Weeks after their clash with the Crimson Surfer, the team has gone their separate ways—each dealing with the aftermath in their own way. They reunite at Nick Fury's high-rise, where they learn that Blazor has been benched, struggling to recover mentally from the battle. Fury introduces a new hero to the team named Token. Soon after, word arrives from J. Fury that Teresa Parker—daughter of Peter Parker—has been kidnapped and taken to a set of shipping yards. As the team investigates, they're ambushed by symbiote dragons in a brutal skirmish. After surviving the onslaught, their search for Teresa continues, only to take a shocking turn when J. Fury becomes possessed by a symbiote. Two more mysterious symbiotes and a red-headed man suddenly appear, setting the stage for an ominous new threat.   Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1628612284256101/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leagueofmelanatedgentlemanpod/   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheLMGPodcast   Hosts: Jordan Mitchell

In Predator Kills the Marvel Universe, you've teased a meditative tone as much as a brutal one. Can you talk about how you approached giving emotional weight to what could easily be a pure spectacle series?2. We know Frank Castle is at a low point in Punisher: Red Band, but you've also said it's a story about who Frank becomes when he has nothing left. What's the most surprising aspect of Frank you think readers will discover in this series?3. We here at AIPT have covered the use of the Punisher symbol via 3rd party swag outside of Disney, we even saw its use in the recent Daredevil show, what's your take on the Punisher logo and its use?4. With both Red Band and Predator Kills launching this year, you're leaning into stories with serious ultraviolence. As a writer, how do you decide when violence is meaningful versus when it's gratuitous?5. You mentioned in the Predator Kills the Marvel Universe press release that some heroes are more “killable” than others. Without giving anything away, was there a particular Marvel character that was the hardest to write a death for—either logistically or emotionally?6. You've done a lot of work balancing character legacy with reinvention—especially with Hellverine and now Red Hulk. How do you decide what to preserve and what to explode when you're writing these kinds of legacy figures?7. Spider-Man and Predator is a wild matchup. Can you tease what their conflict reveals about Peter Parker that we haven't seen before?8. Both Red Hulk and Hellverine feel like "dark mirror" characters—but wildly different in tone and execution. Do you see thematic overlap between them? How do you avoid them becoming just monstrous versions of other heroes?9. You're clearly building (or helping shape) a kind of hyper-violent sublabel within Marvel between Red Band, Predator crossovers, and these monstrous anti-heroes. Would you want to keep expanding this “Percy-verse”? And if so, who would you tap next?10. (Fun one): If Predator could take on one Marvel team in a cooking competition, who would it be—and what's Predator's signature dish?Short novel as a newspaper - subscribe - start November - post-apocalyptic  “The End Times” Station 11 meets our townbadhandbooks.com

In this episode of 2004: A Film Odyssey, Mirandia and Ben suit up to swing through one of the greatest superhero sequels of all time — Spider-Man 2. From Doc Ock's iconic villain arc to Peter Parker's soul-crushing struggle with responsibility, we're diving deep into the emotional (and very meme-able) heart of Sam Raimi's web-slinging masterpiece.   We talk bad pizza delivery timing, train fights that still hold up, and why Tobey Maguire's sad eyes broke a generation. Plus: Ben shares a personal ranking of Spider-Man actors, Mirandia relives her first Spider-crush, and we both get slightly too outraged over phone etiquette. (We know it has nothing to do with the film but…)   Whether you were Team MJ, Team “Give Peter a Break,” or just here for the J. Jonah Jameson quotes, this one's for you.

Together, they track down Hydro-Man and his creators, leading to a final showdown that's both action-packed and emotionally charged. The hosts break down the animation, the choreography, and the stakes in what becomes one of the series' most memorable battles.The discussion also highlights how MJ's clone—despite not being real—chooses to sacrifice herself to stop Hydro-Man. It's a tragic yet noble moment that further deepens the episode's emotional impact.Final Thoughts: Mary Jane Clone Leaves a Lasting MarkIn the closing segment, the hosts reflect on the legacy of the Mary Jane clone storyline.

