The Superhero Show Show #588The Rise of Marvel's Forgotten Heroes on Spider-Man: The Animated Series On this week's The Superhero Show Show, the Taste Buds dive deep into Spider-Man: The Animated Series Season 5, Episode 3: Six Forgotten Warriors Chapter 3: Secrets of the Six. This installment uncovers long-buried super-soldier secrets, Cold War betrayals, and the rise of the Six Forgotten Warriors—all while villains like Kingpin and Red Skull close in on a world-changing weapon.If you're a fan of comic-book-based TV shows, this arc combines Marvel's golden age history with Spider-Man's most emotional personal revelations.What Are the Secrets of the Six?The episode finally answers the central mystery: Who are the Six Forgotten Warriors?They're not just Cold War footnotes—they're WWII-era super-soldiers created after Captain America's disappearance. But with time, politics, and betrayal burying their legacy, these heroes faded from public memory… until now.The panel discusses how Spider-Man: TAS cleverly weaves these original characters into Marvel's mythos, creating an alternate version of events that mirrors the Super Soldier Serum storyline. The Secrets of the Six reveal how these warriors were part of a doomed experiment—and how one of them, Keene Marlow, is the key to unlocking everything.Related episode: Unclaimed Legacy – Chapter 2 RecapKingpin and Red Skull Battle for the Forgotten WeaponWhile Spider-Man uncovers the truth, Kingpin and Red Skull race to seize control of the ultimate WWII-era doomsday device—a weapon hidden by the Six decades earlier.Kingpin's criminal empire crosses paths with global politics, manipulating intelligence agencies and supervillains alike to claim the weapon. Meanwhile, Red Skull—long thought dead—reemerges as a terrifying legacy villain. Their clash raises the stakes to global proportions, giving this animated episode serious MCU-level energy.Who is Red Skull? (Marvel Fandom)Meet Kingpin in the Spider-VerseKeene Marlow Is Revealed as The DestroyerFan speculation pays off as Keene Marlow is confirmed to be a founding member of the Six—and in Marvel Comics, he's known as The Destroyer, a Golden Age hero created in 1941.In the show, Marlow is a grizzled, world-weary soldier who watched his teammates fade into history and now wrestles with the consequences of decisions made in secret. The podcast explores how this reveal deepens the show's lore and draws connections to Captain America: The First Avenger, decades before the film even existed.The Destroyer on Marvel FandomPeter Parker's Family Tied to the SixIn a shocking twist, Spider-Man learns that his parents, Richard and Mary Parker, may have worked alongside or against the Six during their Cold War missions. This haunting possibility drives Peter to question not just the history of these forgotten heroes, but the

MCU tries to reset, Murderbot tries to escape emotional damage. This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl break down Captain America: Brave New World, where Sam Wilson's shield meets political paranoia and a very red, very angry Hulk. Then it's back into the soap-operatic arms of Murderbot, as Episode 5 serves up sabotage, sass, and an unexpected anatomy lesson. One's trying to save the world, the other just wants to be left alone with their shows—and honestly, we relate. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Murderbot: Virtue Signal: Brave New World: Murderbot (AppleTV) Episode 5: “Rogue War Tracker Infinite Summary After a near-fatal reprogramming, Murderbot is saved by the PresAux team and meets Leebeebee—the lone DeltFall survivor—who hilariously fixates on Murderbot's… anatomy. Meanwhile, Murderbot reveals it's hacked its governor module and asserts its loyalty to the crew. Cliffhanger: sabotage at the distress beacon.

