Spider-Man: Brand New Day is the best Tom Holland Spider-Man yet, and Brian and Tony dive into why it lands so hard. From the film's biggest emotional moments to the post-credit theory that could reshape the MCU, the conversation explores the scenes, the secrets, and the sequel possibilities fans are already debating.Brian shares why this one feels more personal than No Way Home, including the standout Punisher team-up, the surprise moments that nearly brought tears, and the lingering questions around MJ, Ned, and the ending. Tony pushes the discussion toward bigger Marvel territory, wondering whether the film is setting up Secret Wars, Avengers: Doomsday, and a future with Miles Morales. Oren adds comic-book context, key details, and the theories that make the speculation even more fun.The episode also touches on the return of Ted Lasso, why the new season opener feels more like setup than payoff, and how the group feels about the show's shift in tone and focus. It's a mix of fan reaction, honest critique, and Marvel speculation that makes you want to rewatch the ending immediately.If you love Spider-Man, MCU theories, or passionate pop-culture discussion, this one is essential listening.Listen: https://the-knowledge-of-nothing.captivate.fm/listenContact us at info@theknowledgeofnothing.com and follow us on our socials!https://www.facebook.com/theknowledgeofnothing/Instagram: @theknowledgeofnothingTwitter: @TheKONMen1Bluesky: @thekonmen.bsky.social

