Show notes.

In the comics, Nightcrawler is the child of Mystique and was given up by his mother. He was informally adopted by a Romani queen and was raised in a traveling circus–not the Munich circus as in the movies.

Lady Deathstrike is a cyborg with a mechanized body and Adamantium claws in the comics. She originated in Japan and has an irrational hatred of Wolverine which led her to America and association with William Stryker.

William Stryker was a sergeant in the army and is associated with the Weapon X program that gave Wolverine his Adamantium skeleton. He has a very dark origin story that led to his own irrational hatred of Professor X. 

Mastermind is not the son of William Stryker. He was recruited away from a carnival into the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants by Magneto. In the Brotherhood, his teammates were Toad, Scarlet Witch, and Quicksilver.

News you can abuse!

Rumor has it there’s a bizarre cast for the Fantastic Four. We really, REALLY hope this isn’t true. 

Thunderbolts production shuts down due to the industry’s lack of progress in meeting the demands of the Writer’s Guild.

What’s up next?