The entertainment world never stops evolving, and this episode of GeekVisits Entertainment captures the pulse of recent developments across film, video games, and television that are reshaping our favorite media landscapes.Marvel's Fantastic Four dominated headlines with its surprising box office performance—maintaining the top spot with $40 million in its second weekend but experiencing a concerning 66% drop from its opening. This steep decline outpaces Superman's recent 53% drop, raising questions about audience fatigue despite positive reviews. Meanwhile, the James Bond franchise gains serious creative firepower with Denis Villeneuve (Dune, Blade Runner 2049) signing on to direct and Peaky Blinders creator Stephen Knight penning the screenplay for Amazon's first 007 outing since acquiring MGM.On the Spider-Man front, exciting casting updates for "Brand New Day" continue to emerge, with Mark Ruffalo potentially returning as Hulk alongside John Bernthal's Punisher. The film appears to be assembling a street-level focus that returns Peter Parker to his neighborhood roots after the multiverse adventures of "No Way Home." Horror fans received welcome news with John Krasinski announcing A Quiet Place Part Three for summer 2027, continuing the profitable franchise that recently expanded with the well-received prequel "Day One."The gaming landscape saw significant developments with Battlefield 6 finally getting its full reveal, showcasing a return to traditional class systems, 64-player lobbies, and the inclusion of a single-player campaign—all clear responses to player feedback following Battlefield 2042's troubled launch. Less fortunate was Monster Hunter Wilds, which experienced a catastrophic 95% sales decline since its launch quarter amid player complaints about performance issues and thin endgame content. Meanwhile, Bioshock 4's development hit a major roadblock as the game reportedly failed an internal review at 2K Games, particularly regarding narrative elements.Have these stories caught your attention?

Este mes nos sumergimos en la llamada Bronze Age, con un clásico de Spider-Man... ¡La Noche En Que Murió Gwen Stacy! Tenemos una historia dramática, de la mano de Gerry Conway, jovencísimo guionista que tomó las riendas Stan Lee del título arácnido (vamos a ser sinceros, Stan las tenía agarradas bien flojitas), junto con el artista sucesor de Steve Ditko, John Romita padre en tintas y dirección artística, y el también legendario Gil Kane en lápices. La maldad y locura del Green Goblin, la inocencia de Gwen, y el dolor de un Peter Parker que ya no será el mismo. Mirá el video y dejanos tu reseña en YouTube, o escuchá el audio donde sigas nuestro podcast (pero mejor mirá el video, que le pusimos mucho amor, y tiene imágenes y datos extra en pantalla): https://bit.ly/perdidosnerdoteca06 Si te gusta, tiranos un mango por Cafecito desde Argentina o Ko-Fi desde Uruguay y el resto del mundo, los links están en bit.ly/perdidoseter.

The spotlight is on the return of one of Spidey's most relentless and emotionally charged villains: Hydro-Man. In this thrilling breakdown, the hosts explore Hydro-Man's watery revenge tour, Peter and Mary Jane's ill-fated honeymoon, and the shocking return of Black Cat to New York City.Hydro-Man Interrupts a Honeymoon at Niagara FallsThe episode opens with Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson finally getting their much-deserved happily-ever-after…or so they think. As they enjoy their honeymoon at the picturesque Niagara Falls, danger—quite literally—rises from the water. In one of the most shocking twists of the series, Hydro-Man re-emerges and kidnaps MJ, dragging her away in a terrifying and emotional moment that sends Peter into a spiral.The hosts analyze how this dramatic moment raises the stakes, setting the tone for an emotionally charged episode.

These aren't just physical battles; they're emotional ones too.The Return of the Black Cat: An Unexpected AllyAs Peter hits dead ends in his search for MJ, he's surprised by the return of Felicia Hardy, aka Black Cat.

The hosts celebrate her return, commenting on her electric chemistry with Peter, her sharp one-liners, and her willingness to dive into danger despite the emotional minefield surrounding MJ's disappearance.Final Thoughts: Hydro-Man Raises the Emotional StakesIn the final segment, the podcast team emphasizes that Hydro-Man's return isn't just about spectacle—it's about loss, fear, and heartbreak. With MJ missing, Black Cat back in the mix, and Hydro-Man growing more dangerous by the minute, this episode sets the stage for one of Spider-Man: The Animated Series' most compelling two-parters.Tune in to The Superhero Show Show as the hosts explore the beginning of this turbulent arc, where Hydro-Man's obsession, Spider-Man's anguish, and a missing MJ make for one unforgettable ride.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?

