rant's over. 00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:28.559 Rant over. 00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:32.240 Uh, my my third favorite story was the Lois Lane and Mary Jane story. 00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:33.920 But I do have a problem with this story. 00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:34.799 I do too. 00:26:35.039 --> 00:26:38.799 So so the good thing about this story is that it is drawn by Jim Lee. 00:26:38.880 --> 00:26:42.720 And Jim Lee does not do a whole lot of interiors, but Jim Lee's a great artist. 00:26:42.960 --> 00:26:43.519 He's a great artist. 00:26:43.680 --> 00:26:44.880 That was the first thing I said when I opened it. 00:26:44.960 --> 00:26:46.720 It was like, oh, this is this is Jim Lee. 00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:48.000 Oh, this is some good art. 00:26:48.319 --> 00:26:51.920 However, this b begs the debate. 00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:57.200 Does good art override a bad to decent story? 00:26:57.359 --> 00:26:59.039 And that's kind of what this is. 00:26:59.119 --> 00:27:04.880 And I think that might be why this story ends up becoming my third favorite because Jim Lee's art alone. 00:27:05.440 --> 00:27:10.240 But there are good moments here, and it's really, really a sentinel has attacked. 00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:19.359 We don't know why, we don't know who or or what reason, but it's on a bridge, and Mary Jane and Lois Lane are, I guess, damsels in distress. 00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:20.880 Not I mean, kind of. 00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:27.839 They're like talking through it, and they're like, like, they're in a bus that's dangling from the bridge, and they're like, girl, you've been here before. 00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:28.880 She's like, mm-hmm. 00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:30.240 Like, this is normal for me. 00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:31.039 Oh, did you die? 00:27:31.200 --> 00:27:32.160 Oh, I've died a couple times. 00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:32.720 How about you? 00:27:33.039 --> 00:27:33.359 Multiple. 00:27:33.839 --> 00:27:36.000 Yeah, the multi-like they're just ch which is cute. 00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:37.279 I mean, it's like a cute girl. 00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:38.240 Yeah, yeah. 00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:47.039 And it is because I guess it's the only hope that we've had that Peter Parker and Mary Jane might be married somewhere out there in the multiverse. 00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:47.759 I guess so. 00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:49.920 Yeah, that's the only thing we'll get. 00:27:50.160 --> 00:27:52.079 But so I guess there's that. 00:27:52.240 --> 00:28:01.359 But my biggest flaw with this story is, yeah, um, and and if you're going to do a story about Lois Lane and Mary Jane, like you kind of have to make Superman Spider-Man background characters. 00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:01.920 And that's fine. 00:28:02.319 --> 00:28:02.720 That's fine. 00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:03.599 That's understandable. 00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:08.000 And it's okay to have a story focused around these their significant others. 00:28:08.240 --> 00:28:08.720 Right. 00:28:09.039 --> 00:28:22.000 But the problem is that Superman and Spider-Man are so sidelined in this stick this story that a C-list character steals their spotlight and destroys the Sentinel that neither one of them could do. 00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:25.039 And the C-list character is freaking Gambit. 00:28:25.200 --> 00:28:25.519 Yes. 00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:28.319 And he gets a freaking splash page. 00:28:28.559 --> 00:28:30.400 A two-page splash panel. 00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:34.079 They turn the it's a page turn, and he's just, it's this amazing artwork. 00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:36.960 And the first thing I said was, Oh, so Jim Lee does a gambit. 00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:39.119 I guess Jim Lee really wanted to draw Gambit this time. 00:28:39.440 --> 00:28:43.119 Yeah, I think Jim Lee's like, oh, I haven't drawn the X-Men in 30 years. 00:28:43.359 --> 00:28:43.519 Yeah. 00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:45.119 What is what's the first thing I want to do? 00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:46.000 I want to do Gambit. 00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:46.720 Yeah, so I'm gonna do that. 00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:51.440 It's the only, and if I remember correctly, it's there's only two splash pages in this whole book. 00:28:51.599 --> 00:28:54.640 The first one is in the main story, and the second one is the gambit. 00:28:55.119 --> 00:28:56.640 Is that I'm trying to think if there's any more. 00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:00.559 I think that's the only splash page where it's on both pages. 00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:06.559 Because there is one page, uh, especially in the Jonathan Kent, Ben Parker story, where it is the full page. 00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:10.000 But yeah, I think this those are the only two, yeah, you're probably right. 00:29:10.079 --> 00:29:14.000 But yeah, it's a full splash page of Gambit looking, I mean, looks badass. 00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:14.240 Yeah. 00:29:14.400 --> 00:29:16.720 But it's like, this is a Spider-Man Superman book. 00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:19.599 Why isn't Jim Lee drawing Spider-Man and Superman looking awesome? 00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:19.839 Yes. 00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:24.240 Like, why aren't they why isn't there some big splash of them taking down the sentinel that looks super sick? 00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:24.640 Right. 00:29:24.799 --> 00:29:25.759 That's what we all want. 00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:26.720 Not Gambit. 00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:29.039 Oh, oh man, I hope Gambit gets his splash. 00:29:29.759 --> 00:29:30.160 Whatever. 00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:30.480 Yeah. 00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:30.640 Okay. 00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:31.920 Anyway, thanks, Jim Lee. 00:29:32.480 --> 00:29:34.880 So moving on, story number four. 00:29:36.079 --> 00:29:37.359 That was your third, right? 00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:38.480 Yes, that was my third. 00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:41.759 For me, my fourth was that in Lewis Lane. 00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:44.880 So my fourth was the Superboy in Spider-Man 2999. 00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:45.599 So we've talked about that. 00:29:45.839 --> 00:29:46.480 We've talked about that, yep. 00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:47.039 So moving

