Bladtcast Classic #39 -"Welcome to the X-Men, Bladtcast...Hope you Survive the Experience" by Bladtcast

This week, to commemorate the recent release of "X-Men: Apocalypse", we feature a special Bladtcast Classic #39, "Welcome to the X-Men, Bladtcast...Hope you Survive the Experience" (Originally Posted 11/20/13), which was entirely devoted to Christian's 90 minute conversation with long-time X-Men writer Chris Claremont.

They discuss what was then new "X-Men Gold", the great X-Men stories of yesteryear including "The Dark Phoenix Saga" and "Days of Future Past", X-Men films, the latest of which at that time was "The Wolverine", plus also discussion about Star Trek, time travel, alternate realities, one of Chris's most recent projects "Madra, The She Wolf", the e-books of his "High Frontier" trilogy, a fantastic story about the original cast of "Saturday Night Live" and much more! For more about Chris, go to ChrisClaremont.com

Thinking back on this episode, Christian said that it was one of his absolute favorite experiences in doing the Bladtcast, and his favorite thing was the way that Mr. Claremont referred to the X-Men by their real names as opposed to their code names or "super hero names", such as Logan, Ororo, Kurt, and, especially Charlie. If you enjoy listening half as much as he enjoyed recording it, you'll have a smile on your face for the next hour and a half.
