Tyler and Benny chat about the abysmal failure that was Secret Invasion, and ponder the future of the MCU which has been struggling more and more since Endgame.

We take a bit of a break from our typical content to bring you guys an episode highlighting the struggles that writers and actors face, with a focus on the ongoing strikes that the studios have not allowed to end.

Benny and Tyler take a deep dive into the first 3 episodes of Secret Invasion on Disney+

The guys have a fantastic conversation with Rowan Parker, Creative Director at Riot Forge. They chat about the newest game under the Forge banner, Convergence, as well as League of Legends and the joys and challenges of crafting different stories in an established universe.

A casual episode with no special guests where Benny and Tyler talk about the soulless cash grab that is The Flash, as well as the current state of movies as a whole. Please forgive the rough audio quality, we had an issue with the recording this week.

This episode is extraordinary for a number of reasons. The day we recorded was the 11th anniversary of the passing of Benny's Father, Carlos Rosario. For the episode, we sit down with Damion Scott, the legendary comic book artist, and writer. Damion has worked with DC and Marvel on some of their most significant properties, including Batman, Batgirl, Spider-Man, Deadpool, etc. Damion got his start working with Carlos at his comic shop, Brain Damage Comics back in the day, and credits Carlos and Brain Damage Comics with a lot of where he is today. This was an emotional episode, and we hope you all enjoy it.
