It's me, I was one of, if not the, first people to break the Krakoan cypher! (I'm @StAdkison referenced here) https://comicsxf.com/2019/07/19/dedicated-x-fans-crack-code-reveal-the-titles-of-the-dawn-of-x-books/#google_vignette

Ahh congratulations on having a brilliant mind! Did it feel great to crack it open?

It was pretty great! It was a pretty low part of my life, I had just been let go and was delivering pizzas. I got to feel like I was breaking news, and definitely had me pretty attached to especially the early era of Krakoa, like by deciphering the titles I somehow got to be a part of them.

I NEEEED your D&D binder oh my god. Also as a longtime Jacob Geller watcher it's unreal seeing you recommend him.

I've never commented on your newsletters before but I'm a HUGE fan of your work (and lowkey fell for my crush because we spent so much time talking about Excalibur and your Betsy and I'm getting them the issues of Betsy Braddock: Captain Britain that they don't have for their birthday) and it's just so fun reading about your time in the X-Office since the Krakoan age was kinda my intro to comics

Also quick question, in an article on the marvel website about upcoming pride variants, they confirmed there was an unannounced series coming up soon starring Betsy and Rachel. Do you have any info/guesses about who might be working on that or any details about it?

Jacob Geller is great! I always leave his videos with a new fixation.

Thank you for the kind words! I'll be telling more of these stories, I think. And I don't know who will be writing Betsy and Rachel coming up, but I'm eager to get a chance to be surprised with what happens with our favorite girls!

I am writing ten pages of Betsy and Rachel in the Wedding Issue/Pride celebration this year, so I hope you enjoy that. <3 thank you again, Callie!

Yeah like every five pages in early krakoa somebody was in a hot tub naked or was resurrected naked or was just having sex

OK, right, naked out of the eggs. Gotcha.

Thanks so much for the links! I'm a bit of a Youtube addict so these will go far, haha.

I'm familiar with Ginny D's channel, actually - her video on D&D character binders is what inspired me, haha!