on. 00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:48.319 Why was that your fourth? 00:29:48.480 --> 00:29:49.599 Do you want to do you wanna dive? 00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:51.599 Is it just because Superman was kind of sideless? 00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:53.279 Superman was kind of sidelined. 00:29:53.359 --> 00:29:56.799 It really was more of a Batman Beyond Spider-Man 2099 story. 00:29:57.039 --> 00:29:57.759 Why was he skinny? 00:29:57.839 --> 00:29:58.799 Superman was very skinny. 00:29:59.200 --> 00:30:11.680 Because um, so there's a Silver Age series where Super Superboy, why well Superman while he's young, um, he travels back into he travels into the future with the Legion of Superheroes. 00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:13.839 There's an old cartoon about this. 00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:19.119 Um But Superman travels into the future and he joins the League of Superheroes for a little bit. 00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:24.400 He goes on adventures with them, and really really it's a silver age thing. 00:30:24.799 --> 00:30:28.240 Because they were big on time travel and future stuff at the time. 00:30:28.400 --> 00:30:28.559 Yeah. 00:30:28.799 --> 00:30:33.839 So that's it, because it's just a futuristic story, so that's why he ended up as Superboy in this story. 00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:34.400 I got it. 00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:34.640 Yeah. 00:30:34.799 --> 00:30:40.880 So really not uh not a Superboy story, not a Superman story, but a Spider-Man 2099 and Batman Beyond. 00:30:40.960 --> 00:30:41.119 Yeah. 00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:43.039 So that's why it gets down there. 00:30:43.279 --> 00:30:45.519 So that was your That was number four for me. 00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:47.759 That was number four for you, okay, and mine was Losley Mary J. 00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:48.000 Yeah. 00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:48.319 Number five. 00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:51.920 Number five was Superboy Prime and Amazing Spider-Man. 00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:54.000 Okay, so both of us have this as number five. 00:30:54.240 --> 00:30:55.359 Yeah, we both have it as five. 00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:55.759 Okay. 00:30:56.319 --> 00:30:57.279 Let me ask you why. 00:30:57.440 --> 00:30:58.720 Why is it number five for you? 00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:03.599 Um I so first of all, I like the story premise premise. 00:31:03.839 --> 00:31:06.000 I think it's really cool that it's all like a fourth wall break. 00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:08.880 And I didn't even know much about Superboy until you told me. 00:31:09.200 --> 00:31:12.559 Because I was like, oh, okay, so he's a you know, he's a fourth wall breaking character. 00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:15.279 And I think that's cool because he he there's some great quotes in this book. 00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:15.920 Yes, there is. 00:31:16.079 --> 00:31:23.039 There's the one where it's like, um, yeah, your entire your entire life story is in a long box in my attic. 00:31:23.519 --> 00:31:24.640 That's such a cool line. 00:31:24.720 --> 00:31:25.839 Like, that's such a great line. 00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:27.759 And then like there there was another one. 00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:30.559 Um maybe it was in a different yeah, bruh. 00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:32.319 Like, he's gotta take the L. 00:31:32.720 --> 00:31:33.200 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:46.720 Um, but uh the only reason was because um this also falls into the category of why a lot of these stories didn't didn't get me to be continued. 00:31:46.960 --> 00:31:50.079 To be continued, which we'll I we we I think we both we have, we don't know. 00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:53.039 I don't know if we we agree, but I think we agree. 00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:53.759 I think we do. 00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:58.000 Um it falls into that, and also it it's a lot going on. 00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:03.279 It gets it it once they kind of get to the uh who's the guy that they're fighting in the high evolution. 00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:07.200 The high evolutionary, once they run into him, it's just kind of like all over the place. 00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:08.319 And I kind of got lost. 00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:08.720 Yeah. 00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:11.039 Yeah, I kind of I kind of got lost right there. 00:32:11.279 --> 00:32:19.599 It's yeah, and for me, I don't know why High Evolutionary is the main villain between um we're gonna call them multiverses. 00:32:19.680 --> 00:32:32.640 It's comic books, and because Superboy Prime is like stuck in this universe where he can only go between comic books, he can't go outside of comic books, yeah, kinda, and high evolutionary for some reason is the villain, but that doesn't make any sense to me. 00:32:33.279 --> 00:32:45.279 Um because high evolutionary is more focused on well, evolution, and why is he in, let's say, like a a blank space? 00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:50.559 Because that's a I guess that's a bad choice of words, but like in between multiverses. 00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:51.279 Why is he there? 00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:53.119 He has nothing to do with multiverse stuff. 00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:55.839 So that was my problem, but you're right. 00:32:56.000 --> 00:32:59.279 So it's cool when it begins, and the art is great for that story. 00:32:59.680 --> 00:33:00.319 He's got the black suit. 00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:04.240 I love that he's got the I don't know if it's the symbiote or if it's I think it's just the cloth one. 00:33:04.400 --> 00:33:05.839 Okay, yeah, because he was talking to it. 00:33:05.920 --> 00:33:07.440 And Spider Man's like, why are you talking to it? 00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:11.440 Yeah, yeah, because but I wish that it was the symbiote because it'd have been like, oh, you don't know yet. 00:33:11.599 --> 00:33:11.680 Right. 00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:12.960 You know, and he's like, No what? 00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:13.920 Uh, you'll figure it out. 00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:14.640 Right, right, right. 00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:17.039 You know, like that would have been cool, but you know. 00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:23.519 Yeah, because Superboy Prime, I was telling Paul, in case

you're not familiar with Superboy Prime, got sucked in. 00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:28.400 He's from our world where there are no superheroes, and we just read about their lives in comic books. 00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:28.799 Yeah. 00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:40.400 And he gets sucked into a comic book, and I can't remember exactly how, so maybe somebody in the comment section somewhere on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, wherever you listen, yes, uh, can comment and correct us. 00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:48.079 But he gets sucked into a comic book, and he his name's Clark Kent, so he ends up getting the powers of Superman in this comic book universe. 00:33:48.319 --> 00:33:51.359 So he can also break the fourth wall because he knows he's in a comic book. 00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:52.000 Right. 00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:57.200 But my point with that is to say it's it gets messy. 00:33:57.599 --> 00:33:58.400 It really does. 00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:04.559 And for people who like you who don't know who Superboy Prime is, that can get confusing. 00:34:04.720 --> 00:34:06.480 Like, why are they jumping between comic books? 00:34:06.799 --> 00:34:13.920 Cool fourth wall moment, cool tie back to the 80s when both of these characters were cool, but yeah, why? 00:34:14.079 --> 00:34:14.719 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:34:14.960 --> 00:34:17.519 So it was just a mid story, it was just yeah, it was mid. 00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:21.119 And there's a lot of like modern day slang in this stuff. 00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:24.000 Yeah, because he says like he sang bruh a lot. 00:34:24.239 --> 00:34:25.840 He says like take the L. 00:34:26.000 --> 00:34:26.239 Yeah. 00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:31.599 He says something else that was like, oh, so like this is for the cool the kids nowadays. 00:34:31.679 --> 00:34:31.760 Yeah. 00:34:32.719 --> 00:34:33.920 And I don't like when comics do that. 00:34:34.079 --> 00:34:34.559 I don't either. 00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:37.679 I it I don't like brain rotten my comics. 00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:41.679 But also, like, did they did our books kind of have that?

He got Spider-Man looking like an absolute monster. 00:39:25.280 --> 00:39:25.840 This is great. 00:39:26.000 --> 00:39:28.639 And it's like, but that's not Spider-Man, that's Carnage. 00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:33.039 Yeah, and and the Superman watch failing because it has to have a system update. 00:39:33.360 --> 00:39:35.519 Yeah, it has to have a system update, and he's like, oh fuh. 00:39:36.239 --> 00:39:37.039 Oh fuge. 00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:38.000 And he dies. 00:39:38.239 --> 00:39:39.519 And I didn't say fudge. 00:39:39.679 --> 00:39:41.679 Yeah, and then he then literally Carnage kills him. 00:39:41.760 --> 00:39:44.480 The paper goes live, and the guy is still on the couch dead. 00:39:44.719 --> 00:39:46.079 Um, and that's it. 00:39:46.239 --> 00:39:46.800 That is it. 00:39:46.960 --> 00:39:49.280 It's literally like, why? 00:39:49.760 --> 00:39:52.239 Which brings us to our ultimate conversation. 00:39:52.559 --> 00:40:00.960 Yeah, I think I think, yeah, and again, we have not like I'm excited to talk to you about this because I was like, I have the comment about the whole book as a whole, but I don't want to say it. 00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:02.960 And he goes, I and you said like I do too. 00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:04.239 Yeah, let's save it. 00:40:04.480 --> 00:40:05.440 Well, we're gonna say it now. 00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:06.079 So let's say it. 00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:12.320 So um I think ever there's no need to have this many stories in the book because all of them are cut short. 00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:14.320 All of them, yes, exactly. 00:40:14.480 --> 00:40:16.639 All of these stories suffer from being too short. 00:40:16.800 --> 00:40:17.360 Yes. 00:40:17.840 --> 00:40:27.760

