YES! I'm reading X-Men comics again. It's good to be back! Excited for all these new changes in the Marvel Universe and see where they lead. It's also good to be back on UA-cam. I've been teaching myself to shoot and edit over the past few weeks and am gearing up to begin WAR CLUB starting 04.19.2020. Based on Robert Green's 33 Strategies of War, War Club will teach you how to more successfully deal with conflict in your everyday life. Hope to see you in class :D
I am loving the fresh new vibe ,and the eleven from stranger things season one haircut .I also hope you post more often this year and just I am ready for war class .I purchased the book by Robert Green a couple weeks back in preparation,I can't wait to begin class👍.
Hey I think she wears the green dress because its sexy and like you said she is freaky telepath red head. Its symbolic. 60s dress for modern revolution.
Thank YOU! Everyone else who's covered this has done it in order of publication, rather than just telling the ACTUAL story. You alone have expressed how fun and genuinely cool it all is. So yeah. Thanks.
To be fair, Wanda was being manipulated by her brother and Doctor Doom, while being kind of possessed by the Life Force. Plus, Agatha messed with her head more than once about her babies. Also, she repowered them all in AvX.
Tbh I'm glad Danika is back to doing comic books talks. She breaks these down in a really casual , consumable way and I really enjoy / appreciate that.
I was tearing up when the mutants are celebrating and Dazzler is putting on a light show. Thank you for making me excited about reading X-Men again Mr. Hickman.
The lady’s back again! After yet another age not appearing on UA-cam. Every time she vanishes for a long time I get worried she’s having a financial or emotional meltdown or something 😆 but then she comes back all happy again. Danika’s a regular on Twitch right? Which I don’t watch...this is a Twitch broadcast transferred to UA-cam, yeah?
So glad to see you back covering Xmen.Is there any way to get more Epic Xmen 80s. Everyone covers Xmen history up to Dark Phoenix but never beyond. Would love to see your interpretation of the outback run!
X-Men ended with #500. These characters in Hackman’s...I mean...Hickman’s run are the Brotherhood of Krakoan Mutants. I’ll come back when it’s done and the real X-Men come back.
I was so happy to see this. My daughter and I (she is 13) have been re-watching all of your early X-Men vids just this week for the 4th time (we are both fans) and to see you doing another round is so great. It's what brought us to your channel to begin with and feels like its coming back full circle. Incidentally, we loved your X-Men and Phoenix videos about a thousand times more than the Fox stuff.
Finally! Your X-Men coverage is the best. I'm loving the Dawn of X. Marauders is so good, definitely check that title out. Glad to see this video posted.
I have missed you so much. You’re the reason I picked up a copy of Dune this last Christmas. That beautiful gold edition with the blue edges. I’m especially happy to see its just you. You and your fans. Your voice has always been the one I wanted to listen to. Your opinions. Your thoughts. That’s what makes this work! Thank you for coming back!
I've been reading them since day 1 and I swear it's been one wild ride that got me back into the X-Men comics. Wasn't a fan of the Gold and Blue, Red and Black titles. But this one hooked me.
So glad to see you back, all strong and vibrant - reading comics again, and hopefully over/past whatever was troubling you a year ago. Two thumbs up 👍 👍
Man it’s awesome to hear her talk about comics again like when the show first started I know you’ve gotten into other things since but the hot comics episodes where the fkn best
Great to see you cover X-Men again. They mean as much to you as they do to me, and for most of the same reasons. Great to see your take on the whole Hickman reboot. Thank you, and keep up the great work.
I'm glad to hear you being positive about the X-Men again. When you said recently that the X-Men are back at Disney but by the time they make a movie that *super hero movies will be so played out* that who gives a f*ck, it was a real downer. *Bald Danika seems far more happy and positive* about a lot of things and I'm loving it.
Danika, I am glad you really liked the series. It's always nice to see something make you happy. I was less than enthused. I thought the Moira MacTaggart mutant reveal was the best part of the story and there was a lot that kept my interest. However, I hated the fact that apparently the X-Men have become separatist supremacists who have broken death. I don't like where things are going, but I am dart in and out and see if something holds my attention.
Apocalypse. Is. Not. Adorable. He is eternal. I wouldn't get too attached. I'm pretty sure there's one more universe reset coming from Moira. The story is fun, but there's a sinister-ness to it all. Something is off. The X-Men aren't really behaving like themselves, Resurrection is a bit strange, gladiator games, rebirth rituals, the economic manipulation... I think it's going to come down and be a full Marvel universe reboot... Assuming Marvel survives this.
It's so great to see the X-Men as a whole back to A-list status. I'm curious though: how did things turn out for mutants in Moira's first 2 lives? Could Moira's involvement be part of the problem? Her first life was perfectly normal, and as a result, we don't know how things went down. The world seemed pretty peaceful, and you'd think something like mutants rising to prominence or being wiped out would be a major newsworthy event that she would recall. Ditto for her 2nd life where she dies on a plane heading to Xavier after he outs himself as a mutant. Given his interview seemed similar to the one he gave in Morrison's run, I guess we can assume certain events that we've seen in the comics did happen? Or was it drastically different? Either way, I've got faith in Hickman, and this is the most fascinating the X-Men have been in 10 years.
Loved this, Ms. Danika. 🖤🙏Awesome as always. Can't wait for you to write and draw your own X-men. 🙃 Love that you're creating your own academy. That's how I see you; a professor for us outcasts, weirdos and loners. 🤟
Jesus Christ...welcome back. Welcome the fuck back, dudette. I've missed the shit out of your very unique take on comic books. Particularly X-Men. I mean to say "GODDAMN, I'VE MISSED YOU, COMIC BOOK GAL 19!" Lavender Jack...Swooping On Down.
Not acknowledging Dazzler is Omega - per Hickmans definition - or that she doesn't need The Five to resurrect stinks. Yet another era that she is being sidelined when she should be getting overdue development and key face time.
D M what about what Bendis did with her in HOM, I think she was the most famous person in the world. She became a celebrity, possibly at the cost of her powers though
@@ohiorizzler69 Every time Bendis touches her it is a joke. HoM? Cameo appearance as a talk show host losing her powers. BotA? She's made president and killed the same issue. UXM? Her first appearance as an agent of SHIELD and he puts her in coma while Mystique impersonates her. Bendis needs to stay far away from Dazzler.
Tbf he hasn really acknowledged her at all. Theres a billion mutants Hickman has to balance and place in this new status quo but I bet we'll get to Dazzler eventually.
Mutant Nation? Been there, done that. Twice. X and Magneto teaming up? Been there, done that. Combining those with a coveted resource and reincarnating seer? Now, that IS new!
I'd love to read an X-Men comic written by you. You know these characters better than anyone. You're right about jean in that no one knows how to write her. I totally think you can do it! When you think you're ready go for it.
I completely agree with your opinion on Giant Size X-Men Jean/Emma Frost. I had the exact same reaction reading it. It was okay but really did just feel like a rehash of a story I've already read but not done as well. Sad because I was REALLY looking forward to it more than any other X-title because I love Jean and Emma. I was hoping for lots of dialogue and seeing what the relationship between the two of them is like on Krakoa but of course there is no dialogue so that was sad. Unfortunately I don't think there is going to be an issue 2 for Jean and Emma because each of the Giant Size issues focus on a different character. The next one is Nightcrawler then the third is Magneto and after that I think it's Storm. Other than that though I'm loving Hickman's wild X-ride and can't wait for more.
Back when I was growing up in the 90s the xmen were EVERYTHING. Avengers were no where to be found. It's nice to see them get the respect they deserve. Btw I haven't seen you in a while but you look great with a shaved head. I would never be able to pull this look off haha
This is pretty much exactly my experience with the X-Men over the past few years. I picked up an issue every so often just to see if it was getting any better, and for a long time it just wasn't. Now Hickman's on it and suddenly it's back, it's fun to be an X-Men fan again. I just wish it wasn't dependant on the corporate bullshit with Disney and Fox blowing over. What if years from now Disney decides the X-Men aren't marketable enough, will the comics start dropping off all over again? It's so fickle and vexing.
Your voice and smile get me through the day, thank you for what you do for the entire sci-fi community and all us 50!year old geeks who think there 25 still!! Or stillgar