Pro wrestler Gianni Michael Emricko joins Sorg, Rizz and Mad Mike for an episode packed with WWE SummerSlam reactions, Pittsburgh independent wrestling news and a spoiler-heavy trip through Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The crew opens by asking a surprising question: Was SummerSlam more enjoyable than WrestleMania? They examine a second night filled with fan-service moments, major returns and championship developments. Topics include Chelsea Green's victory, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns seemingly closing another chapter of their shared history, CM Punk versus Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens returning to the championship picture, Nick Aldis stepping back into the ring, Dominik Mysterio's success in AAA and WWE's evolving relationship with lucha libre. Gianni also receives some major news live on the show. His scheduled match at Prospect Pro Wrestling has changed, and he and Gorgeous Gregory will now challenge The Troublemakers for the NWA JCP Tag Team Championship. Gianni responds with an impromptu message for the champions and explains why the Italian Strongman plans to bring NWA gold home. The conversation then turns toward Gianni's recent match with EFFY at 880 Wrestling, his growing list of appearances throughout the region and the practical lessons he has learned while building his wrestling career. His advice is simple: get in the car, attend shows, help with the ring and production, introduce yourself and become someone promoters and wrestlers enjoy having in the locker room. Sorg also reveals new details for Sorgstock, including a surprising battle between Psychedelic Dreams members Sammy Suntheimer and Billy the Alien, plus wrestling-theme music from Sykes. After an official spoiler warning, the crew dives deeply into Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Gianni gives the film a 9.6 and calls it one of the most authentically Spider-Man stories yet. The discussion covers Peter Parker's stripped-down life, the introduction of Jean Grey, Punisher's role, mutant technology, the Hulk battle, Ned's potentially significant handshake, Miles Morales speculation and possible connections to Secret Wars and the wider multiverse. The episode closes with the viral video of Beastman and Sam Adonis helping break up a festival fight, followed by “What We Learned,” where Mad Mike argues that WWE is misunderstanding the basic appeal of Joe Hendry. News Stories and Topics Discussed The original Mayhem crew reunites: Sorg welcomes Rizz and Mad Mike, with early conversation covering Mad Mike's LEGO Soundwave set, teaching and the increasingly responsible lives of the show's longtime hosts. SummerSlam versus WrestleMania: The panel considers whether SummerSlam delivered a more consistently entertaining weekend than WrestleMania. WWE production mistakes: A misspelled commercial-break graphic launches a discussion about live production errors, unrealistic expectations and why even major companies make visible mistakes. SummerSlam's fan-service-heavy second night: Chelsea Green's title victory, Baron Corbin's return and Kevin Owens reentering the championship picture make Sorg wonder whether someone secretly used his fantasy booking. Chelsea Green's championship moment: The crew celebrates Green's victory, the reaction from her fellow wrestlers and how her success contrasts with comments discussed from WWE: Unreal. Hell in a Cell: The match's violence, ring destruction and feud-ending atmosphere are praised as an effective use of the stipulation. Seth Rollins versus Roman Reigns: The match is viewed as a possible closing chapter for The Shield, with particular interest in what comes next for Seth and a more independent Roman Reigns. Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar: Gianni offers a wrestler's perspective on the decision not to perform a dangerous spot directly onto exposed wood. Roman Reigns and AAA: Roman's interaction with Rey Mysterio creates fantasy-booking possibilities involving TripleMania, Worlds Collide, Penta, Jacob Fatu and The Lucha Brothers. Solo Sikoa's changing audience reaction: The hosts discuss how the SummerSlam build helped Solo emerge as an entertaining and increasingly sympathetic figure. Dominik Mysterio's popularity: The panel argues that Dominik feels like a major star in AAA and deserves a larger, more consistent role on WWE programming. Nick Aldis versus Gunther: Aldis' return to the ring impresses the crew and sparks speculation about a longer in-ring run or a future match with Adam Pearce. CM Punk versus Cody Rhodes: The match receives a more measured defense than some online reactions, while Kevin Owens' return sets up a potentially excellent microphone-driven rivalry with Punk. Nikki Bella's heel turn: A possible injury to Brie Bella leads to fantasy booking involving Paige, AJ Lee and a potential legends-focused WarGames match. Liv Morgan versus IYO SKY: The opening match and its finishing sequence are highlighted as one of the weekend's strongest performances. SummerSlam attendance and location: The crew discusses tarped seating, the lack of a public attendance announcement and whether Minneapolis was an ideal destination for a major summer wrestling event. Sorgstock announcement: Sammy Suntheimer will face his Psychedelic Dreams partner Billy the Alien, raising questions about tension inside the team. Gianni's championship opportunity: Gianni and Gorgeous Gregory will challenge The Troublemakers for the NWA JCP Tag Team Championship at Prospect Pro Wrestling. Gianni's live promo: The Italian Strongman immediately delivers a message promising that the NWA championship will not remain on Glenn Spectre's shoulder. Wrestling EFFY at 880 Wrestling: Gianni explains how the crowd quickly sided with EFFY, forcing him to adjust and embrace being the heel during the match. Breaking into new wrestling promotions: Gianni recommends traveling, introducing yourself, helping with setup and stepping outside your normal comfort zone. Locker-room reputation: Being positive, safe and helpful can be as important as social-media numbers when promoters decide whom they want to book again. Avoiding unhealthy environments: Gianni explains that a negative locker room—or a place where he does not feel safe in the ring—is unlikely to receive a return visit. Spider-Man spoiler discussion: The crew praises the film's grounded version of Peter Parker, swinging sequences, action choreography and emotional tone. Jean Grey and the mutants: The movie's mutant storyline leads to discussion of Jean Grey, Phoenix references, inhibitor technology and the future of the MCU's X-Men. Punisher's role: The panel examines Punisher's hospital scenes, his public identity and how he fits into a world where Spider-Man has regained public support. Ned and Peter's handshake: The hosts debate whether Ned consciously remembers Peter or simply feels a lingering connection that he cannot explain. Miles Morales and the multiverse: Potential clues are connected to Beyond the Spider-Verse, Doomsday, Secret Wars and the possibility of Miles eventually entering live action. Marvel physical media: Mad Mike displays elaborate Marvel and Harry Potter box sets, prompting nostalgia for collector editions filled with props, files and hidden compartments. Additional movie discussion: The crew briefly reviews Backrooms, Obsession, Eternals, New Mutants, the Fox X-Men films and the Spider-Man video games. Beastman goes viral again: Video from Tacos and Tequila shows Beastman and Sam Adonis helping break up a real fight, inspiring the suggestion that venues should hire Beastman as security. What We Learned Sorg: Never start a fight when Beastman is nearby. After watching the viral festival video, Sorg's larger conclusion is that Beastman may be the most effective security option available. Gianni Michael Emricko: Gianni learns the full details of his changed Prospect Pro Wrestling match during the episode. He and Gorgeous Gregory are receiving an NWA JCP Tag Team Championship opportunity, and Gianni confidently predicts that Glenn Spectre will not leave with his championship. Mad Mike: From Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Mike learns that it is okay to be sad. From wrestling, he learns that WWE appears confused about Joe Hendry. He argues that Hendry's entire presentation is built around “say his name and he appears,” yet WWE repeatedly brings him out without anyone saying his name, cuts away from his entrance and presents his musical segments more like Elias. Mike believes this removes the elements audiences are already excited to see. Rizz: Rizz does not give a separate standalone lesson in the closing segment, but contributes to the discussion about WWE failing to preserve the established logic and audience appeal of Joe Hendry's character.

