Cosmic Marvel May continues with a look at the Devourer of Worlds, GALACTUS! Hope you're hungry, because we serve up a planet-sized platter of issues for you! Intro Thanks to PuchiCon for fantastic panel Background (2:52) Galactus created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in Fantastic Four #48 (March 1966) Galan of Taa was an explorer of the universe that existed before the Big Bang - when the universe collapsed during the Big Crunch, he merged with the Sentience of the Universe, and was reborn in this universe with an insatiable hunger - he consumes an entire planet, Archeopia Creates a herald, the Fallen One, who rebels against him - his next herald was Norrin Radd of Zenn-La, who becomes the Silver Surfer When the Surfer approaches Earth to warn the planet of the coming of Galactus, the Fantastic Four lead the defense, and are able to repel him with the Ultimate Nullifier - Mr. Fantastic later sends him the Negative Zone to eat uninhabited planets Secret Wars - he attempts to consume Battleworld to get the Beyonder to remove his hunger, but he is foiled by Dr. Doom Gets turned into a star by his own consuming machines - this releases Abraxas, who creates so much destruction and chaos Franklin & Valeria Richards are forced to revive him to help them defeat Abraxas Attempts to feed on the Infinity Gems, but that releases another destructive being Heads to Asgard to find an item to satiate his hunger - Odin agrees to let him have it once Asgard is no more Forced into his incubator by the Ultimates, and emerges as a Lifebringer instead of a devourer - this throws off the cosmic balance, and several celestial beings attempt to return him to his former state To help defeat Hank Pym/Ultron, Galactus consumes a world overrun by Ultron drones - this revives his hunger, and the Surfer returns as his herald to help him find uninhabited planets Drained by Thor and turned into a bomb to destroy the Black Winter, a being that consumes entire universes Issues (6:26) Galactus. The Devourer of Worlds. The Harbinger of Civilization's End. And...an eco-friendly sustainable farmer? It would normally be hard to fathom the inner workings of the mind of someone who is quite literally the actual sentience of the universe that existed before ours. Fortunately, Galactus helps us out quite a bit by being more than a little chatty about himself and his motivations with the lesser beings he encounters in his travels. A few of his issues have stayed very consistent over the decades: 1) A very complicated and often unhealthy relationship with his food, and his eating in general. Galactus does not enjoy the act of devouring worlds. It has never been an act that brings him pleasure. He simply has to do it in order to survive. Prior to becoming the Lifebringer, he displayed several tendencies that might be thought of as eating disorders in someone who was not a cosmic entity. In Secret Wars, he declares to the Beyonder that his fondest wish is to not have his constant hunger anymore, to be free of the need to eat. On several occasions, it's been made clear that he often starves himself as long as it's possible for him to stand it in between his meals. When confronted by beings and civilizations who don't want to be destroyed and who beg him to find another planet to consume, his constant refrain is that there's simply no more time to do that; he has to eat this planet right now or he's going to die. 2) Guilt and the constant struggle to suppress it. One of Galactus' standby replies to anyone who questions the ethics of his consuming inhabited worlds filled with intelligent beings is that if their very survival depended upon stepping on an ant hill, they wouldn't hesitate. Galactus sets himself above and beyond the reproach or judgment of anyone who is not a cosmic entity. In both his role as the Devourer of Worlds and as the Lifebringer, he fulfills a cosmic purpose as the universe's sustainable farmer, weeding out the life that has passed its apex and the civilizations not strong enough to mount a resistance to him, knowing that he will one day put all of the cosmic life energy he consumes back out into the universe, seeding dead worlds with the beginnings of life to start all over again. And yet, despite that, he was once a mortal, and he does have a conscience. He goes through periods where he tries to limit himself to uninhabited worlds, or worlds without intelligent life, but it's the equivalent of a liquid diet for him; it just doesn't provide the same nourishment. In the famous Fantastic Four #257, he has to have a sit-down with Mistress Death when he basically decides to starve himself completely over the sadness of all the life he's taken, and begs Death to kill him. Most of the time, he just does his best to not think about it, the way most of us try not to think too much about how the food on our table doesn't just magically appear at the grocery store. (17:23) 3) Trouble finding, hiring and keeping good help. Galactus is so much better off when he has a herald in his service finding worlds for him to eat. But he's had a really bad run of luck with them. He had such a bad experience with the Fallen One that he didn't create another one for eons before the Silver Surfer, who managed to break through the blocks Galactus put on his morality enough to rebel. He really liked Airwalker, but Airwalker liked him back enough to sacrifice himself to save him. Firelord he never even really got to know before dismissing him. Finally he decided what he really needed was a sadistic killer who enjoyed destroying inhabited worlds. Predictably, Terrax tried to kill Galactus and take his place. Frankie Raye just wouldn't budge on the whole "no inhabited worlds" rule. Morg was way too good at the job, lined up worlds for Galactus to eat faster than he could eat them. Then he tried two heralds at once for a while, that didn't work out. The man just really doesn't seem to know what it is he really wants from an employee, which seems to be why he keeps finding incompatible candidates for the job. (24:55) Break (35:06) Plugs for SNEScapades, Last Sons of Krypton, and Jordan Blum Treatment (36:09) In-universe -  Out of universe - Focus on addressing eating disorder and general health (38:04) Skit (44:42) Hello Galactus, I'm Dr. Issues. - GREETINGS DOCTOR. When Adam Warlock said I'd be doing work for cosmic beings I wasn't quite expecting this. - YOU HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY BEINGS OF POWER BEYOND COMPREHENSION. THIS CARRIES WITH IT INCREDIBLE RESPONSIBILITY. Seems like I've heard that before… - THE HERO CALLED SPIDER-MAN HAS MADE IT SOMEWHAT OF A MANTRA. So how can I help you? - I KNOW YOUR SPECIALITY IS MENTAL HEALTH, BUT YOU ARE EXPERIENCED IN PHYSIOLOGY, ARE YOU NOT? I am a psychiatrist, so I have knowledge of human biology. Having said that, I'm not really sure how that would apply to a celestial being of phenomenal power. I don't think there's even a remote chance of analogous internal systems. - I AM LESS CONCERNED WITH THE BIOLOGY AND MORE FOCUSED ON THE MENTAL CONNECTIONS TO THE PHYSICAL FORM. Alright, I can't believe I'm asking this, but what can I do to help you? - I NEED TO GO ON A DIET. Umm… excuse me? - I MUST FIND A WAY TO SATIATE MY ETERNAL HUNGER FOR THE SAKE OF SENTIENT BEINGS. Oh boy… so, I appreciate you seeking my input, but I DON'T KNOW HOW TO HELP YOU HERE. - YOU CAN PROVIDE ME WITH SUGGESTIONS TO CREATE MENTAL BLOCKS TO ABATE THE COMPULSIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE HUNGER. That's… I… that is not even close to what I am trained in. Much as I would love to help you, I don't even have the first inkling where to start. - MIGHT YOU HAVE AN ASSOCIATE WHO IS TRAINED IN SUCH MATTERS? Sorry, I don't know there's much of a call for “cosmic dieticians”. - PERHAPS YOU KNOW OF SOME FREE-RANGE OPTIONS? How would that even work? - A PLANET OF SENTIENT BEINGS WHO DESIRE TO ASCEND TO A HIGHER PLANE, ALL OF WHOM HAVE THE FREEDOM TO STAY OR LEAVE. I HAVE NOT FIGURED OUT ALL OF THE LOGISTICS YET, I WAS HOPING FOR YOUR INPUT. I'm sorry, I…wait, have you seen the commercials for that medication that wasn't originally designed for weight gain, but people started taking anyway? -THE IMPACT OF A MINISCULE SPHEROID WOULD NOT SATIATE SUCH A STATE No, but the premise is similar to what I'm thinking. You need a new setpoint. Change the order of what you eat and when, then maybe some sort of suppressor, and…hmmm…how does one do bariatric surgery on a cosmic scale? - MY PHYSICAL FORM HAS NO KNOWN CONSTANTS. I AM WHATEVER FORM IS COMPREHENSIBLE TO THE SPECIES VIEWING ME. Then we're going to need an endoscopy tube the size of a space station. Route the last veins of our coal mines to neutralize your digestion from the start. If we combine that with the theoretical particles generated from a Hadron collider, we could force a controllable black hole inside you that would just as easily pass out what you eat. - AND WHAT WOULD EXIT THIS TUBE? WHAT MANNER OF ENERGY OR MATTER IS CREATED FROM THIS EXPERIMENT? I'm not a physicist, but I think it could reset whatever goes through back to the original point of its existence…like, before the big bang or whatever, I'unno -YOU ARE WILLING TO TAKE A CHANCE ON EXISTENCE AS WE KNOW IT JUST TO RECREATE IT FROM MY HUNGER? Well, when you put it like that…*snaps fingers* or, orrrr…after you eat, and there's this new hole…can you eat that? -EAT…MYSELF? THE HOLE?  I mean…what if you came out on the other end? What would you be like? - YOU ARE ATTEMPTING TO NAVIGATE CONCEPTS FAR BEYOND THE PRECEPTS OF YOUR MORTAL BRAIN. TAKE CARE, DOCTOR, THAT YOU DO NOT FORCE YOURSELF INTO A STATE FROM WHICH YOU CANNOT RECOVER. OR DO SO. EITHER WAY, GALACTUS WILL PERSIST. Would you, though? How do we know you wouldn't become an infinite digestive loop feeding on itself for eternity, without the need for more outside worlds? You gain a steady state, nobody else gets devoured…fair trade. - YOUR MORALITY OPERATES ON A SCALE INFINITESIMAL TO ONE SUCH AS GALACTUS. THESE CONCERNS ARE AS IMPORTANT TO ME AS THOSE OF AN ANT ARE TO YOU. THERE ARE FAR GREATER UNIVERSAL THREATS AT RISK IF THE COSMIC BALANCE IS DESTABILIZED. BEFORE SUCH AN EXPERIMENT PROCEEDS, I MUST PONDER THE EFFECTS ON THE UNIVERSAL SCALE. I WILL CONSULT WITH THE LIVING TRIBUNAL, ETERNITY, AND THE COSMIC COUNCIL. And eat rocky planets for fiber…but not Uranus, because it's too gassy. -THIS IS TRUE. ALTHOUGH THIS ENCOUNTER IS NOT WHAT I EXPECTED, YOU HAVE ENHANCED THE POSSIBLE FUTURES OF ALL THAT WILL EVER BE. THIS WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN.  Ending (50:43) Recommended reading: Galactus Trilogy Next episodes: Nova (Richard Rider), Miguel O'Hara Plugs for social & GonnaGeek Network References: Steve Harvey “One Man” - Doc (30:04) Transcript Apple Podcasts: here Google Play: here Stitcher: here TuneIn: here iHeartRadio: here Twitter Facebook TikTok  Patreon TeePublic Discord

