This video is a list of theories and predictions about what to expect in season two of X-Men 97. The first season didn’t just wildly exceed my expectations. It laid a rich foundation on which to build. The season one finale offered plenty of clues. This is just me following those teases to what may lie ahead for this uncanny series. Enjoy!

This video is a post-mortem and an overall breakdown of the end of the Krakoa era in the X-Men comics. What started with House of X/Powers of X and ended with Fall of X, the X-Men underwent some of the biggest upheavals the franchise has experienced since the Chris Claremont era. It laid a new foundation unlike anything we’d seen before with the X-Men.
Then, Fall of X came and brought it to an ugly, destructive end.
There’s a lot to be said about the Krakoa era, what led up to it, and what will come after it. I do my best share my sentiments, my hopes, and what this era means to me and other X-Men fans. Enjoy!

This video is my quick, unscripted reaction to the season one finale of X-Men 97. I had such high expectations for this show. And now that the first season is over, I can safely say it delivered! It really was something special. It didn’t just reintroduce the X-Men in a big, bold way. It laid a truly uncanny foundation to build on. Enjoy!

This video analyzes two iconic villains who seek to rule over all, Emperor Palpatine and Dr. Doom.
Which is the better ruler?
Who would you rather live under?
How does their agenda make them great villains?
There’s a lot to consider when reviewing their personas, their backstories, and their capabilities. But when it comes to villainous rulers, these two set the highest of bars. Enjoy!

This video is my full review of Ultimate Black Panther #3 by Bryan Hill and Stefano Casalli. War is raging between Wakanda and the forces of Khonshu and Ra. The order the Maker created is seeking to preserve its power and even strengthen it.
But fighting this war means uncovering buried secrets. That leads T’Challa to team up with Killmonger and Storm to find out just what the Maker’s Council is after. Enjoy!

This video is my review of Ultimate X-Men #2. After this newly rebooted Ultimate Universe delivered so many amazing first issues, Ultimate X-Men really disappointed. It was one of the most underwhelming comics I’ve read in a long time, lacking anything that would make it an appealing X-Men comic, let alone an Ultimate comic on par with what others have done.
My review of the first issue earned quite a bit of flak. But I always intended to review the second issue. I don’t let one bad issue define a series. And while this second issue was an improvement over the first, it was still lacking.

This video is my full review of Ultimate Spider-Man #3 by Jonathan Hickman and Marco Checchetto. This all-new, all-different Ultimate Universe has given us a new vision of Peter Parker and Spider-Man. But so far, he has struggled to become a capable in hero in a world without many left. In this issue, he continues to grow, thanks to some help from his daughter and an unexpected ally. Enjoy!

This is video another entry in my ongoing “Jack’s Comic Gems” collection. And in this gem, I single out one of the most unapologetically fun comics to come out in years. And at a time when everything and everyone takes themselves too seriously, a comic that’s just plain fun is just what we need.
X-Terminators by Leah Williams was not billed as some ground-breaking, genre-defining mini-series. It was just a simple, straightforward story about Dazzler, Jubilee, Tabitha, and Laura Kinney going on a crazy adventure that was joyously entertaining every step of the way.
It made for a unique, but refreshing comic experience and one that’s certainly worthy of being a true comic gem. Enjoy!
