News: The Marvels, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and The Union is destroying post-Brexit Britain

Whole lot of Defenders this week, which could have been good but for the fact that it’s a terrible Scorpio story. Additionally, we wrap up the battle for Counter-Earth and the death of Jarella.

News: Sam Raimi, Black Widow, Disney+, The Marvels, Marvel implies the Eternals created China

Clea has sex with Ben Franklin! Except TWIST, it wasn’t Ben Franklin, it was actually an evil sorcerer. And TWIST, it kind of goes unaddressed that she was leaving Strange for him. Additionally, a bunch of firsts for X-men, and the first seven issues of Captain Britain. PLUS: The FF heads off to save Counter-Earth from Galactus.

BONUS: We talk about Birds of Prey. We liked it.

Who is that mysterious man whose origin includes dead parents, non-stop training, and an endless war on crime? No, not Batman. We’re talking about the blind one with the preternatural senses. No, not Daredevil. It’s The goddamn Shroud!

News: Thor gets his stuff back, Marvel makes a deal for Ultraman

Why is Monica getting off on the idea of her boyfriend saving a relative that died in the 19th Century? Because she’s fundamentally broken. Did you not realize that by now? Oh, yeah. Lady’s got some issues.

Also, T’Challa wears his costume to the grocery store in Georgia, and is surprised that people are looking at him weirdly.

WE HAVE RETURNED.

Yes, after a month in the wilderness, running naked and howling at the moon, the leadership boot camp finally asked us to leave. And so we’re back with another round of books from the seventies. Luke Cage fights himself! The Inhumans fight a cockroach! The Thing fights a giant spinning swastika! We fight the urge to laugh at Warkon!
