This week on Bronze and Modern Gods:We pay tribute to legendary comic book writer Peter David, whose groundbreaking runs on The Incredible Hulk, X-Factor, Spider-Man 2099, and Aquaman changed the landscape of comics forever. From Joe Fixit to the harpoon-handed King of Atlantis, his legacy is unmatched.Then—What If...? #105 is our Hot Book of the Week as rumors swirl that Stranger Things star Sadie Sink may be cast as Mayday Parker, aka Spider-Girl, in an upcoming MCU project!

Se nos fue Peter David, el "writer of stuff", o "escritor de cosas", según el mismo, por la gran variedad de cosas que escribía. Ademá, fue uno de los guionistas de comics más prolíficos de las últimas décadas. Su amplia bibliografía incluye desde una monumental ETAPA de doce años en Hulk, en la que se convirtió en el padre modern del personaje, siguiendo por otras etapas fundamentals en comics como Aquaman, Supergirl, Young Justice, y X-Factor, pasando por mucho Spider-Man, casi cualquier personaje de Marvel, y muchos de DC; hasta sus guiones para television live action y animada, y sus alrededor de cuarenta novelas de Star Trek. Y nos quedamos cortos, porque no mencionamos varias otras franquicias en las que trabajó, ni sus novelas y comics de autor. Además de un TITANES dedicado a su vida y obra, retocamos el sonido de una entrevista que MaGnUs le hizo en 2010 cuando David visitó Montevideo, y que prometió subtitular en algún momento. La entrevista, por supuesto, está en inglés, así que les recomendamos ir a YouTube si precisan los subtítulos. Incluso si hablan inglés, parte de la entrevista está un poco distorsionada, debido al proceso de retoque del audio viejo. Eso si, la entrevista es la única parte con subtítulos decentes (editados por completo), mientras que el resto del programa tiene subtítulos automáticos, que no son muy buenos. La entrevista si, está muy buena, modestia aparte. (Una cosa más, asegúrense de no seleccionar los subtítulos automáticos de YT, porque esos son totalmente automáticos, no tienen la parte editada de la entrevista.) Con música de The Beatles, Route 49 (interpretando a Buddy Guy), y Coheed and Cambria. Próximo programa: Magic Knight Rayearth (Parte I).

Bonjour!Today you have Jake flying solo to use you all as proxy therapists for his Peter Pan issues...I mean I am going to discuss the state of the MCU and why things are worse now than ever before. The MCU is moving into irrelevance faster than any could have imagined with well-reviewed shows and movies like Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, Daredevil Born Again and Thunderbolts all failing to make money or draw eyeballs in meaningful ways. Rumors and leaks from Spider-Man 4, Avengers Doomsday & Secret Wars, and Fantastic Four paint a very dour picture as Feige and his MCUnderlings JUST realized this week that they might have a creative quality issue and not just a production timing/quantity issue. With Andor's strong reception and good hype surrounding Gunn's upcoming Superman film, Marvel and the MCU are in danger of falling from their perch above Nerd fandom and I am beginning to doubt if Feige can do the one thing he needs to in order to get back on track -- make a good movie THAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE.Ball don't lie my friends and right now the MCU has zero game.

We take a look at a game that was supposed to be on the show back in the first 6 months but due one of the founders leaving the game put on the back burner till now.  Here we have a forgotten Spider Man game for the GBA that reminds of the days back when we use to get Marvel licensed games like candy from the gas station. Its a simple action platformer but has some interesting pixel art and some surprise villains.  Come hear what we think about this game.

