Bill vs. The MCU: Phase V Part 3 - Echo and Agatha All Along

Hello and welcome to Bill vs the MCU! Each month your hosts⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Pop Break Podcasting Director Alex Marcus⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠ Pop Break Editor in Chief Bill Bodkin⁠⁠⁠⁠ are taking another step into the wider Marvel Multiverse as the MCU dives deeper into their Multiverse Saga. Bill & Alex spent all of 2022 rewatching the first four phases of the MCU, and, in the years since, they have covered all of Netflix’s The Defenders Saga, the first four seasons of ABC’s Agents of SHIELD, and all 14 films in Fox’s X-Verse. Now they are back doing what they do best, making sense of Phase V of the MCU!  First, Bill & Alex speculate about that asterisks in Thunderbolts* and wonder how the film might be able to wrap up the messy peaks and valleys of Phase V.  After that, stick around for an in depth discussion of how Marvel’s Echo fared upon rewatch and whether those twisty turns of Agatha All Along play as well after the big secrets have been revealed.  Come back next month for their grand finale to our 2024 coverage, with our third annual Fiege Awards, and start prepping for their new season, Marvel’s Zombie Era: Part 1, which will feature reviews of 2003’s Hulk (available on VOD), 2003’s Daredevil (available on Disney Plus), and 2005’s Elektra (available on MAX), which kicks off this March!
