Welcome back Book Clubbers! And welcome in anyone who is new to the show! We hope you have enjoyed the journey so far, and are looking forward to the things to come. We have a dynamite duo of digests for you this week, so let's jump in!
First up, X-Men 139! Wolverine decides to cut the Canadian Government off at the pass and head up there before they come after him for the seventeenth time in five issues. He and Nightcrawler take off for the great white north and meet some old pals along the way. Not many people can claim to have man eating mythological beasts on their Boxing Day card list, but not everyone is Wolverine. He is the best he is at what he does, remember?
Next we dig our grubby little paws into X-Men 140! Now with more fiber! If you have ever wondered how you bridge two of the biggest stories in comic book history it's quite simple, go to Canada! That way tou can gran some Tim Horton's and poutine and enjoy the fisticuffs between Alpha Flight and everyone's favorite horror show, the Wendigo! Man, those Canadians are a hot mess when it comes to cannibalism, aren't they? Anyway, enjoy!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
