Graded Point Five

This week, it’s all about Marvel’s First Family, and how they’re completely useless in their own title.  Seriously, only Ben Grimm is worthwhile.  Reed is a doofy aspie, Sue is an enabler, Johnny is functionally retarded.  Only Ben stands above, as a paragon of all that is awesome.  We can live without a Fantastic Four title, but we’re always gonna want more Clobberin’ Time!

This week, it’s all about the big green guy.  We talk Planet Hulk and World War Hulk, how the Jade Giant has never been written better, and why the Illuminati are a buncha pricks. Intro music is “Equilibrium Instrumental” by junior85.

So we did a little 4th of July recording.  It’s not the greatest, and I’m not sure where we were going with all of this.   So we just talk Captain America for a while.  Sorta a 4th of July thing, I guess. I think I was under the influence enough that I actually called the show “Back Issues.”  We all were. Woops. Intro music is “Equilibrium Instrumental” by junior85.

This week, we talk a little about the passing of Adam West.  However, since that proved to be a bit of a downer, we quickly started ripping on Rob Liefeld.  Darrell kept calling him “Rob Riefeld”.  We made fun of him for that, too. Intro music is “Equilibrium Instrumental” by junior85.

This week, we got our friend Fetusberry from the Nothing In Particular Podcast on, to talk villains.  What ensues may actually be a war crime, and is most definitely a crime of good taste.  We had fun, and maybe someone will glean something from this exercise.  If nothing else, this is proof we should not have microphones.

This week, it’s all sorts of speculation about Marvel cutting a few titles under 20,000 issues sold per month.  It’s all pretty wild speculation, but we spend an hour ranting about it, anyway. Intro music is “Equilibrium Instrumental” by junior85.

We’re back from the hiatus! This week, we talk about Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2, the Thor: Ragnarok trailer, and the myriad ways DC just can’t seem to get their movie shit together. Intro music is “Equilibrium Instrumental” by junior85.

This is the last episode before a brief hiatus.  Doing some reformatting of the podcast, the cast, and pretty much everything.  Gonna be so much better, though.  Look for us to come back into action about the end of April, 2017.  For our go-home episode here, we discuss the philosophies of the X-Men and related characters.  What makes Magneto tick, the Darwinist extremes of Apocalypse, and the peaceful co-existence of the X-Men and Xavier.

This time around, we talk about how bogus death is in comics.  It never sticks, the dead keep rising, and frankly, it’s all just reached a point, you know? Intro music is “Equilibrium Instrumental” by junior85.
