On this episode Matt and special guest co-host from the futurrrrrrre (insert echo effect here) Mat Elfring (communications manager at Oni Press) try not to reveal which Mat(t) is the secret villain as they discuss 1993's X-MEN 2099 #1.
Before the 2099 of it all, Matt and Mat spend some time heaping much deserved praise on another Matt. In this case it's writer/artist Matt Kindt and his incredible new comic of MIND MGMT: NEW & IMPROVED (from Oni - issue one is available NOW and IT HAS A CHROMIUM COVER)!
Then we're off to the year 2099 where things are...different...sort of.
There's a Spider-Man swinging around. A Doom has some political schemes. A Hulk is likely rampaging about. A Punisher is punishering. A Ghost Rider will eventually be ghost ridering. You get it.
And now there's an X-MEN! (At least, there is the start of an X-MEN).
Mostly Matt and Mat try to figure out if this is a really good bad comic or a really bad good comic?
Also, is it smart to ride a horse on a balcony? It doesn't seem like a good idea, but this isn't a podcast known for it's horse expertise, so we could be wrong.