Matthew James Thomas opens up in this heartfelt conversation about his journey from a rebellious, bullied teen in the English countryside to finding truth and belonging on stage. Growing up feeling misunderstood, he found safety and purpose in acting, discovering early on that truth-telling through performance was his way of making sense of the world. He shares the emotional weight he carries playing Harry Potter on Broadway, how he navigates the show's intense emotional peaks night after night, and why live theatre never gets old — even after over 135 performances. We also dive into the legacy of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, his love-hate relationship with social media, and why he believes musicals are only great when they get it exactly right. And yes, there's some mutual fan-girling over Severance, a hilarious attempt at explaining Les Misérables, and plenty of insight into what makes live theatre both terrifying and electrifying. Matthew James Thomas is a British actor, director, and songwriter. He originated the title role in the 2013 Broadway revival of Pippin, starred as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, and has appeared in Accused, Summer of Rockets, Britannia High, Billy Elliot, and About a Boy. He currently stars as Harry Potter in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway.

On today's issue of Comicast the guys discuss the positive reception The Fantastic Four: First Steps is garnering so far, Matt Shakman's reasoning for cutting John Malkovich from the film, and the use of practical effects. The guys also deep dive into all of the information that Kevin Feige shared during a sitdown with journalists last Friday including realizing Marvel Studios released too much after Endgame, cutting down the amount of TV shows to 1 per year, pivoting to Doom, the X-Men casting, Spider-Man: Brand New Day being a street level story, Miles Morales' future in the MCU, the status of Blade, diversity in their stories, Secret Wars being a reset not a reboot, and more. Plus, the guys are frustrated with some movie goers... *MC takes keyboard* STOP SHINING YOUR DUMB PHONE LIGHT IN MY EYES!!! Follow Jong and Michael on social media.  Bluesky: @one-punch.bsky.social & @producermike975.bsky.socialThreads: @onepunch______ & @producermike975Instagram: @onepunch______ & @producermike975Rate, review, like, and/or subscribe to Comicast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Castbox, Goodpods, Podcast Addicts, or wherever you get your podcasts!  Feedback, questions, or topic ideas for the show?

We have a big two crossover coming your way today, no, not the Deadpool and Batman one, comics writer Mat Groom (Radiant Black, Inferno Girl Red) returns to the show all the way from Australia to talk about his Tokusatsu inspired DC Comics project Immortal Legend Batman and his Marvel Comics project Spider-Verse vs. Venomverse. I did my best to not dig too deeply into Immortal Legend Batman , one of the most anticipated events of the year for toku fans everywhere, so we don't give away any spoilers so we jump into what, for me, is one of the surprise Marvel books of 2025 in Spider-Verse vs. Venomverse with what I found to be a thoughtful approach to the relationships between Peter Parker and Eddie Brock wrapped in a slobberknocker of a throwdown between the multiverse representatives of the Web Heart and the Hive Mind. We also compare notes on the misconceptions about dangerous animals on our respective continents. It's alway a pleasure having Mat on the show. Mat's website Mat on BlueSky Immortal Legend Batman #1 In shops August 27th From the publisher Humanity broke the barrier between our universe and our universe's shadow. From the void came horri?c apparitions that craved nothing but destruction. But from this terror...a legend was born. A warrior who found a way to access the energy that binds our universe and the shadow universe, transforming him into a cosmic dark knight. This immortal legend was named Batman. He fought to keep us safe but then one day abandoned the war. Though he didn't disappear entirely. Now they say he hunts a rouges gallery of monsters...born from the shadows! Spider-Verse vs. Venomverse #3 In shops July 23rd From the publisher Round two has begun! But who was able to make it? Now that blood has been spilled, the webs are off as Spider-Man and friends face off yet again against Venom and the symbiotes! But not before TWO new champions are added to the roster! Who could these warriors be? And will they add to the slaughter that has now unleashed among the competitors, or will they betray their own team to avoid the conflict? Follow Comic Book Yeti

What do you do when your life feels like a mess you can't clean up? When your mistakes affect not just you—but the people you love? In this powerful message based on Spider-Man: No Way Home, we follow Peter Parker as his world unravels, his identity is exposed, and he's left scrambling to fix the fallout. But what if the real solution isn't in trying harder—but surrendering?Using scenes from the movie and truth from Scripture, Pastor Clint unpacks the redemptive power of grace, the purpose found in pain, and the freedom that comes through surrender. Whether you feel disqualified by your past, overwhelmed by your present, or uncertain about your future—this message is for you.

Jim Shooter talked to the Crawlspace back in 2015 for the podcast. He was the Editor-In-Chief of Marvel Comics from 1978 until 1987. During that that time he saw success with the Secret Wars, giving Spider-Man a new black suit and also marrying off Peter Parker. The interview talks also talks about his memories of working in the Marvel Bullpen including a fun Steve Ditko story. And did you ever wonder about that scene in Secret Wars II where the Beyonder is taught to learn how to use the bathroom from Spider-Man? He discusses that fun moment in the book.  This re-broadcast is from episode #394.  If you would like to see the video of this interview, the link is here.  https://youtu.be/frsTG0licec?si=WBC1b9PP-tu-Cg7O Are you a Crawlspace patreon member?