WWE production mistakes: A misspelled commercial-break graphic launches a discussion about live production errors, unrealistic expectations and why even major companies make visible mistakes. SummerSlam's fan-service-heavy second night: Chelsea Green's title victory, Baron Corbin's return and Kevin Owens reentering the championship picture make Sorg wonder whether someone secretly used his fantasy booking. Chelsea Green's championship moment: The crew celebrates Green's victory, the reaction from her fellow wrestlers and how her success contrasts with comments discussed from WWE: Unreal. Hell in a Cell: The match's violence, ring destruction and feud-ending atmosphere are praised as an effective use of the stipulation. Seth Rollins versus Roman Reigns: The match is viewed as a possible closing chapter for The Shield, with particular interest in what comes next for Seth and a more independent Roman Reigns. Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar: Gianni offers a wrestler's perspective on the decision not to perform a dangerous spot directly onto exposed wood. Roman Reigns and AAA: Roman's interaction with Rey Mysterio creates fantasy-booking possibilities involving TripleMania, Worlds Collide, Penta, Jacob Fatu and The Lucha Brothers. Solo Sikoa's changing audience reaction: The hosts discuss how the SummerSlam build helped Solo emerge as an entertaining and increasingly sympathetic figure. Dominik Mysterio's popularity: The panel argues that Dominik feels like a major star in AAA and deserves a larger, more consistent role on WWE programming. Nick Aldis versus Gunther: Aldis' return to the ring impresses the crew and sparks speculation about a longer in-ring run or a future match with Adam Pearce. CM Punk versus Cody Rhodes: The match receives a more measured defense than some online reactions, while Kevin Owens' return sets up a potentially excellent microphone-driven rivalry with Punk. Nikki Bella's heel turn: A possible injury to Brie Bella leads to fantasy booking involving Paige, AJ Lee and a potential legends-focused WarGames match. Liv Morgan versus IYO SKY: The opening match and its finishing sequence are highlighted as one of the weekend's strongest performances. SummerSlam attendance and location: The crew discusses tarped seating, the lack of a public attendance announcement and whether Minneapolis was an ideal destination for a major summer wrestling event. Sorgstock announcement: Sammy Suntheimer will face his Psychedelic Dreams partner Billy the Alien, raising questions about tension inside the team. Gianni's championship opportunity: Gianni and Gorgeous Gregory will challenge The Troublemakers for the NWA JCP Tag Team Championship at Prospect Pro Wrestling. Gianni's live promo: The Italian Strongman immediately delivers a message promising that the NWA championship will not remain on Glenn Spectre's shoulder. Wrestling EFFY at 880 Wrestling: Gianni explains how the crowd quickly sided with EFFY, forcing him to adjust and embrace being the heel during the match. Breaking into new wrestling promotions: Gianni recommends traveling, introducing yourself, helping with setup and stepping outside your normal comfort zone. Locker-room reputation: Being positive, safe and helpful can be as important as social-media numbers when promoters decide whom they want to book again. Avoiding unhealthy environments: Gianni explains that a negative locker room—or a place where he does not feel safe in the ring—is unlikely to receive a return visit. Spider-Man spoiler discussion: The crew praises the film's grounded version of Peter Parker, swinging sequences, action choreography and emotional tone. Jean Grey and the mutants: The movie's mutant storyline leads to discussion of Jean Grey, Phoenix references, inhibitor technology and the future of the MCU's X-Men. Punisher's role: The panel examines Punisher's hospital scenes, his public identity and how he fits into a world where Spider-Man has regained public support. Ned and Peter's handshake: The hosts debate whether Ned consciously remembers Peter or simply feels a lingering connection that he cannot explain. Miles Morales and the multiverse: Potential clues are connected to Beyond the Spider-Verse, Doomsday, Secret Wars and the possibility of Miles eventually entering live action. Marvel physical media: Mad Mike displays elaborate Marvel and Harry Potter box sets, prompting nostalgia for collector editions filled with props, files and hidden compartments. Additional movie discussion: The crew briefly reviews Backrooms, Obsession, Eternals, New Mutants, the Fox X-Men films and the Spider-Man video games. Beastman goes viral again: Video from Tacos and Tequila shows Beastman and Sam Adonis helping break up a real fight, inspiring the suggestion that venues should hire Beastman as security. What We Learned Sorg: Never start a fight when Beastman is nearby. After watching the viral festival video, Sorg's larger conclusion is that Beastman may be the most effective security option available. Gianni Michael Emricko: Gianni learns the full details of his changed Prospect Pro Wrestling match during the episode. He and Gorgeous Gregory are receiving an NWA JCP Tag Team Championship opportunity, and Gianni confidently predicts that Glenn Spectre will not leave with his championship. Mad Mike: From Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Mike learns that it is okay to be sad. From wrestling, he learns that WWE appears confused about Joe Hendry. He argues that Hendry's entire presentation is built around “say his name and he appears,” yet WWE repeatedly brings him out without anyone saying his name, cuts away from his entrance and presents his musical segments more like Elias. Mike believes this removes the elements audiences are already excited to see. Rizz: Rizz does not give a separate standalone lesson in the closing segment, but contributes to the discussion about WWE failing to preserve the established logic and audience appeal of Joe Hendry's character.

