Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future.

This week co-host of the x-cellent podcast Homo Superior Khelan Bhatia joins our host for a massive fight between the X-Men, the Imperial Guard, a Soul Drinker and Lodro's liver.

Based on Khelan's birth month and year issue - Uncanny X-Men 107 - we get into the X-Men's chaotic fight to save reality as we know it from the Mad Emperor D'Ken. Also in this episode:

• how the only way to save humanity was founding the Homo Superior podcast

• Khelan is an enCyclopspedia

• the best x-crossover

• Lodro explains Inferno in 30 seconds

• Aliens!

• Wolverine gets his clothes burned off, so he steals someone else’s from their body

• Al Ewing should write a Soul Drinker mini

• Professor X and Lilandra are basically Jim and Pam on The Office

• Khelan would be a much better space emperor than Lilandra

...all this and which Summers brothers would Khelan date? What does this mean for his future? Tune in to find out!

Khelan Bhatia is one of the founders of Homo Superior, a podcast with five obsessive queers unapologetically dishing about the X-Men and the MCU. The co-hosts offer smart analysis and dumb jokes weekly. Khelan's been an X-Men fan for so long that he's practically an enCyclopspedia about mutant lore. When he isn't podcasting, he has a lucrative hobby as a DJ and works in political advocacy as a campaign director. He wanted it clear in his bio that he believes Magneto was right.

This week we are joined by the extremely talented comic book writer Al Ewing!

We discuss his incredible run on X-Men with a focus on the death and resurrection of Magneto, writing Storm as the powerhouse she is and creating a cohesive framework for the cosmic side of Marvel. It's not to be missed.

We dive into his birth month and year issue - Uncanny X-Men 106 - where the new X-Men have to fight the old X-Men who are just being jerks. Wait - are these even the original X-Men? Or are they manifestations of THE ENTITY? And what does any of this mean for Al's future? Tune in to find out!

Al Ewing is a British comic book writer known for his inventive storytelling, sharp dialogue, and deep character work across a whole range of genres. He gained recognition for his work at 2000 AD before making a significant impact over at Marvel Comics, where he redefined characters like the Hulk in Immortal Hulk, a critically acclaimed horror-infused exploration of identity and trauma. Ewing has also written extensively for Guardians of the Galaxy, X-Men Red, and The Ultimates, showcasing his ability to blend cosmic grandeur with thought-provoking themes. His work is celebrated for its literary depth, bold experimentation, and nuanced social commentary, making him one of the most compelling voices in modern comics. He can be found on Bluesky too!

In the early 2000s, long before Justin Otero and Michelle Waffle Otero became recognizable faces in the cosplay community, their shared love for comics and toys set the foundation for their unique bond, as they quickly realized their love for comics, classic 80s toys, and all things Marvel.

Their very first attempt at cosplay was at their nephew’s 5th birthday party. The theme? Superheroes! Very funny story, they tell it this week. Over the years, they’ve become not just partners in life but in their shared passions—whether it’s moderating panels, guesting on podcasts, or good ol fashioned toy hunting. They’ve grown into a team that embodies what it means to live and love in the world of comics and cosplay.

Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future.

This week we are joined by Scott Koblish who has done just about every job imaginable in the comics industry, although fans of this podcast likely know him as the artist for Deadpool, X-Men '92 and those amazing 60th anniversary of the X-Men covers. We talk about the first comic he ever read - Uncanny X-Men 138 - which is a perfect onramp for anyone wanting to know about the 1960s/1970s X-Men.
Also in this episode:

• Cyclops can fit his life inside a small laundry bag

• the funeral of Jean Grey!

• Cyclops longs to be as emotionless as Cerebro

• Colossus is necessary...for standing in the background or being in the foreground if you need to punch someone

• the classic moment where Cyclops convinces all of the Sentinels to go fight the sun

• Kitty Pryde shows up to the first day of school in a b*tch t-shirt

What does any of this mean for Scott's future? Well, this episode is one part X-Men Horoscope, one part insider look at how the comics industry works. Tune in for more!

Scott Koblish is an American Comic-book Artist who has worked on hundreds of comics for Marvel, Disney, Image, Dark Horse, Valiant, Boom and DC Comics. At Marvel, Scott worked on nearly every title they publish and just listing those titles would provide such a ridiculously long set of words that gazing upon it would make your eyes glaze over and your head hurt if he subjected you to it, but he had a 6-year run on Deadpool, where he co-created Deadpool 2099, so at least something he drew will likely outlive his heirs.

At DC, he pencilled and inked Batman: Gotham Nights, DC: Primal Age, Titans: Giant, Aquaman: the Becoming, and Flash Annual 2024 and How To Draw DC, and worked with George Pérez as an inker on Wonder Woman, Worlds’ Finest, The Brave And The Bold and Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds and inked Keith Giffen’s OMAC run. He is also the author of the book The Many Deaths of Scott Koblish.
