What this episode covers

The Marvel Universe begins here with the legendary Fantastic Four #1! Robb and Bryan go panel-by-panel through the issue that started it all and nerd out about what still feels fresh after nearly 60 years, what doesn't hold up as well, and whether or not there's a more generic character name than The Thing (there isn't).

Distinct summary based on available episode metadata or transcript content.
