The M6P: Marvel 616 Politics

Remember your favorite comic runs? The ones that are really special to you-that you think you will go back to over and over again? Well, today we prove that those really special ones can sit on the shelf for 15 years after you read it the first time and thought, "wow, that was really amazing. I'm going to read that again next week as well!" I mean, nothing is wrong with them, but they are a victim of their own success. That Marvel company just keeps cranking out the hits! You can really only read so much over your lifetime. And, when you think about it, it's ironic. Why? Why is it ironic, you ask? Because if they keep putting out good ones, then you never have time to read them again. BUT!!! If they start putting out bad ones, you can finally relax and start reading the good stuff. Man, I can't wait for the bad stuff to come out. You know, so I can read the good stuff again. (Okay, I need to stop you here.) Why? What's up? (You can read whatever you want. You don't have to read the "now" good stuff. You can just read the "then" good stuff.) No, you don't understand. I HAVE TO KEEP UP! (No, no, no. Listen, you could be just like me. I gave up a LONG time ago, my friend. Do you think I am waiting every Monday to check Marvel.com and see what is coming out this Wednesday? Do you think I'm just begging to a good Spider-Man issue to come out? Heck, no, man! That's not how I am-anymore.) Wow! Wow, man. Really. I can't imagine that. So you mean to tell me that you haven't look at the webpage or your app or called your comic shop to find out what is coming out this week? I wish I had that freedom and that peace of mind. You know what? You're my hero. I think I'm going to do that. So I'm not going to log in on Monday morning to Marvel.com and see what is coming out this week. I'm better than that. I am going to go back to my bookshelf and see what I have right here and now to settle in next to the fireplace and read what I have here. (So...so, I really got through to you?) Yeah, bro. I'm a changed man. I have self-control and self-discipline. I mean, that's what you do right? You don't check first thing on Monday morning, right? (Not since I found out they post it on Sunday nights now.) Now seems like a good time to talk about our sponsors. We are sponsored by Community Retail Partnership.

I can't believe there is another episode out so soon. Who are these two guys? (Well, they are certainly not Forge and Storm!) What makes you say that? (They pretend to be Forge and Storm in the episode. Didn't you listen?) No, I don't think that technically they are pretending to be Forge and Storm. They are interviewing as IF they were Forge and Storm. (But then they throw Mystique in there too. It's just unacceptable!) I don't understand why you're so angry. (It's because they are lying to us. They are pretending to be people that they are not. It's not a good look. It's "tone deaf".) What? Why? (Because these two old men are pretending to be people that they simply cannot speak for.) Oh...um...we don't like to get political on this show. (ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?! Didn't this show used to be call MARVEL 616 POLITICS?!?!) Well, yeah, but we stay away from that now. Too hot to handle, if you know what I mean. (Oh, because of the politics?) No, because Marvel is pretty litigious. OH! Sorry! That could be libel. I meant to say, "Marbles can be lentiginous." (I don't know what you are talking about. All I'm saying is that neither of these two old men can control the weather or can morph into any shape or can design technology from thought. How could you possibly speak for them!!!) Oh...OH! I thought...sorry. Nevermind. Roll Tape! Now seems like a good time to talk about our sponsors. We are sponsored by Community Retail Partnership.

Let's play this one straight, okay? Look, we want to do this right. We want to record, we want to be there for our listeners, and we want to be there for each other. We are going to be hitting the hard issues in life. (Like hair.) ...like...hair? (Yeah, hair. I mean, I've got great hair, and you've got great hair, and that's something we have in common with this movie.) I don't understand what you are talking about. We are supposed to be serious podcasters now. (I am serious. If you watch this movie as closely as I did, you can really see how William Hurt's hair changes when he Rulks Out.) There is so much wrong with what you just said; I don't know where to start. (Just you watch it again, you'll see that there is something different about Ross, Hurt, and Rulk. I'm pretty sure it's the hair.) You're ridiculous. I thought this time was going to be different. Now seems like a good time to talk about our sponsors.

Alright, this go round we need to watch our P's and Q's as we welcome Beau DeMayo onto the show! Darrin Michael guest hosts with our regulars, Jarid and Andy, for a very special episode that doubles as a YouTube segment of The M6P. Yes! You heard that right! This episode is in audio AND video format--you lucky dogs, you! Check out our reactions to the bombs dropped by Beau by going to YouTube and searching for The M6P! Beau dives deep into the themes, tones, and story beats of X-Men '97! Is it about Tolerance? Is it about Politics? Is it about Empathy? Is it about being a black man growing up in a white family? Maybe it's about the spectrum of the Xavier's dream that we all have and where we fall on that dangerous scale! And, of course, we drop some major Marvel trivia on Beau to see how he fares against the Marvel Giants of our time! (Bro...could you make that summary paragraph any more boring? I mean, are you trying to put people to sleep when this is probably the best episode we've ever done?) No...I just...I just...I'm a little self-conscious. (What!? Why?) I don't want people to think that we need other hosts involved to make our podcast better. (So you're downplaying this mindblowing interview? That makes no sense! Here, I'll do it! Give me the keyboard!) No, stop! (Let go!) Give it back!!!! (Why are you being so intolerant?! Just let me do my thing!) Quit it bro! (Look, we both want the same thing!) But you are using violence!