And if even the main story, even the main story, we both put it number one, it was longer than the rest of the stories, but they're all there's no time for to flesh any of this out. 00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:40.400 There's no if you wanted to do honestly, you know, people would buy if you did DC Marvel crossovers, you gave each one of these a 30-page comic, people would buy these issues. 00:40:40.639 --> 00:40:41.679 Oh, I I I agree. 00:40:41.760 --> 00:40:45.920 Yeah, but especially scalpers who are like, this is gonna be what something's gonna be or something. 00:40:46.000 --> 00:40:47.199 We're gonna buy it all and tell it. 00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:54.639 But give give each of these teams a full-length story to tell the story, and it would have been ten times better. 00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:57.360 But that's the problem this book lacks, in my opinion. 00:40:57.519 --> 00:41:16.320 Yeah, and the same thing that the when they did the Batman Deadpool story, there was only one of those stories that really I think had time to flesh out in those, and it really would have helped each one of these to have more time to flesh out because none of this should have been I'm not asking for a full on arc, though that would be amazing for something like this. 00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:23.840 I'd love that, but even a one, one, a full one-shot would really give this time to breathe. 00:41:24.079 --> 00:41:25.599 Yeah, I that's that's what I think. 00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:28.559 I think the the first story should have been the whole book. 00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:28.880 Yeah. 00:41:29.039 --> 00:41:32.000 Especially if you're gonna have a jumbo-sized book, make it a bigger story. 00:41:32.079 --> 00:41:45.599 Yeah, but there's I don't think there's any need to tell all of these stories because again, the reason like you know, Jonathan Kent and Ben Parker was your second story, it was my sixth because I I just I don't know. 00:41:45.679 --> 00:41:47.119 It it was cut short. 00:41:47.280 --> 00:41:47.599 It was. 00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:50.800 It was just like, okay, they're doing this thing, they saved somebody and it's over. 00:41:50.880 --> 00:41:51.119 Yeah. 00:41:51.280 --> 00:41:54.800 And then there's like, you know, the like um, what is it? 00:41:54.880 --> 00:41:57.760 Like the the Superboy, the Superboy Prime and Spider-Man. 00:41:57.920 --> 00:42:02.480 The first thing I said was um like when it ended, I was like, oh, that's it. 00:42:02.639 --> 00:42:03.119 Yep, you did. 00:42:03.280 --> 00:42:05.119 That was literally the first thing I said was like, oh, it's over already. 00:42:05.199 --> 00:42:05.360 Yeah. 00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:10.880 It it's just as soon as the story starts to go somewhere, it literally just stops, like a train hitting a wall. 00:42:11.119 --> 00:42:12.159 We can't go over that page count. 00:42:12.239 --> 00:42:13.440 Yep, we can't go over the page count. 00:42:13.519 --> 00:42:21.599 And like, you know, I just think that you know, stories like Jimmy Olsen and Carnage is not necessary. 00:42:21.840 --> 00:42:32.079 No, you know, like all these other stories are cool, but give us a Superman Spider-Man book and just be like, if if I was in the office when they were making this, the first thing I would say was is we don't need all these stories. 00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:32.480 No. 00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:34.000 We need like maybe two. 00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:34.480 Right. 00:42:34.639 --> 00:42:38.960 You could have a small story at the very end, but there the keep this Superman Spider-Man. 00:42:39.119 --> 00:42:41.119 Because the rest of these stories are not Superman Spider-Man. 00:42:41.199 --> 00:42:51.280 It's like, you know, it's Jonathan Kent and Ben Parker, it's Lois Lane and Mary Jane, or it's alternate Spider-Man and Alternate Superman, or you know, another alternate Spider-Man, another alternate Superman. 00:42:51.440 --> 00:42:52.960 Well, what about Punisher and Power Girl? 00:42:53.039 --> 00:42:55.599 Which honestly, like, I like that story, and I rated it third. 00:42:55.679 --> 00:42:56.639 I'm kind of regretting that. 00:42:56.880 --> 00:42:57.599 Because of Paul. 00:42:57.760 --> 00:43:01.039 Well, not only that, but because like, why Punisher and Power Girl? 00:43:01.119 --> 00:43:01.280 Yeah. 00:43:01.440 --> 00:43:07.679 They're just uh like it's like it's like they're more concerned with like okay, it it kind of feels like Ultimate Spider-Man a little bit. 00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:11.920 They're concerned with all the other toys, but not the main toys that should be working together, right? 00:43:12.079 --> 00:43:14.000 It's like, well, what about this character and this character? 00:43:14.159 --> 00:43:16.000 What what how would these two characters interact? 00:43:16.079 --> 00:43:21.440 It's like focus on how Spider-Man and Superman would interact, and all the other characters can interact within their story. 00:43:21.679 --> 00:43:26.320 You and I have have that's a good way to put it, all your toys. 00:43:26.480 --> 00:43:33.440 But you and I have never sat down and had a conversation and said, Man, what would Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson do if they ever met each other? 00:43:33.679 --> 00:43:33.920 Yeah. 00:43:34.159 --> 00:43:39.599 We have always if we've talked, it's always been what would Spider-Man and Superman do if they met? 00:43:39.760 --> 00:43:39.920 Yeah. 00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:46.239 We've never said, man, one thing I really wish I had from DC and Marvel is a Jimmy Olsen carnage story. 00:43:46.400 --> 00:43:46.639 Yeah. 00:43:46.719 --> 00:43:47.360 That's what I mean. 00:43:47.440 --> 00:43:49.199 These are stories that nobody has ever asked. 00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:51.280 The Batman Beyond the Spider-Man 2099. 00:43:51.679 --> 00:43:52.480 That's the one I've been asking for. 00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:53.440 We have been asking for that. 00:43:55.679 --> 00:43:56.239 Its own book. 00:43:56.400 --> 00:43:56.719 Yeah. 00:43:56.960 --> 00:43:59.360

