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.

With us this week is comic writer/artist Karen Czap aka Karen Charm who was born during the celebration of the 100th issue of the All-New All-Different team and isht. is. wild.

We discuss Karen's outstanding comics Fütchi Perf and Four Years before diving into Professor X's very nasty no good day which begins with him waking up in studded bondage gear and ends with nerve gas and trying to get a homicidal teenager to not murder him.

Also in this episode:

• Banshee gets kicked in the face and then tea bagged by his past
• Firestar's first appearance is not a great look for anyone
• Professor X gets mugged, saved, dressed in bondage gear
• The Morlocks have a healer, but they should consider getting a therapist
• That kid murderer is Psylocke’s boyfriend and I guess we’re all okay with it now
• Empath just wants Professor X to like him
• Warpath will MURDER YOU (actually he won't he'll just take care of your boo boos and get you a warm blanket)
• Sexbots
• Emma Frost is the nicest person Firestar knows...maybe she only knows like 3 people?

What does any of this mean for Karen's future? Tune in to find out!