The Superhero Show Show #586STAS - Silver Sable and the Wild Pack Silver Sable and the Wild Pack in Spider-Man: Their Animated Debut ExplainedThis week on The Superhero Show Show, our panel breaks down the thrilling first chapter of the epic arc “Six Forgotten Warriors” from Spider-Man: The Animated Series. The headline? The long-anticipated animated debut of Silver Sable and the Wild Pack—and they don't disappoint.The podcast crew examines how Silver Sable is portrayed in this episode as a strategic and lethal leader, commanding a paramilitary group that blurs the line between villainy and justice. Unlike her comic book roots where she sometimes teams up with Spider-Man, here she and the Wild Pack create immediate tension. We explore how her presence introduces a new geopolitical layer to the show, raising questions about loyalty, legacy, and hidden agendas.The Insidious Six: Return of the Animated MenaceIt wouldn't be a classic Spider-Man arc without some familiar foes. The Insidious Six (a renamed version of the Sinister Six due to broadcast standards) rear their heads again in this episode. The team breaks down how this crew—featuring Doctor Octopus, Chameleon, and others—adds to the episode's high-stakes narrative.We debate which versions of the team have made the biggest impact across media and whether this particular incarnation holds up. Plus, how do they stack up next to new players like Silver Sable and her Wild Pack?Aunt May: Clues from the PastSpider-Man's beloved Aunt May isn't just a background character this time. In Six Forgotten Warriors Chapter 1, she reacts strongly to certain names and locations, hinting at a mysterious past connection to the episode's central storyline.Our hosts dive into the theory that Aunt May may have more ties to the titular “forgotten warriors” than Peter knows. Could she be the key to understanding why these long-lost heroes are returning—and how Peter is connected to them?Who Is Keene Marlow? Marvel's Hidden War HeroOne of the episode's most intriguing reveals is the introduction of Keene Marlow, a war-era super-soldier whose history may go deeper than the show lets on. Comic fans might recognize the name as one of several pseudonyms tied to golden-age characters like the Destroyer.We explore the possibilities: Is Keene Marlow Marvel's way of retconning an alternate Captain America? What does his appearance say about the legacy of WWII-era heroes in the Spider-Man animated universe? And how could he be linked to both Silver Sable's mission and Aunt May's hidden past?Comic Lore Spotlight: Silver Sable and the Wild Pack OriginsFor listeners unfamiliar with her comic roots, Silver Sable first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #265 (1985). She leads the Wild Pack, a team of elite mercenaries working for her company, Silver Sable International. Often straddling the line between anti-hero and hired gun, Sable has teamed up with Spider-Man, Captain America, and others when their goals align.In the animated series, her portrayal is just as complex—neither villain nor traditional hero—making her debut a perfect match for the morally gray atmosphere of Six Forgotten Warriors.FAQ: Silver Sable and the Wild Pack in Spider-ManWho is Silver Sable in Spider-Man: The Animated Series?She is portrayed

A decade ago, Zach Borton had a lightbulb moment when studying energy economics at Ohio State University: the grid was trending toward decentralization. That realization set him on a path that would eventually lead him to Colorado, where he now serves as DER services manager at Platte River Power Authority.Platte River's 2024 integrated resource plan includes an ambitious goal: 30 megawatts of virtual power plant capacity by 2030. But building a VPP across multiple utility territories isn't just about technology -- it's about coordination, customer engagement, and breaking down organizational silos.This week on With Great Power, Zach explains the technical architecture behind Platte River's VPP strategy, which relies on two interconnected systems: grid derms and edge derms. He also discusses the challenges of aligning five different organizations, the importance of seamless customer enrollment, and why he believes curiosity-driven leadership is his superpower in the energy transition.With Great Power is a co-production of GridX and Latitude Studios.  Subscribe on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere you get podcasts. For more reporting on the companies featured in this podcast, subscribe to Latitude Media's newsletter.Credits: Hosted by Brad Langley. Produced by Erin Hardick and Mary Catherine O'Connor. Edited by Anne Bailey. Original music and engineering by Sean Marquand. Stephen Lacey is executive editor. The Grid X production team includes Jenni Barber, Samantha McCabe, and Brad Langley.TRANSCRIPT:Brad Langley: Back in the early 2010s, apps skyrocketed in popularity. Apple had just launched its famous "There's an app for that" commercial, and within a few years, more than a million apps were available for download in the app store.Commercial clips: Ever wish you could really read people's emotions? Well, now there's an app for that. Don't have a great voice or any real musical talent? Well, there's an app for that too. You want to