Tom Holland just said the quiet part out loud on the Spider-Man: Brand New Day press tour, and it changes how we should think about the future of the MCU's web-slinger. Speaking to the AP, Holland confirmed that a plan to pass the baton is already in place, and it points to Miles Morales rather than another rebooted Peter Parker in the mold of Tobey Maguire or Andrew Garfield.In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down exactly what Holland said, why he wants to mentor the next Spider-Man the way Robert Downey Jr. once mentored him, and what it means that he also wants to keep playing Peter Parker for as long as Marvel will have him. That combination sets up something the movies have never fully committed to before: an adult Peter Parker acting as a mentor and possible leader in the MCU, with Miles Morales stepping into the suit as the fresh face.We also get into the big fan question hanging over all of this. With Beyond the Spider-Verse wrapping the animated Spider-Verse trilogy, the door is opening for Miles to cross into live action. Could Avengers: Secret Wars be the moment he arrives? We make the case for why that timing fits.0:00 Tom Holland Names Miles Morales as His Successor0:14 Holland Wants to Mentor the Next Spider-Man0:22 Holland's Full Quote on His Ambitions for the Character0:44 He Also Wants to Keep Playing Peter Parker0:58 What This Plan Means: An Adult Peter as Mentor and Leader1:14 Will Miles Debut in Secret Wars?Tom Holland says the plan to pass the Spider-Man mantle is already in place, and it leads to Miles Morales rather than a new teenage Peter Parker.Holland wants to shepherd the next actor into the role the same way Robert Downey Jr. guided him into the MCU.He also wants to keep playing Peter Parker as long as Marvel will have him, which opens the door to an adult Peter mentoring Miles on screen.This would break the pattern of recasting a younger Peter and repeating the high school years, which fans have seen twice already.With the animated Spider-Verse trilogy wrapping up, the path clears for Miles Morales to move into live action alongside Holland's Peter.Secret Wars is shaping up as a natural entry point for Miles, and it would be a fitting stage for his arrival.Tom Holland on his goal for the character: "I have a desire to bring Miles Morales to the screen and to shepherd whoever the lucky young kid is that gets that job, in the way that Robert Downey Jr. did for me. I think that would be a really awesome way to end my tenure as Spider-Man."Frank's take: "I personally feel like it's about damn time we get Miles Morales in live action."Do you think the MCU is ready for Miles Morales? Should Holland keep the suit while Miles suits up too, or is it time for a full handoff? And do you want to see Miles debut in Secret Wars?

