UNCANNY X-MEN #318: Moving Day

Throw a dollar in the hat and get more Uncanny X-Cerpts on Ko-Fi!
Hello X-Fans!
Unfortunately, there's no new update on the site today. I needed a little extra time to cover the final arm of the Phalanx Covenant on Ko-Fi, so I'm leaving the next issue of Uncanny until this Thursday.
I know that some of you have been slow to take me up on my offer of "Fundraiser Posts" but I really think you should consider it. For just a small donation -- your choice how much -- you get monthly access to all the wild branches of X-Men history I don't have time to cover here. Simply chipping in a dollar now and again to acknowledge the work this site has done gets you a bounty of extra material!
Think about it: We've already covered The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix, and two of the three parts of Phalanx Covenant that were not posted here. You never know what else I might do, but here's a hint.
In early 1995, the entire X-Universe was flipped into the alternate reality Age of Apocalypse, in one of the most sprawling and ambitious crossovers ever attempted, with four-part digressions in every X-Men title.
If you're like me, you have a lot of affection for this particular event, but if you are me, you simply don't have time to cover all of it on this blog. I will be bringing you the runs of Astonishing X-Men (which takes the place of Uncanny) and Amazing X-Men (the "adjectiveless" title) but if you want more, you've got to go to Ko-Fi.
I don't think it's asking too much, and your contributions help power the growth of this site.
Consider donating today!
