The Fantastic Four 5

from Coffee and Deathsticks · host Kevin Romani

Marvel's first family comes home as The Fantastic Four make their Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. This is the fifth iteration of a Fantastic Four movie and the 37th film released by Marvel Studios. That number is not a reference to Clerks, though Dante would probably feel the same disgust towards Marvel as he did his girlfriend when he learned about her and the number 37. There have actually been 37 films released as part of the MCU in just 17 years, which feels like the right moment for the comic OGs to check-in for the first time. Because of this staggering number, Danny and Kevin do everything they can to avoid talking about the film. There was no Mike Francesa talk this week, but the duo do question whether or not Shrek is more culturally relevant than The Avengers, why the MCU is losing its imprint on the industry, and if Franklin Richards was conceived immaculately.