It's our 175th episode, and just before Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 drops we cover Space Jesus HIMself, Adam Warlock!  Issue 175 - Adam Warlock Intro GotG v3 comes out Friday Reminder of PuchiCon panel  Background (3:08) Adam Warlock created by Stan Lee & Jack Kirby in Fantastic Four #66-67 (Sept.-Oct. 1967) Originally named Him, he was a genetically engineered human who rebelled against his creators, the Enclave High Evolutionary names him Warlock and gives him the Soul Gem, and a group of teenagers he encounters call him Adam He encounters the Universal Church of Truth, run by Magus - he learns Magus is an alternate version of himself from the future, so he kills another future version of himself to prevent the Magus from existing During these adventures, he allies himself with Gamora, Pip the Troll, and even Thanos at one point - after Thanos turns on them with the Infinity Gems, Adam is captured inside the Soul Gem, but temporarily escapes to defeat Thanos Infinity Gauntlet - Adam and other Marvel heroes band together to defeat Thanos, and Adam ends up with the Gauntlet - charged by the Living Tribunal to separate the stones, he gives one each to Gamora, Pip, Drax, Moondragon, and a reformed Thanos Before he gave up the gauntlet, he separated his good and evil sides, creating the Goddess and the Magus, which triggers Infinity War and Infinity Crusade Later joins the new version of the Guardians of the Galaxy following Annihilation: Conquest He becomes Magus once again, but is killed and resurrected The new reincarnated Warlock is sought out by Annihilus to power a reality-destroying weapon, which succeeds - Warlock's essence appeals to the One-Above-All, who recreates the world and restores things to where they were Decapitated by Gamora, who was on the hunt for the Infinity Gems to reclaim a portion of herself lost inside the Soul Gem - resurrected yet again, and after reality was restored he gave the Gems sentience and sent them off to fend for themselves, meaning he no longer controls the Soul Gem Issues (Theme is the Uncanny Valley of Human Perfection) (9:11) Genetically created to be the perfect human - he is among them but not of them Purges self of emotion, which creates the Magus and the Goddess (17:13) Worshiped by Universal Church of Truth, which he discovered is run by Magus (21:30) Break (33:52) Plugs for Bedknobs & Broomflicks, Ignorance was Bliss, and Meredith Finch Treatment (35:06) In-universe - Ponder idea of who God prays to in order to find alternative options Out of universe - Patients who focus on the world writ large instead of their own personal issues (38:43) Skit (42:15) Hello Adam, I'm Dr. Issues. - Good day, Doctor. So what can I do for you today? -You are a mental health professional, correct? Yes. -Good. Then analyze my thoughts. Um…okay. -*starts abruptly* I often give strong consideration to how the universe could be a better place. There are so many things that trouble me. I try to create safeguards so nothing gets out of hand, but that doesn't work in a vacuum. I can't imagine it would. So -*interrupting* Indeed. I figured delegating to others would limit any consolidation of power, but it just made the subsequent problems unpredictable. Perhaps you should take a more active role then -But when I do that I get accused of being too heavy handed. Heavy is the head that wears the crown -*deadpan* No I meant heavy handed because it was a gauntlet.Anyway, where was I? Oh, right the whole destruction of existence as we know it. I ponder how to best manage the combination of allies and enemies without angering too many people at once. So far I have yet to determine the exact balance to make everyone happy. If failure is the mother of success, then I have spawned innumerable children.  It sounds like you have plenty of experience. What have you learned along the way? -To avoid yes men. You seem like the type of person to intentionally make people uncomfortable for your own amusement, so I figured you could prevent me from aligning with sycophants.  I…I…thaaanks? I don't quite know what to make of that.-I'm sure you'll understand more as you learn more about me. Or you'll go insane yourself from dealing with the power of the cosmos for too long if I stick around. Either way, you'll be serving a good purpose. Were you available to an earlier me at another time, you may have been considered for a spot on the Infinity Watch. I'm not sure this is practical…for you, or for me. I'm not as philosophical as you may think. At least, not on a regular basis. -Who's being philosophical? I'm war room planning with you. That sounds grandiose. -No, it's not. I still have a fragment of the vision stone. If you wish to understand further, I'll show you. *insert whatever sound effects* *pause* Nothing in my training or experience will EVER prepare me for the type of stuff that patients like you put me through.  What is my role in all of this…madness? Death? Destruction? Is this predicting -No, this is what's happening somewhere at sometime and I'm trying to gather my thoughts so the damage is limited.  I get it, I get it. No offense…or take offense, I don't care…Why are you on my couch when you could, oh I don't know…DO ANYTHING TO END THIS? -Your frustration is noted. But you may be familiar with “measure twice, cut once” Then measure quicker. -Well, I have the idea that if I segment my focus on *Interrupting* STOP. No more segregating, or delegating, or pondering, or calculating, or plotting, or scheming, or idealizing. Do it yourself. It doesn't have to be perfect. People will get hurt, perhaps on a massive scale. But for someone so idealistic about what the perfect answer should be, you let it all get in the way of imperfect action that can be improved upon later. -Your dramatic presentation is overstated, but appreciated. But be forewarned, anything I do beyond this session will have dire consequences *simultaneously as last word* Consequences on the universe as we know it yadda yadda yadda. If I blink out of existence I'm sure you or one of your compatriots will find some way to reset everything…and even if they don't I wouldn't be around to know about it anyway. How can I be more comfortable about this stuff than you are? -Your reputation as flippant precedes you… It's uncommon for me to encounter someone that gets lost in the weeds more than I do. You manage to lose yourself in it. -I don't agree with that. I know for a fact that without my intervention, none of us would exist. If I don't take care, the next time that happens I won't be able to do it again. Are you even listening to yourself? How am I supposed to help you if you're mixing a predetermined outcome with a nihilistic future unless we thread the needle? I'm not exactly the best sounding board for that kind of stuff because I'm too optimistic of a pessimist….great, now I'm not making sense. -Don't fret. If you learn to channel your inner existential god then you'll be just fine. *totally snaps* That's it. I'm done. I've had it. You're too heady for me. I've dealt with immortal beings, unstoppable monsters, ageless domineering psychopaths…you sir, are beyond what I can comprehend. I'm just going to sit back, take some deep breaths, and watch as all of existence unfolds in the time it takes for you to explain how I'm supposed to help you in just one session. -Are you done? Yes. -Good. Then in your incessant whining I did manage to formulate a proposal to the living tribunal about the value of your practice on a galactic level. *pause* come again? -Your honesty and humility in the face of overwhelming odds are still an asset whether you accept them or not. I'm no fool. You know of my rivals, I'm sure of it, even if you can't divulge such wisdom…and as you said, you persevered. Don't think that this session is the end…it is just the beginning. Any diagnosis you have for me, will likely be different than what you would have for…others like me. *exasperated* Are you trying to tell me that I just got roped into some sort of…Infinity Clinic?! -If that suits your tastes. From what I understand, you will be made invulnerable during said sessions, so you don't have to concern yourself with retribution. But it only lasts for the session itself, and is at the whims of He who is above all.  I guess I can't say no to that, huh? - No. Then…I guess good luck with saving everyone again and make sure to bring your journal with you so I can understand whatever it is that happens. I just wish I were less professional so I could bring some popcorn. - If you like I can will some to appear for y- No, no, no need. Let's just… keep it above board. - As you wish.