Chris Klimek presides over a multiversal showdown between two of the most beloved Spider-Man films: Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2 and the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. One is a live-action, early-2000s studio blockbuster that crystallized the modern superhero movie — grounded in practical effects, emotional melodrama, and a deeply human Peter Parker torn between responsibility and desire. The other is a radically stylized animated film that reimagines what superhero storytelling can look like, embracing comic book form itself as its visual language. Arguing for Spider-Man 2 is Matt Singer (Marvel's Spider-Man: From Amazing to Spectacular), who makes the case that Raimi’s film remains the definitive Peter Parker story. Arguing for Spider-Verse is Daisy Rosario, who contends that the film not only updates but expands the Spider-Man mythos. Which one better captures the essence of Spider-Man — and why does that question remain so difficult to answer? Choose your winner at moviedeathmatch.com.

¿Quién es el mejor Spider-Man: Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield o Tom Holland? Antes del estreno de Spider-Man: Brand New Day —Spider-Man: Un Nuevo Día— hacemos el juicio definitivo para descubrir quién es el mejor Peter Parker, quién funciona mejor bajo la máscara y qué película entendió realmente al Hombre Araña.Spider-Man lleva más de 60 años cambiando de rostro, traje, universo y personalidad. En este episodio de Trollywood Podcast repasamos su historia desde Amazing Fantasy #15, la serie animada de 1967, el extraño Spider-Man japonés, la icónica serie animada de los años 90 y Spider-Man: The New Animated Series, hasta Miles Morales y el fenómeno de Spider-Verse.También enfrentamos a Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield y Tom Holland en diferentes categorías: mejor Peter Parker, mejor Spider-Man, mejor romance, mejores villanos, mejor traje, mejor escena de balanceo y la película que mejor entendió al personaje. ¿Gana la nostalgia de Tobey, la química de Andrew o el crecimiento de Tom Holland?Además, abrimos el cementerio arácnido de Hollywood: ¿por qué Sam Raimi canceló Spider-Man 4?, ¿qué ocurrió con The Amazing Spider-Man 3?, ¿cuáles eran los planes originales de Sony para Los Seis Siniestros? y ¿cómo pudieron existir versiones de Spider-Man dirigidas por James Cameron o protagonizadas por Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Cruise y Michael J. Fox?Finalmente, debatimos qué necesita hacer Spider-Man: Brand New Day para justificar una nueva etapa: convertir a Tom Holland en un Peter Parker adulto, regresar al héroe callejero, respetar el final de No Way Home y evitar que los cameos, los Avengers y la nostalgia sustituyan una buena historia.Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield o Tom Holland: ¿quién es tu Spider-Man definitivo?

Koos en Huey zijn deze week weer van de partij met een aflevering vol grote bioscoopfilms, Marvel-nieuws en Christopher Nolan. Ze bespreken uitgebreid The Odyssey, inclusief een duidelijk aangekondigd spoilergedeelte, blikken terug op klassiekers als Troy en Cars, en praten je bij over het laatste nieuws rond Blade Runner 2099, Avengers: Doomsday, Clayface, RoboCop, het MCU, X-Men en nog veel meer. The Odyssey Review The Odyssey is eindelijk in de bioscoop en zowel Koos als Huey hebben Christopher Nolans nieuwste epos gezien, ieder in een andere premium filmervaring. Koos zag de film in IMAX Rotterdam, terwijl Huey koos voor de indrukwekkende 70mm-vertoning in Eye Filmmuseum. Eerst bespreken ze spoilervrij of Nolan opnieuw een meesterwerk heeft afgeleverd, waarna een duidelijk aangekondigd spoilergedeelte volgt waarin ze dieper ingaan op het verhaal, de cast, de spectaculaire IMAX-beelden en de vraag of The Odyssey zich kan meten met Nolans allerbeste films. Veel Avengers Doomsday nieuws vanuit Comic Con Marvel trapte tijdens San Diego Comic-Con het gaspedaal flink in met een stortvloed aan nieuws over Avengers: Doomsday en de toekomst van het MCU. Koos en Huey bespreken de nieuwe trailer, de opvallende theorie dat Doctor Doom het in deze versie vooral gemunt heeft op Steve Rogers, het mysterieuze Latverian Witch-kostuum en wat dat kan betekenen voor Scarlet Witch. Daarnaast duiken ze in Kevin Feige's plannen om het MCU na Secret Wars overzichtelijker te maken, de komst van de Mutant Saga en de bevestiging dat ook Miles Morales uiteindelijk zijn live-action debuut gaat maken. Kortom: genoeg om over te speculeren voor Marvel-fans. Masters of the Universe Review Huey dook deze week in de nieuwe Masters of the Universe-film, waarin He-Man eindelijk zijn terugkeer maakt op het witte doek. Is deze langverwachte reboot een waardige moderne vertaling van de geliefde jaren 80-franchise, of blijft het vooral hangen in nostalgie? Huey deelt zijn spoilervrije indrukken over de cast, de actie, Eternia en de manier waarop de film omgaat met het iconische bronmateriaal.Wil je adverteren bij de podcast Nerd Culture óf misschien bij een andere podcast van ILVY Network?