From time to time, we all start to wonder if little old "me" matters. We all think that everything that we've done in our life that used to be so defining...so meaningful...is losing its shimmer and shine. It may be true. Maybe your universe really is ending because someone who is just plain better than you has decided to move on out of your universe. Not to get too personal here, but we've all had that person that suddenly realized they could be a better hero than us, so they up and left. That's right. They left. They left without saying goodbye or shaking your hand or writing a note or mowing the yard or scrubbing the floor or fixing the chain they broke or polishing the bars of the cell or even returning the handcuffs they outright stole. Life can just be so cruel. But you DO matter. Your universe does matter. Everything that all those people poured into you wasn't just a waste of time or money or space in the basement where you keep your single issues that you can never really even see the cover or will never be graded by CGC and probably will never even read again. It does mean something, Fox. (Why'd you just call me 'Fox'?) Oh, um...I don't know. It just seemed right. I think I let my mind wander a bit. Anyway.

I tell you, these guys are reusing ideas like crazy. Sure Krakoa was a great and refreshing era (if you like dying and coming back to life and the X-Men finally not caring what the world thinks about them and taking their rightful place among the gods, ruling with an iron fist and defeating the crazy machines that are simply made to protect humanity). But this 'up from the ashes' era-thingy? I mean could you get any more unoriginal? I mean we have Cyclops and Hope and Namor and Emma and Danger and Magik and the same people being on the most powerful team that is going to save the X-Men from extinction. AND they are bringing back the old writers and artists to do this again? Man, I tell you...just running out of ideas. San Francisco and Utopia and Sinister and that Celestial that we didn't know what it was doing for so long. No, I know what you are thinking--not THAT Celestial. I'm pretty sure they are ignoring that one for the rest of time. It just seems like they are retreading the same things over and over again. Doesn't it feel that way to you too? (Dude, this is a retro-review show.) What do you mean? You read and reviewed X-Men #1.) Well, of course they are going to re-number them. Their not stupid. They want to sell as many as they can, man!! (No, you're not getting it. The 'Uncanny' X-Men #1 that we read and reviewed is from 2012.) Oh!!...I...um...I knew that. I just mean, the...uh...the new stuff is SO similar to the old stuff that we reviewed the old stuff...and well....(let's just get this over with.)

Now, I'm not hip with the kids and I don't know all of these spider-people or their timelines or their purpose or their gender identity or if they prefer Fruit Loops or Captain Crunch, but...BUT, I DO know that we are nowhere near the end of the Spider-verse craziness that Marvel loves to throw our way. Sure it's overplayed and done to death and to the point that no one can keep track of any of it. Sure. But that doesn't mean that there isn't money to be made from this horse! They aren't beating it yet, but they are running behind it with one of those q-tip American Gladiator things, yelling and screaming for the horse to die of the most horrific heart attack known to horse-kind!!! Yes, you read that right! I am essentially accusing our beloved Marvel of writing stories just because they think they can make money off of them. How nuts is that!?! I mean, what's next? The death of Wolverine...again? Now seems like a good time to talk about our sponsors. We are sponsored by Community Retail Partnership. Sign up to get discounts on all your Office Depot supplies.

The bad news is that we never find the microphones for the show. The good news is that we bought BRAND NEW MICS!! That's right! Brand SPANKING new mics. Hmm...I thought there would be more applause than that. But no worries! We got what you want. You want to know about comics? We got that. You want to know about the new number 1 issues? We got that. You want to know how old we feel? We got that. You want to know what is the best length of men's hair? We got that. You want to know about our dietary restrictions and favorite singers and why we hate ice cream...and flying...and water? We got that! Just like Wolverine's semi-working healing factor, we are back up and at you with a new episode that will take your monkey cheeks, turn them upside down, and blow your socks off. (What...?) You heard me! Stay tuned for our next riveting adventure of the cataclysmic duo from Dayton...area! Drop those pretenses and gird up your loins! We are going big and taking charge and smashing names!

It's taken us a while to find the laptops, the microphones--I don't think we actually found those--find the duct tape and the glitter and the cosplay outfits with the black and the white and the booty flaps that SWORD has...but somehow, we did it! That's right. A brand-spankin'-new episode coming right at your earholes for the first time in over a year! You could even call it our annual show!!! But please don't call it that. It makes us sad in our hearts to think that it took over a year to make up from the fight we had last time while writing the episode synopsis. (Check out the episode synopsis from our October 3rd 2022 show! That'll tell you right there why it's taken so long to get back in the saddle! And what a saddle it is! This episode we fly further, and higher, and faster, and holding hands, and switching places, with light, and glitter, and French braids, and black girl magic to really get to the heart of the cinematic masterpiece that is "The Marvels." Now, I know what you are thinking...could those guys ever do justice to such a tremendous piece of art and culture and history? Let me assure you, we are actually cultured now. We took the last 12 to 14 months with our pinkies raised and our noses stuck firmly in the upward direction. We CAN evaluate this cinematic adventure. And boy, do we!!