It's our 150th episode, so to celebrate we opted to do an AMA. At least that was the plan at first…  Intro Podchaser - Reviews4Good Thank yous to everyone AMA portion Scariest podcasting moment? - @MikeyGeek  Have you read any IDW Transformers comics? What are your thoughts? - I Understood That Reference How has doing the podcast changed you? - Dr Goku from GuardiansMH If you could pick a fictional character to have on the couch, who would it be? - Patron Matt & Lissy What are your early comic memories/what sparked your love of comics? - Patron Matt & Lissy Since Anthony is a lawyer, would he represent you in court for a malpractice case? -Anonymous Is there any time when you recommend comics to your patients? -Anonymous Are there any episodes that you would recommend starting with besides the first one? -Anonymous Skit  DOC: OK, so let's go to the next quest*buzz-phone call* oh, sorry, must've forgotten to turn it off. Lemme just check, it might be work. *beat* I don't recognize this number. Could be work? Hello? HANK: Hello Doctor Issues… DOC: Who is this? HANK: You tried to get me to move on, but all that did was cause me greater grief. So now I'm back to have my revenge. Not just on Superman, but on you. DOC: Hank Henshaw? I never tried to get you to move on from Terri, I simply told you to focus your energy, sorry, no pun intended, on a healthier way to honor her memory.  HANK: I tried that. I worked on creating a permanent tribute to her online. I made that Instagram profile of her, and it worked for a while. I was going to use her internet fame to support organizations that she cared about. You know what happened? Crypto bros took her pictures, turned them into NFTs, and started selling them online. So I found every single one of them and killed them all. And then I turned my attention to you. DOC: Dear God, man. HANK: I thought about killing you, but that would be too easy. Plus there's a good chance that blue bastard would come and rescue you. So I opted to hurt you in another way. DOC: If you harm my family… HANK: Oh no, Doc, this is much worse than that. You know, it's funny how simple it is to break past encryption when you're living inside the system. All these patient files, each one tells a story. DOC: You can't do that! HANK: DON'T TELL ME WHAT I CAN'T DO! I'm Hank Henshaw, and I'm beholden to no man. Say, these files are so interesting, I think the rest of the world should have the opportunity to see what you wrote here… DOC: Don't you dare… HANK: Oh, you think this is a comic book where you can stop me? I already released the files online, Doc. Good luck trying to get the toothpaste back in the tube now… hahahaha ANTHONY: Everything ok, bro? DOC: No, definitely not. I need to get back to my office NOW. And I have to make a few phone calls… *dialing noise* c'mon, pick up pick up pick up… TONY STARK: Y'ello? DOC: Tony, thank goodness you picked up. TONY: Uh, who is this? DOC: It's Doctor Issues. We had a therapy session a few years ago, I don't know if you remember TONY: Oh I remember you. Kinda. We split the Glenlivet, right? DOC: We didn't really split it, so much as you drank it and then split. Anyway, listen, I need your help. One of my clients, a bad dude, he got into my patient files and released them all online. I need you to get them off the Internet and make sure no one has access to them again. TONY: Hoo boy, that is quite a quandary. So you're telling me that your files on every single one of your patients, including me, is now out there online? DOC: Yes, but- TONY: Interesting. Jarvis, bring up my file. JARVIS: I'm not sure that's a wise course of action, sir. TONY: If I'm going to help Doc, I need to know what I'm dealing with. DOC: Tony, please, just TONY: Uh-uh, hold on just a sec. Mmmmhmmm… DOC: We don't have time, the sooner we get started on this the sooner we can shut this down and stop anyone else from reading their files. TONY: Yes, because heaven forbid anyone learn that you think they're, what was it again, a narcissist who uses alcohol as a means of self-medication to avoid addressing past traumas? Did I have that right? DOC: Tony, you were drinking in the session and left because you got bored of things. It's not pretty to read, but I stand by my assessment. I also indicated you performed great things in spite of that. TONY: Well, in spite of your compliment, I'm going to tell you to kiss my ass, Doc. Find another lackey to help you clean up your mess. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to exercise my demons with a little racquetball. And the only drinking I'll be doing is my C4 energy drink. Happy? DOC: Not really, I mean TONY: Wasn't talking to you. Happy, bring the car around. And my gym bag better not smell like the insides of your shoes again, or so help me I'll *click* DOC: Dammit! OK, think, who else can I call? Oh, I know! UATU: DOCTOR ISSUES! DOC: What the? UATU: YOU HAVE BEEN SUMMONED. DOC: Uatu? Not now. UATU: THIS WAS NOT A REQUEST. *teleportation sound effect* DOC: NO! I need to get back to Earth! Do you know what I'm dealing with? UATU: OF COURSE I KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING. I FORESAW THIS HAPPENING. DOC: I thought you couldn't see the future. UATU: I CANNOT. BUT I CAN SEE ALL ACTIONS HAPPENING ACROSS THE UNIVERSE AT ONCE, AND I CAN PREDICT WITH A HIGH RATE OF PROBABILITY WHAT WILL OCCUR. YOUR DISMISSAL OF HANK HENSHAW WAS LIKELY TO DRIVE HIM TO SEEK REVENGE. DOC: I didn't dismiss him, I simply… we're getting off topic. Why am I here? UATU: I AM FORBIDDEN FROM INTERFERING IN THE ACTIONS OF OTHERS, I AM MERELY AN OBSERVER. DOC: First off, that's ridiculous, you've interfered I don't know how many times. Secondly, bringing me here to the moon is interference by itself - if you wanted to observe, you could've just left me on Earth. UATU: OH, IS THIS UPSETTING TO YOU? DOES THIS MAKE YOU MAD? DOC: Yes it does! UATU: WELL NOW YOU HAVE A MILD INKLING OF HOW I FEEL. I BORE OF YOUR INCESSANT JOKES ABOUT WATCHING PEOPLE MASTURBATE AND ENGAGE IN VARIOUS SEXUAL ENCOUNTERS.  DOC: So you dragged me up here, in the middle of the biggest professional and personal crisis I've ever encountered, just because you're mad I made jokes about you? UATU: YES. DOC: What the hell, man! You're an interdimensional being with the powers of a god, why are you so focused on being this petty? UATU: BECAUSE I CAN, THAT'S WHY.  DOC: Can you just send me back, please? You made your point. UATU: FINE. BUT IF I HEAR YOU MAKING ONE MORE UATU IS WATCHING YOU JOKE, I WILL TELEPORT YOU TO A REGION OF SPACE WHERE YOU WILL NEVER BE FOUND. *teleportation sound* AND HERE'S A MIDDLE FINGER. I HOPE YOU CAN SEE THIS, BECAUSE I'M DOING IT AS HARD AS I CAN. DOC: Ugh, that was not fun. Also, why do I feel like he's flipping me off? Anyway, I need to get to the office. Lemme check Uber… 17 minutes? Nope, too long. Uhh… oh great, first bit of good luck today. TAXI! *tires squeal* JAKE: Where to, pal? DOC: The central office plaza downtown, and step on it! JAKE: Sure thing, buddy. *car door closes, drives off* DOC: Thanks. Say, you look kinda familiar. Do I know you? JAKE: Hmm… I don't remember you, and I'm pretty good with remembering folks. I just have one o'dem faces. DOC: Are you sure? I seem to recall meeting you at some point. Not too often you encounter folks with a Chicago accent here. JAKE: We're more common than you realize. We move all over da place. DOC: OK, that's fair, I grant you. STEVEN: Grant? Oh my, I detest when this occurs. DOC: What the… oh great, of all the taxis I hadda find… STEVEN: Rest assured, good sir, this is equally embarrassing to me as it is to you.  DOC: Somehow I don't think that's the case. STEVEN: Ahh yes, you're referring to the incident with the patient files? DOC: You know about that already? STEVEN: Yes, the matter was brought to my attention earlier by my social media team. Got an alert when my name popped up in trending files. Had to send my PR staff into high alert to address some of the more… unsavory aspects. DOC: Jeez, and I don't even recall saying anything that bad. I guess it's just the specter of negativity that you have to deal with. MARC: Spector? Aww s**t, now I'm in charge. C'mon Jake, where are we supposed to be going? DOC: Wait, who am I talking to now? And what do you mean where are we going? Don't you share this info between identities? MARC: What would be most comforting for you to hear? DOC: If that's how you're asking the question, I have a feeling no answer is actually going to be comforting. MARC: Not gonna lie to you, Doc, you're not that wrong. Truth is, when this happens, I just kinda drive around in circles and hope that Jake sees something familiar enough that he takes the wheel again. Literally and figuratively. DOC: I don't have time for this. Stop the car. MARC: But what about DOC: Talk to Steven, I'm sure he can afford to pick up the tab. *car door opens & closes* Well, I'm not that far away, guess I can walk. In the meantime… *dialing sound* pick up, Bruce, pick up…  BATMAN: (voicemail) If you feel the need to leave a voicemail, you're not using the proper channels. Contact the right people and they'll alert me accordingly. DOC: DAMMIT BRUCE! Ugh. OK, next one. C'mon Dick… DICK: (voicemail) This is Dick. If this is about business, leave your name and number. If you want to get back to business, I'll call you when I need you. DOC: How about neither… fine, let's try Jason? JASON: Hello: DOC: Jason? It's Doctor Issues. JASON: I was wondering if you'd call.  DOC: Listen, I need help.  JASON: I'm sure you do. So in your greatest moment of need, you reach out to someone, hoping they'll faithfully support you and assist you? DOC: Yes! JASON: Sure is a bitch when it doesn't work out in your favor, isn't it? *click* DOC: WHAT? No no no no… fine, I guess I'll try Tim. TIM: Hello? DOC: Oh, thank goodness, Tim, I TIM: Haha, gotcha. Thought I was answering the phone. Oh man, I'm sure you're probably pretty pissed at me. Which you would tell me, except I'm not available right now. So go ahead and leave me a message, and I'll call you back. DOC: Oh that is NOT COOL, Tim. *sigh* I guess now I'm up to Damian. VOICE: The number you have dialed has not established a voicemail service. DOC: OH COME ON!!! Umm… wait, do I have her number… YES! Oh please please please… STEPHANIE: Hello? DOC: Hello, Stephanie? STEPHANIE: Who is this? DOC: My name is Doctor Issues, I've worked with several of your… colleagues. STEPHANIE: Who? DOC: Dick, Jason, Tim… Bruce… they all STEPHANIE: No, I mean who are you? DOC: I'm… I'm Dr. Issues, I'm their psychiatrist. STEPHANIE: Never heard of you. DOC: Wait, what? STEPHANIE: And how did you get this number? DOC: Because they… I mean you… STEPHANIE: Please don't call me again. *click* DOC: So much for that angle… who else can I call… JOKER: It's so hard to find good help these days… DOC: Oh no. JOKER: What's the matter Doc, you look like you just watched a man die. Here, let me get you a mirror so you can see it up close. DOC: Nope, not sticking around for this one. *starts to run away* JOKER: *sound of net releasing and capturing Doc, who struggles* Oh, but we have a lot to talk about. I need to fill you in on the team of professionals you set up for me. They've been rotating around for quite some time. Or at least I imagine they have, who knows how much weight a ceiling fan can support. After the third body they tend to get a little dicey.  DOC: Dear God… JOKER: The Korean doctor took it especially hard. All that time she thought fan death wasn't real. Right up until the end when the blades decapitated her… DOC: Come on, is there ANYONE around who can help me? JOKER: It's funny, you wrote in my notes that I needed to stay isolated because I'd be less of a threat. And yet who's the one who's all alone right now? It'd be funny if it wasn't so pathetic. But what the hell, I'll laugh anyway BWAHAHAHAHA*punch* ooooomph NORTHSTAR: Doctor, are you alright? DOC: Northstar, what are you doing here? NORTHSTAR: I read the report, and I decided to march over right away to talk to you about it. As I approached, I saw that insane clown man assaulting you, so I thought I'd take care of him first and ask questions later, la! DOC: Well I sure am glad to see you. I need to get back to my office right away, so I can *whooosh* … access my files. NORTHSTAR: Bienvenue. Now, about what you wrote… DOC: Not now, Northstar, this is a bad time. NORTHSTAR: NO, Doctor, you will not brush me off, ça prend tout mon petit change just to have this discussion. I thought I did the right things, said the right things, pi you write that I am self-absorbed, focused on image. Why would I come to you for help if not to get better, À cause tu fais simple de même? DOC: Look, Jean-Paul, I appreciate that you are fired up about this, and I'll be happy to talk this over with you at a later time. But clearly, I've got major problems to address right now, so can we table this discussion? NORTHSTAR: I'm not talking about this with you on a table, on a couch, or anywhere, esti! I know you get confused when I speak in French, so let me be clear: kiss my ass, Doctor. *whoosh* DOC: *sigh* Well, at least I'm in the office and I can focus on *phone rings* *sigh* hello? JJJ: I need to speak to Doctor Issues right away, this is urgent! DOC: This is he. JJJ: You answer your own phone? What kinda two-bit operation are you running? And to think I wasted good time, and worse yet, good money, talking to you.  DOC: Who is this? JJJ: It's J. Jonah Jameson.  DOC: What do you want, Jameson, I'm kind of in the middle of something. JJJ: Yes, I know. That's why I'm calling. This story is breaking news, and I'm asking, no DEMANDING, an exclusive interview for TNM. DOC: My professional life is falling apart around me, and you think I'm going to take time answering questions?  JJJ: Of course! Gives you a chance to get your side of the story out before things go too far. Who cares about being right, what matters is being first. Remember: people read headlines, not retractions. DOC: That says an awful lot, both about you and the media business as a whole. But I'm not interested right now, I need to find someone who can stop this from spreading across the web. JJJ: I think I have someone in my office who can help with web stuff. ANALOG! Where the hell is Derick? I need someone to shut down the Internet. *That's not how this works, Jonah.* I don't pay you to argue with me, I pay you to get things done. And at the rate you're going, you're lucky I pay you at all. DOC: Goodbye, Jonah. JJJ: And another thing-*click* DOC: OK, now to look up how to take things off the Internet. Gonna DuckDuckGo this, last thing I need is more stuff getting traced back to *smash* WHAT THE TICK: Of all the unbelievable things I have to deal with on a daily basis. The unmitigated gall you must possess to disrespect me like this. I might not be the smartest hero, or the flashiest, or even the bluest, but I deserve better than this.  DOC: Tick, what are you- TICK: It's like you don't even know who I am. After all this time we've known each other, I thought some common courtesy would have been established. Sure, people make mistakes here and there, and you brush them under the rug, because that's what good cleaners do. Not the expensive ones, obviously, but the quality cleaners who take a little extra time to spit on the washcloth before scrubbing your toilet to give it that extra sheen. But something like this, I feel personally insulted to even have received something like this associated with my good name. DOC: Tick, I promise you, what I wrote on your patient form was completely professional, and it was never intended to be read publicly. But my system was hacked, and all my confidential patient files are all over the Internet now, I sincerely apologize. TICK: I didn't see that when I filled out the section for pickup. What are you talking about? DOC: Wait… what are YOU talking about? TICK: I'm talking about my order. I specifically requested carnitas in my burrito, and you give me BARBACOA?!?! Do I LOOK Puerto Rican? DOC: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?! TICK: I've been coming to this Chipotle every day for the past two years, and I sit in the same- DOC: THIS IS NOT A CHIPOTLE. TICK: Not with service like this, it isn't.  DOC: Get. Out. TICK: Fine. But first I'll be leaving you a sternly worded review on Welp. DOC: That's… just GOOOOO. TICK: And your decor is appalling. It's like you don't even want my business.  DOC: The door is over *smash* there…Oooookaaaayyy… now if I can PLEASE get back to work… HOMELANDER: How the F**K are you still alive? DOC: Homelander? Oh jeez, not you too… HOMELANDER: I punched your skull off your f**king neck. There's no goddamn way you should be living.  DOC: I don't have the time or the patience to explain this to you. HOMELANDER: Is it because I'm a… what was the phrase you used… “completely unreachable sociopath”? DOC: No, but that's not inaccurate. Do you hear yourself when you speak? HOMELANDER: I have super hearing. But everyone will be able to hear you scream before you DIE! *tosses Doc out window* DOC: AHHHH SOMEONE HELP ME! ISAIAH: I'll catch you.  DOC: AHH! AHH! AHH! ISAIAH: Why are you shouting? Are you hurt? Are you ok? DOC: Ahh… *calms down* I'm sorry, Isaiah, getting thrown out a window isn't something you get over quickly. ISAIAH: How do you know me? DOC: I talked to you a while ago. I guess you don't remember me? ISAIAH: Was it a nice talk? DOC: Yes, yes it was.  ISAIAH: Good. HOMELANDER: Are you f**king s**tting me? I toss you out the goddamn window, and of all the things to happen, you end up getting caught by this big dumb n- ISAIAH: *punch* I don't like those words. You hurt my friend. DOC: Be careful, Isaiah, he's a very mean person, and very strong. ISAIAH: I can take care of bullies. You have a nice day now! HOMELANDER: Is that all you got, you stupid motherfu- ISAIAH: *punch* I said I don't like those words. DOC: I'm just going to take advantage of this and take off. *grabs phone* *starts dialing* C'mon Bruce, pick up pick up pick up… CARNAGE: Going somewhere, Doctor? DOC: *sigh* No, I guess I'm not. CARNAGE: Not like when you tried to send me back to Ravencroft, or the Vault, or any of the other places you tried to throw me away and forget about me.   DOC: Cletus, you need help. More help than I can personally provide. CARNAGE: Yes, I know. I had such a wonderful talk with Victor last week about you. DOC: Victo… oh no. CARNAGE: Oh YES. Your name comes up an awful lot lately. Even before this little report of yours released. We all have our own ideas about ending you. Victor's was one of the more… colorful ones I've heard. And he's got a special place for you all saved up.  