On this episode of Men of Steel, Case and Jmike are joined by nerd about town Adam Lance Garcia to dive into one of the perenial crossovers of the '70s: Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man! We talk tabloid-sized team-ups, Bronze Age bravado, and what happens when DC and Marvel let their icons share a skyline. Who wins? … I mean… It's Superman. It's obviously Superman. But that said, it's a blast of a conversation, so tune in, True Believers! Check out Adam's Stuff: The Green Lama: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-green-lama/id1593061792 From A Certain Point of View: https://a.co/d/fiY396f   Overview Adam Lance Garcia, an established Star Wars author, shares his early fandom of Superman sparked by the 1976 Christopher Reeve film and its lasting influence on his work. The 1976 Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man marks the first DC/Marvel superhero crossover with a creative team that includes Gerry Conway and Stan Lee, highlighting its historical significance in comic book history. The story features a 92-page length with 36 pages dedicated to prologues to set character dynamics effectively, a considerable feat for comics at that time. Character interactions are facilitated by a news convention setting, notably altering the traditional roles of Superman as he works as a TV anchor at GBS. Lex Luthor emerges as the primary villain, while Doc Ock's role remains secondary, demonstrating the power dynamics within the narrative. Unique plot devices, such as a red sun ray that allows Spider-Man to challenge Superman, illustrate creative solutions for character conflicts. The discussion reveals dated elements in the narrative, particularly an Africa sequence deemed problematic, albeit 'well-intentioned' for its time. Comparisons to superior crossovers like JLA/Avengers emphasize shortcomings in Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man, particularly regarding character integration and narrative depth. Iconic moments in the comic, including Spider-Man's ineffective punches and Peter Parker saving Lois Lane, highlight successful character interactions that resonate with fans. Notes ️ Podcast Introduction & Guest Background (00:00 - 03:10) Case Aiken and Jmike Folson host Men of Steel podcast discussing Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man Adam Lance Garcia joins as guest, established Star Wars author with extensive comic book background Superman was Garcia's first fandom, introduced through 1976 Christopher Reeve film, called it 'Super S' as child Comic Book Historical Context (04:31 - 53:25) Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man (1976) - first DC/Marvel superhero crossover, technically second collaboration after Wizard of Oz project Creative team: Gerry Conway (writer), Ross Andrew (artist), Dick Giordano (inker), Carmine Infantino and Stan Lee (editors) Neal Adams uncredited for redrawing Superman panels, John Romita Sr. redrew Marvel character faces for house style consistency 92-page story with 36 pages of prologues - significant length for 1976 comic Story Structure Analysis (11:49 - 24:04) Three prologues establish characters: Superman vs. giant robot, Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock, villains team up in prison Main story set at news convention in New York, allows natural meeting of characters Superman working as TV anchor at GBS (not Daily Planet reporter) creates awkward dynamic for classic Superman storytelling ️ Character Dynamics & Plot Elements (47:12 - 01:44:08) Lex Luthor dominates as alpha villain, Dr. Octopus relegated to secondary role throughout story Red sun ray device allows Spider-Man to physically fight Superman by weakening him Plot contrivances include fake Superman kidnapping Lois Lane and Mary Jane to force hero conflict ️ Problematic Elements Discussion (01:49:59 - 01:30:03) Africa sequence identified as dated and problematic, though noted as 'well-intentioned' for its era Ms./Miss distinction scene between Mary Jane and Lois Lane reflects 1970s women's liberation discourse Various plot holes and inconsistencies discussed, including gravity fight scene logic Crossover Comparisons (01:05:02 - 01:20:54) JLA/Avengers by Busiek and Perez cited as superior crossover example with lasting consequences Superman/Hulk crossover praised for using iconic character versions rather than current continuity Batman/Captain America crossover noted for better integration of characters' respective worlds Positive Aspects Highlighted (01:06:14 - 01:19:30) Iconic moments: Spider-Man punching ineffectively at Superman, two-page spread of first encounter Peter Parker saving Lois Lane scene appreciated as natural universe mixing J. Jonah Jameson and Morgan Edge drinking scene shows potential for character interactions Historical Significance (53:53 - 01:38:37) Comic serves as important archaeological artifact showing evolution of crossover storytelling Earth Dollar Sign - joking designation for shared universe setting Foundation for future DC/Marvel collaborations despite narrative shortcomings  

As the late seventies live action television series The Amazing Spider-Man gets a web-slingingly hefty mention in the latest Looks Unfamiliar, here's the edition of It's Good, Except It Sucks where myself and Gary Bainbridge took a look at the disco-soundtracked adventures of the decidedly non-comics accurate Peter Parker and a procession of villainous men in suits, which was invariably the talk of the playground the following day - well, when it didn't fall victim to ITV's tendency towards 'a change to the advertised programme'...If you've enjoyed this, you can find more editions of It's Good, Except It Sucks here.

