"Wanda and the Kids"

Episode 42: “Wanda and the Kids”It’s our somewhat delayed coverage of issue 61 and, yeah, getting sick really throws a wrench in things. But! It’s a great issue as Heather and Jeffries spar with Canadian MPs over Alpha Flight’s direction and Wanda and Beta Flight go on a helluva field trip through Ottawa. The kind of issue that makes you wish THIS Mantlo showed up more often…In this episode, Chris:is quite amused by Wanda’s habit of Sassing out at almost every turnreally thinks the Canadian MPs should’ve, maybe, insisted the incredibly deadly superheroes not wear their murdersuits to the hearingand Tom:actually has a pretty good time!