DOC: Yes, he told me all about it. CARNAGE: Jim Jr., Roman, Waylon, Mr. Blake… we've had fantastic conversations about what we'd do if we ever got the chance to have a special session with you. And what with all the alone time I've had lately, I've been ruminating quite a bit about it. DOC: Lucky me… CARNAGE: But you know what the major difference is between me and them? DOC: Lemme guess, you're actually the one who's going to pull it off? CARNAGE: How dare you steal that opportunity from me? I was building up, it was a whole thing, it's like you don't even know how this is supposed to work out. The one time I decide I'm going to embrace the theatricality they talk about, and you steal my thunder. This is why I just kill people right away, no chance for backtalk. I should just stick to the basics… BOOSTER: *portals in* Yes, yes, it's me, Booster Gold. Hold your applause until I'm finished saving you, Doc. DOC: None to be had, Booster. CARNAGE: Who the hell is this clown? BOOSTER: The name's Booster Gold. You don't know it yet, but I'm about to make a big impact on you. Specifically my foot to your ass. DOC: Don't say that out loud… BOOSTER: Oh it's fine, Doc. I've already seen how this plays out. You're fine. DOC: If you saw this already, why didn't you stop it before it happened? CARNAGE: What is going on here? BOOSTER: I got caught up with some Justice League business. You know how it is, flying around the world, saving multiple timelines. It takes its toll. I needed some “me time”. DOC: You're a time traveler. LITERALLY ALL YOU HAVE IS ME TIME. BOOSTER: And yet I managed to take time out of my busy world saving schedule to come here and save the world for you. And before you say it,  you're welcome. DOC: So please, do it. NOW. BOOSTER: What's the rush then? I mean, you just indicated I have all the time in the world, so theoretically I can leave and come back. DOC: Did you research this guy at all? BOOSTER: Who does research? DOC: Serial killer. BOOSTER: Like Count Chocula, or… DOC: Alien powered psychopath. BOOSTER: Oh, so like J'onn when we run out of Oreos in the Watchtower. DOC: WOULD YOU JUST HIT HIM ALREADY? BOOSTER: Jeez, you're in a hurry. OK. *ahem* STAND ASIDE, CITIZEN. BOOSTER GOLD IS HERE! I WILL NOW… wait, where's the camera? I want to make sure they get my good si- CARNAGE: RAAAAHHHH SHUT UP YOU BLOVIATING BUFFOON! *slash sound effect* Now where did the good doctor go? DOC: *running sound effects* Good thing I remembered to tie my shoes this morning… *sound of car pulls up* *window rolls down* FISK: Doctor Issues. Might I interest you in a ride? DOC: I see no rational alternative, Mr. Fisk. FISK: Nor do I. And yet here we are. Come in. DOC: If only to get away from another psychopath. *door opens & closes* FISK: So kind of you to join me. DOC: Is that blood on the floor? FISK: Remnants of the last person who chose to ignore a recommendation of mine. Unfortunately, given the circumstances I haven't had the opportunity for a full detailing yet. Regardless, that's not why we're here. DOC: Let me guess. You're mad about… Wait. Although we may have our differences, you already know about me, and you already saw your file. So what, then? FISK: I understand your hesitation to work with me, given the nature of our last conversation. Rest assured, as long as things remain cordial, no one's family members have to be involved. DOC: Then why even bring them up? FISK: Because in light of everything that's gone on, I felt it important to remind you of who I am. DOC: OK.  FISK: As you know, I am a man of many resources. Resources that, in this instance, could provide useful in eliminating traces of these files from the internet and the computers of anyone who might possess them. DOC: You're rich. Got it. What's that got to do with me? FISK: Despite those resources, I am not without my limits. That is where you come in. DOC: What could I provide you that you can't buy yourself? FISK: Daredevil. DOC: If you saw my file on you, you definitely read my file on him. What more do you need from me? FISK: It's not the information I need, Doctor. You have access to him. A relationship. Trust. DOC: If you think that's the best level of trust possible, then you'll still have a REALLY hard time getting access to him. FISK: But his Catholic guilt can be manipulated quite easily to obtain a future session with him. All I need is for you to bend that to your will. Name the time and place, and I assure you everything else will be taken care of. DOC: And you're having me do this after an information breach that would mysteriously be cleaned up… Something tells me even a blind man could see the setup coming a mile away, and that's without all the other senses coming into play. FISK: I was under the impression you'd be more perceptive to this offer, given your current lack of allies or assistance. DOC: And you would become persona non grata for somehow changing this one opportunity that everyone had. And you stole it from them. Are you sure you want that? FISK: Are you suddenly concerning yourself with my welfare and the consequences that would come from me helping you? Even for a medical professional this seems beyond the norm. DOC: At this point, my preservation is paramount to anything else on my mind. FISK: I can see this was a waste of my time. *door opens* Consider this business offer rescinded. *throws Doc out* *door closes & car continues driving* DOC: *rolling sound effects & groans* Tuck and roll saves another life… and yet I'm still no closer to finding answers, or someone to help me. SQUIRREL GIRL: Is that you, Doc? DOC: Doreen? SG: Hey, how are you? DOC: Not so good… like literally, not good at all. SG: That's a bummer. Wanna talk about it? DOC: You mean you don't know? SG: Oh of course I know, it's the big story right now on Chitter. DOC: Chitter? SG: It's the social media network for squirrels. They actually came up with the name before Twitter, but no one will let squirrels own a trademark, and the bird lobbyists got involved, it got really messy. DOC: Riiiiiight.  SG: Anyway, you're going through a pretty rough time, and I just wanted to tell you that I'm sorry you're hurting. Like you say, it's not your fault but it is your problem. DOC: Thanks. It's actually nice to talk to someone today who's not super pissed at me for what I said in their file. Assuming you read what I wrote… SG: I did. I have to say I understood why you said what you did, and I appreciate your honesty. DOC: Oh? SG: Yeah. I stepped back from the babysitting thing a bit. It was getting to be a bit much with everything else going on. DOC: I'm glad to hear it. SG: Cut back from 40 hours a week to 39. DOC: That's it? SG: Yeah, and let me tell you it was rough. Didn't know what to do with that hour, all that free time was crazy. So I opted to volunteer at a soup kitchen. DOC: I… SG: Feels good to give back. But enough about me. You're still struggling with the whole personal data leak thing. DOC: Yup. And I am so glad that I have your super powered support. Right? Right? SG: Oh I'd love to help, but I don't know the first thing about computers and stuff. I mean, I still have a flip phone. And my squirrel friends, well… there are a LOT of them, but they can't chew through all that fiber optic cable. You realize how much property damage that would cause? DOC: Thank you for the practicality. To be candid, I just don't know what in the hell I'm supposed to do. SPAWN: You know what they say, speak the Devil's name and he shall appear. DOC: What*gets sucked into hell* AAAAAHHHHHH SG: *yells after him* Sorry I couldn't be more helpful! SPAWN: Welcome to Hell, Doc. DOC: AHHH GET ME OUTTA HERE SPAWN: No sense screaming, no one down here can hear or help you. DOC: IT'S NOT FOR THEM, IT'S FOR ME. WHY DID YOU BRING ME HERE? SPAWN: I felt this place was actually less judgmental than being above right now. DOC: Much as I appreciate the gesture, I need to get out of here. SPAWN: What's that old chestnut of advice, when you're in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.  DOC: That… actually makes a lot of sense. But I still have to find a way to address what's going on up there, and staying in Hell is making it worse. There's a sentence I never thought I'd have to say… SPAWN: I understand. Well, I tried. Hopefully that counts for something. Both with you and whoever else is keeping score. DOC: Appreciate it. SPAWN: So let me just *hit* *roar* AHH! DOC: What? SPAWN: Malebolgia is back. He's still pissed off after the last time I killed him. You need to go, now! DOC: So send me back up there! SPAWN: I can't right now, it's a lengthy process and I can't afford to keep myself vulnerable that long. You'll have to find another way. Now RUN! DOC: Oh my god oh my god oh my god… Eeeh… I just need to find a friendly face here… CONSTANTINE: How about a familiar one? DOC: JOHN? What are you doing here? CONSTANTINE: Oh, a little of this, little of that… bigger question is what are YOU doing here? DOC: Spawn dragged me down here and then he got attacked and I started running and I need to get out of here and PLEASE HELP. CONSTANTINE: And why should I help you? After all, you thought I sounded like a bad Beatle impersonator. DOC: What? How? That wasn't in the file. CONSTANTINE: Not every truth is written down, love.  DOC: Whatever, I will wear a Liverpool jersey to my next session, I don't care. GET ME OUTTA HERE. CONSTANTINE: That's the spirit. Before you go, indulge me. When you walk through a storm… DOC: NOW! CONSTANTINE: Alright, we'll sing later. This'll just take a moment, love. Nicoreen siagos acasha… *magical sound effects* DOC: *gasp* *panting*... *to self* that was not fun. OK, Doc, what's the next step? Because I feel like I've been at this forever and I'm still no closer to finding an answer. CATWOMAN: Maybe I can help? DOC: Selina? Why? CATWOMAN: You know me, I like to whip up a solution to a problem. *cracks whip* DOC: As much as I love puns, this is NOT the time. So either help me, or get out of my way. CATWOMAN: Oh, so serious all of a sudden. You're almost as bad as Bruce. DOC: Look, if you're going to make jokes- CATWOMAN: Fine. I can hack into a couple of mainframes and shut down major Internet pathways. It's not a complete solution, but it will help stop the spread. DOC: That's… one of the first helpful ideas I've heard all day.  CATWOMAN: You're very welcome.  DOC: Why do I feel like there's a catch here? CATWOMAN: Why Doctor, you wound me with your implication.  DOC: It's sore because it hits the spot. CATWOMAN: UGH. OK. Your office is directly above a financial trading company. They have extensive resources, but they're taking advantage of a local indigent community and forcing them out so they can build another bland high-rise. I need you to get me into the building so I can… obtain some leverage over them. DOC: So you take care of my immediate professional quandary and place me squarely in the middle of another one? I don't see how this works out in my favor. CATWOMAN: C'mon, I scratch your back, you scratch mine. And my claws know how to dig deep. SHE-HULK: If I didn't know any better, I'd say that sounds like a setup for blackmail, plus possible RICO charges for conspiracy. Not to mention the clear B&E, likely burglary… I mean the felony charges alone would eat up about 7 of those 9 lives you've got, right? DOC: I don't say this often, but I'm glad to see a lawyer hanging around. Thanks Jen. CATWOMAN: Goddamn lawyers ruin everything. You're no fun. SHE-HULK: You're calling ME no fun? That's a first. At least since Aaron stopped writing me. Also, that's a pretty rich statement coming from someone dressed like Judi Dench's body double. CATWOMAN: Such a low blow. I expected more from you. SHE-HULK: Sorry to disappoint. If you leave now, I'll make sure they drop the charges. Keep talking, though, and I'll be ethically bound to cooperate with the investigation. The ass-kicking will just be a bonus. CATWOMAN: This is why no one likes lawyers. You're all the same. SHE-HULK: All the same? I'm eight feet tall and green. Aside from my cousin, who else is even remotely close to me? DOC: OK, I think I'm gonna go and let you two sort this out. CATWOMAN: *Green Giant jingle* Ho ho ho… SHE-HULK: Oh, that is IT. The heels are coming off… DOC: Later, ladies. *sound of actual catfight in background* Let's try Bruce again… *dialing* *teleportation sound* WHAT? NO! MOJO: And here's the star of our show, ladies and gentlemen! Doctor Issues himself! DOC: MOJO! Are you fu- MOJO: Hey, watch the language, Doc, this is a primetime show. Gotta keep it family friendly. DOC: What show are you talking about? MOJO: Why, Doc on the Run, of course! It's the hottest new reality show in the Mojoverse! We've been watching you this whole time. Gotta say, loving all the twists and turns so far. But it's starting to feel a little stale at this point. I mean, how many times can you run into patients of yours who offer nothing but cliched phrases or try to kill you? You have to keep your audience guessing what's going to happen, but stunt casting only really works during sweeps.  DOC: This isn't a reality show, this is real life! I don't give a damn about your ratings! MOJO: Of course you think it is. That's why your delivery is so great. But I'm not loving that last line. It's fine, we'll have the writers come up with something and you'll record an ADR session during editing. Gotta punch it up. Maybe curse a bit, we'll bleep you out and use it in the commercial. Oh, and speaking of punching, let's see what we can do about getting you involved in the fisticuffs. No sense in having everyone else fight around you, let's see how well you can hold your own in a fight. DOC: I don't have time for this. And I'm certainly not fighting for your amusement. MOJO: Oh, but don't you realize, Doc? EVERYTHING is for our amusement. Your fans adore you. Like this charming young fellow attached to his phone over here. Tell Doc how much you love his work. FAN: Pleeeasssee… killlll meeee… MOJO: Ungrateful whelp! I'll have you executed. But slowly, it'll be a miniseries. Anyway, back to Doc, let's knock down this fourth wall and see what you're made of. *shatter* Wait, that's not supposed to happen! Quick, get a camera over there and see what's going on! Camera 3, whip pan right now! SUPERBOY PRIME: This isn't Earth Prime… MOJO: Oh boy, ladies and germs, we've got an unexpected development here. Some jackass wearing a Superman costume has arrived. Say, lad, this is a closed set. PRIME: I don't know who the hell you are, but no one orders me around. MOJO: This is MY show, and I'm the one giving orders here. PRIME: What kinda world is this where people take orders from an overweight half cyborg spider thing?  MOJO: THIS IS THE MOJOVERSE! And it's where you die!  DOC: Lemme jump through this portal real quick. YOINK! *teleportation sound* OK. No fighting, no Mojo, no Superboy Prime, so this is already a plus. EEYORE: Hello there. DOC: GAH!  EEYORE: You're awfully loud. DOC: Eeyore? EEYORE: Hi Doctor. DOC: How did I end up in the Hundred Acre Wood? And why don't you seem shocked? EEYORE: Don't know. I was just sitting here because I was supposed to have lunch with everyone. But it seems like they forgot me. Again. At least someone is here to talk to me. DOC: I'm very sorry. However, I have bigger things to deal with right now, so I need to find a way out of here. EEYORE: It's fine. Go ahead and leave. Everyone else has forgotten about me. You're no different. DOC: No, it's not that, it's just… *sigh*. Maybe this is all a test. Maybe I should be taking the time to help others, and that's how I'll end up getting helped myself. So, Eeyore, let's take a sec and chat. EEYORE: You mean it? DOC: I do. I could use a break from the insanity for a moment. Let's just talk about whatever you want. EEYORE: Thanks Doc. Well, yesterday I thought I'd lost my tail again. DOC: That sounds unfortunate. Did you find it? EEYORE: Yep.  DOC: That's great. Where was it? EEYORE: Pinned to my hind end. DOC: Oh. EEYORE: Yup. Spent the whole day looking for it. DOC: I see. *beat* Is that it? EEYORE: Yup. DOC: You sure there's nothing else you want to talk about? EEYORE: Well, there is one other thing. You see, I *teleportation sound* DOC: NO NOT AGAIN! EEYORE: Well s**t. THANOS: Doctor Issues. You created a web of lies and pain, and thought you could escape it. And where did that bring you? Back to me. DOC: Thanos, I- THANOS: Spare me your pitiful speech. You have unleashed a power equal to that of the Infinity Gems. This places you on a level close to me, and this is something I cannot permit to stand. So I have no choice but to kill you. DOC: At this point, I barely have the desire to fight back. THANOS: Oh that's a shame, because I've been looking forward to this for a while, and hearing your cries for mercy would have made victory that much sweeter. As it is I will acknowledge your acceptance. Farewell, Doctor. NEBULA: Not so fast, father. THANOS: Nebula, your betrayal is disappointing but not surprising. NEBULA: YEAAAHHH! Doctor, I have brought you a ship. You can return to Earth. DOC: Great, so I can go back and face all the people who want to kill me. THANOS: I am happy to kill you right now. NEBULA: Hnngghhh… that's exactly why you have to go back. If Thanos kills you, it will give him pleasure. And I cannot allow that to happen. THANOS: This is not up to you, daughter. I have no qualms about killing you as a precursor to the doctor's death. NEBULA: Doctor, you must leave. NOW. I will deal with my father. He will be made to suffer, as he did to me. DOC: But I. NEBULA: This is not a request. You did me a favor. Allow me to return it to you.  THANOS: You shall not leave, Doctor. I will obtain the Gems once again, and then I will bring you back here! NEBULA: DOCTOR! GO! DOC: Fine. But how do I even operate this thing? NEBULA: It is programmed to warp you back to Earth. Just press the big yellow button. THANOS: NO! I will not be denied! DOC: OK, here goes nothing. *button sound* spaceship takes off *warp sound* *spaceship door opens* I… Hello and welcome to Capes on the Couch, where comics get counseling. I'm Dr. Issues. I just wanted to say to everyone that's listened to all these episodes. Thank you, I love you all. Through no intention of my own, there have been many things that have happened, I'm sure you've heard of them. I want to issue an apology to anyone & everyone. I don't have the proper words for this. I just, I don't know what to do. I have no idea how I'm even going to broadcast this, because I'm probably banned from every source possible, and I don't know how to get this to my cohost. But if anyone hears… *breaks down* DOOM: CEASE YOUR INCESSANT AND UNNECESSARY TEARS, DOCTOR. YOUR PROBLEM HAS ALREADY BEEN RESOLVED THROUGH THE MIGHT OF DOOM. DOC: *sniffles* Huh? DOOM: DOOM HAS WIPED ALL TRACES OF THE FILES FROM THE WORLD.  DOC: WhahuhwhyhowWHAT?!?! DOOM: YOU ARE NOW ALSO AN HONORARY CITIZEN OF LATVERIA AND WILL ALWAYS HAVE A PLACE TO RESIDE, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE. DOC: What's the catch? DOOM: THERE IS NO CATCH. THIS HAS ALREADY BEEN ACCOMPLISHED. DOOM SEEKS NOTHING FURTHER FROM YOU. DOC: I want to say thank you. And I will. But first, WHY? DOOM: MANY THINK DOOM AS TYRANNICAL, INCLUDING YOURSELF. BY THIS GESTURE, DOOM'S MAGNANIMITY WILL BE PRESERVED FOR ALL TIME.  DOC: Well, I have to say that- DOOM: AND ALSO BECAUSE RICHARDS WAS UNABLE TO ARRIVE AT A SUPERIOR SOLUTION. DOC: Aaaaand there it is. DOOM: ONCE AGAIN PROVING THAT NONE ARE SUPERIOR TO DOOM. DOC: Of course not.  DOOM: MOVING FORWARD, YOUR OPINION OF DOOM WILL BE ONE OF GRATITUDE AND APPRECIATION. WHATEVER PREVIOUS OPINION YOU HAD IS NOW IRRELEVANT. DOC: Honestly, at this point, I can't even disagree with you. But I have to ask, aren't you concerned about all the people who tried to kill me? I mean, the files are eliminated, but the memories aren't. People still remember what I said about them. And they'll know you're responsible for getting rid of them. They'll come for you. DOOM: LET THEM TRY. MANY HAVE ATTEMPTED TO USURP DOOM. AND YET DOOM REMAINS. DOC: *sigh* Yep. Definitely not tyrannical at all. DOOM: DOOM SENSES SOME SARCASM. THIS GESTURE CAN BE UNDONE JUST AS EASILY. DOC: Noted. As a humble citizen of Latveria. My deepest appreciation… my liege. DOOM: YOUR APPRECIATION IS NOTED, GOOD CITIZEN, AND- DOC: Can I just ask one favor? DOOM: YOU DARE ASK MORE OF DOOM THAN HAS ALREADY BEEN PROVIDED? DOC: It's just… I need to get back home. Surely a simple task like this will not tax the might of Doom. DOOM: FINE. BE GONE AND RETURN HOME. BUT BE SURE TO SPREAD THE WORD THAT DOOM IS THE ONE WHO DID THIS FOR YOU. DOC: Oh don't worry, I'm telling everybody. Thanks Doc! *warp sound effect* Hoo boy, that was strange. ANTHONY: WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?!?! DOC: Oh man, it was nuts. I tried to call Batman, and then I was dragged to hell by Spawn, and Kingpin had me in his limo, and I was in- ANTHONY: No, I mean this burner phone Batman gave you has been sitting here ringing off the hook the whole time, but I didn't want to answer it because I figured it might explode, or it was wired to your DNA or something. You know how crafty Batman is. DOC: Are. You. F**king. Kidding. Me.

