Continuing our focus on the “Almost Famous” members of the X-Men, we wrap up the members who joined in the 80s with the Disco Queen known as Dazzler, and the Indigenous American inventor who goes by Forge. But, before that, an important announ
For the sixth anniversary of Welcome to Geektown, Kurt continues looking at the history of the New Warriors. However, this is the only incarnation of the team that does not have his favorite superhero, Speedball, as a member. Who are these new
Our fourth in a recurring series on the less famous members of the X-Men roster, we reach the 80s, with a alternate future child, a mullet-wearing alien clone, and a body swapped telepathic ninja. Yes, the X-Men are weird. Take a listen to fi
Inspired by the recent Sony movie (which, while not good, is fun in its own way), we go through the comic book counterparts of the four lead women to see how they are all interconnected in multiple ways throughout their respective histories.
In light of the Big Game that aired the day of this episode’s release, I found it only right to discuss heroes who were active in the sport at one time or another in their life. From Superman to SuperPro, football has been a part of many comic
Finally finishing up the Green Lantern “Replacements” episodes with the New 52 recruits of Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz. But, before we get to those, one last bit of business from the Loki Season 2 Deep Dive, thanks to a listener comment.
After a bit of a hiatus, we continue the discussion of Green Lantern “Replacements,” getting into the 90s with one of the longest running replacements, Kyle Rayner. (If you haven’t listened already, I suggest checking Episode 71 for discussion
Just a small announcement regarding me taking a little time off from the show.
Loki Season 2 comes to a climax as one of the most complex and well-performed characters gets a very fitting ending (it appears), and my guest Anne and I get into every detail along the way, as we discuss the writing, direction, costuming, and
It’s the penultimate episode of Loki Season 2, and Anne and I have quite a bit to discuss, from the gorgeous camerawork to the rise of the God of Stories. Take a listen, and let us know what you think!
Continuing our Deep Dive on the second season of Loki, we’ve reached Episode 4. But with that ending, is it the last episode? No, but we’ll discuss our theories on what happens this episode, see where theories went right or wrong from past epi
The Deep Dive of Season 2 of Loki continues with Guest Anne Valliant. There is much costume discussion, as well as World’s Fair history, as we look at the episode that takes place almost entirely in the year that it’s named after…1893.
Continuing our Deep Dive of Season 2 of Loki. Guest Anne Valliant returns from Season 1 to join me for this episode as we discuss the little easter eggs, the production design, the costumes, and of course, the plot and character development. T
We’re starting a new Deep Dive, but it’s our first continuation, as we discuss Season 2 of Loki. Guest Dennis Riddle joins me for this episode as we discuss the new characters, the new situations, and of course, any comic book connections. Pl
Continuing the Green Lantern “Replacements” from last episode, we move on to the one that actually replaced Hal first, despite appearing after Guy Gardner. The Lantern so well loved, he was actually chosen over Hal for the Justice League carto
Continuing our ongoing “Replacements” feature, this is the first part of the Green Lantern franchise. Even with only covering those that directly replaced Hal Jordan, we’re still going to need multiple shows to discuss all the successors to th
Thanks to listener feedback, we’re looking at another group of heroes with a specific mental disorder. This time it’s DID (or Disassociative Identity Disorder). Moon Knight, Legion, Crazy Jane, and others are members of this unique club discus
Based on his portrayal in the recent movie bearing his name, a listener is curious about The Flash ever having been shown on the autism spectrum before this, as well as the presence of other neurodivergent characters in the superhero realm, whi

It’s been hinted at and this week we finally know for sure what the “Harvest” is and why it’s so important. Once again, Dag joins me for this Deep Dive into Secret Invasion. Find out who our favorite new MCU character is among other things in
From last week’s “Betrayed,” to this week’s “Beloved,” we’ve got some important conversations, and one giant action scene. Dag and I discuss all the details of this episode, including the Skrull reveal (that was really done last episode), and
This week’s episode of Secret Invasion is titled “Betrayed,” and it makes sense, as there are plenty of people feeling that way. Fortunately, Dag didn’t betray me, and he showed up to bring his thoughts on the show. Together, he and I discuss
Secrets are starting to be revealed in this Secret Invasion, especially right at the end of this episode. Special guest Dag (aka TrekNexus) and I discuss our thoughts, theories, and general opinions on the episode titled “Promises.”
Who Can You Trust? Find out (or at least theorize) in this first episode of our Deep Dive into the Secret Invasion show on Disney+. Is Nick Fury really as washed up as everyone says he is, or is that just another one of his spy tricks? Special
Finishing up our look at a couple of unusual vehicles driven by famous superheroes, we land over at DC Comics, where the Supermobile is under the magnifying glass. How does it do all the things it can do? Why was it brought into the comics in