But but these other stories, nobody's ever. 00:44:00.079 --> 00:44:01.440 And I know that's the argument. 00:44:01.599 --> 00:44:02.639 Nobody asked for this. 00:44:02.880 --> 00:44:03.199 Yeah. 00:44:03.519 --> 00:44:05.519 But we we did. 00:44:05.599 --> 00:44:08.880 And and that doesn't mean that it can't be a good story if nobody asked for it. 00:44:09.039 --> 00:44:09.280 Right. 00:44:09.599 --> 00:44:12.559 But the story we want is the story we got. 00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:14.719 We j you get it's like a one and done. 00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:15.199 Right. 00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:21.119 And it's like we could have spent the time reading all of these, like you know, other seven other stories. 00:44:21.199 --> 00:44:26.880 You get the first one, but then the other seven, it's like that could have been more of the first one, which we both liked a lot of. 00:44:27.280 --> 00:44:27.840 I don't know. 00:44:27.920 --> 00:44:36.639 I just I So since they started doing these Marvel DC crossovers last year with Batman and Deadpool, they've done Batman and Deadpool, Deadpool and Batman. 00:44:36.719 --> 00:44:41.519 They've done a Flash and Fantastic Four that's only on digital. 00:44:42.000 --> 00:44:42.960 Oh, I didn't even know they did that. 00:44:43.119 --> 00:44:46.000 Yeah, and they did a Thor and Shazam that's also only on digital. 00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:47.599 Okay, didn't know that either. 00:44:48.559 --> 00:44:50.639 And then of course Superman Spider-Man. 00:44:50.880 --> 00:44:51.039 Yeah. 00:44:51.199 --> 00:44:54.719 And all of these, all of these stories suffer from being too short. 00:44:54.880 --> 00:45:05.280 And another problem I have with these stories is something that I remember reading in a comic a long time ago when they did the original crossovers, but I've not quite been able to find what issue it appears in. 00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:10.480 But they never explain they they just assume now that these characters live in the same universe. 00:45:10.800 --> 00:45:14.960 Yeah, they just they're just like Spider-Man's all of a sudden in Metropolis. 00:45:15.119 --> 00:45:15.360 Right. 00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:15.760 Right? 00:45:15.920 --> 00:45:22.480 Or Spider-Man 2099 is all of a sudden in Gotham 2099, or what or whatever year it 2039 or whatever even yeah it is. 00:45:22.960 --> 00:45:29.039 Yeah, it's just it's like they're taking one person and just like throwing it in the other air in their book, and then it's just like, yep, figure it out. 00:45:29.119 --> 00:45:38.639 Yeah, and I and I wish if a story had more time to breathe, which I wish these did, you could explain why is this the same universe now? 00:45:38.960 --> 00:45:44.960 Is this an alternate universe where these just characters just exist in the same universe but have never interacted until this point? 00:45:45.599 --> 00:45:46.559 I find that hard to believe. 00:45:46.880 --> 00:45:56.800 And like I I want to take a little side tangent for a minute because um one of

the books I sat out, we have a little all of our books are sitting around, is the Marvel team up Invincible Spider-Man. 00:45:56.960 --> 00:45:57.119 Yes. 00:45:57.440 --> 00:46:00.880 Um, real quick because like um as a crossover done, right? 00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:01.519 It was a crossover. 00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:04.719 Yeah, it was a very good crossover because it was Invincible. 00:46:04.800 --> 00:46:10.800 It's it's from his book where he goes into Spider-Man's universe, but in the Invincible book, it's just like one panel. 00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:11.119 Right. 00:46:11.280 --> 00:46:16.320 But this, it's like he's in there, the door closes, and Invincible's talking to Spider-Man, like, hey, like what's going on? 00:46:16.400 --> 00:46:19.199 And he helps Spider-Man out and they kind of talk it out. 00:46:19.280 --> 00:46:32.480 But it's so good because it feels like it's it's it feels like they're welcoming Invincible into the universe, and he kind of fits in a little bit, but also doesn't, and they're kind of talking about stuff, and Spider-Man's like, well, you know, this is kind of how I look at being a hero. 00:46:32.639 --> 00:46:35.039 Like, that's that's what I feel like this should have been. 00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:35.679 Yes, right. 00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:36.159 I agree. 00:46:36.320 --> 00:46:40.880 And I would love to see like you know, Peter learn some stuff from Superman, but also Superman learned some stuff from Peter. 00:46:41.039 --> 00:46:41.199 Right. 00:46:41.360 --> 00:46:46.000 Like I think that that that would be really cool, but again, it it it was so rushed, and I hate that. 00:46:46.079 --> 00:47:05.199 Like, I hate that we're rushing it because um, as I mentioned earlier, my favorite crossover is Spider-Man Batman because they do the little trope of like the villain swapping, but at the same time, you get to see the villains work together, and you actually see them like Carnage talks to Joker about like, oh, like why are you doing all this nonsense? 00:47:05.280 --> 00:47:07.039 Like just kill him and just be done with it. 00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:10.320 Yeah, you know, and then you see like Batman and Spider-Man kind of talk. 00:47:10.400 --> 00:47:15.920 It it it fleshes those moments out more that this book doesn't have time to do because it's so quick, right? 00:47:16.079 --> 00:47:16.400 You know? 00:47:16.800 --> 00:47:19.360 So that's my opinion on it personally. 00:47:19.840 --> 00:47:26.880 It is, and honestly, I guess the question is, is it worth$9.99? 00:47:28.719 --> 00:47:31.360 You know, I think because we're getting what eight stories? 00:47:31.679 --> 00:47:31.840 Yeah. 00:47:32.079 --> 00:47:33.679 That's almost a dollar a story. 00:47:36.880 --> 00:47:38.960 I mean, it's not bad. 00:47:39.199 --> 00:47:44.079 You know, when I bought I compared this to Venom 200 because that was what,$9.99 when it came out? 00:47:44.239 --> 00:47:48.079 And that was a couple that was four last years. 00:47:48.559 -->

00:47:49.360 Four or five years ago? 00:47:49.519 --> 00:47:49.840 Oh wow. 00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:50.639 Yeah, that was a long time ago. 00:47:50.880 --> 00:47:52.320 Venom 200's been out for a long time. 00:47:52.559 --> 00:47:53.760 Um that was a long time ago. 00:47:53.920 --> 00:47:57.679 Um, but it was like, you know, a big finale and it was worth it. 00:47:57.920 --> 00:48:02.159 Especially me who bought all 20 variants and spent$300 at the comic book store that day. 00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:08.559 Um, but uh I don't uh what do you think? 00:48:09.199 --> 00:48:18.400 I gave I give this book for all the hype it had, for all the excitement I had for it, I still love every cover. 00:48:18.719 --> 00:48:20.719 I give it a solid seven out of ten. 00:48:21.039 --> 00:48:21.199 Okay. 00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:26.000 So I say, would I pay$9.99 for it again? 00:48:26.239 --> 00:48:27.199 Probably not. 00:48:27.440 --> 00:48:28.719 Would I pay five dollars? 00:48:28.960 --> 00:48:30.159 Sure, I'll pay five dollars. 00:48:30.559 --> 00:48:33.840 But ten dollars can go a long way in today's world, kind of. 00:48:34.079 --> 00:48:36.079 It could buy you a gallon of milk and that's pretty much it. 00:48:36.320 --> 00:48:38.800 But yeah, yeah, it's a third of my gas state. 00:48:38.960 --> 00:48:40.079 Yeah, it's a third of the gas, yeah. 00:48:40.320 --> 00:48:42.719 So yeah, I would pay five dollars for it. 00:48:42.800 --> 00:48:44.639 I don't think I would pay$9.99 for it. 00:48:44.800 --> 00:48:46.239 Yeah, it's it was okay. 00:48:46.559 --> 00:48:47.280 Because yeah. 00:48:47.599 --> 00:48:49.360 Not bad, not great. 00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:50.480 Just okay. 00:48:50.880 --> 00:48:53.679 Is it is it bad that I think the covers are better than the actual book? 00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:55.360 Oh, I I'm thinking that right now. 00:48:55.519 --> 00:49:01.840 Like we're both looking at our covers, and I'm just like, I I'm getting more enjoyment looking at the cover art than I was actually reading the book. 00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:02.159 Yeah. 00:49:02.320 --> 00:49:03.840 Which is interesting. 00:49:04.159 --> 00:49:15.519 It is, it is a let let the lotto do a inside story of just the black suit and Superman in his black costume coming back, and they're both kind of like a little bit darker. 00:49:15.760 --> 00:49:16.239 Yeah, yeah. 00:49:16.480 --> 00:49:18.480 But also, we're getting a part two to this. 00:49:18.719 --> 00:49:21.679 We are, so maybe the Marvel version will be better. 00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:34.480 Maybe that hurts that hurts because I think of what Marvel has done with Spider-Man so far, and I'm like, no, we're definitely, we are definitely, I'm gonna put money on it now. 00:49:34.639 --> 00:49:38.079 We are definitely going to get Paul in that story somehow. 00:49:38.320 --> 00:49:38.800 How much do you want?