Send us a textThe Marvel Cinematic Universe stands at a crossroads, and Captain America: Brave New World perfectly embodies this uncertain moment. What happens when sidekicks become heroes, and their sidekicks become new sidekicks? How does a franchise maintain momentum after its defining narrative conclusion?Sam Wilson's journey from Falcon to Captain America should feel triumphant, but instead reveals deeper issues within the MCU's current direction. The film attempts to resurrect storylines from The Incredible Hulk (2008), finally acknowledges the celestial from Eternals, and introduces adamantium as a bridge to the X-Men universe—yet these connections feel more like obligation than inspiration.While Anthony Mackie brings charisma and conviction to his role, and the action sequences showcase his unique fighting style effectively, the political thriller elements don't reach the heights established by Winter Soldier. President Thaddeus Ross (now played by Harrison Ford) and the return of The Leader as antagonists create intriguing dynamics, but the stakes never feel as consequential as the film wants us to believe.This episode dives deep into what works and what doesn't in Brave New World, while exploring the broader question of MCU fatigue. Have we reached a point where even the most devoted fans are becoming disenchanted? Is there a path forward that recaptures the magic that made these interconnected stories feel special rather than obligatory?We also compare Marvel's approach to continuity with Star Wars', examining how different creative structures lead to different storytelling outcomes. The MCU's "Marvel Parliament" versus Lucasfilm's Story Group reveals fascinating contrasts in how franchises maintain coherence across multiple projects.Whether you're still fully invested in the MCU or feeling the fatigue, this conversation offers fresh perspectives on where superhero storytelling might go from here. Is it time for Marvel to take a break and recalibrate, or push forward into bold new territory?Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@projectgeekologyGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbASupport the show

Feige wants a more socially-conscious approach (which falls in line with traditional themes present in the X-Men mythos), while Iger wants a more toned-down, big-event-focused film and cinematic universe. And of course, all the movies and TV shows the fellas have been watching are discussed as well. There's all this and more in episode 77 of The Fun Waste of Time!

I have sadly sworn off the MCU for some time now. None of the offerings in recent years have appealed to me but when Captain America: Brave New World showed up on Disney Plus I decided to give it a try. Featuring the debut of Harrison Ford's Red Hulk character, could this be the movie that brings me back into the Marvel Universe? Not so fast. Join me while I try to find a ray of hope inside this flawed super hero movie.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes.In a fairly shocking move, Marvel Studios will not have one of its classic Hall H presentations at San Diego Comic Con this year. Due to Avengers: Doomsday filming, the studio is opting not to pause production to fly actors to California. Marvel will still have panels and events throughout SDCC, just not the spectacle of Hall H, which has become a mainstay for the MCU particularly. This news is coupled with a recent appearance from the cast of The Fantastic Four: First Steps at the CCPX promotional fan event in Mexico City last weekend, as well as buzz surrounding a supposed test screening for the fast approaching filmAt the TUDUM fan event this weekend, Netflix finally revealed the final season of Stranger Things will air in three parts late this year. The first will premiere November 26, followed by part two on Christmas and the series finale on New Year's Eve .Netflix also unveiled trailers for two of its anticipated upcoming films, Frankenstein - directed by Guillermo del Toro - and Knives Out 3: Wake Up Dead Man - directed by Rian Johnson. The films premiere in November and December, respectively, and both feature star-studded casts - something we've come to expect from Johnson's Knives Out films and what makes sense for a filmmaker as storied as del Toro. Frankenstein features Oscar Isaac in the titular role, as well as Jacob Elordi as the Monster, plus Mia Goth, and Christoph Waltz. Knives Out 3 is helmed once again by Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc, and has a list of A-lister stars including Jeremy Renner and Kerry Washington.The second full summer box office weekend was favorable, with Disney's live action Lilo & Stitch up 51 percent from the prior week, and Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning climbing up 55 percent. Sony's Karate Kid Legends opened to a $20 million domestic weekend as well. Seems like it's all sequels all the time right now for the summer box office.If insider Jeff Schneider's latest scoop is to be believed, Laura Linney has joined the cast of HBO's Lanterns series in an undisclosed role.HBO Max has renewed Emmy award winning series Hacks for a fifth season, which will make the series the longest-running live-action show in HBO Max's history.The highly-anticipated Elden Ring movie at A24 helmed by Alex Garland may be zeroing on a familiar face to lead the epic adaptation. Sources tell Deadline the director is in talks with Kit Connor, who recently appeared in his war pic Warfare, to star in the adaptation.Chris Hemsworth set Marvel twitter ablaze last week after posting a heartfelt message to MCU fans, which many took as a suggestion that Thor would not make it through Avengers: Doomsday. The post read: "Playing Thor has been one of the greatest honors of my life. For the last 15 years I've held Mjolnir and then Stormbreaker as the God of Thunder, but what made it truly special… was sharing it with all of you. Your passion, your cheers, and your love for this character have meant everything to me. Thank you for making my journey through the Marvel Cinematic Universe unforgettable. Next up, Doomsday!"Electronic Arts is canceling its planned Black Panther game and shutting down developer Cliffhanger Games according to IGN.Scott Caan and Elizabeth Debicki have been cast in David Fincher's sequel to Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and will be joining Brad Pitt in the feature that is being made by Netflix.Oscar nominee and Grammy winner Ariana Grande has joined the cast of the next installment in the Meet the Parents franchise, which will hit theaters on November 25, 2026.