get the potholes filled? Well, there's an app for that. There's an app for that...Brad Langley: Zach Borton's family was right there with the rest of America, feverishly downloading apps to manage finances or track the weather or achieve personal fitness goals.Zach Borton: Fitbits were becoming popular and my mom and dad would all compete against different steps, and we wanted to bring that kind of competitive element to the energy space.Brad Langley: At the time, Zach was studying business and sustainability at The Ohio State University.Zach Borton: Most of my classmates were going down the road of corporate social responsibility, sustainability reporting, but I took an energy economics course and that kind of shifted my path.Brad Langley: As part of that course, Zach was presented with some graphics of the power system. One showed the traditional energy value chain with big centralized generation. Another showed the declining cost of rooftop solar and an upward trend for installations.Zach Borton: I realized at that moment we're going from this horse and buggy to car event. Every few generations will have that shift, and I wanted to be a part of that shift.Brad Langley: After graduation, Zach and two friends decided to launch their own energy-focused app, the idea was to show people the impact of their environmentally focused investments.Zach Borton: What we were trying to build is a visualization tool to track environmental metrics such as carbon saved or trees planted, and also kind of that competitive nature of seeing what your friends were investing, what types of projects they were investing in, and then competing with your friends or tracking that with your friends to drive that competitiveness.Brad Langley: Unfortunately, for Zach and his friends, their app didn't make millions, but it did motivate Zach to keep working on some of the big complex problems unfolding in the power sector. So he took a job at American Municipal Power in Columbus, Ohio.Zach Borton: I was a power supply engineer. There was learning kind of the nuts and bolts on how to serve a community with generation, really how to stack those assets for energy, capacity, and transmission. But really despite everything I was learning, I kept going back to those two graphics from that energy economics course.Brad Langley: He just couldn't get one question out of his head. How would the legacy power system interact with all these new DERs? And he wasn't the only one thinking about it.Zach Borton: There was utility of the future white paper coming out of MIT, and so we were really going through that and understanding rather than a centralized approach from these large generators, how can we hedge against energy, capacity, and transmission from within the load?Brad Langley: Once Zach locked into this problem, he just couldn't let it go. So he headed west to Colorado where he now works at a public power utility helping build a virtual power plant.Zach Borton: My job is to take distributed energy resources and make use of them as we transition to a non-carbon grid.Brad Langley: This is With Great Power, a show about the people building the future grid, today. I'm Brad Langley. Some people say utilities are slow to change, that they don't innovate fast enough, and while it might not always seem like the most cutting edge industry, there are lots of really smart people working really hard to make the grid cleaner, more reliable and customer centric. This week I'm talking to Zach Borton, the DER service manager at Platte River Power Authority, a public power utility that serves the communities of Estes Park, Fort Collins, Longmont, and Loveland in Colorado. Platte River provides wholesale electricity generation and transmission for its member communities, each of which has its own local electric utility. So a major part of Zach's job is figuring out how to build a VPP across all of those different utilities.Zach Borton: So each have their own technology suite, which makes integrations maybe a little bit more difficult. So we're all at different paths in this integration and technology suite, but getting there is going to require more collaboration and breaking down those silos.Brad Langley: I wanted to dive into the mechanics of building this kind of VPP, but first I asked Zach how the initiative came about and how Platte River planned to break down those utility silos. So let's dig into your work at Platte River. Platte River's 2024 Integrated resource plan includes 32 megawatts of VPP by 2030, which is a significant amount. Tell us about that project. How did the initiative come about?Zach Borton: Yeah, so it can all kind of go back to the 2018 resource diversification policy. In that policy, there's a few things that line out how we can get to a non-carbon future, but it really suggests better integration and coordination across the systems from the generation transmission system down to the distribution. So senior managers, utility directors, and a few different public engagement sessions really sparked this vision and guiding principles for a DER strategy. Next came kind of a gap analysis, so we tried to understand what systems we have today and what we need, and so this really showed us where we need to go with how to make this