The final episode of June is awesome. Pun fully intended, as Lorenzo aka TeamAwesome418 rounds out this month and joins me while he was on vacation to record this episode! We're talking DC, Marvel, Cosplay, and more in this episode! We kick things off with the DC side of things. Lorenzo talks about how he got into DC through the animated shows and movies. We talked about his love of Superman, along with Batman, and Static Shock. We bounce around between the animated shows and movies, to some of the more recent movies and discuss the upcoming reboot of the DC Cinematic Universe. From there, we swing on over to Marvel. And if you got that swing reference, that's because we have a good conversation about Lorenzo's love of Spider-Man. Peter Parker (and Miles Morales too). Plus, we talk about the animated shows, the pre-MCU movies like Spider-Man and the X-Men franchise, and we don't forget about the MCU movies, and characters like Deadpool. Lorenzo also talks about how he first got into doing Cosplay and some of the characters he's represented, including Static Shock, Spider-Man, and Deadpool, to name a few. He talks about what he's working on for the future in the cosplay space. He also talks about how he's met a number of the actors from the Marvel MCU space, tells a few stories of some special meetings. Plus, we touch on books that Lorenzo has published, available on Amazon!

In aflevering 214 van Nerd Culture duiken we vol in het nerdnieuws. We bespreken F1 the Movie met Brad Pitt, de nieuwe Life of Chuck-verfilming, en het Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball Daima. Verder blikken we terug op Twin Peaks, checken we Kengan Ashura en duiken we in de wereld van Warhammer 40K. Kortom: een bomvolle aflevering met voor ieder wat wils.F1 the Movie ReviewIn deze aflevering van Nerd Culture duiken we in F1, de nieuwste spectaculaire actiefilm van Apple Original Films en de makers van Top Gun: Maverick. Brad Pitt speelt de hoofdrol als Sonny Hayes, een gevallen Formule 1-legende die na jaren afwezigheid wordt verleid tot een comeback. Met regie van Joseph Kosinski en productie van onder andere Lewis Hamilton en Jerry Bruckheimer, belooft dit een visueel racefestijn te worden.We bespreken de film uitgebreid: hoe realistisch zijn de racebeelden, werkt de chemie tussen Pitt en Damson Idris, en wat voegt F1 toe aan het sportfilmgenre? Huey heeft hem gezien, Koos gaat aanstaande dinsdag naar de premiere. Marvel gaat verder met Spider-Man '94Spider-Man: The Animated Series krijgt eindelijk een vervolg! Na 27 jaar pakt Marvel Comics de draad weer op met Spider-Man ‘94, een nieuwe vierdelige comic die vertelt hoe Peter Parker en Mary Jane herenigd worden na hun multiverse-reis met Madame Web. Geschreven door J.M. DeMatteis (ook bekend van de originele serie) en met artwork van Jim Towe, brengt deze comic twee iconische schurken die nooit eerder in de animatieserie verschenen. Spider-Man ‘94 verschijnt op 3 september en is een must voor fans van de klassieke ‘90s-serie én het Spider-Verse.James Gunn voelt geen druk omtrent Superman releaseJames Gunn laat zich niet gek maken door de torenhoge verwachtingen rond Superman. In een interview met Rolling Stone maakt hij duidelijk dat hij geen miljardensucces nastreeft, maar een sterke, oprechte film wil maken die past binnen het grotere DCU-verhaal. Hij vergelijkt het met Iron Man, dat ook niet begon als megahit, maar wel een solide start was. Gunn wil gewoon zijn “stukje van de puzzel” goed doen — en dat is verfrissend in een tijd waarin elke film als redder van een franchise wordt gezien. Superman verschijnt op 11 juli 2025.Will Smith heeft een aantal grote missers op z'n naam staanWill Smith onthult dat hij ooit de hoofdrol in Inception afwees — simpelweg omdat hij het script niet begreep. In een interview vertelt hij openhartig dat Christopher Nolan het project eerst aan hem pitchte, maar dat het concept van alternatieve realiteiten hem destijds niet lag. De rol ging uiteindelijk naar Leonardo DiCaprio, en Inception werd een gigantisch succes met $839 miljoen aan opbrengst en acht Oscar-nominaties. Smith voegt deze blunder toe aan een pijnlijk rijtje afwijzingen, waaronder The Matrix en Django Unchained. Soms is zelfs een Hollywoodster blind voor een meesterwerk in wording.Timestamps00:00:00 Intro00:00:51 F1 the Movie Review 00:18:03 Life of Chuck00:24:40Twin Peaks00:27:09 Friends00:30:13 Kengan Ashura00:37:14 Dragon Ball Daima00:42:08 Secret Level: Warhammer 40K00:46:23 Naked Gun Trailer00:49:12 Brad Pitt's training voor F1 the Movie00:51:05 Blumhouse heeft de rechtern voor SAW definitief binnen00:52:17 Fast & Furious Hollywood Drift00:54:34 Will Smith's track record aan gemiste kansen is impressive01:00:02 I Know What You Did Last Summer Trailer01:02:56 Originele Blade schrijver over de problemen omtrent de reboot01:05:21 Spider-Man ‘94 gaat verder in comic book vorm01:06:59 Fantastic Four krijgt een sequel en Secret Wars is een two-parter01:08:28 Disney+ heeft de Marvel Cinematic Universe de nek omgedraaid01:11:19 James Gunn: Superman gaat niet de end-all be all worden01:14:30 ‘Hele beroemde acteur' schrijft DC Elseworlds script01:16:20 Squid Game Season 3 Trailer