more about Punisher being in the film than they have the Hulk. 00:59:54.719 --> 01:00:00.400 So I think I really think Bruce Banner will have a small role, and I think the Punisher will have a much bigger role. 01:00:00.719 --> 01:00:01.039 I hope. 01:00:01.119 --> 01:00:04.000 I would rather see him have a bigger role than than Hulk. 01:00:04.239 --> 01:00:08.320 And and uh if it's Hulk, I I don't want smart Hulk, I want Monster Hulk. 01:00:08.559 --> 01:00:16.320 I'm ready to see yeah, I'm ready to see Rage Out Hulk because you know, I just uh But unfortunately I think we are gonna get Professor Hulk again. 01:00:16.480 --> 01:00:22.159 Yeah, probably he's got the I notice he's got the thing on his hand that lets him transform that was he wore in She-Hulk, I think. 01:00:22.559 --> 01:00:25.119 Yeah, because it he can transform with that thing. 01:00:25.440 --> 01:00:25.679 Right. 01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:35.360 So I think I think we're gonna get Professor Hulk because I think they're gonna do the panel where Hulk remembers that Spider-Man is Peter Parker, but Bruce Banner does not. 01:00:35.599 --> 01:00:38.239 Well, but also when he's Professor Hulk, he's not a different personality. 01:00:38.320 --> 01:00:39.280 He's still Bruce Banner. 01:00:39.519 --> 01:00:42.079 That's true, but but in the panel, Hulk does remember. 01:00:42.719 --> 01:00:44.159 Yeah, I've seen that comic panel. 01:00:44.320 --> 01:00:44.639 Yeah, yeah. 01:00:44.880 --> 01:00:47.599 I think I that would be cool, and I hope that we get Monster. 01:00:47.920 --> 01:00:50.079 I just I just read I'd rather we have Monster Hulk. 01:00:50.320 --> 01:00:51.599 Yeah, I don't like Professor Hulk. 01:00:51.840 --> 01:00:59.440 Um something we are getting though, in in terms of monstrosity, is we're doing the Spider-Man story, the other. 01:00:59.760 --> 01:01:04.559 And if you are not familiar with this storyline, this is where Spider-Man's powers begin to mutate. 01:01:04.719 --> 01:01:04.960 Yes. 01:01:05.119 --> 01:01:08.800 And he begins to wake up in a cocoon and he's like, What's happening? 01:01:08.880 --> 01:01:10.800 And his he doesn't need his web shooters anymore. 01:01:10.880 --> 01:01:12.000 He's got natural webbing. 01:01:12.320 --> 01:01:14.480 Is this are we getting back into Sam Raimi films? 01:01:14.559 --> 01:01:24.480 No, my friend, we are getting Man Spider, which I'm very excited to see because I have never thought we would I never even I never even put that to like No put that in the movie box. 01:01:25.280 --> 01:01:37.360 You know, it was just like that was a story that I never it's it's it's one of my favorite stories because that's a great arc, is when he turns into man spider, but it was an arc that I never was like, oh, this would be a cool movie, right? 01:01:37.440 --> 01:01:39.679 You know, it's just like it's just like oh this is the arc, you know. 01:01:39.920 --> 01:01:48.960 But but that brings into view that this Spider-Man movie seems very comic

film, but right now it's looking like the best one that Marvel's dropped. 01:12:22.640 --> 01:12:23.520 I'll agree with that. 01:12:23.680 --> 01:12:23.920 You know? 01:12:24.079 --> 01:12:25.199 Now, No Way Home is good. 01:12:25.279 --> 01:12:28.880 I like No Way Home a lot, but I think No Way Home just hits a lot of nostalgia. 01:12:29.119 --> 01:12:30.319 That I think that's what I think. 01:12:30.399 --> 01:12:33.680 Because I like No Way Home, but it's it's a big nostalgia. 01:12:33.920 --> 01:12:35.600 That's that's what drives the whole film. 01:12:35.760 --> 01:12:48.159 I think that's what's going to be the problem when Secret Wars rolls around, because we're gonna get Hugh Jackman, we may get Toby McGuire, we may get all these like nostalgia actors, and I think that's what's driving Doomsday right now, too. 01:12:48.319 --> 01:12:49.760 This is not what we plan on talking about. 01:12:50.000 --> 01:12:50.720 That's okay, no, no, no. 01:12:50.720 --> 01:12:50.960 Yeah, yeah. 01:12:52.079 --> 01:12:59.840 I think that's what's driving Doomsday right now, too, is they're banking on the X-Men's return, probably for the last time until they reboot it again. 01:13:00.159 --> 01:13:04.079 Um and I think that's what they're I I think that's what they're banking on. 01:13:04.159 --> 01:13:06.720 That's that was the trailer I think that did the best. 01:13:06.800 --> 01:13:13.920 That's what that's what hyped me up more, was like, yo, the X-Men, all that's crazy, and they're getting Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen, and they're getting all these guys. 01:13:14.079 --> 01:13:14.720 That's awesome. 01:13:14.880 --> 01:13:15.680 Yeah, yeah. 01:13:16.000 --> 01:13:19.760 But then I kind of stepped back and I was like, that's really what they're banking on. 01:13:19.840 --> 01:13:20.800 And Robert Downe Jr. 01:13:20.960 --> 01:13:22.319 as Doctor Doom, yeah, Chris. 01:13:22.640 --> 01:13:25.760 Caps comes back, Chris Himsworth is coming back. 01:13:26.239 --> 01:13:27.840 So Scarlett Johansson though. 01:13:28.239 --> 01:13:29.199 Yeah, no, she's dead. 01:13:29.840 --> 01:13:31.199 Yeah, she probably will somehow. 01:13:31.439 --> 01:13:31.600 Yeah. 01:13:31.760 --> 01:13:32.319 Paul Rabbins. 01:13:32.640 --> 01:13:33.520 Paul Rabbins in there. 01:13:33.760 --> 01:13:35.439 So I I think that's the problem. 01:13:35.760 --> 01:13:37.520 Are you worried about how they filmed Doomsday?

