Calling all Marvel fans! Spread the word because your dream podcast is now a reality! In this podcast, we talk about Marvel and the way it has molded and shaped the very world we live in today. This topic is huge, and there is so much to discuss! Get exci
Enjoy the episode!!
Today, I discuss the 2nd issue that the Goddess of Thunder was in, and I also talk about some of the comic series that I am currently reading.
Today, I talk about the Multiverse and try to explain what some of this stuff means. In this episode, we cover things like: Dimensions, Realities, Realms, Universes, Timelines, the Sacred Timeline, the Gap Junction, and Incursions. It may be confusing, but this is what we Marvel Fans sign up for when we dedicate our time to the Marvel Universe. We place ourselves in a Multiverse…a Multiverse of madness.
Today, Tom and I talk about a lot of Marvel stuff, and I even quiz Tom on his Marvel knowledge. Tom compares some Marvel characters to some Simpson characters, we talk about some Marvel stuff, and I quiz him. At the end, I deliver some of my theories about Ms. Marvel tying into Secret Invasion. Enjoy!
Today, I talk about a lot of different Marvel things. I talk about the new comics down on Marvel Unlimited; the announcement that Wonder Man is getting his own Disney+ show; new Marvel books that I got; the Thunderbolts movie; and the announcement that Kevin Feige made that it will be revealed very soon where the MCU is headed. Get ready, people. The MCU is going places. And we're going with it.
Today, I pair Marvel character with the sitcom Parks and Recreation. Parks and Rec is a very feel good show, and the characters have a lot in common with a lot of different Marvel characters. Ever wondered who Leslie Knope or April Ludgate compare to in the Marvel Universe? Wonder no longer, my loyal listeners! Friends, Waffles, and Work!
Today, I talk with my mom about Marvel stuff. She's not a huge fan, so it's interesting to hear her point of view on this stuff, since she's not as into it. What I think this episode shows is that, even though she's not a huge fan, she likes some aspects of Marvel and some of the movies and shows they create. Marvel really does have a place for everyone.
Today, I talk about my new Legends figures (Thor Odinson and the Mighty Thor AKA Jane Foster). I also deliver some of my thoughts on the Ms. Marvel show (which I love, btw), and I also talk a bit about the new trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder, which I'm calling: “Oh Good, We're Finally Talking About the Flying Goats”. Snappy title, am I right?
Today, I talk about Jane Foster, mainly focusing on her first appearance as the Goddess of Thunder. Get ready for some deep dives into Jane Foster's comics because this is going to be a wild and amazing ride. Jane Foster represents what it truly means to be a hero. A toast of mead to Jane Foster!
Today, I talk about all sorts of stuff. So much news, am I right? Where to begin? Ah, yes: First, I discuss all the new comics on Marvel Unlimited this week. Then, I share some general thoughts on the Ms. Marvel show, talk about Spider-Man: No Way Home coming back to theaters with extended scenes, that awesome picture from Loki Season 2 that we got, plus all the new upcoming projects and when to expect them.
Today, I discuss the first issue of She-Hulk in all its glory. I also discuss some of how her character has progressed over the years. Let's get hyped for her upcoming TV show, y'all!
Today, we talk about the wonderful show Moon Knight. Victor is a new guest on the show, who will most likely be a very regular guest on this show. Moon Knight was an incredible show, taking us on a wild journey through both life and death. We traveled through London and Cairo and even the Duat and made it out at the other side. Simultaneously, we were also watching a beautiful relationship unfold between Marc and Steven, as we watched Marc learn to accept himself. Every part of himself. This was a show for the win, True Believers. And we don't let you forget it.
