Comics
The Uncanny X-Men
#3 Red Wave, Part Three: The Inside Man by Gail Simone & David Marquez
X-Men
#4 Upstarts by Jed MacKay & Netho Diaz
I've failed spectacularly at my goal of keeping up with my X-reading, so I've totally lost track of which issue is 'next' in publication order across the various books. But I do know that X-Men and Uncanny X-Men have a four-issue crossover coming up ("coming up" for me — it's finished publication), and that I have four issues of each book to go before said crossover, so if I just alternate issues between those two it will work out fine.
(I've still only read one issue of Exceptional X-Men, which has published up to #5, so I need to get a wriggle on with that separately.)
And attentive-eyed regular readers (not that I think I have any of those) will notice I've decided to change the way I list comics titles/issues. I liked acknowledging that individual issues have titles (as I do with TV episodes, for example), and it better reflects that the creative team might only be in effect for that one issue (something that definitely needs amending, based on the slightly awkward way I've listed the authors of collected volumes in the past).

Collection Count
Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.
Three additions this week — all new releases, all 4K. Two are Arrow catalogue titles — The Cell and Inglourious Basterds (slightly begrudgingly replacing my old Blu-ray — "begrudging" purely because it has some postcards I quite like but I have nowhere else convenient to store them. I may yet solve this problem before I sell it on) — and the other a brand-new release (The Wild Robot).
Number of titles in collection: 3,455 [up 2]
Of which DVDs: 991 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 2,464 [up 2]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 425 [up 3]
Number of discs in collection: 8,329 [up 4]
Number of films: 4,375 [up 2]
Number of additional cuts: 430 [up 2]
Number of TV episodes: 9,856 [no change]
Number of short films: 1,209 [no change]
See you next week, faithful reader.