He lives in Los Angeles where he works as a Director, Producer, Screenwriter, Actor, and Distributor through his company Secret Identity Pictures.Spider-Man: Brand New Day is getting tantalizingly close to production ahead of its planned release date of July 31, 2026. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton will helm the upcoming sequel, replacing Jon Watts, who worked on all three of the previous Spider-Man films. Brand New Day is set to kick off Tom Holland's second trilogy of Marvel Cinematic Universe films, opening a new chapter for his iteration of Peter Parker after the landmark events of No Way Home.Though Holland's fourth Spider-Man film is still early in its development, rumors are already spreading about what audiences should expect and who may appear therein. The latest reports for Spider-Man: Brand New Day suggest that the film will feature a packed cast, including at least three major villains from the comics. While fans may shudder at the idea of Brand New Day being an overstuffed mess like The Amazing Spider-Man 2 or Spider-Man 3, I think there is a common denominator between these characters that hints at the upcoming film's intriguing story.Anyone who has been paying attention to the recent rumors and reports about Spider-Man: Brand New Day knows that the film is expected to include an overabundance of Spider-Man villains. While there has been no official confirmation of which antagonists will appear in the movie, various insiders have reported that characters like Scorpion, Tombstone, Mister Negative, Black Cat, and Tarantula could all show up to battle Spider-Man in his next cinematic outing. For many Spider-Man fans, these rumors could evoke bad memories of past franchises.Both the Sam Raimi Trilogy and Marc Webb's Amazing Spider-Man made a similar mistake in their final films, including far too many characters (particularly villains) for a movie. Spider-Man 3 featured a trio of villains, including Venom, New Goblin, and Sandman.Masters of the Universe Gets RebootedAlong with Galitzine as He-Man, the movie also stars Camila Mendes as Teela, Jared Leto as Skeletor, Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn, Idris Elba as Man-At-Arms, Sam C. Wilson as Trap Jaw, Morena Baccarin as the Sorceress, James Purefoy as King Randor, Charlotte Riley as Queen Marlena Glenn, and Sasheer Zamata as Suzie. Travis Knight is directing with a screenplay by Chris Butler.Return to Arlen With the King of the Hill RevivalThe synopsis reads, "After years working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to earn their retirement nest egg, Hank and Peggy Hill return to a changed Arlen, Texas to reconnect with old friends Dale, Boomhauer and Bill. Meanwhile, Bobby is living his dream as a chef in Dallas and enjoying his 20s with his former classmates Connie, Joseph and Chane."The synopsis of the reboot has shared more details about what's been happening with the Hill family since fans last saw them in the original show. Surprisingly, Hank had taken up a job in Saudia Arabia, taking him away from Arlen for many years before his eventual return to his old home. Meanwhile, Bobby is now working as a professional chef, a nod to how the original show explored the character's passion and talent for cooking.How to train dragonThe synopsis reads, "After years working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to earn their retirement nest egg, Hank and Peggy Hill return to a changed Arlen, Texas to reconnect with old friends Dale, Boomhauer and Bill. Meanwhile, Bobby is living his dream as a chef in Dallas and enjoying his 20s with his former classmates Connie, Joseph and Chane."As studios continued to bank on remakes, reboots, and revivals, the decision to turn beloved animations into live-action has proven mostly profitable. How to Train Your Dragon marks the latest example, just weeks after Disney's Lilo & Stitch hit. Per Deadline, How to Train Your Dragon is off to a great start, debuting with an $83.7 million opening week, the highest in the franchise so far.The How to Train Your Dragon animated trilogy was a big commercial hit. Overall, it grossed $1.63 billion worldwide at the box office against a joint budget of $439 million (via 