Please stick around for this run.
Living on an Island with other mutants Xavier 's dream came true finally !
about F@@king time !
Hey I think she wears the green dress because its sexy and like you said she is freaky telepath red head. Its symbolic. 60s dress for modern revolution.
Hey are you gona do a video covering whats going on with whole comic industry collapsing?
I almost got teary eyed from this video. Mutant mamma is back 😭
thats kinda bigoted of you....misgendering is hate speech
Best cyclops moment in the whole run, when he knows it is a suicide mission,
"Does it need to be done?"
"then it will be done"
for real tho
'I feel like... Hickman has not done enough drugs' - best out of context summary ever
Thank YOU! Everyone else who's covered this has done it in order of publication, rather than just telling the ACTUAL story. You alone have expressed how fun and genuinely cool it all is. So yeah. Thanks.
ur v welcome bb
@@comicbookgirl19 my friend Laura ALWAYS calls me bb lol we're from Montgomery
Rob did a really good job.
This new era has me reading every single X-book, I’ve never done that before now.
Ajay Fiction you and me both! Cannot get enough! I laugh when people complain about too many books, I love them ALL
I always love your enthusiasm when it comes to media especially x-men, i can't wait to see more 😁
To be fair, Wanda was being manipulated by her brother and Doctor Doom, while being kind of possessed by the Life Force. Plus, Agatha messed with her head more than once about her babies. Also, she repowered them all in AvX.
Mother of comics is baaaaack, I’ve missed you
Tbh I'm glad Danika is back to doing comic books talks. She breaks these down in a really casual , consumable way and I really enjoy / appreciate that.
It’s so great to see you excited about the XMen again!!!
thornweather we all are stoked! This is a great time to be a mutie fan, especially after the whole fox decade
I was tearing up when the mutants are celebrating and Dazzler is putting on a light show. Thank you for making me excited about reading X-Men again Mr. Hickman.
When someone tries to tell me that wanda isnt the villain of wandavision 42:20
42:15-42:30
This is probably what Exodus is teaching the mutant kids, word for word.

