The Nerd Skool finishes up Captain Marvel. Joe recaps his assignment to watch Room with Brie Larsen and tells the faculty what he thinks of Brie Larsen now. The gang discuss the fact that Lashana Lynch is British and plays 007, which causes a side discussion of James Bond and misogyny and the difference between a Bond and a 007. They dip into the old 90’s dial-up internet days and the excitement of waiting for it to connect. Art and Andy have a small conflict that TBJ gets involved with for a bit about Secret Invasion or some such nonsense, and the gang starts looking forward to Endgame and the upcoming Marvels movie with Iman Vellani, who actually writes comic books. The Nerd Skool starts contemplating writing their own comic book.
