You voted for us to catch up on the Chris Claremont/Alan Davis run on Excalibur, so we read the first 19 issues and talked about them! Once again, one of us more or less liked it, the other, not so much.
Author Tres Dean joins us this week to talk about his upcoming book, For Your Consideration: Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson! We talk about The Rock’s movies, why he’s just so dang likable, researching his career, his feud with Vin Diesel, the hidden gem of his filmography and more! Plus, Matt and Chris take a listener question!
Ben Marra returns to the show this week to talk about Jesusfreak, his upcoming graphic novel with writer Joe Casey! We also discuss Terror Assaulter OMWOT: One Man War on Terror in very vague terms, Bronze Age Marvel Comics, author photos, the seriousness of Ben’s work, doing fictional stories about religious figures, and more! Plus Matt and Chris take a cosmic listener question!
We’re ranking characters once again this week, and we just happened to get two lists of Spider-Man villains and supporting characters. I think we can talk about those.
The honorable Chip Zdarsky returns to the show this week to talk about Daredevil, The Invaders, his run on Spectacular Spider-Man, Marvel Two-in-One, writing Spider-Man jokes, running for office, his ideal signing, surprising people by being serious and so much more! Plus, Chris and Matt take a listener question about Archie Comics!
We’re wrapping up our deep dive into the first volume of Uncanny X-Force and finally ranking it, possibly all as one big story! Plus, thanks to Dan Black for our new theme music!
