The Uncanny X-Cerpts Patreon continues to be a thing, as promised!
In June, we caught up with the X-Treme X-Men as they battled Vargas in Spain, leading to a moment made all the more shocking because of what was happening outside of comics.
I also continued my work recapping the New Mutants with the third part of their 1983 Yearbook. Thrill as the youngsters are caught up in Nova Roman political intrigue, and and are bedazzled the sorcery of Selene!
Then, we delved into the world of "What If," looking at what happened in a reality where Professor Xavier became the Juggernaut. With Kurt Busiek brainstorming ways Charles could use his power for evil, this is an interesting examination of the nature of power gone mad.
You can get all of the above with by supporting us with a monthly membership, or you can get them a la carte for only $3 apiece.
As if that weren't enough, I gave a special free article where I run down ten plotlines from the 90s that I thought could have turned out a lot better than they did. If it sounds like just an excuse to complain, it's really only kind of that as I lament missed potential in stories that started from intriguing premises.

When I launched this Patreon, I pledged to keep it in operation with at least 3 posts per month from March until June, as a trial. And it's true that it hasn't done blockbuster numbers. But I'm not ready to shut it down yet. I'm having a lot of fun diving deep into random corners of X-history that were excluded from the original blog and I want to keep going, at least a little while longer.
I hope you'll join me there, either to read coverage of random mutant stories we cover, or to show your support for this long-running endeavor of mine.
