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.

This week on the show we have Sara Century, host of the Best Issue Ever podcast and co-writer for The Forgotten Five comic (which is truly a lot of fun).

We discuss her birth month and year issue - Uncanny X-Men 167 - which is basically mom and dad issues galore, as Professor X is transformed into a Brood Queen and the X-Men have to fight their way through the New Mutants to kill him! What?!

Also in this episode:

• Wolverine is hard to top
• What Sara would do with a time machine
• The X-Men meet-fight the New Mutants (it's like a meet-cute only it's not cute like, at all)
• Kitty Pryde, at the age of 15, is sent to assassinate her teacher with a lava lamp
• Body horror all over the place
• Captain Marvel commits genocide for fun
• The morality of killing the Brood
• Cyclops probably should’ve fucked off to space

All this plus someday Gandhi will be quoting Sara Century. What does any of it mean for Sara's future? Tune in to find out!