This week, we are sharing an historic conversation among Ohio comic book royalty: Prolific, award-winning creators Brian Michael Bendis and Marc Andreyko. The conversation was moderated by Mike Sangiacomo, one of the Founders of the Siegel and Shuster Society. Recorded live on July 11, 2026, at the Cleveland Public Library as part of the weekend-long Icons Fest held in conjunction with the Icons in Ink: The Jewish Comics Experience exhibit at the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage (on display until August 23, 2026). Growing up together in Northeast Ohio, Bendis and Andreyko first teamed up as friends to create the true crime comic book series Torso, the story of the "Torso Murders" in Cleveland in the 1930s when Eliot Ness was the city's Safety Director. Their wide-ranging conversation included stories about their early collaboration and the on-going challenge of bringing Torso to the screen, their storied careers in the comic book and entertainment industries, and Cleveland Public Library's role in Bendis's decision to go to DC to write for Superman. Brian Michael Bendis was born in Cleveland, took classes at Cleveland Institute of Art, and did work for several Cleveland-area newspapers and magazines in his early career. He has co-created characters like Miles Morales, Jessica Jones, and dozens of others that populate the Marvel, DC and all-new original universes. He is a New York Times bestseller and has won numerous awards for his work, including multiple Eisner Awards and a Peabody for Jessica Jones. Bendis was Executive Producer of the Academy Award winning hit Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Bendis' fabled move to DC Entertainment after nearly two decades at Marvel made international headlines, making his DC debut in the landmark Action Comics 1000. Bendis continues to be a prolific creator, producer, Marc Andreyko grew up in Mentor, graduated from Mentor High School, and co-created the character Kate Spencer/Manhunter for DC and was the original writer on Wonder Woman '77. He has written comics for Dark Horse, DC, IDW, Image, and Marvel. Michael Sangiacomo is a long-time writer of articles on Superman and the comics industry for the Cleveland Plain Dealer. In 2006, he penned an article that urged Cleveland to embrace the creators of Superman, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, and this led to the creation of the Siegel and Shuster Society of which he was a founding board member. Sangiacomo has also taught comic book history at Case Western Reserve University and is a comics writer himself.

Award-winning author and cultural critic Ytasha Womack joins Dave to discuss Spider-Man: Miles Morales, An Exploration, her new book from the Marvel Age of Comics series examining the character's cultural significance. Womack shares how her work on Afrofuturism led her to Miles, why the character's vulnerability resonates far beyond superhero fandom, and the layered symbolism baked into everything from his hoodie to the number 42. The two discuss the deep ties between Brooklyn hip-hop and comics storytelling, why cities shape kids into fluid identity-shifters, and the musical DNA that connects Miles Morales to Miles Davis.https://www.ytashawomack.com/directeditionpodcast.comhttps://www.patreon.com/DavengersDirectEdition

Legendary writer Brian Michael Bendis joins Dave to discuss his return to Marvel, and the upcoming animated series of Powers in development at Netflix. Bendis reflects on co-creating Miles Morales, Jessica Jones, and Riri Williams (Ironheart), the Jewish roots of American comics from Kirby to Eisner, and the early-2000s Marvel bullpen with Joe Quesada. The two discuss the nuances of Bendis' process, the importance of collaboration, and how independent horror films like Obsession are echoing the scrappy independent films that reshaped Hollywood in the 1970s.Check out Brian's work - https://www.jinxworld.com/Follow Brian on IG https://www.instagram.com/brianmbendisDirecteditionpodcast.comhttps://www.patreon.com/davengersdirectedition