technology work. Finally, we got to that potential study, which you saw in the 2024 IRP. This showed us kind of the market size and the potential and really gives us a goal to hit. It tells us what types of programs we should run and where we should head into that 2030 mark that you said, 30 megawatts.Brad Langley: And what is your role as DER services manager on the project? What are you specifically tasked with?Zach Borton: It's really trying to coordinate and develop these programs with our owner communities. We can think about our strategy in two different approaches. It's really that best thinking available today, which you can see in the SEPA article Decoding DERMS. It's going to require two different systems, and that's the grid DERMS and the edge DERMS. But really I want to circle back to VPP isn't just a piece of software, it's a utility strategy. It's a system level approach that brings together people, technology and data to orchestrate this cleaner and more flexible grid.Brad Langley: So we've established there's two main components to this. There's the grid DERMS and there's the edge DERMS. Talk me through specifically what the grid DERMS is doing as well as what the edge DERMS is doing.Zach Borton: Absolutely, yeah. So we can think about the grid DERMS as the brain of the future utility operation. It's going to hold our network model. It's going to monitor the state of the distribution in real time, say watching for those stress points and identifying where flexibility could be made available. Some of this technology is in place today, but a lot of this needs to be developed over the next several years, whereas the edge DERMS manages the customer side. It's going to help us enroll devices into the programs, optimize them, and then deliver those optimized energy shapes, load shapes or blocks into the grid DERMS as kind of like, here's a block at this hour. Here's the shape that you can use here for this stress point, and together these two systems kind of coordinate those individual devices into actionable blocks.Brad Langley: Can you go into more detail in terms of what those components are? I assume it's a mix of hardware and software, but any specific technologies you're able to call out.Zach Borton: When we think about our owner communities, they're kind of laying the foundation for the grid DERMS for that distribution system awareness, whether that's smart metering, switching, things like that. We need to build out that process with our owner communities to bring in those data points and make that distribution grid a little bit more intelligent. We can think about the future of advanced distribution management. When we think about the edge DERMS, there's a lot of processes and people involvement: enrolling customers and engaging with those customers. Obviously there's a lot of software optimization on the backend, but that's where we lean on our partners.Brad Langley: So two distinct yet connected systems for owner communities. What kind of challenges are you either experiencing or do you foresee in making this program a reality?Zach Borton: There's quite a bit of challenges. I'd say one of our biggest challenges is aligning across the five organizations. It's sometimes hard enough to break down the department silos, but then breaking down the five organization department silos is really complicated. So everyone might agree on this goal of a functional customer friendly VPP, but getting there in sync is the hard part, which kind of brings us to the next challenge, which is a unified vision and consistency. Like I said, we have incredibly talented people working on this from all sides, but aligning on a common path with consistency is critical. We may ask, why is that so important? Well, we risk confusing the customer if we're changing things as we go or sending mixed messages. So we need to really build that trust and participation with our customers and our own communities. That brings us kind of to the third point, which is the customer patience and experience.We're building something new and with that comes unavoidable, really growing pains. So making the enrollment and engagement process as smooth as possible in that first year is going to be so important for us to scale to that 2030, 30-megawatt goal. And that's the last piece is that OEM maturity and industry coordination. Like OEMs are learning how to build and design for flexibility, but it's a learning curve and everyone's taken their unique approach. Whereas the utilities, I can call up a utility that has a similar goal to us and they'll share the lessons learned where I feel like some of the OEMs aren't sharing those lessons learned with each other.Brad Langley: It's an interesting point. We're big believers in partnerships in this space. I think partnerships are super important. Are you encouraging the OEMs to talk to each other? Because it's tricky, they might be competitive, but they're implementing similar programs, so lessons shared can be important. How do you navigate that? Are you finding openness for OEMs to be more collaborative or is it kind of a walled garden so to speak?Zach Borton: It seems like a walled garden, but I would like for all of us utilities to try to break that down and share like, Hey, we're trying