Fullmetal Alchemist is one of the best animes of all time. To celebrate its 20th anniversary, we're going to explain why. What is alchemy? What is automail? Who are the Homunculi? More importantly, why are there two different versions of FMA? Searnold will explain why, despite popular opinion, he prefers the first version to the more accurate adaptation called "Brotherhood." As usual, Zach will be confused. Debate and hilarity ensue.

It's the end of the Krakoan era! Probably! At least, Marvel's publicity department certainly wants you to think so. But in this episode of the Doombots Marvel Podcast, Searnold will explain why he doesn't believe that will happen. We'll also discuss the history of Krakoa, the sentient island the X-Men live on, including looking at one of the worst retcons of all time, "Deadly Genesis."

On this week's new Doombots Podcast, we're getting into the war between the mutants on Krakoa and the mysterious power-hungry superpowered Children of the Vault!

Spoiler alert! The internet has been all abuzz about Marvel's decision to kill off Ms. Marvel in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man. So, after spending last episode discussing Kindred in order to establish where Nick Spencer's run ended, this episode, we'll finally be discussing Zeb Wells and John Romita Jr's current run on Amazing Spider-Man. We'll learn why creating 2 fake kids is never the right plan. We'll discuss the value of mystery reveals. And we'll explain why Mary Jane should be a badass. All this, and Kamala Khan, too.

A lot of Spider-Man stories are straightforward. This one is not. Searnold and Zach sat down to talk about the latest run of Amazing Spider-Man by Zeb Wells and John Romita Jr because of Marvel's decision to *spoiler* Kamala Khan aka Ms. Marvel. But first we had to set up Spidey's current status quo, which meant explaining how Nick Spencer's run ended. And that meant explaining Kindred. And that meant explaining the Grey Goblin, which meant going back to his origins in J.M. Straczynski's run on Amazing Spider-Man circa 2001-2007. And how can we talk about JMS's run without talking about "Brand New Day", the story where Peter Parker and Mary Jane make a deal with Mephisto to erase their marriage. Is this starting to make sense? If not, you really need to listen to the episode.

It’s finally here! The 3-year anniversary of The Doombots Podcast! This whole new episode will feature a slew of cut content from past episodes and some original content. From overly emotional reactions, to discussions about the possible scourge of A.I. revolution, this episode has it all.

Secret Invasion is coming to the MCU, so we're going to talk about the comics it is ostensibly based on. We'll talk about what it was like to read the event live, Dan Slott's attempt to redeem Hank Pym, Brian Michael Bendis' crafty plans, and why the event was ultimately a failure. We'll also discuss a lot of really dumb names, featuring Game of Thrones!

This week, we're stepping away from the world of Marvel and into the world of Hyrule, with a breakdown/explainer of 'The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.' In fact, Zach's never played a single 'Zelda' game ever, so Searnold is giving a very long (yet still incredibly brief) rundown of Zelda lore and complex timelines.

Every Spider-Man Ever! That's how Marvel promoted the original Spiderverse comic, as a convergence of every iteration of Spiders-Mans that had ever existed across all media. This week, we'll take a look at who those are and talk about the threat to the web of life and destiny that brought them together. Which ones are still hanging around in the main Marvel universe, and why doesn't Miles get his own superhero identity? All these questions and more in this week's episode of the Doombots Marvel Podcast!

Deep in the heart of Texas, near the small town of Gumption, is one of the greatest and most unique tourists destinations in America -- at least, it used to be. The Mystery Flesh Pit National Park was a beacon for those looking for hiking, outdoor activities and trembling cosmic horror. This week, we delve into the mystery of the so-called Permian Basin Superorganism and how it got turned into a once-lucrative point of national interest.