Questions Covered: 02:54 – Whichever of the standard folklore approaches one takes to faeries, it seems like it would be unusual for a faery to be baptized. Which in turn opens up some interesting questions about what’s going on with Cinderella having a faery as a godmother.  Maybe there’s an order of fair folk who returned to the faith, were baptized, and do good works on behalf of mortals.  They’re probably also suspected and persecuted by the institutional church. But Cinderella’s family is part of the remnant which maintains a connection with them.  Maybe this also has to do with why the stepmother treats Cinderella badly: the stepmother is an outsider and suspects what’s going on in the family history and she’s putting pressure on Cinderella to try to make her renounce her pietism.  Which of course makes it extremely dodgy to have someone with a faery godmother marrying into the royal family. There’s going to be some resistance to that.  Is there reconciliation? Is the country placed under interdict? Why don’t the stories address this stuff?  I have a few questions regarding the Soul Gem, one of the six Infinity Gems of Marvel Comics. Here I am specifically referring to the comic version, versus the film version. I do not know how much you know about the Infinity Gems, so here is some important background info:  — They were created as part of the Universe in the Big Bang  — Each allows for complete universal control over a different aspect of the universe: power, space, reality, the mind, the soul, and time.  1) 11:23 – The Soul Gem can warp and unwarp the soul. This means it can forcefully make beings evil or good. Thanos says: “I can turn sinners into saints, and saints into monsters.” Question: What effect does this have on free will, the need for God’s forgiveness, and Purgatory?  2) 14:39 – The Soul Gem can resurrect the dead. Thanos says, “And the dead, — their souls are also within my control.” Question: If someone was in Heaven and was resurrected, could they theoretically end up in Hell after they die a second time? What about going from Hell to Heaven?  3) Question: 17:06 – Could the Soul Gem fix Original Sin?  18:25 – What would happen to your soul if you were assimilated by the Borg? Let's assume that the cybernetic implants and the nanoprobes keep your body alive indefinitely, you are never killed, and you are never rescued.  20:16 – Before the fall, did Adam and Eve have to poop? And if so, would their poop have been stinky? Or would they have had perfect poop? Or would they not have pooped at all, and the digestion was perfect, with no need to poop.  22:41 – Is it possible to validly baptize an unborn baby? I’m thinking of an instance where maybe the mother is dying and the baby is not developed enough to survive outside the womb. If it is not possible, does the reasoning implicitly contradict the church’s teaching on life beginning at conception?   If it is possible to validly baptize an unborn baby in emergency situations, then what about non-emergency situations? It seems like it would be a good idea just in case something happens before the baby is born.  29:30 – What criteria would the Catholic Church have to consider if someone wanted to marry an alien?   Would the couple have to prove they can consummate the marriage?  Would they have to come up with some way to prove that they are the equivalent of the opposite sex?  What if any child they bear might have severe disabilities because of mixing species?  To that end, the Church is against bestiality, so would they have to come up with some criteria to distinguish human from beast?  34:40 – Why do all representations of the cross depict the corpus with a wound on the right side when the heart and plural sac are on the left? Would blood and water gush forth from the right side when a spear pie…