Today, we discuss the Moon Knight arc #1-14, also known as “Welcome to New Egypt”. This arc's twists and turns make for a wild ride of a comic series, but its heartfelt moments are what really make this comic series soar. “We are Moon Knight. And we never needed you.” ~Moon Knight (Jeff Lemiere)
Welcome to the Marvel Project Lookback, where I talk about all the Marvel Projects currently out right now. We are going in release order, starting with, of course, our favorite genius billionaire playboy philanthropist, Iron Man! Robert Downey Jr. breathed life into Tony Stark many, many years ago in 2008, but he still lives on, his legacy stretching around the globe. Tony begins this movie as a jerky, stubborn, flirtatious, money-loving billionaire. He emerges a jerky, stubborn, flirtatious, money-loving billionaire, but with a little more of a caring heart, a little more of an understanding of the world. He's gained empathy. It is wonderful to see Tony Stark begin his journey in this movie, as he grows to become what everyone can rightfully call a hero.
Today, I discuss my top ten favorite moments in the MCU. There are so many wonderful, witty, hilarious, heart wrenching, and heart warming moments in the MCU, and I pick out and discuss my top ten. For years, the MCU has been built on these incredible, moving moments, and it is hard to pick out just ten. There are moments that make us cheer and moments that make us cry. There are moments that make us laugh and moments that make us shout. The MCU is built on these moments, these scenes that live in our heads and in our hearts, that leave us with a sense of what the MCU is about and what it teaches us. So, as we look to these moments, take some time to think about what Marvel means to you. It means something different to everyone. There's no one right answer, and there is no wrong answer. For me, it's a declaration of hope and peace. It's a declaration of the fact that there are heroes out there, fighting for us, protecting us. We just don't see them, even when they're right in front of our eyes.
Today, I discuss one of the most controversial topics in Marvel right now: The romantic relationship between Loki and Sylvie. I know so many people are always curious to see with others say about this relationship, so I shall put no more in this description that probably only like two people take the time to read.
Today, I talk about my top five favorite villains of the MCU. Marvel has a wonderful collection of incredible, complex villains, and it was honestly hard to pick just five! But I was able to find some, luckily. For every good hero, there's an equally good villain hiding in their shadow.
Doctor Strange Supreme? Shuma-Gorath? Kang the Conqueror? Agatha Harkness? More Loki variants? America Chavez? The potential beginning of America Chavez and Kate Bishop's friendship?? At this point, who knows? I discuss everything we (might) know about Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, coming to theaters May 6. (If I were you, I'd take that release date with a grain of salt.) There are so many rumors, speculations, castings, and theories flying around that little place called the Inter Connected Web, and I discuss them all, plus that sweet new teaser trailer we've been treated to! Buckle up, fellow Marvel Fans! This one's gonna be crazy! And when I say crazy, I mean CRAZY. Hold on to your hats, people! Cuz here we go!
In this episode, I fill in all my Marvel Award categories with a guest star: Tom, from the podcast Tom's Short Scary Stories. 2021 was a big year for Marvel Studios, with all their incredible content, wonderful plot lines, and outstanding performances. We discuss it all and list our favorites. In this time of hardship, Marvel was there. When we needed a smile, they made us laugh. When we were feeling down, they gave us comfort. When we needed a friend, they gave us heroes. Marvel Studios has been a great way to just escape this past 2021 year. And as we brace ourselves and get ready to see what Marvel will bring us in 2022, remember sometime to look outside your window, and ask what you can do to help. Just like Sam Wilson is battling racism, just like Loki is battling the multiverse itself, and just like Spider-Man is battling to save lives, ask yourself: How can I change the world? Well, that's all I got for now, True Believers. Until next time: ‘Nuff said!
As a final goodbye to the brilliant year Marvel had in 2021, I am listing my top five favorite new additions to the ever growing cast of the MCU. This MCU year was incredible, in more ways than one. I think one of the many reasons I enjoyed it so much was because it was a little bit of joy in the COVID infested world we now live in. I hope Marvel brought you all as much happiness this year as it brought me, and I hope it continues to make you smile. This new year, stay strong, and never stop smiling. As Peter Parker said in What If…?: If we stop smiling when they can't, then we might as well be gone, too. Higher, Further, Faster, everyone. I'll see you in the stars.
