Ryan Krull of the fantastically funny X-podcast Homo Superior joins our host Lodro Rinzler for a one-shot where Psylocke fights Sabretooth!

We cover Uncanny X-Men 213 where Sabretooth is fresh off the Mutant Massacre and loose in the mansion just being scary y'all. Also in this episode:

• we cover the 25 classes of new mutants

• the weird almost relationship of Psylocke and Douglas Ramsey

• Psylocke has gotten with everyone on earth who bears the last name Summers

• Lodro has a voice (and a face) made for podcasts

• Sabretooth is invisible when wet

• we've all dated a psycho blast back in the day

Psylocke ends up joining the X-Men this issue while wearing her pajamas, which she then wears them as a superhero uniform from then on so as not to make it weird.