There comes a time in everyone's life where they have to reassess and figure out if it is really worth it to keep going or to hang it up. For Marvel, it was after Endgame. For The M6P, that time is now. Yes, we need to be circumspect and think about how different our lives are from when we started this podcast 13 years ago. We need to consider the time commitment and the effort that it takes to set aside the other parts of our lives to deliver a quality--(Well, I mean, the audio on this one is pretty terrible.) I mean quality as far as discussion and insight--(Are you kidding me? Are you really going to claim that the ramblings of a nearly 40 year old mad man living in the jungles of West Africa counts as intelligent insight and commentary on where the MCU stands right now?) Well, yeah, I mean...it's been a while, but we give the fans what they want. (And what is that?) At this point, it may just really be an episode. To hear us talk again after a yearlong hiatus. (So let me get this straight. You think that at this point you can just phone it in--literally--and the fans will all adore you because they are somehow clamoring for just anything at all that even slightly resembles what the show was like in its hay day?) I mean...I wouldn't say "clamoring." (You're a bum.) How dare you! I come in here every single time to write an episode synopsis and every single time you interrupt me and give me a hard time. You hired me for goodness sake! (That was my FIRST mistake!) Well, that's it! I'm leaving! I was about to say that the show was going to reevaluate and decide that it was NOT time to hang it up. I was going to do this big surprise that the hosts still love each other and love the fans and love Marvel and are going to do this until they just keel over and die. But no! You had to go and ruin it! Oh don't give me that look! It IS time to reevaluate. That's right! I swear on the grave of the last major character that died in that big crossover event that I will NEVER...WRITE for you...AGAIN!!! (Hmm...he just...he just left.

Sometimes you just run out of things to say. Well...now is NOT one of those times. (Oh, no.) That's right, we are back with a vengeance! (Please don't.) And we are all dressed to kill, going to the Hellfire Gala. (You know that's just for dignitaries and important people, right?) Dude, we are like the press. Who is going to give the red carpet commentary on the hideous genderific outfits, if not us? (You didn't just say that.) What? We are out there, man! We are living this gala event with all the costume designs, crazy wardrobe changes, and most importantly the psychically linked concert and fireworks. We are going to Mars, man!!! (I don't think you are going anywhere. What are you wearing?) This? Don't tell me you don't know what this is. (It looks like you took old tire rubber and glued it to a hobo clown llama, but that can't be--) Right? You are correct, good sir! This llama is a mutant llama that spits rainbows when angry and throws up diamond fireworks and stick cellos when feeling frisky. (I'm going back to bed.) Fine. Fine!! But just know that you are going to be missing the party of the century. I'm jacked, bro! I'm jacked to the A's!!!! ... ... Come on, Lemuel. Let's go spit some rainbows for these new X-folks.

Has it really come to this? I gotta say, I wasn't ever expecting this type of conundrum during my lifetime. Growing up, I always heard that we have to be kind to Mother Nature and that we really should make sure that we don't hurt the environment. Now I know the environment is more than plants, but it's the deer and the fungus and the sun and the breeze as well. Somebody once told me that it's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us; it binds the galaxy together even...not sure if that's true...but that's besides the point. But now things have gotten so mixed up that I have to figure out if I have to let the planet die or the plants die?!? I thought they were on the same team!!! Keep the animals safe, keep the water safe, keep the plants safe...but don't blow up the Earth?!? 2020 has thrown us some curve balls, but COME ON!!! I gotta say, if I have to choose between crispin' up the planet with the supernova or taking out the salad bar at Shoney's, you know where my allegiance lies! I'm suiting up and throwing on my Make Salad Great Again hat and chomping down on some veggies, bro! (I really don't think now's the time to politicize this issue.) What are you talking about? (The Trump reference you just made about the hat.) Oh this thing? I got this thing from a chick I used to know at Subway when I was in high school. I asked for her phone number and never called her.

Are you one of those people with those big Dr. Suess hats sitting on mountains of toilet paper rolls with a carnival-themed plastic scepter in your hand--just laughing and laughing and laughing until you get the hiccups?

Now is the season to start looking to the future. However...it seems like 80 years in the future is a bit much. Am I right? (Well, see, it's figurative. Like it's 80 years in the future and it's been 80 years since the first Marvel comics came out...so...) Exactly! I'm glad you know what I'm talking about. I resolve to never let my social score drop more than 238 points in a single act of violence. (...I don't think we are on the same page. What exactly are you doing?) I'm making my New Year's Resolution. I resolve to never let a magical wizard that's a girl take up residence in my head for all the rest of my years. (I'm seriously trying to bite my tongue, but I can't--not anymore. Do you think that Marvel's 2099 current storyline is--like--the company's New Year's Resolutions or something?) That's what I was told, yes. (By whom?) What? (Who told you that?) OH! I that you said "Buy Broom." (No, no. "By whom?") I see...it's like a metaphor. (Yeah, it is...but who told you that it was a New Year's Resolution?) I hereby solemnly swear that I resolve to "Buy Broom" for the next 80 years. I will continue to clean up my life. I will not let the dust and dirt of my kitchen floors sully the soul of my feet. (Holy cow....forget it.) Now seems like a good time to talk about our sponsors. We are sponsored by DCBService.com.

