the Trials of Telford Porter (Vanisher) and Gunther Bain (Unus the Untouchable)! Featuring Hussein Rashid, Steve Duda, Justin Wilder, Alicia Wilder, and Noelle Reed! Dec 03, 2022

Show notes

It's the untouchable mutants, Vanisher and Unus the Untouchable! Telford Porter and Gunther Bain are among the X-Me's very first foes, but among the ones least used over the years. Vanisher is the evasive thief, the trainer of pickpockets, the drug dealer, and the mercenary... Unus is the costumed wrestler who likes to rob local businesses... and we love these villains. Hear Chad, Steve, Alicia, Justin, Noelle, and Hussein put these characters on trial, and laugh. A lot.