01:17:33.119 --> 01:17:34.079 I thought they had eight usually. 01:17:34.319 --> 01:17:36.319 They might be only eight in eight. 01:17:36.720 --> 01:17:44.319 Um you know, one thing I want to talk about before we talk about and review this season so far, which I guess we're at the midpoint, which is kind of crazy to think about. 01:17:44.479 --> 01:17:44.880 Is it really? 01:17:44.960 --> 01:17:45.439 Oh wow, okay. 01:17:45.760 --> 01:17:47.840 If there's only eight episodes and episode four came out today. 01:17:48.000 --> 01:17:49.279 Yeah, I guess we're already halfway through. 01:17:49.359 --> 01:17:50.399 They dropped three on the first day. 01:17:50.479 --> 01:17:51.520 Yeah, that was a lot, yeah. 01:17:51.840 --> 01:17:58.319 So one thing I want to talk about real quick is how stacked this voice acting cast is. 01:17:59.039 --> 01:18:00.239 This has J.K. 01:18:00.399 --> 01:18:01.439 Simmons, Stephen Ewan. 01:18:01.600 --> 01:18:04.079 I mean, you have, but you also have Peter Coleman. 01:18:04.159 --> 01:18:05.359 Yeah Optimus Prime. 01:18:05.600 --> 01:18:08.720 Optimus Prime and we didn't play this time. 01:18:09.439 --> 01:18:10.560 Or last time. 01:18:11.920 --> 01:18:18.399 But but um, I mean, the voice cast alone, like the animation, I know it gets harped on a lot. 01:18:18.479 --> 01:18:18.560 Yeah. 01:18:18.640 --> 01:18:19.520 And you've got something to talk about. 01:18:20.239 --> 01:18:22.560 I had a couple animation notes for the show for sure. 01:18:22.880 --> 01:18:29.760 But but the voice acting alone, like I hope because Skybound Image is doing um the Transformer G.I. 01:18:29.840 --> 01:18:31.520 Joe series in the next couple of years. 01:18:31.680 --> 01:18:35.439 I hope that voice acting cat cast is just a stack. 01:18:35.520 --> 01:18:37.840 And I hope Peter Cullen is the voice of Optimus in that. 01:18:38.399 --> 01:18:39.680 Oh, he's gonna, he's gonna have to be. 01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:40.319 I hope he is. 01:18:40.479 --> 01:18:41.600 There's no way they wouldn't. 01:18:41.840 --> 01:18:47.840 Um But you know, that's what that's what I hope continues because that's what makes

this show. 01:18:48.159 --> 01:18:52.079 Well, the story is great, of course, but the voice acting is also like on point perfect. 01:18:52.239 --> 01:18:52.640 Yeah. 01:18:52.880 --> 01:18:55.760 So let's get into first four episodes. 01:18:56.000 --> 01:18:57.119 Yes, the first four episodes. 01:18:57.279 --> 01:19:02.640 So, real quick, um, I I know you said that I uh am not re I haven't read it. 01:19:02.800 --> 01:19:04.000 Um there's a reason why. 01:19:04.159 --> 01:19:07.680 I I didn't really know much about Invincible until the show came out. 01:19:07.840 --> 01:19:12.319 I watched the sh first when season two came out, I watched it. 01:19:12.479 --> 01:19:15.279 Well, sorry, when season one was out, I watched the entire show. 01:19:15.359 --> 01:19:16.399 I did not like it. 01:19:16.640 --> 01:19:17.039 Really? 01:19:17.199 --> 01:19:18.159 Yes, I did not like it. 01:19:18.239 --> 01:19:25.199 It just I I couldn't get into the world because everything I felt like everything was so like, oh, this is just off-brand this character, this is just off-brand that character. 01:19:25.439 --> 01:19:26.159 Fair enough, you know. 01:19:26.319 --> 01:19:29.680 Um, but then when season two came out, I was like, I need to give it a shot again. 01:19:29.840 --> 01:19:31.760 Like it looks good, everybody's talking about it. 01:19:31.840 --> 01:19:32.640 Let me give it another shot. 01:19:32.720 --> 01:19:36.000 And I sat and I watched it, and I enjoyed it way more. 01:19:36.159 --> 01:19:36.399 Okay. 01:19:36.560 --> 01:19:38.319 I on the and a lot of my friends have had that. 01:19:38.399 --> 01:19:43.600 A lot of my friends said, Yeah, I watched it, didn't like it, but then I revisited it later and I really liked it the second time. 01:19:43.840 --> 01:19:46.159 Um, so I really enjoyed it, I love it now. 01:19:46.239 --> 01:19:47.840 So every time I watch it, I'm all for it. 01:19:47.920 --> 01:19:51.760 I binged all three seasons whenever I was re-watching it again. 01:19:52.000 --> 01:19:57.760 Um and um, but I had said that like you know, you'd mentioned like you've got to read it. 01:19:57.840 --> 01:20:06.079 I I've purposely avoided the books because there's it's not too off like I've read a lot of good comics, I've not watched a lot of good comic adaptations. 01:20:06.319 --> 01:20:06.479 Sure. 01:20:06.640 --> 01:20:14.079 So I think getting to watch this and watch it for the first time and getting all of the story is a lot better than me reading it and know it because I I've done that a lot, right? 01:20:14.319 --> 01:20:19.520 Like I read a lot of the books and I know how these stories go, so when I watch it, I'm trying to find like, okay, is this right? 01:20:19.680 --> 01:20:20.239 Is that right? 01:20:20.399 --> 01:20:21.359 But this I have no clue. 01:20:21.520 --> 01:20:26.880 So there's like a lot of things that like, you know, I know you showed me the reprint of the Invincible book that came out today. 01:20:27.039 --> 01:20:31.119 Um, that the whole hell scene that's in the episode isn't even in the book. 01:20:31.279 --> 01:20:32.560 No, and I wouldn't have known that. 01:20:32.640 --> 01:20:38.640 I was fully invested and it was I thought it was a good little you know, yeah store, like it was a good spacer. 01:20:38.800 --> 01:20:54.880 Um that's what I explained to my wife when I was talking about it today that the that the hell story was kind of added, probably because there is no real like I don't want to say pacing, but it just kind of like skips to straight to like a an important part in the comics. 01:20:55.039 --> 01:20:57.439 So they kind of put that in to stretch it out a little bit. 01:20:57.680 --> 01:20:58.239 Yeah, yeah. 01:20:58.640 --> 01:21:00.960 Um but I that's a fair point. 01:21:01.119 --> 01:21:04.960 Like there aren't Spectacular Spider-Man is the only other one that immediately comes to mind. 01:21:05.119 --> 01:21:16.319 Maybe X-Men 97, like the recent series, even, but there's not a bunch of great superhero adaptation shows, cartoon shows, that is. 01:21:16.479 --> 01:21:16.640 Yeah. 01:21:16.960 --> 01:21:18.479 And uh so that's a fair point. 01:21:18.800 --> 01:21:22.560 But I still think I I think I think you should read it. 01:21:22.800 --> 01:21:23.439 I really do. 01:21:23.840 --> 01:21:28.159 I I think what I'll do is when the show is completely over, I might read the book. 01:21:28.399 --> 01:21:28.960 Okay, fair enough. 01:21:29.119 --> 01:21:31.600 Just to get a just to get a second, like, oh, that wasn't even in the book. 01:21:31.760 --> 01:21:34.239 Like, oh, that was a whole, you know, another section or whatever. 01:21:34.479 --> 01:21:36.000 Um I definitely think then. 01:21:37.359 --> 01:21:38.720 I'm just enjoying the show so much. 01:21:38.800 --> 01:21:39.600 It's such a good show. 01:21:39.760 --> 01:21:44.640 It it is, and um but I mean, let's go ahead and get into the new season for sure. 01:21:44.960 --> 01:21:45.600 Let's get into it. 01:21:45.760 --> 01:21:51.920 So episode uh one of the episodes I really want to talk about is the episode where they explain the history of the Vilcher Mites. 01:21:52.239 --> 01:21:53.600 That was a really good episode. 01:21:54.239 --> 01:21:55.279 And that was tough to watch. 01:21:55.439 --> 01:21:56.319 It was, yeah. 01:21:56.560 --> 01:22:02.159 Um so that one I d I don't think that's in the comics. 01:22:02.239 --> 01:22:07.439 Uh the beginning part with Nolan and his parents, uh with Omni Nan Omni Man and his parents. 01:22:07.520 --> 01:22:09.119 That I don't recall that being in the book. 01:22:09.199 --> 01:22:15.600 And I could be totally wrong, but the rest of the history of the Vilcher mites is and that's a that's a really cool episode. 01:22:15.760 --> 01:22:17.279 I know we're skipping episode one, yeah. 01:22:17.520 --> 01:22:26.000 But episode one uh is is was also really good because it ends with Mark having to kill uh the astronaut who was possessed by the Sekwoid.

