It’s turkey time with the X-Men! This week, we’re carving into Uncanny X-Men #308, a Thanksgiving classic where the team sets aside the danger to enjoy some much-needed downtime… or at least tries to. We’re talking raking leaves, chaotic football games, and Gambit rocking impossibly tight yellow bike shorts (you’re welcome). As Scott and Jean take a romantic stroll down memory lane, complete with flashbacks and emotional revelations, we debate who’d make the ultimate Thanksgiving dinner guest list, which mutant would burn the stuffing, and who’s guaranteed to bring the drama. Plus, we break down how Jean and Scott steal the spotlight during Xavier’s heartfelt speech with their big engagement announcement—cue the mutant mayhem and awkward congratulations. So grab your leftovers and join us for this fun-filled holiday special, where X-Men antics meet Thanksgiving traditions!
Uncanny X-Men #308 was released on January 1st, 1994. In that same time:
- The top film at the time: Mrs. Doubtfire
- The top song at the time: “Hero” by Mariah Carey
Uncanny X-Men #308 is written by Scott Lobdell with art by John Romita Jr. Find us on the AIPT Podcast Network and wherever you listen to podcasts: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Podcast Addict, and more.
