Crushing Comics S01E081 – How X-Men: Second Coming brought me back to comics

March 7, 2018 by krisis

In the second of three episodes focused on unwrapping a massive brick of oversized X-Men comics, I reminisce about Second Coming – the storyline that tempted me back to reading comics in general and modern X-Men in specific (as discussed back in 2010).

Want to start from the beginning of this season of videos? Here’s the complete Season 1 playlist of Crushing Comics.

Episode 81 features X-Men: Second Coming and X-Men: Second Coming – Revelations, both covered in my Guide to Uncanny X-Men by Brubaker, Fraction, & Gillen.