It's been a while. (Yes, it has.) So...You forgive me? (Nothing to forgive, my friend.) Well, good....because I'm moving to Africa. (WHAT?!?!?!) Yes, there's a missionary hospital over in a country called Togo. I'm going over there to be a teacher in a one-room school house. (Wait, stop. Are you serious?) Yeah, man. (Why didn't you tell me?!?! Did you think I'd be mad?) No, no!! Nothing like that. I was afraid you would want to come with me. (WHAT!!!) No offense, but I'm just so tired of you outshining me all the time. I mean, you know way more about comics and the X-Men than I do. (True.) And you are just so good looking. (Also true.) And you just smell soooo good. (Ummm....) And your hair is relly soft. (Okay, okay...you can stop.) And your backrubs are amazing. At least I assume they are with those strong hands. (STOP!!

I'll admit, it seems like we never quite agree on things. There is always that little bit of difference when it comes to...well, everything. This one guy loves mindless action, and that other dude loves mind-numbing dialog. Why can't we just get along and all like the exact same thing? (Wouldn't that be boring though?) You would think, but just last week Sam Gillespie from Campus Security and I agreed on every single thing that we were talking about. (Campus Security...who in the world is Sam Gillespie?) Oh, well it's not the shortest story, but basically I found out that some colleges and universities have their own actual police force while others are just "security." (Uhhh, whatever...what were you guys discussing that you agreed on?) All sorts of things! We are like twinsies!!! He told me that it's actually illegal to roam around at night knocking on windows with nothing but a bright orange ski mask and long-john underwear. Naturally, I agreed with him. I mean, who would think it's okay, 'maright? (Wait...were you doing that?) That's besides the point, man! You are missing the big picture. (I don't think I am, I'm tryin--) My point is that it DEFINITELY was NOT boring!! Now seems like a good time to talk about our sponsors. We are sponsored by DCBService.com.

Maybe you were just cranky. Maybe you didn't get enough sleep. (I don't know, man. I just didn't like it.) I know, I know. But really that's no reason for you to take it out on me. So we didn't both like the series. What's the big deal? We can still be friends. It's not like we haven't disagreed before. (Yeah, but this time you made me sound almost unreasonable. Like I was an idiot for not liking this book.) There, there. We all go through phases where we fly off the handle at tiny, insignificant little things that really don't mean anything. No one blames you for being irrational from time to time. (See?!?! Just there! You make me seem like I'M the one that is ridiculous.) Now, just calm down. No one said you were being ridiculous...again. (What was that?) Nothing. You know...I hate to say it, but we just recorded the show and issue 6 comes out the next day. (I'LL KILL YOU!!!!!)

There's been a lot of talk about this movie called "Endgame." I've heard it's a big deal, but I'm not sure why exactly. Why in the world would Marvel stop making movies? I mean, aren't they making money? Why give up now? What is it about this movie that would stop them from continuing to make money and movies--movies and money? I feel like it's not a smart move for them. In fact, I think people will get fired because of this. Dude, I even thought there was another Spider-Man movie coming out this same summer!! But now I find out that this is the End to everything!! It just doesn't make sense to me from a fan perspective and a business perspective. But, listen to the podcast and we'll talk about it! We discuss every detail of why this is the best decision for the studio and the comic book industry as a whole. Furthermore, we will compare this to the pre-Broadway theatre industry in the mid-1700s in New England. (Hey! This isn't the last movie they're making! What are you? A moron?) ...oh...

You know, here at The M6P, we never really know what we will end up talking about. We have a plan, but sometimes it just goes a little askew, if you know what I mean. What we didn't know going into this episode is that Andy would come out completely enlightened and with a proper understanding of females now. That's right. This documentary (ahem...movie)--right, this movie about equal rights--(No. No no. It was a movie about a super hero.) Sure. This movie about super women was just what he needed to understand the plight of all women in every culture. (You are going to get us in so much trouble, man.)

There's a lot going on here in the MCU, the Netflix Marvel U, and the comics. Spider-Man is finding his way, the X-Men are getting their leader back, the young X-Men are back where they belong and--of course--Cable is dead again. I tell you, right when we think we are rid of the "young" element in these comics the writers introduce a new, young Cable. Can you imagine the conversation in the editorial meetings? "Finally, we figured out a way to fix the problem Bendis put us in!! We sent those young X-Men back to where they came from. Did anyone else think that that was going to be as difficult as it was? I wish there was some way to know on the front end the corner we were painting ourselves into." "Me too! I'm so glad we are done with that. Now onto the next problem: I hear that our characters are too old and unrelatable. Any ideas?" "Well, we could kill off an older character, but bring him back as a young one." "Johnson!!! That's brilliant!! It would be like we aren't even losing a character. I think this is the best idea I've ever heard!!" "Did it again, Johnson! You just reinvented comics!!"

The world has truly had a big loss this past month. But still we are called to a time of Thanksgiving. We are grateful and thankful for the time that we have here on this planet with the greats. Through the times we spend with those we love, with those that create and those that inspire us, we are can take heart and live to impact others in the same way that we have been impacted. True Believers, let us not become weary in doing good. But rather, let us be motivated by those that have come before. They have fought the good fight and have paved the way for greatness. Through the stories that have made us reach for the stars, we can turn to the next generation and do the same. Create and inspire. Remember that with Great Power also comes Great Responsibility. It is now our turn to become the hero. You will be missed, Stan. Excelsior! Now seems as good a time as any to mention our sponsors. We are sponsored by DCBService.com.

