It’s so awesome to hear your own review read over your guys’ podcasts and you’ve no idea how awesome it is that my iTunes review was read during the final installment of the “Dark Phoenix Saga.” You guys said I wouldn’t hear this for a couple years, but it was July 2nd that I heard this, a little more than 2 months since I initially put my review, so, suck on that, Adam & Jeremy. I listen to your podcast every day going to work, coming home from work and during breaks and lunch periods. What really shortened the gap was driving from Minnesota to Idaho, over three days, 20 hours of driving, listening to nothing but this podcast. Thank you both so much, this podcast really helped keep my sanity, as it was my first roadtrip as the driver and I was in the car alone the whole time, so it was really nice feeling like I wasn’t the only one in here. It won’t be long until I’m caught up, especially now that “Classic X-Men” is out of the picture, and I can’t wait to see (or hear) what you guys have in store for us during the 80’s X-Men. Question: what’s gonna happen when you guys get to the beefing up of the ‘X’-franchise during the mid-80’s? Solely stick to “Uncanny” or…cover any and every X-title there is, was or ever will be? Answer: You damn well better…