"I used to be embarrassed because I was just a comic book writer while other people were building bridges or going on to medical careers. And then I began to realize: Entertainment is one of the most important things in people's lives.

We talk about Avengers: Infinity War and the things you missed if you don't read the comics. Hear about the Black Order, Thanos, Bruce Banner, Hulk, Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Thor, Guardians of the Galaxy, Wanda Maximoff, Vision, Captain America, Black Widow, Black Panther, Gamora, and more! Talk with us on Twitter and Reddit. Links from the discussion… Thanos attacks Asgard The Black Order is the name of Thanos's band of bad dudes. The Black Order in the comics is different than the group in the movies. Thanos goes about finding the Infinity Gems much more differently in the comics. In the movie, Thanos wants to kill half of all life in order to help life sustain itself. In the comics, Thanos does it simply to appease his lover, Death. In the comics, this doesn't really work. A warning. In the movie, Banner is sent to Earth to warn strange. In the comics, the Silver Surfer does this. Attack of New York part II. Iron Man never had a nanite suit in the comics, at least not until these movies. In the comics, Dr. Strange has owned an infinity Gem, but not like how they portray it in the comics. First time we get to see the Iron-Spider suit. Thor meets the Guardians of the Galaxy The Guardians plan to go to Knowhere. Thor, Rocket and Groot plan to go to Nidavellir, which is one of the ten realms. A Strange Love This is the beginning of the Wanda/Vision love affair, which we will learn very well in Wandavision. In the comics, Vision doesn't not have a connection to the Mind Gem. This is a great highlight of how powerful Wanda is, in the movies and the comics. Return of the Lost Soldier Cap and the gang have been on the run for two years, after the events of Captain America: Civil War. Some fans call this "Nomad-Cap" but I don't really see it. A little girl named Gamora: There are some connections to Thanos and Gamora, but it's a bit different in the comics. Tony, Stephen and the Kid from Queens Death of Ebony Maw by a very familiar method. A plan to save Vision: There was always a push to make Shuri as smart, or smarter, than Tony Stark and Bruce Banner It was pretty clear from this scene that Wanda would have to kill Vision.

