Disagree with the feedback, your podcast doesn't suck at all! I certainly appreciated the Million Dollar Man reference.
So I'm hoping you still have Shanna #5 knocking about somewhere, because I'm super curious about those "missing years" of the X-Men and wonder if you wouldn't mind sharing a bit more about Xavier's appearance therein? Does he mention any of the X-Men at all?
Cheers!
Thanks for the feedback, GomessQ! Ted Dibiase was absolutely one of my favorite WWE stars - loved the attitude and swagger he brought to the squared circle!
In his neat cameo in Shanna #5, Professor X was presented solely as an expert on mutants - no mention was made of his connection to the X-Men, though I'm sure his association with the team needed no explanation to many reading the book at the time.
Writer Steve Gerber, along with Steve Englehart, championed the X-Men in the early 70s while the mutants were 'between engagements' and had them pop up in the various titles they wrote. This helped keep the X-Men in peoples' minds before they blew up a year or two later.
Thanks for listening!
Thanks for your illuminating reply! As I said the "missing years" are an endless source of fascination for me, particularly the baffling decision to return the X-Men to their old "yellow bib" uniforms.
Take care! *DiBiase laugh*