What a great ending to this wonderful Marvel year! Hawkeye wrapped up beautifully, giving lots of characters the closure they needed and the strength to move on. Marvel Studios has given us so much this year: Laughs, smiles, frowns, cheers, and tears, and Hawkeye wrapped up this gift of a year with a delightful bow on top. Thank you, Marvel, for giving us this crazy year of unbelievably wonderful Marvel content.
This episode of Hawkeye gave us a holiday treat! What might that be, you ask? They gave us everything the MCU is renowned for and put it a wonderful gift of an episode, that was stunning, beautiful, emotional, and full of holiday cheer. Maya Lopez is still antsy to kill Ronin, after what they did to her father. Meanwhile, Clint is being torn between battling the Tracksuit Mafia while still wanting to get home in time for Christmas. And as if that isn't all enough, who is this mysterious “uncle” that they keep mentioning? Could it be Kingpin? Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine? Who's at the head of the pack? Oh, and while we're asking questions, what's up with Swordsman? Why was he sneaking around his fiancé‘s house? Hmmm. Something's up. And I bet dollars to donuts it's nothing we are going to see coming. The comic book for this episode is: “Secret Wars” from 1984.
Bro, what a great episode, right? Hawkeye Episode 2: Hide and Seek provided laughs, great fight scenes (even if they were just LARPing fights) and just overall fun and joy. Kate Bishop finally gets to meet her longtime hero Clint Barton. But not all goes according to plan. (Except giving Pizza Dog his name. Or, rather, his title of honor.) The Tracksuit Mafia is out for blood, specifically Ronin's blood. Clint is still trying to make up for his time as the hooded figure who terrorized the criminal underworld for years. And there's still something fishy going on with Jack. This episode had so many great tidbits, comebacks, and all out holiday fun! Happy Holidays, Bro! The comic book for this episode is: “Hawkeye” by Matt Fraction and David Aja.
Today, as we come up on the New Year, I talk about the legacy of Marvel. It is has given us so much and continues to give us more. Marvel is a world where we can find representation, happiness, fictional friends, and a wonderful world to explore. No matter what you do or who you are, the stories and the characters live on in you. What is so beautiful about this universe is that the stories never really end. Because we, all of us, the great big Marvel Family, keep them going. We keep them alive. All of this: All the laughs, all the tears, and all the smiles, began with an idea. An idea brought to life by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Who knew one idea could change the whole world? So today, let's honor Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Joe Sinnott, Steve Ditko, and all the thousands of other creators who gave us this whole wonderful, beautiful multiverse. If they could see the Marvel Universe today, I know in my heart, they'd be so dang proud.
The first episode of Hawkeye was a blast and an absolute joy! It delivered a seasonal warmth and tons of Christmas-y action. What's a Barton family Christmas look like? Probably not always like the one we're seeing now. What's Kate Bishop been up to all her life? Learning how to kick butt like a professional. Put those two together and what do you get? The answer: A lot of chaos and a lot of fun! And, really, who are we kidding? The real star of the show is Pizza Dog! And not only am I talking about Hawkeye, I'm discussing my thoughts on the official trailer of Spider-Man: No Way Home. Get ready, Spidey! The multiverse is no joke! (Unless you live in the Spider-Ham universe. Then it's a joke.)
Wow! There is so much stuff to unpack in Loki Episode 6: For All Time. Always. Betrayal, heartbreak, and all out multiversal war, all gathered together and tied with a ribbon. Loki and Sylvie finally arrive at their destination: The Citadel at the End of Time. But not all goes according to Sylvie's plan. According to the mysterious man behind the curtains, Sylvie and Loki have a choice to make: Rule the TVA or kill He Who Remains. When Loki and Sylvie are thrown on opposite sides of a disagreement, it seems as if things couldn't get any worse. Oh, but they do! With the multiverse now lying at our fingertips, possibilities are endless…but also dangerous. Make way for Kang the Conqueror, Ladies and Gents, as this episode ends with a bang…and the beginning of all out multiversal war. The comic book for this episode is “Runaways”.
