Show Notes
Two nerd worlds collide, as we take a look at two fascinating crossover issues - 1996's "Star Trek/X-Men" and the 1998 follow-up, "Star Trek: The Next Generation/X-Men: Second Contact." With these sort of media mash-ups having a fairly spotty pop-culture record, we examine whether the novelty of having Marvel's Merry Mutants meet up with the crews of the Starship Enterprise actually pays off, and the crossovers' ultimate value to fans of both franchises.
But first, discussion of X-MEN: THE LAST STAND and DAYS OF FUTURE PAST star Elliot Page coming out as transgender, and - for some reason that even we can't explain - a LOT of talk about THE SINGLE GUY and TWISTER co-star Joey Slotnick. Yeah...just go with it, alright?
