X-Men. First up, we gotta catch up! We share our thoughts on some of the X-related topics we missed while we were gone, including Beast's cameo in The Marvels, and where we currently stand on the Krakoan era in the comics. We also give our take on each of the new X-Men titles announced for the upcoming post-Krakoa relaunch event, "From the Ashes," offering our opinions on each book's character roster, premise, and creative team. And, of course, what would an X-Men podcast be without some talk about, uh, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes?
Oh, and yeah, you know we gotta talk about that weather.
Welcome back, everyone! We've missed you.

We are finally going to lock in our 2023 dream casting (fan-casting?) of what we want to see for the X-Men in MCU. Plus Joe does the intro? And Trev is still mad about Mario.
Note: This episode was originally recorded before the release of the Deadpool 3 set photos, or the announcement of the current Hollywood strikes, which is why neither of those are discussed.

We're back once again to review the recent Ex-Terminators miniseries, by Leah Williams. A tribute to grindhouse exploitation pitting some of our favorite X-Women against vampires and a surprise mystery villain, the book seems like it should be right up our alley. But do we think it lived it up to its premise? We discuss this, and well as also talk the Super Mario Brothers movie, award show hosts (of course) and more.

We're back!! Again!!! That's right, after a lengthy hiatus, DOFP finally returns. For our catch-up episode, we're discussing our thoughts on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and it's portrayal of Namor (Marvel's first mutant, don't you know?). Then, we're sharing our take on Hugh Jackman returning to play Logan in the upcoming third Deadpool movie. Are we happy or disappointed with this news? We also speculate on the recently announced casting of Emma Corrin in the same movie. Plus, X-Men shoes, the MCU's X-plans, and much more. Give it a listen!

We've reconvened, in person together for the first time in years, to discuss the current state of mutants in the MCU, and more. We're sharing our thoughts on both Thor: Love & Thunder and Ms. Marvel (including THAT big reveal in the final episode), plus what why we believe there were no X-Men related announcements at this year's San Diego Comic Con. SDCC did, however, give us our first official look at the upcoming X-Men '97 animated series, and we discuss the lack of surprises in the character designs, but the interesting revelation of who will be team leader in the show. All this, and more!

In their first ever video episode, Trev and Joe are x-amining the "Elite 8" of our annual Mutant March Madness tournament (which kicked off in episode 156 of the podcast). This time, it's a battle to determine the "Most Stylish Mutant." Join us as we decide whether Cable, Cyclops, Domino, Magik, Mister Sinister, Mojo, Storm, or Warlock will take this year's crown (or is it a trophy? As discussed in the episode, Trev doesn't know much about B-Ball).

It's time once again for our annual Mutant March Madness tournament. This time, we're pitting the costumes, designs, and overall "look" of 64 different mutant characters against each other. Which mutants do we believe are the most visually striking on the page? How important is an abundance of various costumes over the years versus one defining look? Is it better for villains to look "scary" or "cool?" All of this and more is considered, as we try to figure out which mutant is the most "stylish."
Note: This episode was recorded over Zoom, which is not our usual protocol. Apologies in advance for the audio (particularly on Trev's end) not being as clear as usual.

Did you hear it?? Did you hear Patrick Stewart's voice in the trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness?? Well, we sure did, and we're here to break down all the wild speculation this confirmation of Professor X appearing in the movie kicked off. What version of Xavier will this be? How big a role will Stewart play? Might James McAvoy come along, as well? And is this the first step toward soon seeing other X-Men characters in the MCU? We're covering it all, baby.
But first, some discussion about whether X-Men comics should feel obligated to acknowledge real-world events, brief thoughts on the first issue of Peter Milligan and Michael Allred's X-Cellent #1, and - of course - our thoughts on all the recent Oscars controversy.

It's Valentine's Day, and we're feeling x-tra romantic. So in this episode, we're each sharing our own personal favorite, least favorite, and most hoped-for romances from the X-Universe. Did your most beloved X-couples make the cut?
But first, we discuss Steven Soderbergh's recent comments about superhero movies being sexless. Plus, it's the long awaited return of our podcast-within-a-podcast, "Chatting Tatum," as we look at Channing Tatum's revelations about his GAMBIT script and his disappointment about the movie never being made.

After a holiday hiatus, we're back for a brand new season of Days of Future Podcast! That's right - it's our long-awaited third season premiere, and we're celebrating by sharing our overall thoughts on the state of the X-books as the "Reign of X" era, and Jonathan Hickman's time on the books, comes to a close. We briefly discuss both the "Trial of Magneto" and "Inferno" events, as well as our expectations and concerns about the upcoming post-Hickman world of the X-Men. This includes our takes on the new upcoming X-titles such as "Knights of X," "Sabretooth," "X-Men: Red," and "Immortal X-Men." Plus, we finally discuss our opinion of the recently announced X-Men '97 animated series for Disney+, as well as our predictions of whether any X-Men characters will be appearing in Doctor Strange & the Multiverse of Madness.
All this, plus our usual trademark pre-topic banter, this time covering the unaired Golden Globes, Bob Saget, potential Lorne Michaels successors, who should host the Oscars, and more. Yep...we're definitely back.

It's the Spoopiest time of the year, so you know what that means - Trev and Joe once again trying to figure out just what a Halloween episode of this show should even be! Thankfully, this time we have not one but TWO Halloween related issues to discuss. First up is the recently released "X-Men #4," which sees Jean Grey doing psychic battle with the Doctor Strange villain Nightmare on the night before Halloween. Next up is "X-Men Unlimited Vol. 2, #1," from 2004, featuring a story about the students of Xavier Academy trick-or-treating, free of worries about being in public with their mutations showing. It's a double-dose of October chills, X-Men style.
But first, plenty of talk about Halloween parades, children's costumes, and, for some reason, foot fetishists. Also, we discuss the news regarding the long-awaited release of Peter Milligan and Michael Allred's "The X-Cellent" ongoing series.

For our 150th episode spectacular, we're perhaps going the obvious route, and taking an in-depth look at "Uncanny X-Men #150," from October of 1981. On its 40th anniversary, we're taking a look at this classic tale from writer Chris Claremont and artist Dave Cockrum - a very famous and important chapter in the ongoing battle/relationship between the X-Men and their most important villain, Magneto. Is it still just as x-citing a read today as it was when first released?
But first - discussion about the recent announcement of a Wolverine video game from the same studio that made the beloved Spider-Man games, INHUMANS star Anson Mount throwing his hat in the ring for the eventual MCU Gambit, and a new creative team for "Marauders." All this, and more!