01:22:26.319 --> 01:22:28.159 Um and that was a good episode. 01:22:28.399 --> 01:22:33.359 It was just a very much, in my opinion, it was getting caught up. 01:22:33.600 --> 01:22:43.760 Your okay, this is because that's why a show that does streaming, that's why they will release a bundle of episodes, because your first like three are maybe your slowest. 01:22:44.000 --> 01:22:44.159 Right. 01:22:44.399 --> 01:22:52.479 And so that's why I think they released these three together because episode one is good, but it's like, okay, where have we seen these characters since we last left them? 01:22:52.640 --> 01:22:52.880 Right. 01:22:53.119 --> 01:22:55.840 And then it ends with Mark killing the guy who was possessed by the scene. 01:22:56.000 --> 01:22:58.239 Right, which is a great, like, okay, now I want to watch the rest of it. 01:22:58.319 --> 01:22:58.800 You know what I mean? 01:22:59.039 --> 01:22:59.359 Yeah, yeah. 01:22:59.520 --> 01:23:00.800 And so I think that's why they did that. 01:23:00.960 --> 01:23:06.159 And of course, Robot and Monster Girl are in the uh the Flaxen's dimension. 01:23:06.479 --> 01:23:10.000 Which I'm wondering if that's gonna and you again you've read it, so you might say nothing. 01:23:10.239 --> 01:23:18.720 I'm wondering if that's gonna lead to them both coming out as adults because you know they're both adults in kids' bodies, um, for the most part. 01:23:18.800 --> 01:23:18.960 Right. 01:23:19.199 --> 01:23:20.399 I plead the fifth. 01:23:20.880 --> 01:23:21.439 Oh, yep, yeah. 01:23:21.520 --> 01:23:23.920 Oh yeah, you can't say anything because you'll say anything that you'll spoil it. 01:23:24.000 --> 01:23:28.079 So that that's where that's where my brain's at, is I'm like, oh, are they gonna become adults now?

violent. 01:26:08.479 --> 01:26:12.640 I'm like, you know, this is violent because I have sheep with showing you the other scenes. 01:26:13.119 --> 01:26:17.359 She's like, well, it's just that like in a cartoon, I can't really watch the violence. 01:26:17.520 --> 01:26:21.039 She's like, I could probably see it in in real life and and not and be okay with it. 01:26:21.119 --> 01:26:22.560 I'm like, I'm the opposite. 01:26:22.720 --> 01:26:25.119 I would rather see it in a cartoon because it doesn't bother me as much. 01:26:25.359 --> 01:26:27.760 It doesn't bother me as much either, yeah, because it because it's a cartoon. 01:26:27.920 --> 01:26:31.760 But also, like, I really like um I got Elise to start watching it too. 01:26:31.920 --> 01:26:33.680 We actually started, I started around episode one. 01:26:33.760 --> 01:26:38.159 She's kind of seen some of the episodes um and the plot twist at the end. 01:26:38.319 --> 01:26:43.680 I think she knew the Omni Man, she's I guess she had like watched over the shoulder and been like, I know he's bad at some point. 01:26:44.079 --> 01:26:47.920 Um, but she was shocked when he when he when he killed the Guardians of the Globe. 01:26:48.000 --> 01:26:50.319 Yeah, she was like, Why did he just do all that? 01:26:50.479 --> 01:26:52.079 And I was like, I don't know, you gotta watch it. 01:26:52.720 --> 01:26:54.319 Like, there's a reason for all of this, you know. 01:26:54.399 --> 01:26:59.199 And um, but um getting to see his origin though, yeah, that's the one. 01:26:59.520 --> 01:27:05.760 Getting to see the planet getting like it got this uh it got like a bio the the scourge virus, yeah. 01:27:05.840 --> 01:27:08.880 The scourge virus, and watching all of these guys die. 01:27:09.039 --> 01:27:13.279 Yes, and everyone's getting infected, and no one gets infected, but he somehow survives. 01:27:13.359 --> 01:27:13.760 Yes. 01:27:13.920 --> 01:27:16.560 Um, some some people survive, yes, but not everybody. 01:27:16.880 --> 01:27:25.039 That's why there's 50 the less than 50 pure-blooded Viltramites left in the uh in the universe because they're the only ones that left on an entire planet. 01:27:25.199 --> 01:27:28.239 That's what I kept like thinking about the whole time watching that episode. 01:27:28.399 --> 01:27:34.560 Like, this planet probably has let's say even seven billion Viltramites down to 50. 01:27:34.800 --> 01:27:36.560 Yeah, that is insane. 01:27:36.720 --> 01:27:45.119 And I mean, you see the trails of of bodies and you see like piles just like where uh Nolan is fighting his parents in the beginning. 01:27:45.600 --> 01:27:51.680 Um there just pile like thousands and thousands, hundreds of thousands of bodies just piled up everywhere, right? 01:27:51.840 --> 01:27:55.359 And seeing that it's kind of like oh, it's it you know, it's it's crazy. 01:27:55.920 --> 01:27:59.840 Yeah, I don't know, it's it's it's like you you don't like the Viltermites because. 01:28:00.239 --> 01:28:12.720 like the first thing you're introduced to is how like they're literally willing to kill their own children right because they're not like oh if you're not gonna be strong enough then I'm just gonna go ahead and kill you now you know and they literally like Nolan's parents beat him up just to see if he's tough enough. 01:28:12.880 --> 01:28:16.960 Yeah and that like that's his test to the brink of adult yeah to to the brink of being dead. 01:28:17.119 --> 01:28:17.359 Yeah. 01:28:17.520 --> 01:28:28.079 And then like immediately everybody's like vom like literally the first guy who starts like vomiting up blood they're like oh did your parents punch you too hard this morning you lose her and then like everybody starts doing it and they're like okay what's happening something's happening. 01:28:28.720 --> 01:28:31.039 But like you kind of start to like I I felt bad for that. 01:28:35.039 --> 01:28:39.279 It's a cool thing because they this they start the episode making you be like God these guys suck. 01:28:39.439 --> 01:28:43.439 Like this their their whole planet sucks like their race sucks. 01:28:44.800 --> 01:28:45.920 Paula's race is confirmed. 01:28:46.079 --> 01:29:00.640 No no no no no just against filter mites just against filters just against filter mites they're bad people they're really bad people um but um but like then you feel bad because you're like man but they're losing everybody and like now you see like what it looks like when they're actually scared. 01:29:00.880 --> 01:29:07.600 And that was the whole point of Nolan no Nolan going out was to find a mate and repopulate. 01:29:07.680 --> 01:29:07.840 Right. 01:29:08.000 --> 01:29:10.800 That's why he's screwing all these women having babies everywhere. 01:29:11.119 --> 01:30:02.960 Yeah um so and then the rest of the episode continues as it's we're back in the present day and Nolan and Alan the alien are uh searching for reasons to sorry go ahead I know what part you're laughing at yeah they're searching for the creatures yeah like enemies things that can kill the Viltramites to finish off and yeah to start a regime and every night Alan and his wife maybe multiple times a night have sex continuously and it's so funny because it goes to them on their mission then it just immediately cuts to Nolan on the couch like covering his ears while they're while they're having sex and then it goes back to them doing another mission and it cuts back to them on and then like Nolan ends up getting up and leaving one night to find out that there are other rooms on this ship that he was not told about and he almost kills the pilot of the ship who was an absolute idiot yeah um because of it. 01:30:03.359 --> 01:30:05.840 It's really funny the comedy in this show is great. 01:30:06.000 --> 01:30:13.920 Oh it is they they know when to hit things and how hard to hit they know when like there's they know what's too much and what's not enough. 01:30:14.239 --> 01:30:57.279 This show yeah yeah oh man

