 - What did the co-hosts have to say about collecting Spider-Man comic books?

 - What are some of the technical & artistic techniques used to make the movie look like a comic book brought to life?

 - What did the co-hosts have to say about the music & sound in the movie?

 - Which character's design was one co-host's biggest complaint?

 - Which co-hosts quibbled a little about information overload, visually; and which co-host had no complaints at all?

 - Was Kingpin a sympathetic character at all -- because of having a wife & kid and despite his villainy?

 - What nitpicks did the co-hosts have about the multiverse collider machine?

 - Which co-host has a new microphone?

 - Which co-host defended depth & emotion in the movie?

 - What did Dave's kids think about the movie?

 - And, which movie had to be substituted into the rotation when it was discovered that "Young Frankenstein" is not streaming...anywhere?

Listen now for the answers to these and other web-slinging questions.

Grab your costume, web-shooters, inter-dimensional friends, cartoon hammer, Rubik's cube, and a thumb-drive-shutdown-key-thing someone awkwardly refers to as a goober, as we crawl up a review of "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse."

Personal Note:  We're sorry for the unexpected hiatus between episodes.  There's a significant reason why we're a little behind, and we'll explain further in an episode hopefully coming soon.