to get to this non-carbon future and open up all of these opportunities for flexibility. And so I think if a lot of us will say that to the OEMs, maybe they'll start listening. So I think if we can band together and really get the OEMs to listen, we can get to this non-carbon flexibility future.Brad Langley: You mentioned you'll start enrolling customers early next year. Does that mean the project is complete? What are some of those stages or milestones that kind of happen before or after that? Maybe give us the one to two year look into the various stages of the program following customer enrollment?Zach Borton: Yeah, so I mentioned the two types of DERMS and there's kind of different working paths for each of those, but I'll kind of talk about the edge DERMS really enrolling customers there early next year. So I think we're breaking this strategy out into three different years. First year we really want to boost up the enrollment and awareness of these programs. So enrolling customers, boosting up satisfaction and increasing that program awareness. It's going to take many actions to get there, like streamlining that DER onboarding process and establishing incentive structures and engagement methods with our customer base. That's going to be critical for scaling the VPP all testing in that first year dispatches with a small number of megawatts and devices. In that next year, we're really going to be looking for analytics and post-event insight, so leveraging event data to better understand how we're forecasting and modeling DR.So we're going to lay out the infrastructure needed to capture dispatch data and analyze that across the systems, whether it's on the distribution or the generation transmission system. And then that third year is going to be building out scale. To get to that 2030 goal in the third year, we're really going to be trying to grow those legs and pick up our speed, and it's all going to be about scalability of the dispatch and optimization. I think this is where the edge DERMS becomes integrated with the grid DERMS. So as the grid DERMS is getting intelligent and connecting to all of those devices in the field, we'll build out that integration to kind of build this full VPP fully integrated using those historical insights. And really in that year, we start to see the real time grid data and the integrations.Brad Langley: How did the customers react to the VPP announcement? Are they excited about the prospect of integrating this type of technology? What was their overall sentiment towards the program when it was announced?Zach Borton: Yeah, absolutely. There's a lot of excitement around this. When we think about our customer base, they love technology. We have a lot of EVs in our service territory. We have a lot of solar. We're starting to see that solar being paired with storage. So I think there's a lot of interest in helping us get to that non-carbon goal. And it's really the foundation we've built over the past 50 years, our community ownership, our collaborative mindset, and a long-term vision. We're not just building it alone, we're building it with our members, our partners, and every customer who chooses to be part of the solution. And it's really great to see a lot of those customers show up to the stakeholder meetings and suggest really great ideas to get to this VPP.Brad Langley: How many customers are you initially targeting and what's the scale of that look like over time?Zach Borton: Yeah, so the first few years, our big focus is on seamless integration, enrollment and engagement with those customers. We're going to most likely start within three different program groups, so EVs, batteries and thermostats and expand offerings from there. We hope to have roughly one megawatt in that first year, but again, I want to focus mostly on building out the seamless enrollment process and engagement. We can't build that 30 megawatts by 2030 without the customers and the devices, so having that poor engagement or poor enrollment process isn't going to help us scale. So we really need to build out the processes we have and kind of scale up to that 30 megawatt number by 2030.Brad Langley: Well, hey, we call this show With Great Power, which is a nod to the energy industry. It's also a famous Spider-Man quote. With great power comes great responsibility. So Zach, what superpower do you bring to the energy transition?Zach Borton: That's a really great question. I would say that curiosity-driven leadership. I'm highly adaptable and I have this ability to connect with all types of people, meet them where they're at, and build that real trust through kind of empathy, curiosity. I find common ground and help bring out the best in others, whether it's a technical person, strategic customer focus, I know how to relate and inspire those folks and share a sense of purpose. The ability to connect with folks is key when bringing together a diverse team with the single vision that we have.Brad Langley: And I'd add a great sense of fashion. I know our listeners can't see it, but I love the VPP hat you're rocking. It's right on point. So nicely done with that. Well, Zach, thank you so much for coming on the show and we wish you the best of luck with the program.Zach Borton: Yeah, thank you.