Now wait, I know there's a real Cable and a fake Cable. (No, they are both real.) Just hang with me, okay? There's really no need to correct me here. Alright, there's a real Cable and a fake Cable. Now the real one just killed the fake one, so now there is only a real one. (I don't think that's how it is. The 'older' one was killed by the 'younger' one.) That's not right. The fake one was killed by the shrimpy one. (...No...You may have misunderstood. First of all, they are both real. The younger one is real; the onlder one is real. They both are Cable.) Now you tell me, how's that even possible. (Through time travel.) Hahaha! No, there are different dimensions. That's where Ahab came from. So the fake one is the grumpy dude with the eye that was just in that movie. He was from a different dimension. (No, it's time travel.) No. It's not. (Yes, it is. How do you think Cable got so old?) That ain't Cable. That's the fake Cable. (You mean Stryfe?) Who? (Nevermind. Trust me, it's time travel.) How can it be time travel? Ahab is not the same guy as in the book. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! You mean to tell me that you think that the whale is going to come from the past and show up at the X-Mansion? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! (You know that's not a real story, right?) Do you think I'm an idiot?

Have you ever just loved a new character so much, you didn't care if he was a good guy or a bad guy? I mean, have you seen this Vox guy? He's amazing, right? Sure the writing isn't too hot, and the art is questionable....but, this guy!!! AMARIGHT?!?! The mask, the red, the instrument of death? He's just so cool. (You know he looks almost exactly like Black Bolt, right?) No he doesn't. (Yes. He. Does.) Why do you do this to me? Why do you try to take away everything I always like? (I'm just sayin'.) I hate you. (Whatever, man. He's a poor man's Dark Hawk.) You take that back! (He looks like a mix between Kraven's furry sweater vest and that time that Iron Man was around those knights.)

Now? Now, Andy? Now you are appreciating Dan Slott's Spider-Man? He's got one issue left until Nick Spencer jumps on the book. (Well, you know what they say, "They cut down all the trees and they constructed a bunch of parking spaces.") That is not what they say at all. I'm dumbfounded at how idiotic that statement was. (Hahahaha! You called yourself dumb!) No I didn't, I said I was dumbfounded. Why in the world would you start to enjoy Slott's run on Spider-Man now that he will be leaving the book after these past 10 years? (Do you really want to know the truth?) Yes. Why would I ask you if I didn't want to know the truth? (I think I'm afraid.) What do you mean? (I'm afraid of being out there alone. I'm afraid of the possibility of another bad run on Spider-Man.) I'm still a little confused, man. And now, actually, a little concerned. What do you mean? (We've had 10 years of poor Spider-Man writing. But we've had 10 years of knowing exactly what we were in for. We knew it wasn't going to really be our Peter Parker or our Spider-Man. There was a comfort in knowing precisely what to expect.) And now you have a chance of getting great Spider-Man stories with good characterization and plots and not Peter being Tony Stark. (RIGHT!! RIGHT!!!!! We have a "chance..." ...we also have chance of being let down like no other time before. At least we knew we were getting poor writing.

My head is spinning. I can't even get words together to form sentences right now. We watched the movie, we talked about the movie...but really...didn't we just live the movie? Also...I think we are living it now and everyday here on after. Infinity War has undoubtedly made an impact on everything we do from here on out. (I think you're being a tad overzealous, sir.) I don't think I am. Did you see it? (Yes.) And did it not change everything? (I can neither confirm nor deny what I have seen.) What? That makes no sense, why would you say that? (Okay! OKAY! It was awesome! What is going to happen?!? How will they cope with all these changes?!? Did Jarvis really die?!?!?!) Jarvis? What are you talking about? (Avengers: No Surrender. What are you talking about?) Infinity War. (Wait...you told me to prepare for the most important Avengers story that ever took place.) Yeah. (So that's what I did. I read Avengers: No Surrender.) I don't understand how you can continue to mess up in life as many times as you do. (You told me to prepare for the podcast, and I did!) There's no need to get testy with me. You were ridiculous and there's no excuse for it. (WHAT?!?!?! Fine! We'll just go to a time that we didn't have this conversation.) What are you--ZIP ZIP ZIP! The green stone!!!!!

Did you see that movie? It was AMAZING! (Well, it wasn't AMAZING. It was really good.) What are you talking about? Didn't you see it?!? It was hands down, the best Marvel movie that they've ever made! (What makes you say that?) Didn't you see it? Weren't you watching? (Yeah, I saw it. It was alright.) Alright!?!? Are you kidding me right now? It was the greatest movie of our time, and so important to our lost culture! (The movie about the cat guy and the metal stuff?) YES! It will go down in history as a classic film that all other films will be measured against! (I just want to make sure I understand you...the movie we just saw with the flying hover jets, the man with the arm cannon, where they drink the purple juice, and that has the cg cougars in the tree of purpleness?)