I’m glad to hear things are getting better for you.
X-Force has been awesome as well. They are giving Domino a ton of shine
X-force (and Marauders) more like funny and trashy B-movie
All Xavier had to do was embrace mutant supremacy and create an ethnostate.
Who knew?
This comment tho
#Magnetowasright
It's not an ethnostate though. The more accurate term would be genostate.
@@FlameForgedSoul humans were right
So glad to see you back covering Xmen.Is there any way to get more Epic Xmen 80s. Everyone covers Xmen history up to Dark Phoenix but never beyond. Would love to see your interpretation of the outback run!
Been waiting to hear your take on this
@Jake Hoberg 1983 patreon got access a few days early. Danika is really active on there and I highly recommend their subscription.
X-Men ended with #500. These characters in Hackman’s...I mean...Hickman’s run are the Brotherhood of Krakoan Mutants. I’ll come back when it’s done and the real X-Men come back.
Thank you for distilling this House of X Run. I’ve been curious about it for awhile. Now, I’ll definitely check it out.
The X-men finally got what they wanted, Disney finally got what they wanted, and the FANS finally got what they wanted
I was so happy to see this. My daughter and I (she is 13) have been re-watching all of your early X-Men vids just this week for the 4th time (we are both fans) and to see you doing another round is so great.

Your X-men videos are the best! Was there ever a part 2 to your Cyclops video?
That female professor X teaching the children. Thank you for a good retelling of a story in these difficult times! 💋
You have no idea how long I have been waiting for your take on HOX/POX! Worth the wait!
At around 30:25, I felt like you started reading me the greatest X-Men bedtime story of all time. I love Apocalypse.
Finally! Your X-Men coverage is the best. I'm loving the Dawn of X. Marauders is so good, definitely check that title out. Glad to see this video posted.
X-Men haven't just jumped the Shark, they've jumped the Megalodon... into space... lol
Big Facts. They aren’t the X-Men anymore. They’re the Brotherhood of Krakoan Mutants. 🤣
You can get the Krakoan font on this website: www.pasku.com/producto/krakoan-font/
I have missed you so much. You’re the reason I picked up a copy of Dune this last Christmas. That beautiful gold edition with the blue edges. I’m especially happy to see its just you.

That kinda sounds creepy. Especially with such a profile picture.
I can listen to you talk about the X-men all day long. I just love your love for them
That Dazzler and Siryn moments is so great. It just embodies joy.
I've been reading them since day 1 and I swear it's been one wild ride that got me back into the X-Men comics. Wasn't a fan of the Gold and Blue, Red and Black titles. But this one hooked me.

