- Shortbox Summary Issue 011 - We Have to Astonish Them (Astonishing X-Men [2004] 1-6)The X-Men already had their big 2000's punch-you-in-the-face run thanks to Grant Morrison and co's New X-Men run from 2001, so, what comes next? A sequel! Picking up on some of the biggest threads from that seminal run, writer Joss Whedon (boo) and artist John Cassaday (yay) put together one of the most important comics Marvel printed in the 2000's. Who is Ord? What is Breakworld? Why does that woman have green hair? Is that a f'n dragon? We answer all these questions and more on the newest episode of Shortbox Summary!1 hr 27 min
- Shortbox Summary Issue 010 - It's Sean McKeever's World and We're Just Reading It
You know Shortbox Summary loves the 2000's and we got one of Marvel's most decorated writers of the early aughts to stop by and talk about their work! Sean McKeever, comics writer extraordinaire comes on Shortbox to talk about the following books:
Mary Jane (2004) 1-4
Mary Jane: Homecoming (2005) 1-4
Spider-man Loves Mary Jane (2005) 1-20
Sentinel (2003) 1-12
Sentinel Vol. 2 (2005) 1-5
Inhumans Vol. 4 (2003) 1-12
Gravity (2005) 1-5
YEAH that's a lot of books, which is why we don't do our typical summary stuff and instead jump RIGHT into the books, what it was like developing them, what it was like spending time with these characters, and what it was like being at Marvel in the early aughts.
This is a super fun episode, we hope you enjoy it!