Don't get me wrong--I love doing the podcast. Oh, it's great. But sometimes...just sometimes...our personal lives get in the way. Kids, jobs, sickness, bitcoin, they all force us to take up valuable comic talk time to discuss our friendship and lives. Ridiculous, I know. I tell Jarid all the time, "Listen, I hate you. I am not interested in how much money you are making with that crypto-currency scam or how amazing your hair looks or how ripped your tan muscles are." And you know what? He gets it. He tells me, "Listen, Andy, I hate you. I'm not interested in your awesome family, your health, your job, your petrifying fear of melting ice cream, or your adventure with the farm." And that's fine. You know, it's just how it is. We try to minimize the crazy "friendship" stuff to the bare minimum, so we can get down to what really and truly matters in our lives: comics. I don't think you guys understand; I NEED to know what is happening with Bendis and Spider-Man. Who will be writing Miles Morales? How will they wrap up Jessica Jones? How much longer will we all have to suffer through Dan Slott's amazing run on Amazing Spider-Man? These are life-changing things. When your kids get old enough to read comics as an adult, you will be able to say that you were there during the historic changes in Marvel. JMS had left, Quesada had left and a nation was divided.

Huge news! Just huge! That's right. Bendis has left Marvel never to return! (We don't know that.) Thor, titled Thor 3 was the best movie in the universe! (That's not the title.) Punisher is underwhelming and is basically an animated kids show! (Now you're just going to get parents to hate us.) And lastly Axel Alonso is opening up his own pizza place in the Marvel lobby. (I think that's offensive) Is it? I don't see how. I love pizza. Also, there is no reason why the Marvel offices shouldn't have 3 different pizza places right in the lobby. Joey Q's Pizza Pies, the Alonso Hulking Pizzeria, and Brevoort n' CB's Pizza Castle. (I don't even know what to say about this. How did we get on this topic?) My goodness I am So. Hungry.

We are all always so happy when we get that feeling of comfort and familiarity. "That's what it felt like to read comics when I was a kid." That's really what we all long to say. We try to recapture that moment of hope and wonder that comes along the first time you open up a comic. To some of us it happened early on in life, and for others they were late bloomers. But nothing compares to having your heart leap when Spidey overcomes his own fears and doubts to save the day. Nothing is better than having Cap do what's right no matter how dense the moral murkiness seems. There is nothing like realizing for the first time what makes Thor truly worthy. However, as time goes on, it seems that those issues that make your heart leap become fewer and farther between. And that's why we are excited folks. Maybe...just maybe with Marvel looking toward their roots a little bit more we can experience the thrill and emotion one more time. These aren't just "funny books." No, this is our heart and soul. These are our heroes. We sit behind the pages hoping that one day we can be more like Steve or Matt or Peter or Scott or even Logan. We see something in these characters that make us want to be better. When they struggle, we pull for them. When we struggle, we know they've been there too. Marvel, please, make us wonder again. Show us who we can be one more time. Give us our heroes. (Wow, that's totally sappy, man.) Just shut up. Now seems as good a time as any to mention our sponsors. We are sponsored by DCBService.com.

We saw this coming from a mile away. Cap is evil. We knew it. We all knew it to be true. How could we ever see anything different? This man is pure hatred. The way he wields that giant shield with the star on it. How he can't stand freedom. How he can't stand people who even like freedom. He even hates every single person that ever wanted to vote in their school's homecoming dance election. It's really tough to hold that much hate inside. That's why there are now two of them. That's right. Two. Two Captain Americas. One of them is gaunt and not fun-looking, but the other one is happy and smiling. Well...not really. He was really unhappy when he saw evil Cap. I have to admit, I'm a little confused about what even is going on with this story. Now seems as good a time as any to mention our sponsors. We are sponsored by DCBService.com.

Did you ever think that you would hear the day that we actually say that Dan Slott is doing a great job with my favorite character Spider-Man? Well, today you aren't necessarily going to hear it either. But now, now...let's be honest--I am impressed. It's not terrible. Actually the Clone Conspiracy has been refreshing. Sure it is still very outlandish, but it has kind of brought Spidey back to where he was before. (Duh, he's doing a clone story.) You're right. We really can't seem to get away from that with this character, can we? Not sure why that is exactly, but at least he's not out around the world doing Iron Man things! (But he is. He is going to cities that have Spider-Cycles hidden around the world.) Just leave me alone, okay? Can't I have one moment's worth of peace? I want to like Spider-Man. Just let me do that!

I'm going to break character for just a second and let everyone know how wonderful it is to try to catch up on so many wonderful comics. I think this time it's been great because I'm not reading by week, but rather by title. I'm gathering up all the issues of--let's say Spider-Man--and going through them all at once. That then gets me interested in what's going on with Spider-Gwen. (It does?) Well, no, but there was a tie-in there. (So you just lied? You lied to the face of our listeners...our fans...our brothers and sisters?) I think you're being a little dramatic, don't you? (I do not. I think I'm being as dramatic as I could possibly need to be in order to convey the amount of terror you should feel from our listeners feeling terror that you are lying to their faces!) That's the second time you said that. You said I'm lying to their faces. This is like a blog, man. (No! NO! You don't get to dictate to me what is and is not a web log! Just because you like Spider-Man, you feel you can dictate anything that has the word "web" in it? Or "spider," or "Peter!") What are you talking about? When did I dictate to you anything about the name Peter? (You told me your interest was "Peter-ing" out when I was talking to you about the dream I had about the 87 sided dice for my new headless virtual reality Teletubbies game.)