Send us a textHi everybody and welcome to Attendance Bias. I am your host Brian Weinstein. Get ready for some venue whiplash; after three nights at the largest indoor venue on the tour in Chicago, Phish leaves the second city to arrive in New York. More specifically, July 22 and 23 at Forest Hills Stadium in Forest Hills, Queens; home to The Ramones, Simon and Garfunkel, and Peter Parker. If you've listened to Attendance Bias for any amount of time, you've probably heard me mention that I live in Forest Hills, so today's episode is a homecoming; I don't think I've ever lived closer to any music venue. Before these shows, I've never been able to walk to a Phish concert from my front door. And who would be the best guest in the world to give a preview of this venue and this neighborhood? None other than my wife, Michela Ratto. Michela has been on Attendance Bias once before, and while I mostly give background information and context about this venue that is new to the Phish world, she gives plenty of tips and tricks to help any listeners coming to these two shows, filling everyone in on what to expect.We cover a lot in today's episode; the history of the Forest Hills Tennis Stadium, what the neighborhood is like, the best ways to get there, and of course we give our takes on the controversial headlines about the stadium that crop up ahead of every summer concert season. Ironically, this is the longest episode of this venue preview series, but there are no music clips, since Phish has not only never played the stadium before but they've never played the entire borough of Queens!So join Michela and I to get the inside scoop on the Forest Hills Stadium, our theories as to why Phish chose to play the smallest New York City venue they've played in years, and where to get the best food once you get inside on July 22 and 23rd.

Show notes provided by Joe PelusoOnce again, the back door to Mint Condition swings open and your hosts James and Joe are present to discuss, dissect and disseminate all things pop culture.   In this episode the boys launch into the most recent movie trailers of this summer's two (We hope!) blockbuster films: SUPERMAN and FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS. Geeking out over what they've seen in these two teases (Hey, Ma Kent is in the film! And Galactus is walking cross-town--hopefully in the bicycle lane.), theories, questions, and possibilities abound. Is Luthor using Metamorpho as a walking chemistry set? Is this version of the Silver Surfer Shalla Bal? Will Jimmy Olsen finally have something to do in a Superman movie? And how distracted will Reed be in the F.F. film?   These, and many other pressing questions, fill a fun-filled hour of this most recent "back of the store chat". And stick around for our recommendations (Ironheart, Dexter: Resurrection, some DC Absolute talk, Space Ghost and Speed Racer, and Ultimate Spider-Man.) And in a rare moment, that can only be described as a "respectful" mini rant, James and Joe question Marvel's editorial obstinacy of keeping Peter Parker in a perpetual lifetime holding pattern.   It promises to be a summer of pop culture fun. And it starts here with you, the MInt faithful. ENJOY!

