UNCANNY X-MEN #437-441 | "She Lies With Angels"

X-Men is back in a big way thanks to corporate buyouts, but in the '00s, things were weird for the franchise. This storyline in particular is most famous for the scene with Angel and Husk... umm.. well, when a man loves a barely legal girl, he takes her up and [redacted for sensitive minds]. What's even more important is that that whole relationship introduces that them Guthrie household had to be built on toxic waste and it's a Romeo and Juliet story! YEAH! This is a test episode for a new channel specifically focused on reading the entirety of X-MEN! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

V For Vendetta | Issue 1

Naturally, since it's the 5th of November, no one cares about Guy Fawkes Day but boy howdy did the Internet eat up the Wachowskis adaptation of V For Vendetta.

Halloween (the movie) | Part 1: Chaos! Comics

October is here! That means, by law, I have to talk about a horror comic. And why not the easiest one of them all: HALLOWEEN from a now-defunct studio that no one has heard of. These are always a treat. Yes, we have to get through reuploads of the first two parts to get to the finale. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