Let's be honest. We didn't watch the movie at all. But we are pretty good guessers. There's really no need for us to spout off or wax eloquent about the film that can stand on its own two feet so well. I mean, this cinematic masterpiece stands head and shoulders above the rest. It lasts longer than time itself in the annals of foreverdom. What can you say about a film so good? It has that raccoon and the tree thing. It has the guy that fought dinosaurs in that parks department show. It's got Vinny, the guy that should have played Venom in that 3rd Spider-Man movie that was made specifically to hurt my inner-deep-down heart. And it has the Watchers!!! The WATCHTERS!!! Oh...spoilers. Didn't I say that? (No, you didn't. How could you spoil that most amazing part?!?!) Are you serious? That part was ridiculous and dumb. (What!?! I'LL KILL YOU!)

Some people didn't think it was a good idea to bring back the two different teams. I mean, we've had the Schism. We know what that's all about. We had the hatred and the two teams working against each other. But you know what we haven't had yet? We haven't had the original X-Men all backn on the same team in quite some time. (But that's not the original team.) Sure it is. There's Iceman, Angel, Cyclops, Jean and who is that other one? The super mad one that doesn't care about killing or sending people to hell? (WHOA! SPOILER ALERT MUCH?) I don't even know what that means, man. The guy that was all big and bulky and skin-colored and sorta hairy? (Yeah, that's the Beast.) No it isn't. I'm talking about the guy that traveled into the future with the original X-Men. He is really smart and likes Jean...? (Yeah..."The Beast!") No, the fleshy colored guy. (I'm telling you that's the Beast. He hasn't mutated yet.) Wait, what? Why is he on a team of mutants then? (What do you mean?) If he isn't a mutant, then why does he fight on their team? (He's a mutant.) You just said he hadn't mutated yet. How is he a mutant if he hadn't mutated yet? (No, no...he hasn't got the fur yet.) Oh, you mean his Grant Morrison secondary mutation, got it. (No, that's the cat thing.) The cat thing? You mean Tigra? I didn't see her in this comic!!!! Holy Cow! She's in here?? I have to find my book. Hold on! (Geezum.)

Do you all remember how Andy was so vehemently against the Old Man Logan storyline by Mark Millar? Do you remember the venom that he spat at that story for years now? "How could it be in continuity?" he said. "It doesn't make any sense," he said. Well now, we see that he is nothing but a no-good two-faced turncoat. That's right! "Oh, I hate that story and it's bad and don't take my continuity from me!" What a bunch of bull-o-knee! He must not have meant any of it. How could he? How could he have hated the comic so much and loved Logan? That Benedict Arnold of a podcaster! That backstabbing best friend that would drive up to Ohio to be with his friend on the auditions for a commercial for one single day, and then turn around and drive another 1400 miles the next day back home!!!! Who does he think he is? (Bro, just give it a rest. You're not helping your case.) I think I am. (No, you're not. I'm not mad at you that you like this movie.) You're not? (No. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and preferences.) Oh....cool...I may have gone overboard a bit. But...I mean, you're still with me on X-Men First Class, right? (Absolutely!

It's a Daredevil themed Mardi Gras everybody! What do you like most about Mardi Gras? Is it the masks? Is it the floats? Is it how a bunch of people are gathered together celebrating all the pagan gods of drunkenness? Or is it the family fun? (I think you are getting mixed up with what part is enjoyable and which part is reprehensible.) Not at all! I think the best thing about this wonderful grape juice holiday is how many people pretend to be super heroes--they are everywhere! (No, that's not what they are doing. They are hiding their faces because they are namelessly celebrating Fat Tuesday.) Then why are they doing it on Monday? (Fat Tuesday is Mardi Gras day, but the season lasts a few months.) You mean to tell me that all these people have been walking around drunk for TWO MONTHS?!?!? (...for simplicity's sake, "yes.") Then they aren't super heroes at all! NO, not at all.

I don't have much to say here. What can you say, really? Captain Marvel is no longer Carol Danvers. There, I said it. What has become the parody of Carol was once what she was. Was it bad? Was it sexist? Was it off-color? I can't say. (Come on, you can tell me.) No, I mean that I don't know. (You don't know? You don't know whether her booty costume was inappropriate?) I'm not saying that. I'm just saying that she is a different character now. (Oh, because she changed her name?) She didn't change her name. (Yeah, she did! She's Captain Marvel now. Before she was Ms. Marvel.) That's not what I mean. I mean that she isn't acting like herself. (Oh, no they wouldn't do that. They already did a Skrull storyline.) That's not what I mean either! And besides, we just got done Civil War II. Don't tell me that they don't reuse storylines. (I think you're wrong. I don't think she's a Skrull.) JUST FORGET IT!!!

Good luck finding another co-host! I've had to put up with 100 episodes of this! Remember the time you made me act like Professor X in your amazing role-play segment?!?!

