The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 27 - X-Men #20

Welcome to the X-Men, Rascally Roy Thomas - we hope you survive the X-Perience!

This time out, we're reintroduced to the dread Lucifer... as well as the tandem of ersatz X-Men, Blob and Unus the Untouchable?!  We'll talk a fair bit (probably too much) about the concept of "Fan Turned Pro" as it pertained to eventually making comics less accessible, storywise, to the more casual reader - Was X-Men #20 the first domino to tip in that direction?!

Plus: Our regular smattering of Silver-Age backmatter... including a rather snippy Stan Lee venting his frustration on Brand Ecch Comics - which facilitates your humble host recalling times wherein Brand Ecch Comics Podcasts lifted some of his own material!  Also: The X-Lapsed Mailbag and the presentation of our first ever "Fake-Ass No-Prize"!
