We’re back (kind of)! Thanks for sticking with us. It’s been a long couple of months, but we are ready to reopen the X-Club! In this episode, Nick and Josh catch up and talk about the Avengers/X-Men trailer, their favorite super hero media of 2025, and what to expect when we pick back up with the Age of Apocalypse!
