Heading back to Image comics this week, Zack and Chris give you a teaser into the world of invincible! Not only do you get plenty of analogs in this universe but a multiverse of the main character as well. We will intro the story of invincible itself and then launch into the famous Invincible War arc to scratch that multiverse itch. Hang on folks cause if you know Robert Kirkman, you know that nobody in his universe is actually, Invincible!

IT'S MORPHIN' TIME!!!! Make sure to bring your change this episode, as Zack and Chris discuss the coin-powered Mighty Morphin Power Rangers themselves! Zack takes most of the lead this round since Chris seems to have lost his inner child. We will discuss traitors, ancient rangers, shattered grids, and perhaps one of the coolest bad guys to grace the Ranger lore! This episode fits five so bring your friends.

It's a different kinda episode this week as Forgotten Heroes embarks on its first independent studio comic rundown. From the 1997 classic that was huge for representation but mixed results from fans, Zack and Chris discuss Todd McFarlane's Spawn! We follow our protagonist, Al Simmons, as he embarks on his antihero journey as an emissary from hell. You'd be wrong if you think there needs to be a multiverse for a discussion since, as you'll learn, there has always been Spawn. Gunslingers and War Heroes abound, not to mention a quick cameo from everyone's favorite broody teenager with a trust fund, if you like Satan this is the one for you!

With the coming storms of winter, Zack and Chris found it topical to discuss this week's character, Storm! From her humble beginnings as a street thief, Ororo has proven to be a fan favorite simply because of her longevity as a character. Groom street thief to vampire, goddess, and genie, there is little she hasn't done. You might wanna stay in your car for this one!

Welcome to a very special episode of The Forgotten Heroes! The puns are not exactly very strong with this one but the opinions are as Zack and Chris give you a rundown of their favorite characters! We discuss characters we love in comic books, as well as our favorite shows and movies. Not to mention we will hit the other side of it all by discussing our least favorites! From villains to retcons, events, and more!

This episode focuses on one of the most interesting family dynamics, cloning! If you think we're not gonna talk about multiple earths you would be dead wrong as Zack and Chris breakdown the 100 year-old-maple-sized family tree of Jean Grey and Scott Summers! Time hopping sons, prodigal daughters, and one of the most "sinister" father figures you'll ever hear about; grab a neck pillow and some hydration cause this one goes all out!

Is that an ace up your sleeve, or are you just as excited as Chris was for this episode? This week we talk about the card slangin', Cajun persuasion himself, Gambit! Zack and Chris have no need to go fishing for more material to talk about with this kinetic wielding badass as they discuss his incredibly wide variety of powers, not to mention his alternative forms! We will travel to meet a man out of time, an over-the-top Son/Sun, see double with the multiverse hopping Exiles, and a rare somewhat happy ending. Time to crack our knuckles as we deal out this kinetic powerhouse of an episode!

Welcome to an episode of The Forgotten Heroes brought to you on all fours, as episode we take a look at the animal on the outside, Beast! Zack and Chris look at several outcomes that put Hank McCoy as the alpha predator on multiple Earths. You'll find Beast is no understatement as your hosts discuss the obligatory time travel that seems to come with all X-Men arcs. From the only surviving race on a dead Earth, prophet status, an obligatory passing of the Sorcerer Supreme title, and a healthy dose of mutant-focused Eugenics. Make sure to bring your flea medication!

Fighting super-powered threats with just a bow and arrow is hard, but luckily Zack and Chris, with special archer "newbie" Nikki, have their trick arrow of different Hawkeyes for this week's episode! We will look at variants that are are honestly kind of beating a dead horse but just as deadly, medieval, and rebooted! And stay tuned for a slight debate of his.....clairvoyance?