In this episode of Geek Freaks, Frank and Squeaks sit down with middle school teacher Mark Daumier, who's using comic books to revolutionize how kids engage with reading. Mark shares how he turned his love of comics into a classroom staple, building a library of over 14,000 comics and using them to teach visual literacy, historical events, and critical thinking. Plus, the Geek Freaks crew breaks down everything from the new King of the Hill revival and Vision series casting to the cancellation of EA's Black Panther game and the Switch 2 release. If you're a fan of comics, games, or how pop culture shapes education, this one's for you. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00:00 Introduction and Patreon shoutouts 00:00:45 Guest Preview: Mark Daumier's comic-based classroom 00:02:09 Comfort Games: Mass Effect, Space Marine, and Animal Crossing 00:04:01 King of the Hill revival and modern updates to the cast 00:08:24 Marvel Vision Series: Jocasta's debut and Ultron's return 00:12:12 EA cancels Black Panther game, industry layoffs discussed 00:20:34 Pokemon Legends Z-A and Switch 2 impressions 00:26:35 Full breakdown of the Switch 2's hardware, internet issues, and accessory talk 00:31:09 Upcoming Switch 2 games and gimmicky features 00:33:00 Assassin's Creed Shadows and Cyberpunk on Switch 00:33:16 Interview: Mark Daumier on comic books in the classroom 00:35:50 Comic book reading comprehension and visual learning 00:38:01 Mark's early comic fandom and Spider-Man subscription 00:43:44 Teaching narrative structures and novel writing with comics 00:47:12 Star Wars and pop culture in student assignments 00:50:03 Comic fandoms, MCU popularity, and Thunderbolts in class 00:59:19 Advice for teachers: meeting students where they are 01:01:10 Watchlist: Ironheart, The Bear, Squid Game Season 3 01:02:33 Movie Talk: Ballerina, How to Train Your Dragon, 28 Years Later 01:04:22 Pixar's Leo and the debate around Disney originals 01:06:13 F1 with Brad Pitt and Megan 2.0 reactions 01:07:42 Recommendations of the Week: Warhammer Darktide and Marvel's Darth Vader (2020) Key Takeaways: Comics help bridge the gap for students who struggle with traditional reading. Mark Daumier uses over 14,000 comics in his curriculum, including creative assignments like comic-style reports. Comics like Watchmen and Dark Knight Returns are powerful but carefully used depending on student maturity. Star Wars, Captain America, and Spider-Man continue to resonate with students. The Vision series and Jocasta casting hint at deeper Marvel storytelling on the horizon. EA's canceled Black Panther game reflects broader industry issues. The Switch 2 launches with improvements but raises concerns about internet requirements. Original stories from Disney and Pixar are in demand more than retellings. Memorable Quotes: “If you read 20–25 comic books, that's the same as reading a novel.” — Mark Daumier “Comics help kids visualize what they're reading. That unlocks everything else.” — Mark Daumier “I was like, can I teach in your class now?” — Frank Lourence “Nintendo throws stuff at the wall to see what sticks. Sometimes they reinvent the industry.” — Squeaks Call to Action: Love what you heard? Subscribe to Geek Freaks on your favorite podcast platform and leave us a review.
