Episode 33: Who is Marvel Chairman Ike Perlmutter?

Listen Later

Fans love to blame Marvel Chairman Ike Perlmutter for a lot of MCU fallacies, but who is he really? Chris takes Anthony and Erin through a (nearly) full history of this eccentric corporate mogul. With shady business practices, racist and sexist comments, and a strange relationship with Donald Trump, this is one of the more interesting stories in the MCU.
