The Muse storyline comes to a big end this week in an episode that feels like it's got a couple of weird logic gaps. Still, we're really enjoying this show, a total shocker to us. Of course the last few weeks have all been using the OG version of the season, before major reshoots - next week begins the two episodes that are completely new. Will it still be for us? 

Before that: why release an extended sequence where Superman is all beat up the whole time? Is A Minecraft Movie saving cinema as we know it? And will Robert Downey Jr's Doctor Doom get-up look as crummy as the image on his birthday party invitation?

Thanks for listening! See you next week.

This week we have a bottle episode where Matt gets tangled up in a bank robbery hostage situation and we get the episode where Daredevil finally returns. Was it worth the wait? Will we ever see Matt having dinner with the Khans? And does Muse have powers or what?

Before that: gym influencer Joey Swoll! Will Doomsday end with a white screen, a la Crisis on Infinite Earths? Will Spider-Man ever grow up? And who is the villain anyway? The Kelce Brothers of movie podcasting answer all these and more!

Thanks for listening. 

We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming for this news bulletin: 

Today Marvel held a very strange (and very successful) event to announce the cast of Avengers: Doomsday, which is shooting right now. There are a bunch of names you might expect and there are a few left field characters showing up, but maybe the most intriguing aspect is who is not going to be in this movie. We discuss it all!

Plus, we kind of get distracted by talking about The Studio, the new Seth Rogen show on AppleTV+.

Frank's back, folks. And he's the maintenance man. This week on Daredevil still no costumes but the drama and character stuff is simply terrific, plus we get two renditions of a Jefferson Starship classic. 

Before that we have some news, including the rumor that Kevin Feige is feeling iffy on the Russos after Electric State and that the fourth Spidey movie may be adapting Spider Island, a storyline where everybody in New York City gets Spider-Man powers. Is that a good idea? Eh.

We just published the latest episode of Watch Men, where we talk about the Josh Trank Fantastic Four. It's available only for subscribers at the $5 and above levels at the Patreon. What are you waiting for?

See you next week!

Will Secret Wars have the Hulk holding up a mountain? Should you film elder abuse and not do anything about it? And could there be a multiversal Mary Jane in Spider-Man 4? We discuss all of this and more before diving into this week's Daredevil Born Again. 

Which, for the record, we liked! It's an all-trial episode as Matt Murdock tries to keep White Tiger out of the clink, but courtroom shenanigans make a mess of everything, and that's before Matt does something to really make the judge angry. 

Thanks for listening, see you next week!

The Man Without Fear is back, and we're covering the first two episodes of his new Disney+ show. Which, by the way, offers absolutely no information for folks who may have not watched the original Netflix Daredevil. Thankfully you have us, who half-remember some stuff from the first two seasons. 

Speaking of us, this is a special episode - we're together in person! Derek flew to LA for the weekend and we took a road trip, but first we recorded this. That's why the sound is a bit off this week. Also, there are a couple of visual moments, and if you'd love to see them in action, simply head over to the Patreon or our YouTube channel .

Next week we'll have the next episode, for which I am hopeful, Derek less so. What do you think of the show so far? Come join our Discord - for Patreon subscribers only - and tell us!

The first season of this alt-universe MCU Spidey show comes to a close with a huge surprising reveal about Spider-Man's origin, a visit from symbiotes and the Scorpion getting his face smashed in. The first act is over and the stage is set for season two, and we can't wait. 

Before that: Grand Theft Hamlet, the V miniseries and a whole buncha news this week. And by the way, stick around at the end of the show because we go pretty far afield after the recap is over. Just letting you know!

We're off next week but we will return in two weeks with the first two episodes of Daredevil: Born Again. 

It gets real in this trio of episodes, as the traditionally kind of lame villain Scorpion proves a bit much for a young version of Spider-Man. When we say we gasped...

Also: Brave New World gets the worst MCU Cinemascore, they may have a Dick Ryder ready for the Nova show and there's cursing in a promo for Superman. 

If you want to hear us talking about Captain America: Brave New World join the Patreon! Subscribers at the $5 and above levels get access to Watch Men, our monthly superhero deep dive podcast. 

BTW: If you get to the part of the episode where we start talking about Max's The Pitt and you don't watch The Pitt... you can just turn it off. That's the end of the show but we do go a teeny bit long there. 

See you next week for the conclusion of season one of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!

They're tossing a whole bunch of Spidey at us each week, but at least the show is good! This new take on young Spider-Man is having a blast playing with Marvel Comics lore and using real bottom of the barrel villains like Speed Demon and Unicorn. But Doc Ock waits in the wings, so maybe Spidey will be facing a real threat soon. 

Before that: the Super Bowl! There's a new Thunderbolts* trailer, but nothing for Superman. Does that show weakness on the part of WB or am I talking out my butt? 

Next week: three more episodes of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!

We interrupt your week to bring you breaking news about the Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer and also Post Malone Oreos.