Today, I talk about some of the reasons I think all of you awesome listeners should watch Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. It is so much fun and is extremely heartwarming and, at times, heartbreaking. Enjoy this 5 minute non-spoiler review of one of the best Marvel TV shows out there: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D!
Today, I talk about Loki Episode 5, titled: Journey Into Mystery. This episode is by far my favorite Loki episode of all time, and perhaps my favorite Marvel Disney+ episode of all time, rivaled only by WandaVision Episode 8. Loki Episode 5 took us deep into the dark depths of the Void, a place beyond time where everything that was pruned is sent to die. Oh, except for that Loki over there. And that one. And that one. Oh, and that one over there! Anyway, Sylvie quickly learns that Alioth is barring her way to the mysterious person who created the TVA. And elsewhere, back at the TVA, Ravonna begins to dig deeper into the creation of this twisted bureaucracy. Join me as I dive into all of its philosophical remarks, its action-packed fights, and the all out craziness of Alligator Loki! Enjoy!! The comic book for this episode is: “Eternals” by Kieron Gillen.
In this episode, I discuss Episode Four of Loki: The Nexus Event. This episode was a huge turning point for the show, what with lies being revealed and feelings sprouting for both Loki and Sylvie. This episode was full of humor, tenseness, reveals, shock, and downright “WOAH” moments. I discuss it all in this episode. The comic book for this episode is: “Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur”.
What a wild ride of a Loki episode! Today, I am talking about Loki Episode Three: Lamentis, which had so many great philosophical discussions, wonderful fight scenes, great witty lines, and an epic one shot towards the end. This episode of Loki takes us on a wild and crazy ride, between the bickering and fighting of Loki and Sylvie, the urgency to get off this doomed moon, and the many interesting and mysterious questions this episode brings up about the TVA. What's really going on? The comic book of the episode is: “Young Avengers”, the Kierron Gillen run.
Today, I take a deep dive into Loki Episode Two: The Variant. This episode is chock full of action, humor, and reveals, and I discuss it all. This episode is by far one of my favorite Loki episodes, and I discuss why. Loki is a troublemaker, and, in this episode, he makes sure you don't forget it. With salad making issues and the excitement of witnessing the destruction of Pompeii, the god of mischief is ready to take us on a totally wacky ride, and I'm not sure any of us were ready for it. The comic book of the episode is: “Secret Warriors”. **No spoilers for the Loki episodes that follow.
Today, I talk about the first episode of Loki, diving deep into the emotion and the humor of this first episode, which is probably the strongest first episode of any Disney+ Marvel series yet. For years, we've been wondering what happened to the God of Mischief during the time-travel charade of Avengers: Endgame. And, finally, we get our answer. And it's much more complicated that we could have ever thought. The comic book for this episode is: “Loki: Agent of Asgard”. **There are no spoilers for any Loki episodes that follow.
Time. Space. Reality… Today I dive into the wonderful and wacky show What If…, which has so many wonderful and crazy stories about some of our favorite Marvel characters. I touch on some of the lovely aspects to this series, where it could go in the future, and the mysteries of the Watcher. Where could this go next? There are infinite possibilities. But the Watcher is there to help, as he is your guide through these vast new realities. I talk about a little of his comic book history and how incredible and special of a character he is. Stay tuned for some more What If… related content.
Welcome to the 2nd episode, where I fulfill my Glorious Purpose and talk about my initial Loki thoughts, some theories, and what I would love to see in the 2nd season we're all eagerly waiting for! Stay tuned for some more Loki content, such as discussions about He Who Remains, Ravonna Renslayer, the Loki and Sylvie relationship, and so much more! The comic book of the episode is: “Journey Into Mystery”, the newer version.
On this first episode, I talk about why I love Hamilton and why I love Marvel. Both of these things are so incredible, lovely, and inspiring, and I cannot wait to talk about both of them endlessly. This is going to be so much fun! Thanks for listening!