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

The Superhero Show Show #583STAS Season 4 Finale and The Prowler's IntroductionThe Prowler Makes His Animated DebutOn this week's The Superhero Show Show, the hosts turn their spotlight to Season 4, Episode 11 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, which introduces a brand-new character to the series: The Prowler. This episode marks a fresh shift in tone, blending social justice themes, redemption arcs, and classic superhero action. The team dives into how this fan-favorite antihero is adapted for Saturday morning television, and whether the episode successfully balances its heavier themes with the high-energy Spider-Man formula.Who Is The Prowler?The hosts start by breaking down the origin story of The Prowler, a.k.a. Hobie Brown, a young inventor turned reluctant criminal who dons a high-tech suit to seek justice his own way. The episode paints Hobie as a victim of circumstance, manipulated by crime boss Richard Fisk into doing dirty work under the illusion of control and upward mobility.The podcast praises the show for introducing The Prowler as a layered and sympathetic character, rather than just a one-note villain. They compare his debut to other redemption-focused characters in the series, highlighting how his motivations and eventual turn toward heroism help him stand out.Power, Control, and Second ChancesOne of the episode's central themes is the struggle for agency. Hobie, disillusioned by a system that continually fails him, turns to technology and crime as a means of reclaiming power. However, once Spider-Man intervenes, a different path begins to open. The hosts commend the show for portraying Spider-Man as both a physical adversary and a moral compass, guiding The Prowler toward redemption.They also discuss how this mirrors Peter Parker's own journey. Both characters come from difficult backgrounds, but their decisions define who they become. The hosts love that this episode serves as a mirror for Peter—offering a “what-if” scenario of how differently things could have gone.Animation Highlights and Series ContextThe animation team also gets a nod from the hosts this week. They note that The Prowler's suit design and acrobatic fight choreography add a visual freshness to the episode. From high-rise rooftop battles to underground lairs, the episode keeps its energy up without losing emotional weight.Contextually, the episode sits between several personal milestones for Peter—his recent engagement to Mary Jane and the aftermath of revealing his identity. The hosts admire how the show can juggle such significant story beats while still making space to introduce compelling new characters.A Hero in the MakingIn the end, Hobie Brown walks away not as a villain, but as a young man given a second chance. The hosts speculate on what could've been if Spider-Man: The Animated Series had continued into another season—would we have seen The Prowler return as an ally? As a standalone episode, it's one of the rare times the series tells a complete origin and resolution in just 22 minutes, and the team finds that both refreshing and satisfying.Final Thoughts on The ProwlerThis episode of The Superhero Show Show is a celebration of strong character work, stylish animation, and the introduction of The Prowler, a character with surprising depth and long-lasting appeal. Whether you're a longtime fan of Hobie Brown or discovering him for the first time, this installment delivers both superhero spectacle and sincere storytelling. Tune in to hear why The Prowler...

The Superhero Show Show #582Spider-Man Reveals His Real IdentityThe Superhero Show Show: “The Lizard King” Reveals Spider-Man's Real Identity and a Life-Changing ProposalThis week on The Superhero Show Show, the hosts cover one of the most emotional and game-changing episodes of Spider-Man: The Animated Series—Season 4, Episode 10, “The Lizard King.” Not only does Peter battle a monstrous uprising underground, but he also takes a massive personal step forward. In a move that fans have waited seasons for, Peter finally reveals Spider-Man's real identity to Mary Jane Watson. And that's just the beginning.A Reptilian Uprising Meets Emotional TurmoilThe episode begins with the return of Dr. Curt Connors, once again transformed into the Lizard. This time, he's not alone. He's leading a community of mutated lizard people, threatening the balance between the surface world and the underground. Peter dives into the conflict, knowing that stopping Curt won't just be a physical challenge—it will be emotional as well.Curt, slipping between his human and reptilian sides, still remembers Peter's secret. The possibility of Connors exposing Spider-Man's real identity creates extra pressure. The hosts highlight how this tension—both internal and external—drives the episode forward.A Secret Revealed and a Ring OfferedMidway through the episode, the show takes a surprising turn. Peter makes a bold decision and reveals his identity to Mary Jane. Instead of reacting with fear or anger, she listens. She accepts him—not just as Spider-Man, but as Peter Parker. According to the podcast crew, this scene is one of the most heartfelt and honest in the series.Then comes the proposal. After years of hiding the truth, Peter asks Mary Jane to marry him. The hosts love how the moment balances superhero stakes with personal vulnerability. Mary Jane says yes, adding a joyful milestone to an already powerful episode.Family Support and Genuine EmotionThe celebration continues as Peter and Mary Jane share their engagement with Aunt May and Aunt Anna. May responds with joy and pride, thrilled to see Peter growing into a loving, responsible man. Meanwhile, Anna expresses concern but ultimately supports her niece's choice. The contrast between the two aunts adds realism and depth to the scene.The hosts praise this balance of superhero drama and family dynamics. It's rare for animated shows to give this much emotional weight to personal relationships. Yet this episode does it flawlessly.More Than Just a Hero“The Lizard King” doesn't just deepen Spider-Man's rogues' gallery. It pushes Peter into a new chapter of his life. By revealing Spider-Man's real identity and proposing to Mary Jane, he stops hiding from the people he loves most.This week's episode of The Superhero Show Show celebrates that growth. Whether you're tuning in for the monster battles or the relationship milestones, you'll find plenty to enjoy. Join the hosts as they break down how this episode changes everything—not just for Spider-Man, but for Peter Parker as well.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?
