Download The MP3 Here 

Marvel had 2 interesting telephone press conferences this week.



First up, Wednesday's Death Of X chat with writers Jeff Lemire Charles Soule and editors Nick Lowe and Axel Alonso . Death Of X is the prelude to the coming X vs I event as the Inhumans and X-men go to war. It also explains the 8 month time jump from last year's Secret Wars event .


Then Mark Waid & Tom Brevoort tell the press about the new Champions book coming next month. These legacy heroes have formed a new team, for new reasons. Waid & Brevoort go in depth to explain the motivations of this new team.

Interesting how Much more the editors spoke than the writers. Indicative of the issues and problems in the Marvel books.
Of course they are trying to make good X books.
Just- not too good or that would be a problem for Disney and film rights.