I was very excited when Alexis said yes to being a guest on the podcast. I really enjoyed the work she shared on Instagram and looked forward to getting to know her better. Now, you get that same chance. We've got a great conversation that spans "the big 3" (as dubbed by me), Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars. We start off with Disney, throwing it all the way back to when the Disney channel was a pay TV channel. Alexis talks about some of her first experiences with Disney, like "The Wonderful World of Disney", the movies and TV shows (including a surprising favorite movie). Plus, Alexis talks about Disney Cruises, why they mean so much to her and her family, and the ship she's excited to sail on. From there, we head into the Marvel Universe. Spider-Man and the X-Men movies were her early start into the fandom. Then her introduction to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We talk about some of her favorite movies and characters, why she was forced to read Civil War, and what she's looking forward to in the MCU in the future (this was recorded prior to Thunderbolts releasing). Then we jump to lightspeed to a Galaxy Far, Far Away, and talk Star Wars. From her early experiences and where she got her start in the fandom. Movies, TV shows, and more are all talked about. Plus, we talk about Hayden Christensen and a picture she took with him at a convention. We wrap up with talking about the creative work that Alexis creates and shares on her social media side. We talk about how she first got started, what she shares and why, her goals for this year, and what you can expect to see.

As the resident Spider-expert, Joe brings to light how Venom and the Avengers impact this story, and more importantly, how Marvel editorial didn't! Plus: how does Norman Osborn shape the lives of both Octavius and Parker, and why is he the perfect villain to end on?

Spiderman defeated by a song?!

Marvel fans, get ready! On this episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, Kristian is joined by co-hosts Coy Jandreau and Winston Marshal to break down the MASSIVE news: Marvel Studios has officially delayed AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY and AVENGERS: SECRET WARS release dates! The end of the Multiverse Saga is now coming later than expected, and we're diving deep into what this means for the entire MCU. Disney and Marvel Studios have announced that Avengers: Doomsday has been moved from May 1, 2026, to December 18, 2026. And Avengers: Secret Wars, meanwhile, will now open on December 17, 2027, after it was originally scheduled for May 7, 2027. While there's disappointment, were there telltale signs that Avengers: Doomsday might be delayed? We discuss why this feels like the right move, potentially giving both movies more time to shoot, increasing the odds of more actors being able to appear (like Tom Holland's Spider-Man!), and vastly extending that all-important post-production time. We also touch on the removal of an "Untitled Marvel Movie" from February 13, 2026, and other MCU title date changes. But the burning question is: What happens to SPIDER-MAN 4 now?! With "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" no longer opening between Doomsday and Secret Wars, we explore what this means for Spidey's next adventure and if it's more likely to be a street-level story. Could this be the perfect opportunity for the web-slinger? We're also tackling a huge RUMOR: The Russo Brothers are casting the MCU's new GHOST RIDER for AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY! Jeff Sneider confirmed that Marvel Studios and the Russos are in the process of casting the Spirit of Vengeance. Could we see Ghost Rider join the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four on screen against Doctor Doom? We'll discuss Ryan Gosling's previous comments about the role! Plus, we've got updates on the upcoming Disney+ series, VISION QUEST! Showrunner Terry Matalas confirms the show's place in the MCU timeline, revealing it directly follows White Vision's journey after WandaVision. We'll also break down the full list of confirmed writers for this highly anticipated series.

