Welcome to The 90s Never Happened, your one-stop podcast for everything you wanted to know about 90s comics but are too afraid to ask! 

Sometimes life gets in the way of reading comics, so instead of a new episode, we have a blooper reel for you. Hear a pile of slop cut from our first sixteen episodes while we plan our next big stretch. Please enjoy this nonsense made from nonsense and please don't tell any of our mothers what we said.

We'll be back with new content in the new future, and it's going to be about Rob Liefled and X-Force, so be prepared. In the meantime, if anyone asks you what comics you should read, go right ahead and tell them the 90s never happened!

Welcome to The 90s Never Happened, your one-stop podcast for everything you wanted to know about 90s comics but are too afraid to ask! 

Since everyone is getting high during podcast recordings (Bree, mostly), Dan decided to teach everyone a lesson about the dangers of drug use--90s style! We start with Captain America Goes To War Against Drugs (no shit, that's the title) and The Amazing Spider-Man: Skating on Thin Ice. What do Cap and Spidey have to teach young people about drug abuse and how to avoid letting your youth sports team down. Find out how evil space aliens want kids on drugs in a bid to take over the planet. Swing into action on the mean streets of Winnipeg and discover how hockey pucks play a role in drug smuggling! 

Put down your bong or crack pipe, flush those quaaludes down the toilet, and stay out of grandma's medicine cabinet! Dan, Jude, and Bree are here to make sure you just say no! And if any strange men who might be drug-peddling aliens tell you the first time is free while asking about what comic books they should read, make sure to let the know the 90s never happened!

Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about children using drugs, child abuse, drug abuse, and other topics that may be too much for sensitive listeners. Kids, don't do drugs.

Welcome to The 90s Never Happened, your one-stop podcast for everything you wanted to know about 90s comics but are too afraid to ask! 

This week, Dan, Jude, and Bree get geared up for their first firefight with The Punisher. We read and review issues 47-48 from 1991 AKA The Brattle Gun. What was Marvel thinking when they advertised this as a Dessert Storm tie-in? Is Frank Castle's fake mustache a hate crime? Does the giant gun symbolize a penis? We'll get into all that and more!

So get your bullet-proof jackets and your map of fake countries as our trio of faux experts take you on a journey to a part of the world that's seen more turmoil than a Marvel writing room! And if anyone tells you about these skirmishes in the Middle East while asking about what comic books they should read, make sure to let the know the 90s never happened!

Content Warning: This episode contains historical facts and opinions regarding the area of the world commonly called "The Middle East". Though its discussed with a tongue-in-cheek tone, some listeners may be offended by the content since the source material was a tad on the Islamophobic side with a large scoop of Zionism on top. There are also descriptions of violence, sexual assault, and some political commentary based on the comics we reviewed.

If Johnny Cochran were alive today, he'd have a thing or two to say about this week's episode. Since he's gone, Dan, Jude, and Bree are stuck lamenting over the second nuttiest trial of the nineties. That's right, it's the Trial By Jury three-issue arc from Amazing Spider-Man 383-385. Our trio of pretend comic book experts put on their pretend lawyer hats. Meanwhile, Peter Parker's perplexing parental problems aren't getting any better. Also, Peter does the worst thing to Mary Jane we've seen on this podcast so far! 

So if you find yourself on trial by a bunch of Iron Man wannabes while your aunt doubts your parents' existence, make damn sure to plead The 90s Never Happened!

Welcome to The 90s Never Happened, your one-stop podcast for everything you wanted to know about 90s comics but are too afraid to ask!

This week,  Dan, Jude, and Bree continue their discussion on Peter Parker's pernicious parents. Are they who they claim to be, or are they clones, aliens, alien clones, boomer assholes, or something even weirder? Our crack team of comic book readers and pretend experts will get to the bottom of it all! Also, what's the deal with all these damn Spider Slayers messing up Spidey's "platonic" outings with his ex girlfriend The Black Cat?

Remember, kids, if a white-haired woman dressed in black showing almost all of her boobies asks you what comics you should read, be sure to tell her that the 90s never happened!

Happy belated Valentine's Day from Dan, Jude, and Bree. On this special holiday episode, we read 1997's Marvel Valentine Special, which includes five short lovey dovey tales featuring Spider-Man and Mary Jane, Daredevil, Venus, Absorbing Man and Titania, and Cyclops and Jean Grey! Do these five stories bring up feelings of love or trigger our collective gag reflexes?

We finally get around to finishing Maximum Carnage! Dan, Jude, and Bree read part 14 in Spider-Man Unlimited #2. They discuss how Peter was right to lock Mary Jane out of his double life, why Spider-Man has such a hardon for sparing Carnage's life, and what happens when comic book writers don't know how electric facilities operate. Also, we talk about the comic book.

Jude is back from her stint in prison, so we're web-shooters deep into Maximum Carnage. This week, we've read parts 9-13. In the penultimate episode of this crossover, we get exhausted from the amount of superheroes in this thing, Captain America's forced patriotism, and Peter's gaslighting of Mary Jane. And what the hell are Morbius, Deathlok, and Iron Fist even doing here?

As always, like and subscribe. Tell a friend. Make sure your proctologist listens. Leave a review, especially if you hate us. This thing runs on props.