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse blew moviegoers away with its originality as well as its meaningful exploration of what it means to be Spider-Man and that it could be anyone behind the mask. The introduction of Miles Morales to the theatre-going public couldn’t have gone better. Still, the supporting characters often stole the spotlight, one of those being Spider-Man Noir, portrayed brilliantly by Nicolas Cage. Cage returns to the Spider-Noir role with his own series, and anticipation was very high. Listen […] The post Spider-Noir: The Perfect Blend of Nicolas Cage and Spider-Man Lore appeared first on Multiverse Of Color.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse changed superhero storytelling forever. Years later, revisiting this movie before the premiere of Spider-Man Noir, it somehow hit even harder. From Miles Morales becoming Spider-Man, to Peter B. Parker's painfully human portrayal of depression, failure, and perseverance, this movie still feels revolutionary. In this episode of Marvel Maniac, we dive into:• Why Spider-Verse was a huge risk in 2018• Peter B. Parker as one of the most relatable Spider-Men ever• Miles Morales and the emotional core of the film• Canon events, incursions, and surprising Multiverse Saga parallels• Spider-Man Noir, Ben Reilly, and why the upcoming series has me excited Plus, I reflect on seeing this movie during a difficult chapter of my life — broke, uncertain, and not realizing this film would stay with me for years. Because maybe Spider-Man matters so much to people not because he's perfect… but because he keeps getting back up. Join the Discord below and send your thoughts to: MarvelManiacPod@gmail.com

What's Up, Danger? Leaps of Faith in IVF, Career, and Life Courtney shares that "What's Up Danger" from Into the Spider-Verse helped her hype herself up to self-administer painful IVF hormone shots, connecting it to Miles Morales' leap-of-faith scene where he forces himself to let go. Juana and Courtney reflect on IVF as a physically and psychologically difficult experience that ultimately led them to two children, and broaden the metaphor to career risk-taking: leaving steady jobs, pursuing fulfillment, and taking scary but necessary next steps, including a recent leap Courtney made that shifted not just money but time. They compare the thrill and terror to Man on Wire and discuss learning to be "intentionally nervous" while rejecting the idea of a perfect path. Courtney cites adopting their dog Harvey—initially wanting to give him away—as another personal leap, and they end by urging listeners to find their own "song" for big decisions.   00:00 Song That Got Me Through 00:33 IVF Shots And Fear 01:14 Leap Of Faith Scene 01:58 Why The Moment Hits 02:58 IVF Trauma Bond 03:27 Career Leaps And Fulfillment 04:21 Terrifying Next Level Move 05:06 Man On A Wire Analogy 05:43 Choosing Nerves On Purpose 06:45 Next Danger Era 07:58 Host Quits His Job 09:16 Harvey The Dog Leap 10:41 Find Your Own Song

This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we interview cartoonist Stephanie Stalvey, diving deep into her graphic memoir Everything in Color. In the conversation, Stalvey opens up about growing up in an evangelical household, unpacking purity culture, and how motherhood reshaped her understanding of faith and identity. It's an honest, vulnerable discussion about turning lived experience into art, and why telling these stories can resonate far beyond one person's life.

Darboe variant) Interview: Stephanie Stalvey, EVERYTHING IN COLOR out 04/28/2026 Your book explores growing up in an evangelical community where love and obedience were deeply intertwined. When you look back now, how do you understand that relationship differently? One of the most striking ideas in the book is the notion that “our bodies belong to the authority figure.” How did unpacking that belief shape the emotional core of this memoir? Everything in Color is deeply personal, especially in how it portrays your relationship with your husband and your child. What was it like sharing drafts with your husband as you were creating the book? Your journey raises big questions about faith, doubt, and identity. Did you find yourself arriving at answers while making the book, or is it more about learning to live with the questions? The book touches on major shared moments like 9/11 and the COVID lockdown. How did anchoring your personal story to these larger events help shape the narrative? There's a powerful shift in the book where love, especially through motherhood, reframes everything as sacred. When did that realization first begin to take hold for you? This is a massive and ambitious work. Was it always envisioned at this scale, and how long did it take you to bring it to life? The title Everything in Color feels like a mission statement for the book. At what point did you know that was the right way to describe this journey? The artwork blends intimacy with emotional weight throughout. How did you approach pairing your visual storytelling with such vulnerable subject matter?