I actually got the trade that collected all 12 issues and they was put in order so I felt was a great afternoon read
@31:03 Danika's Apocalypse impression talkin bout *"we're better than these humans"* killed me! 👍# 1376
Apocalypse. Is. Not. Adorable.
He is eternal.
I wouldn't get too attached. I'm pretty sure there's one more universe reset coming from Moira. The story is fun, but there's a sinister-ness to it all. Something is off.

Well they are plant people, and since they can revive themselves morality be damned. They are damaged goods.
Real tea, the reason why Jean "hates" Dark Phoenix and Madelyne, is because they exposed the REAL Jean Grey.
It's so great to see the X-Men as a whole back to A-list status.
I'm curious though: how did things turn out for mutants in Moira's first 2 lives? Could Moira's involvement be part of the problem?

Aw shit Danika it’s great to see you again it’s been forever since your last video ! 😃😃😃 love your X-men videos by the way.
Glad you like Cable. Cable and young Nate Grey have always been my favorite X-Men characters

Love this series and love you! Favourite X-men Storm, she looks so good in the series and I hope they give her some shine in this series!
That intro had me thinking "Hey all you cool cats and kittens!"
Boy'o boy! Ive been WAITING for your opinion of this for a long time. And its 4/20? About to smoke a blunt and chill with this video. Thanks CBG19
Yay I missed your X-men talks!
What did you think about the retooling of the Omega level mutant concept?
I was waiting on your opinion of this. Plus you opened me up to the Dune references. Thank you for the review!!
always a pleasure hearing you gush about the xmen
I couldn't wait for you to review this, I'm so excited!
44:16. I thought she said "Then, the other part of Krakoa came back - Iraq."
Now we’re getting the Fall of X - the end of the Krakoan Era. Expect a reboot.
I haven't read a marvel title in decades. HOX and POX brought me back.
House of X and Powers of X and The Swords storyline were all amazing
FINALLY!!!!! I've been waiting for your review of this EPIC EVENT!!!!!!
I really can't wait to get back in to this, first time in a while.
Having Jean Grey back in her classic Marvel Girl outfit is a great unexpected thrill.
THANK YOU! I’ve been making the dune connection for almost a year, and you’re the FIRST person I’ve seen online to make it!
I completely forgot about Kitty on the council. Her not being able to use the Krakoa portals and becoming captain/smuggler of her own ship was weird.
Damn. Please do so many more of these videos
Hickman is the best at world building. The depth of his work is stunning
YAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!! I've been waiting for this since December! ❤️🤓
Everybody's like,You sonofabitch...I'm in.
Except Namor.lol
Back when I was growing up in the 90s the xmen were EVERYTHING. Avengers were no where to be found. It's nice to see them get the respect they deserve.
Btw I haven't seen you in a while but you look great with a shaved head. I would never be able to pull this look off haha
Your perfectly spherical head is like a work of art. Hotness
"I'm so emotional" sips scotch
so excited you're talking x-men again! hox and pox so good. new mutants and marauders are current fave series. hellions #1 very good also
So excited to watch this! I’ve been dying to hear your opinion about this particular run of the X-Men.
I love how passionate you are about this. This is the way....
CBG19's X-MEN OBSESSION IS OFFICIALLY BACK
This is pretty much exactly my experience with the X-Men over the past few years. I picked up an issue every so often just to see if it was getting any better, and for a long time it just wasn't. Now Hickman's on it and suddenly it's back, it's fun to be an X-Men fan again. I just wish it wasn't dependant on the corporate bullshit with Disney and Fox blowing over. What if years from now Disney decides the X-Men aren't marketable enough, will the comics start dropping off all over again? It's so fickle and vexing.
I have been waiting for this video since the HOX/POX debut ! Great breakdown! I want to hear more about your opinions.
very Cool I am glad to see you have come back to the comics!! They're are so good
Loving the Alien3 look.
I also enjoyed the Krakoa run of X-Men. i didn't read all of it but I read a fair bit of it.
Your voice and smile get me through the day, thank you for what you do for the entire sci-fi community and all us 50!year old geeks who think there 25 still!! Or stillgar