Spider-Man Team-Up #7 (1997)Look, I know it's supposed to be more Thunderbolts but the “Justice Like Lightning” trade tricks you into reading a Spider-Man book. Thankfully, it is chronologically congruent to the ongoing storyline that we are covering so let's keep going.Spider-Man is framed for murder and the Thunderbolts are the only ones to can help (because everyone else is dead). Songbird and Mach-1 brawl with the web-slinger while Atlas signs a rooftop autograph using his fingernails. It is ultimately revealed the Enclave (aka Wilford Brimley and the Egon Spanglers) are sending androids out to muck up the works and that really steams Mach-1's ponytail.Also, Spider-Man hits a brick wall, Stan Lee makes Batman obese, Techno goes full Dolby and Mary Jane's course books are just too damn EXPENSIVE!All this plus Jen and Shawn share their experience at the latest RetroMania and talk about the new, bizarre Superman movie toys.*** PROPER COMIC BOOK DISCUSSION STARTS AT 00:12:30 ***Promos: 8TW AUDIO WORKS (https://twotruefreaks.com/podcast/8tw-promo-pilot-season/)Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter / Instagram / Facebook / Threads / Bluesky or email the show at worstcollectionever@gmail.comAlso, get hip to all of our episodes on YouTube in its own playlist! https://bit.ly/WorstCollectionEverYTDownload the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and wherever you get your favorite shows.

The Superhero Show Show #584STAS: Peter and MJ's Wedding!The Superhero Show Show: Chaos at Peter and MJ's WeddingThis week on The Superhero Show Show, the hosts pop the champagne—then immediately spill it—as they break down one of the most anticipated episodes of Spider-Man: The Animated Series: Peter and MJ's Wedding. In Season 5, Episode 1, “The Wedding,” Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson are finally ready to say “I do.” But this ceremony is anything but ordinary. With supervillains crashing the party and the Kingpin secretly funding the festivities, the hosts dive into a chaotic, emotional, and unforgettable episode.A Love Worth Fighting ForThe episode begins with a quiet sense of hope. Peter and Mary Jane prepare for their big day, and the hosts take a moment to appreciate the journey that led here. Over the past four seasons, their relationship has endured twists, heartbreak, and danger. Now, fans get the romantic payoff they've been waiting for.Although Peter's usually seen in a mask, this time he's donning a tuxedo. The team enjoys the rare chance to see Spider-Man chase something personal, not just another villain.The Green Goblin Wants to Marry MJ?Suddenly, the celebration takes a dark turn. The Green Goblin crashes the ceremony in a truly unhinged entrance. Even worse, he demands to marry Mary Jane himself. The hosts are stunned by this villainous twist and the sheer absurdity of the moment.Moreover, they dive into the Goblin's obsession with MJ. It adds a disturbing edge to his character and transforms the episode from romantic drama to psychological thriller. This wasn't just an attack—it was deeply personal.Kingpin Picks Up the Tab?Then comes another shocking reveal: Wilson Fisk is paying for the wedding. The team debates his motives. Is he trying to manipulate Spider-Man, or does he see this as a way to polish his public image?Either way, it's unsettling. Having the Kingpin involved in any celebration instantly taints it. The hosts note how this decision adds moral complexity to what should have been a joyous day.Aunt May's Kidnapped by the ScorpionJust when things couldn't get worse, they do. The Scorpion kidnaps Aunt May during the chaos. This unexpected twist increases the emotional stakes. Peter now faces a choice—fight for his loved ones or finally get his happy ending.The hosts discuss how this moment reflects Peter's core struggle. Even during major life events, he can't escape the responsibility of being a hero.The Wedding Still HappensDespite the madness, there are quiet moments of beauty. MJ stands by Peter through it all. Their bond feels real and resilient.Eventually, the ceremony continues. Peter and Mary Jane finally exchange vows. Their kiss seals more than just a marriage—it marks a turning point in the series.Final Thoughts on Peter and MJ's WeddingThe hosts agree: this episode is a rollercoaster. Between the Green Goblin's shocking demand, Kingpin's financial involvement, and the Scorpion's kidnapping of Aunt May, the stakes couldn't be higher. Yet, Peter and MJ's Wedding still delivers powerful emotion, earned character development, and a love story that shines through the chaos.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?