There seems to be a lot going on here in this country. Two opposing sides at each other's throats. Citizens teetering on the edge of a knife. On one side you have a group that has spent all their existence defending those that cannot defend themselves...even when it wasn't for their own benefit. And on the other side you have a group that is fighting for the rights of their people that they believe have existed since the dawn of time. Both have good intentions, but neither trusts the other. For if they do, they risk losing their populace to the other or worse. On one side you have someone that will do whatever it takes to defend the group against all threats; foreign or domestic for the good of the whole. On the other, the leader believes you can't simply put one group over another because you favor them. You must protect all. But soon, neither group will be able to stand in their place. One must relinquish the power that both desire. They will inevitably collide and only one will remain...for the next few years. Never has there been another time where the population was so divide (except during the Civil War, of course). OH!!! You thought I was talking about America?!?! No, no. I was talking about the InHumans. hahaha! Yes, yes...I know, those rascally and loveable nerdlings and the pure jovial fun of the X-Men. Yep! Those crazy kids!

Yeah, but why? Why is Logan such an old man? Is he really 92? Or do those books have nothing to do with each other? I'm confused. That girl in the issue that looks like a mix between Deadpool and Elektra...? Who was that? I think that there is a lot going on in the Marvel Universe (Prime U, if you will) that I do not quite understand. What if...just bear with me now...what IF Captain America is really some sort of deep, deep cover spy for Hydra. What if there was a duck that was a detective? What if there was a girl that was basically a large, person-sized squirrel? What if Iron Man was an A.I. and basically a girl. What if there's this girl that takes on the role of Ms. Marvel--you know, the one with the bad costume. No, the little girl wouldn't have that costume! That's ridiculous! This girl needs something like a smock because she can get all stretchy and bendy. Exactly! Like Mr. Fantastic. He is just so fantastic, they needed to turn him into a little girl that could be Ms. Marvel. That's what I call killing two birds with one smock! I feel like these are good stories. That, and the fact that I'm bringing back Gwen. But get this: she's a maniac assassin/mercenary with a cool two-toned costume. Now seems as good a time as any to mention our sponsors.

There is a voice deep inside all of us that comes out at the most fantastic times. These are times when we long for that perfect opportunity to laugh and cry with our friends. This is the voice that we wish we had when people ask us how strong we are or how much we care. The voice may be different for everyone. It may be that deep dark secret that we keep with us when we pretend we are proposing to that special someone (Tina Turner, of course!) It could also be that voice that chills us in the night when we realize that if we woke up with Shuma Gorath standing...does he stand?...over us, we would scream out in pure unadulterated terror. The shriek of a small but terrified hamster. That voice reveals so much about us. That voice is a facet of who we are. That voice is what we give you all on this show. And that voice, sadly, for Jarid is what he calls his....well, why spoil it? Listen to this show and just...just forgive him. Okay? Just...he deserves our sympathy.

A lot of times when I am writing these show summaries, I let my mind wander. I sort of go off into a free-writing exercise. (Not the kind that makes me dredge up old memories of alien abductions or anything like that, right?) No! No...of course not. I'm usually expressing my deep-seated fears of confusion and loneliness. (I'm sorry, is this NOT one of those times? And if not, how?) Keep your shirt on! I'm getting to that. Now, I want to be clear. I love Carol Danvers. But it is a shallow, superficial love. A love that is really at its core, a love that is conditional. That condition would be that she is wearing her old costume and Brian Reed is writing her. That's it...simple, really. HOWEVER!! And I cannot stress this enough. HOWEVER!!!! I hate Tony Stark. With a passion of disdain that burns with the fury of 10,000 suns! (I didn't know you felt that strongly about this dude.) Well...he's okay, I guess. But, my point is, that I can't fight to protect the changing future at all. I don't know who's side I'm on! And the saddest part...I'm not sure I care. Why was it so easy to come down on a side when it was about registering in a database and so difficult when someone is seeing death and destruction of the nudist/greenish variety? How can I live with myself when the big questions are harder to take a stand on than the smaller, less important ones? I mean: PEOPLE WILL DIE!! And I can't decide. But "Oh, No! Don't make me sign that piece of paper saying I'm doing good for the neighborhood! Listen, I'm going to go have a good cry and then eat a frozen popsicle. That will calm the nerves.

Today we will be talking about Civil War. Not the one way back in the 1970s when aliens invaded Roscoe, AZ, and mankind took to the stars and fought the Russians, but the one that really matters: Captain America Civil War. And I guess you could say that is was fairly civil. They didn't really spit at each other. We also go goo goo and ga ga over Black Panther. We give the verbal equivalent of a high-five about Spider-Kid. We also like how Black Widow likes Hulk and speaks for him and tells Tony he's a jerk and betrays everyone and kills Crossbones and is replaced by a Skrull and causes another alien invasion and has long hair.

So that's something...isn't it? Sure, sure! But is it still that politics thing? Am I still part of their body? I NEED TO KNOW! The way you say it, it sounds really weird. I don't know if you were ever really part of their body. But, yeah, they discuss the same movie news, comics, and how their lives take them on different paths.
