Holy uploads, Batman! Two in one month?!?

Yes - we're getting back into the pace we hope to maintain for the foreseeable future (thank God), but whether or not this is good for our listeners is for you to decide. On this episode, Senseless (with permission from Verano) sidesteps the issue of why we were gone for so long (sorry, dear listeners, but I'm not ready to be that open with you yet...), and then we talk about a bunch of comic book related properties. No Way Home, the Batman, the Guardians of Justice, everything is on the table for this one... but if you want to know if we spoke meaningfully about a comic property that you're excited about... well, you'll just have to listen to the episode to find out!

We're back after an unscheduled 2 month hiatus (more about that in the next episode). This time we jump right in to a chapter in Cable & Deadpool in which Captain America shows off his espionage skills... and they are surprisingly lacking considering his longtime friendship with one Director Nick Fury. We also find out some more about Cable's past in the future, and Deadpool makes a minor cameo in a book whose title bears his name. Then, I try to rope Verano into fixing some messes my kids made around the house... but I'm feeling a little woozy. You'll have to listen to the episode to find out why...

(Tune in next time for a few frank discussions about a lot of things. Until then, "T-T-F-N, Ta Ta For Now"!)

Welcome to our first podcast of 2022... ONLY four weeks late (seriously... we recorded on January 3rd, but it was rendered unusable thanks to Senseless's accidents of babbling...). Anyways, join Mr. Verano and the Senseless Apprentice as we discuss the newest Matrix movie and Senseless's own personal theory about the origins of the Merovingian (aren't you glad we waited until after the movie had been taken off HBOMax to talk about the movie?).

Afterward we review Marvel's Villainous, a board game that allows the player to take on the role of a Marvel villain in a race to enact their evil plan first. The game was a lot of fun to play... the conversation? Well, we'll let you decide.

(Who would win in a fight, Bea Arthur or Weasel?)

On this episode we cover a more momentous occasion than usual, dear listener, as Mr. Verano and Senseless have the privilege to talk to you about the time that Peter Parker met Wade Wilson by getting thrown off the Queensboro Bridge (it's kinda his turn considering all of the times his girlfriends have been thrown from comparable structures). But seriously, Cable & Deadpool issue 24 - "Sticky Situations" - marks the introduction of Wade Wilson to his "special boy" Spider-Man (see Gwenpool Strikes Back issue 2 to get the reference). One of us also bloviates regarding the Eternals at some point (thankfully with minimal spoilers, but there's your warning if you were waiting to see the movie that has been out so long it is almost ready to be put on the company streaming service), hopefully you find it minimally tortuous. We close with an attempt to make homemade Advent wreaths, but what's the problem with that three leaf bough Senseless found that is a beautifully festive red and green? You'll have to listen to find out!!

(Holy timing, Batman!! What a fortuitous coincidence that this particular episode is dropping so close to the release of No Way Home!)

Well, this is a first... we waited so long to release the spoiler filled discussion about a comic related property that the movie release on the associated streaming service accidentally made the property relevant again (so I waited a few days to let Shang Chi's release on Disney+ go stale because the idea of lucking into good timing seemed off for a couple of amateurs like us). We also talk about What If...? and the Marvel fan freak out about the critical aggregate score of the Eternals that all the DCEU fans found all too familiar. It's a wonderfully mediocre discussion of Marvel comics related stuff, with tons of spoilers. Listen at your own risk.

(Who needs wit when you have parenthesis?)

In which Mr. Verano and Senseless discuss a poor example of a spouse (thankfully briefly) before turning their attention to Cable & Deadpool issue 23 - "Bosom Buddies Part 4: Fighting Myself". It should come as no surprise that Senseless still has little respect for the Cat, Verano still does not like Cyclops, and absolutely no one cares about Comcast (the comic book villain, not the cable company). This is the issue where we finally find out just who is hiding behind the Black Box armor - and the answer is so underwhelming I'm sure no one who is reading this has realized I spoiled the reveal in the previous sentence...

We finish by talking about the best way to carve a pumpkin - Verano probably has the better method, though in a way his carving technique is really Senseless' as well. What do I mean by that? You'll have to listen to find out!!

(I was dreaming when I wrote this, forgive me if I wrote too fast... Only people above a certain age and young hipsters can tell me the name of that song.)

We're finally back with another spoiler laden discussion about a current comic book property, but this time it's all your fault if you haven't seen the Suicide Squad yet since it is no longer on HBO Max. But as we say here on Dp-I-Y, good timing is for the professionals, and that ain't us. On this episode, Mr. Verano tries to offer an earnest critique of the movie in question while the Senseless Apprentice meanders through a web of his favorite fan theories and comic book connections. Maybe you can make sense of his nonsense.

(Oops, we did it again... and we're probably going to do it again soon.)

Welcome back to the pod (after an accidental month off)! We address the delay in releasing a new episode, but not until the last segment of the show. Before that, Mr. Verano gives Senseless a hand at understanding a particularly frustrating series of dreams, though it may have been a wasted effort... Then, we take a look at Cable & Deadpool issue 22 - "Bosom Buddies Part 3: Crack the Internet in Half" - in which Senseless expresses a newfound dislike (to put it mildly) of the Cat while Verano expresses his well-known dislike of the X-Man Cyclops (and then other things happen, too, but not the one thing that the entire issue seems to be building toward). Afterwards we dig into our mailbag for some totally not made up listener questions (though if any of you actually did ever send any real inquiries to us we would probably make the same implications and jokes that we do on this episode to protect the anonymity of the listener). We tackle topics like why our episodes seem to have random release dates and how to remove water rings from a coffee table. There is a third question, too, but Verano won't let Senseless answer it. Want to know why? You'll have to listen to find out!!

(Thank you to our loyal listeners for sticking with us... all eight of you - you know who you are)

**Listener BEWARE -- Ahead there be plentiful spoilers for Loki, Black Widow, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and WandaVision (in the episode, not this description)**

That's right, everyone, it's the spoiler-ific episode that nobody asked for (but we're doing it anyway because why not!?!)! Mr. Verano and the Senseless Apprentice discuss the most recent Marvel properties and the implications they provide for the future of the MCM (the Marvel Cinematic MULTIVERSE).

(We will return to our regularly scheduled doldrums soon)

We open this one by beating the "very few listeners" joke to death (we promise to stop soon... maybe), and then we get into discussing Cable & Deadpool issue 21, "Bosom Buddies Part 2: Friendly Fire". The one time Heroes for Hire drop by since the question of the issue is whether Deadpool's buddy Weasel did something bad to the Rand-Meachum servers, and apparently Luke Cage (the big Avenger-man now) owed Danny Rand a favor. The BAD Girls are still around, too, but you're probably tired of hearing Senseless complain about their depiction (I'm sure he gets a shot or two in this episode as well). Also, more C-list guest stars show up by the end of the issue (but you will have to listen to find out who they are, our hint: Deadpool thinks the chest tattoo of one of the guest stars is "so cool"). Then, one of us (I'm sure you can guess who), manages to screw up the safest of fireworks as we try to safely get rid of his leftovers from Independence Day (as we here at Dp-I-Y always say, good timing is for professional podcasts). So which one is it (smoke bombs, snakes, or glow sticks - yes, I'm sure he could mess that up, too)? You'll have to listen to find out.

(Special bonus episode [that no one asked for] coming soon where we share our reactions to Black Widow and Loki and discuss the implications each has for the future of the MCU)