Bryan tells Hoadley about his endless nights trying to get his daughter to sleep, they discuss the power weed couple known as Snoopy Doggy Doggy & Martha Stewart and wonder how Trump will call the Holyfield  fight. Then the gang wonders why they cannot get anyone to watch them on YouTube while "Jesse" calls Thanos and gets 2,000,000 views!! Finally, Bryan and Krissy find Thanos' cell phone number and give him a ring to pick his brain. LINKS:Want a TCB limited edition collectible sticker?

We talk about Avengers: Age of Ultron and the things you missed if you never read the comics. Learn about Strucker, Wanda, Pietro, Hulk Buster, Ulysses Klaue, and more! Talk with us on Twitter. Strucker is a long lived character in the comics that didn't get much screen time in the movies before being killed off. Scarlet Witch is one of the most powerful magic wielders on Earth. Quicksilver was a member of the Avengers when they defeated Kang the Conquerer. In the comics the Iron Legion was a group of people led by War Machine to fight while Tony Stark was comatose. This group included Happy Hogan. Helen Cho is a minor character from the comics that gave birth to a son that eventually became a new Hulk. For a long time, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch were Magneto's children. But, that's been changed, mainly because of rights issues with Marvel and the X-men. There have been several Hulkbuster Armor suits in the comic books. Ultron gets killed in the comics but keeps coming back. Vision was created by Ultron from parts of the original Human Torch android. The Infinity Stones are also known as the Infinity Gems and the Soul Gems. It's true. Jarvis is growing more and more concerned with the growing schism between the MCU and the comics.

Jace talks about the fist issue of the Thanos Quest mini series as we see Thanos begin his mission to untie all the Infinity Gems. He takes on the In-Betweener as well as several of the Elders of the Universe who are unaware of the power of the gems they possess. We see that Thanos is the ultimate schemer as he undertakes his journey he has prepared unique way to defeat each foe and even has plans that he is hiding from Death herself. This is a crucial part of the story of Thanos and the Infinity Gauntlet that Jim Starlin has crafted in returning the Mad Titan to the pages of Marvel Comics.

Jace continues the Thanos Reading Order with a close look at Silver Surfer #40. Thanos is believed to be dead by the Surfer, Mentor and Eros, but Drax the Destroyer doesn't buy it for a second. Meanwhile Thanos himself know that his ploy has been somewhat successful, however, it this false demise isn't his only plan to ensure the Surfer doesn't interfere with his gathering of the Infinity Gems. More classic cosmic Marvel from the master of Marvel Cosmic, Jim Starlin.  

We gave the Infinity Gems of Hardcore to one random kid. Who would he erase? What would be the cost? What he did with that power shocked and terrified all that stood in his way. Shoutout Oneonta.

Jace continues his look at the chronological history of one of Marvel most enduring villains, Thanos. As hard as it is to believe, after Thanos's apparent death at the end of Marvel Two-in-One Annual #2, he was gone from the pages of Marvel comics for over a decade. However, once Jim Starlin returned, so did the Mad Titan. Silver Surfer #34 begins the epic tale which eventually leads to the Infinity Gauntlet story that so many know from the similar story told in the MCU. Not only does this bring Thanos back for good and establish him as one of the most enduring and influential characters of the Marvel universe, it inextricably links Silver Surfer, Thanos and the Infinity Gems themselves together. It's hard to think of a time when Thanos and the Surfer weren't to different sides of the same coin and the reason for that is the story that starts here.

Jace dives deep into a couple of X-Men titles. What the heck is Wolverine doing getting mixed up in the cosmic goings on of the Infinity Gems? And an even bigger question is why is he teaming up with Loki to do it? It's a rousing tale that is both cosmic and grounded in a way only a Wolverine story can be, with great Andy MacDonald art. Over in the Uncanny X-Men #14, the rag tag band of mutants Cyclops has managed to gather together has finally achieved a real victory. It's a small one, but this underpowered group that comprise the X-Men team will take it.

Here it is. The last Thanos story! Well, at least is was as the Mad Titan disappeared from the pages of Marvel Comics for about a decade until the Marvel Cosmic Master Jim Starling brought him back on a quest for the Infinity Gems in the pages of Silver Surfer for the February 1990 issue. Jace goes over the issue as we discover the fate of Thanos in this early era of his existence. Will he succeed in redeeming himself for his beloved, the embodiment of Death? Or will the heroes of the Marvel Universe emerge victorious?

 Comics with my Kids Episode 23 Comic Crossover Classic On our 23rd episode of Comics with my Kids, we team up with another Comic fan and his kid.

We have reached the end of Warlock as Jace talks about the final issue. It is not the end of the relationship between Thanos and Adam Warlock however, we learn that Thanos has big plans that he has been keeping hidden even from Gamora. However, the galaxies most dangerous female senses that Thanos is withholding from her and even more interesting despite her debt to Thanos, she is beginning to suspect she should be working to stop him rather than help him. Another very interesting aspect to this issue is Starlin revealing the existence of 5 more Infinity Gems. The seeds for all that comes later with the Infinity Gauntlet were planted very far back indeed. 

In this final episode of our series on the Black Order, we cover The Mad Titan Thanos, and the Infinity Gems. First, we chronologically cover all Thanos' comic book and movie history in our Lore segment. After Lore, we discuss his play style, and models presentation in our Strategy section, alongside a discussion of the Infinity Gems and Black Order cards.

Saying that the MCU Namor will be black, with his kingdom being made up of half Atlanteans and half Sub-Saharans. With some convoluted backstory about how they mixed. Then Shuri would be taking up the mantle of Black Panther. Or maybe T’challa will stay and just Boseman will be replaced more immediately a la Terrence Howard.Fantastic 4The F4 movie will not be an origin story. Sue Storm will have a baby with Namor, named Franklin. John Krasinski and Emily Blunt won’t be playing Reed and Sue, instead Feige is looking for younger actors…X-MenTHEN the X-Men movie will tie into all this mess by being based around a Civil War style feud between a young (and regendered) version of Xavier and Magneto, who are also fighting over which side Franklin will join. They will have a very small number of allies to start things off too.AvengersTHEN THEN For the Avengers movie The F4 and Professor X will team up with the Avengers who are still under contract to defeat Magneto, an unknown big bad, and Namor in the peripheral. There will be an Infinity Gem revival that is somehow related to Franklin.DaredevilThe word that the rights have reverted back early is still just a rumor. But a fun one to consider the ramifications for.HulkMarvel has reportedly got the rights back to the Hulk. And as such, there are further rumors that the Hulk V Wolverine movie is well into pre-production (or as much as could be expected.)Sinister SixRumored to be in development… Dane DeHaan was talking about it on a late night show?SupermanHenry Cavill has reportedly been talking with WB about his return as the blue boyscout, and is now reportedly willing to take a paycut just to stay in the tights.You can support this show by visiting our merch store, or by leaving us an Apple Podcasts review.

