The Come Up Podcast

The impossible comic book question: if Batman or Spider-Man had to be completely erased — no comics, no movies, no cultural influence — who would you choose? Two lifelong Batman fans try to answer honestly and break down every angle: whose villains matter more, which movies hold up, Dark Knight vs Spider-Man 2, why Gotham works as a character and Queens doesn't, Peter Parker vs Bruce Wayne, the Sony problem, the No Way Home cheat code, Batman actors vs Spider-Man actors (yes, we forgot Christian Bale), and which character's absence would change their universe more. This one got personal.

We broke down every single one — and bro, the Russos are telling us something.1:24:20 — Ancient One warns Hulk that removing Infinity Stones fractures time. 1:17:20 — Loki escapes with the Tesseract, creating the branch that leads to the TVA and multiverse chaos. 1:04:20 — The Avengers decide to do the time heist. This is the moment they messed up. 1:11:20 — Thor and Rocket in Asgard, moving through events they shouldn't touch.Every timestamp points back to Endgame.

Steve didn't listen. Civil War all over again, except now it's Victor Von Doom holding the receipts.Plus: the theory that Doom is targeting Avengers' children. Steve's kid. Thor and Love. Franklin Richards. And we break down Sadie Sink's casting — Rachel Summers or Jean Grey? You don't cast Stranger Things' breakout star for a side character. She's gotta be Jean.The multiverse saga had no structure. This feels like the MCU is back. Subscribe — we're covering Doomsday all year.
