This episode we're doing an interview with Kurt Busiek!  He wasn't able to come on the show in person, but he was so kind to answer a ridiculous number of questions and in some detail via email, and so Jason is going to play him, as we discuss his time on the Avengers!

The Once an Invader story ends, and Jason Lady, author of numerous books for the young (and young at heart) joins us to discuss them.  

Find out all about Jason Lady's work at Jason R. Lady- Author of fantasy and sci-fi for young readers! 

The Lionheart of Avalon story ends with a new Captain Britain on the team, and then we begin Austen's second (and last) storyline, which introduces a new Invaders team!

The Lionheart of Avalon story continues, as Kelsey Leigh is given the powers of Captain Britain to avenge her death.  But there are some unintended consequences for her and what is going on with Thunderball from the Wrecking Crew.  

He's here!  Chuck Austen comes on as the new writer for a short stint, and he's bringing a whole new Captain Britain with him!  The Avengers fight the Wrecking Crew in London and a civilian dies!

It's another Avengers novel, this one written not only be someone who had read Avengers comics but even wrote them!  David Michelinie, who wrote some great Avengers comics, gives us a longer and much more interesting novel, that doesn't quite gel, but has some great scenes and some ideas I wish had been explored more.

We're doing the first Avengers novel, written by comic veteran Otto Binder...who may be a comics veteran but perhaps had never read an Avengers comic in his life.  It is a very weird thing.

We're taking a break from our normally scheduled program to do a special episode focusing on an Avengers focused issue of the 1970's Marvel fab club magazine FOOM!  It includes interviews with Avengers characters both fictional and real (Jarvis and Steve Englehart) and lots of tidbits that give a feeling of what Marvel was like in the early 1970's.  

The end of the Search for She-Hulk and the last Johns issue, where an Avenger dies, in one of the most confusing and confounding deaths in all Avengers lore.

We continue The Search for She-Hulk, including the return of Hawkeye to the team, and discuss the decompressed storytelling of this era.