Way back in episode 19, we read our first Thanos comic when he returned from death in 1990 and started collected the Infinity Gems. Now, exactly 100 episodes later, we decided we’d take a look at how he actually died in the first place. It was surprisingly earlier in 1977’s Marvel Two-In-One Annual #2, written and drawn by Jim Starlin (because who else would it be?). And then we relive the terror of Galactus in Marvels #3! Next Time: Superman & Alan Moore times two with "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow" and "Superman: For the Man Who Has Everything"

We learnt a very important lesson with these picks - don't judge before you watch. Butcher finally discovers 2014's surprise hit Kingsman, along with 2009 remake The Last House On The Left, 2017 slasher Happy Death Day and hidden gem Columbiana (2011) starring Marvel's Zoe Saldana. While Dazzy is won over by the Child's Play reboot despite wanting to hate it. Plus a dark twist on the Superman story in Brightburn and another DC animated winner in Batman: Hush. Plus, we connect Mel Brooks to Eric Roberts in 5 movies or less.

This episode is full of 80s movies, limited released movies with big actors and a recent Netflix hit. Butcher presents 1989's Best Of The Best, 1986 animated classic Transformers The Movie and 2018's Mel Gibson thriller - Dragged Across Concrete. Dazzy spends Friday the 13th watching a classic 80s slasher, plus an incredible turn from Matt Smith as Charles Manson in Charlie Says (2018), a powerful true story in Netflix series Unbelievable (2019) and both Dazzy and Butcher defend 1999's Wild Wild West.

On this week's menu are 2007's viking fantasy Pathfinder, a lesser-known Stephen King gem Thinner (1996), Butcher surprises us with The Secret Life Of Pets, Dazzy's lukewarm reception to The Girl With All The Gifts (2016), one that flew under the radar The Dead Don't Die, comedy icon Hot Fuzz (2004), 1991's legnedary The Silence Of The Lambs and why 2016's Suicide Squad doesn't deserve as much hate as it gets.

After over a month off, Dazzy and The Butcher have more classic films and current streaming series to discuss including Tom Hardy's 2015 double duty as the Kray Twins in Legend, Sean Bean's Netflix series Broken, 1993's True Romance, 2015's horror Howl from Dog Soldiers director Neil Marshall, 1987 classic sci-fi thriller RoboCop, 2009's The Tournament and cult-iconic Welsh dark comedy Twin Town from 1997. Plus Dazzy explains why it took 10 years to appreciate The Godfather and Butcher urges against the Jacob's Ladder flop remake.

Dazzy and The Butcher return to clear their lists of gems from the past two weeks including the ORIGINAL "Of Mice And Men" from 1939, 2016 comedy "Keanu", "Creed" and it's recent sequel, 2016's award-winning "The People Vs. OJ Simpson" which Dazzy watched all 10 episodes of in a day, 2010 thriller "Shutter Island", Netflix's disappointing "Rim Of The World" and iconic Scottish sitcom "Still Game." Plus, after Stranger Things, we would be insane not to include the legendary 1984 fantasy "The Neverending Story"!

#movies #podcast #reviews In a show that ended with Butcher purchasing multiple Mark Wahlberg dvds, we've been watching thrillers such as Jordan Peele's US, The Man Who Haunted Himself (1970), Arctic (2018) and Netflix serial killer series Slasher. Plus hidden 80's gems Enemy Mine (1985) and Wildcats (1986), and early 00's The Italian Job (2003), Dead Man's Shoes (2004) and House Of The Devil (2009)

We've everything from the 60's to last year in this week's episode as we've been watching The Time Machine (1960), Star Trek: The Original Series, Greek classic 1963's Jason And The Argonauts and iconic 1986 sequel Aliens. Plus more modern gems Fortress (1992), Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), 2018's Bumblebee and psychological thriller Greta. And this week's recommendation of the week: an Oscar-winning 1992 comedy starring Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei...

After a few weeks off, Dazzy and Butcher are back with more tv shows and classic/online movies including "Bad Blood," "Timeless," "Dog Soldiers" (2002), "Love, Honour and Obey" (2000), "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" (1989), "Shawshank Redemption" (1994), Upstart Crow, Black Sails and some stinkers including "Batman & Robin" (1997) and The Asylum's mockbuster "Almighty Thor" (2011) PLUS this week's recommendation of the week: "The Lost City Of Z" (2017)

In this episode of Comic Book Break I talk about the Infinity Gauntlet story arc. Published by Marvel in 1991 this book, writen by Jim Starlin and pencilled by George Pérez and Ron Lim, shows what Thanos does with the Infinity Gems in the comic books.

This week on Dazzy and Butcher's watch list were 1971 thriller "Play Misty For Me" and 1981's legendary "Clash Of The Titans." Plus classic British sitcoms "Men Behaving Badly" and "Bread," as well as modern online shows "Black Summer," "Into The Badlands," "Rillington Place" and "Designated Survivor." Also getting a mention are "The Good Son," "Tin Star," 2008's "The Incredible Hulk" plus who was the best Superman?

In this episode, Greg, Leon and Rahul assemble to discuss, in epic detail, The culmination of 11 years and 22 movies. The ending of the Marvel Cinematic Universe “Infinity Saga”, Avengers: Endgame.

Dazzy and Butcher are back with a whole new show discussing the TV shows and classic DVDs they've been watching including Final Space and Trollhunters: Tales Of Arcadia, plus Grown Ups, Godzilla anime, Transformers The Movie (1986) and An American Werewolf in London. Also why X-Men Origins: Wolverine is worse with the CGI completed and just how many early Bruce Willis movies we haven't seen.

We gathered the Infinity Gems and altered reality to where we were able to meet up and record (for a grateful universe). We talk Nate's ailments, PlayStation 5 details, Midwest Gaming Classic, Star Wars Celebration and Endgame. Its almost as long as Endgame, so get ready... 'cuz we're "inevitable". 

It's a special bonus mini episode! And it's full of spoilers!* Matt and Tony ride those sweet, sweet superhero coattails and use the release of Avengers: Endgame to finally read Marvel's 1991 event comic, The Infinity Gauntlet, which serves as one of the key inspirations for the 20-plus movie, 11 years in the making saga that built towards last year's Avengers: Infinity War and culminated last week with Avengers: Endgame. *It's not FULL of spoilers (we're not monsters) but it is spoilery. You've been warned. A few times. And will be during the episode.

With Thanos Quest complete, it's time for us to move on to a MAJOR KEY! Today Ryan and I chat about Silver Surfer #44. the 1st full appearance of the infinity Gauntlet.

The Infinity Gems power the Infinity Gauntlet and as you might expect, they've have switched hands a time or two. The real question, though, is "Where did they come from?"

This week on The Comic Box: We start on the road to Infinity War with a look at the comic book origins of the Infinity Gems, later called the Infinity Stones, and one lovesick puppy's quest to use them to bedazzle his favorite mitten and impress a girl.

 Imagine with me for a moment anything you wish to be you are… anything you wish is…nothing in this universe dares challenge that claim, there can be only one word to describe you GOD  ----more---- That’s what I want to talk about today is marvels Infinity Gauntlet   This topic has been slowly brewing for the last few years because of the MCU movies and the underlying thread of the infinity gems and Thanos. Where and when did all these stories and characters come from? That’s what I want to explore today.   Specifically the 1990’s iterations of the gems and Thanos, yes he had gathered 5 of the six gems previously, but this is the first time he obtained all 6 and this is where Disney/Marvel got there inspiration for the MCU.   This was the start of the decade’s long Infinity saga that we are still exploring today in the MCU   Complete show notes

As the Marvel Cinematic Universe hurtles towards the much anticipated Avengers: Infinity War, the mysterious Infinity Stones have played an increasingly important role in these films. But far from being a creation of Hollywood, the Infinity Gems (as they are known in the comics) have been a part of the Marvel Universe since the early 1970's. As some of the most powerful artifacts out there, the Stones have played a major role in shaping the very fabric of the Marvel Universe, going so far as to have not one, but three different events surrounding them. Some Assembly Required consolidates over 40 years of comics continuity into something a little easier to digest. Join us and prepare for the coming of Thanos and The Infinity War.

A race of beings known as the Eternals colonized Saturn's moon Titan. Here these Titanians had no idea what they birthed when the mutated, purple child known as Thanos was Born. A nihilist, spending most of his time in solitude, Thanos became obsessed with Death, both the concept and the entity. After augmenting himself with cybernetic implants and Infinity Gems, Thanos became an enemy to all life in the Multiverse. Thanks Kirby Krackle for the theme music!

Thanos! He’s a big purple dude that keeps showing up in the Marvel movies… but why is everyone always freaking out about him? Since he’s gonna be the big bad in the next Avengers movie, we figured we’d get some backstory by reading the 1990 comics where he became a major player. And it all started with his resurrection in Silver Surver 34-38, followed by his hunt for the Infinity Gems in Thanos Quest 1-2. Writer Jim Starlin takes us into the world of Marvel’s cosmic galaxy that he helped form, and artist Ron Lim gives us some breath-taking psychedelic images. What a team!

The Good Doctor [rating:2.5/5] Major Spoilers Poll of the Week When it comes to space travel, there are a couple of routes you can go. The first is the safe route, which means it takes 100 years or more to put a colony on the Moon, which is a good thing, because everyone knows the Moon blew up in 1999. The other is to seek out strange new worlds, and make a buck or two by smuggling spice for the Hutts. The second is a bit more reckless, but can lead to so much more in the end. Which brings us to the Major Spoilers Poll of the Week! [poll id="272"] LINK Discussion: THE CURSE OF DRACULA The Curse of Dracula is back in this deluxe new hardcover edition!
