After saving the Earth from the Skrulls' Secret Invasion, Thunderbolts director (and Green Goblin) Norman Osborn is headed for bigger and better things … but not before he turns the Thunderbolts against each other on his way out the door! Then, it's high-flying mayhem aboard Air Force One as we meet an all-new T-Bolts squad led by Black Widow (no, not that one – the other one) and Osborn protects President Not Barack Obama from … the Green Goblin??? Will Songbird survive against the combined might of Moonstone, Venom and Bullseye? And will this new black-ops hit squad succeed against that Wild Covert Action Team known as … The Comics Canon?

Bored of winning the golf championships all the time? Is life with your beautiful fiancé just not quite giving you the thrills you need? In that case, why not put on a black mask, stick a big X on your belt and then head out to fight international criminals? That's just what Mister X did, and he's never been happier, whether he's chucking henchmen out of windows or blowing up phone boxes.Yes, we're back with another episode in our Fumetti season, and this is one of the lesser-known films based on a relatively unsuccessful comic. As usual with this season, there's no decent home video release to speak of, but you can find a poor quality copy on YouTube. It's good fun though, and gives Rod and Adrian plenty to discuss.We are now coming towards the end of our fumetti season. If you want to do some background reading on the most popular Italian comics of the sixties, there's a great resource here on Comic Vine.We would love to hear from you if you have any favourite Italian comic or masked hero/ villain-based films, or if you have used your fiancé as a honeytrap to catch a sleazy mafia boss.

This week on Corn Nation Overreaction Revisited, Greg and Hoss are joined by Corn Nation's very own Nate McHugh, by special request from Mister X's and O's himself. The trio discuss the 2023 Nebraska-Iowa game, which the Hawkeyes won 13-10 with a walk-off field goal from the backup kicker. Nate went the extra mile and re-watched the game via the Big Ten in 60 on YouTube, so his rage was fresh, which is the opposite we tried to achieve with this series. Why is it that our offense couldn't get going? Was it simply that they were gassed? Or were there deeper underlying reasons? In this war of attrition, one team had to wind up on the short end of the stick, and for the seventh time in eight years, that team was Nebraska. BUT...there's a lot of optimism from this crew that different days are ahead. Listen/watch for all the good times (and the bad). And GBR!