it's so good it's so good it's such a good show um yeah I knew as soon as you started laughing I knew what you were laughing about how can you forget we started counting we were watching it at my friend's house and we started counting we were like four five six like you know I also want to make a quick note on episode two because again going back to the voice acting the scene between Omni Man and um Thaddeus Peter Collins voice actor and and JK Simmons that scene dude just the voice acting alone like I could have closed my eyes and just been like these two have some of the most iconic voices ever and just listening to them like I could just listen to that all day. 01:30:57.439 --> 01:31:03.119 Yeah if they did an audiobook for 24 hours long yeah just sit there and listen to a button. 01:31:03.279 --> 01:31:16.800 It's like Morgan Freeman yeah it's like oh like the piece the piece sounds but you find out that Peter Cullen's character um was the one who unleashed the one who unleashed the Scourge virus and he was a he's a Viltramite yes did why did he do that again? 01:31:16.960 --> 01:31:40.560 He did it because so his reasoning was to hopefully get rid was to get rid of because he killed the original Viltramite leader and that was his hope Argyll to kill Argyll was that so the people might see the the error of their ways that they maybe that maybe since he was just a violent ruler if you killed him maybe the rest of the Viltramites would be peaceful. 01:31:40.720 --> 01:31:55.520 But that didn't work so then Thaddeus thought that the only way to stop the Viltimites was to unleash the virus yeah and to just wipe the whole race yeah and and we see Nolan I think it's really cool to see Nolan regretting like all the things he's done he really regrets Earth. 01:31:55.680 --> 01:32:20.560 Yes like it's you know which his character development has been great because even like going back to season one like watching that first episode with Elise again like it was um you know seeing him like finally killing everybody and like his main goal is to just get build Vilchum back up and then like Mark being a kid and now you see Mark and Mark's like this adult who's got so much weighing on him and you see Nolan who's just trying his best to fix his mistakes. 01:32:20.640 --> 01:32:26.399 And you know he's like like there is the there's the planet where they're like yeah we froze the planet because we had that's the only way we can stop these guys. 01:32:26.560 --> 01:32:26.640 Right. 01:32:26.800 --> 01:32:36.079 And it's just like yeah you guys were screwed he's like Alan says like man every time I think you guys might be okay right like you show me something like this and you just prove to me that I'm always wrong. 01:32:37.039 --> 01:32:43.840 Even that even that because that follows the scene and he's like yeah we put this solar disc up to block the sun out to freeze the planet. 01:32:43.920 --> 01:32:58.479 Yeah and he's like can you move it out of the way and the captain's like I'm gonna make up for my past mistakes and blows it up and they're like we said to move it not to blow it up because then everything starts unfalling falling and all these like dinosaur monster things are trying to kill kill them and they almost do it they almost win. 01:32:59.920 --> 01:33:07.039 But yeah like um I think like I think that was probably the best episode so far out of all I think that was the most invested season. 01:33:07.279 --> 01:33:12.399 Because that was the one episode that when me and me and all my buddies were watching it that we all were like completely silent throughout the whole thing. 01:33:12.720 --> 01:33:16.880 Like through all those we were like chit chatting and stuff but this one we were just like very invested watching all this. 01:33:17.119 --> 01:33:29.119 So I I'm I'm like right there with you because Gabriela um you know being pregnant your feet swell up so and so she's stuck on the couch and she's got to watch all the yeah yeah and she's also on her feet all day. 01:33:29.279 --> 01:33:29.359 Right. 01:33:29.760 --> 01:33:37.039 So I was massaging her feet and while we were binging the first three episodes and I just stopped during that episode. 01:33:38.000 --> 01:33:48.720 And I'm and I'm hooked like watching and every so often she'll like kick me and be like hey I'm not trying to be rude but I my feet really hurt. 01:33:48.880 --> 01:34:03.199 I'm like oh yeah yeah yeah yeah um like you're slowly stopping because you're just you can't stop watching it like and eventually she just said okay thank you that's that's enough I love Gabriela incredible. 01:34:03.359 --> 01:34:19.439 I am I'm very lucky but anyways um but also we had so um episode three we have that was episode two episode three was the final of the first release which what uh that was the episode where I forgore. 01:34:19.760 --> 01:34:23.520 Well the main reveal for episode three is that Adam Eve is pregnant. 01:34:23.680 --> 01:34:34.960 That Adam yes Adam Eve is is pregnant at the end and that's why her powers are gone because throughout these episodes she's having a hard time using her powers as everything she makes it just melts into rainbow goo. 01:34:35.119 --> 01:34:35.279 Right. 01:34:35.439 --> 01:34:36.800 And you find out that she's pregnant. 01:34:37.039 --> 01:34:45.119 So um that was a really I I kind of figured whenever her I was like yeah she's it's probably the pregnant thing um which is really crazy. 01:34:45.359 --> 01:34:52.239 And then um we get in the newest episode that dropped today we get a whole storyline about like hell and all this stuff going on which was interesting. 01:34:52.319 --> 01:34:57.920 It was kind of off to the side I'll say this was my least favorite episode of Invincible that they have done so far. 01:34:58.159 --> 01:34:58.479 Really? 01:34:58.640 --> 01:34:59.039 Why? 01:34:59.760 --> 01:35:07.359 Is it just because of like the the like is it because they make hell like not

that bad of a place that kind of bothered me a little bit. 01:35:07.520 --> 01:35:38.079 Yeah but that's just the Christian thing I guess man I really it was actually funny because I'm working on my script for the Isaiah 43 podcast which is my other podcast that I do podcast plug yeah you did another I did you're right um so anyway so I was working on the script and it I was also watching Invincible while I was doing it I was trying to multitask and they started talking about hell and stuff and I'm like I can't work on my my Bible podcast while I'm listening to this. 01:35:38.239 --> 01:35:54.880 Yeah and and really I I I could talk about like why I think their d depiction of hell is just wrong but it's not even it's not even that that I didn't like but but I do agree with you I didn't I didn't care much for that yeah yeah but frankly I don't really care I don't I don't care about these characters. 01:35:55.680 --> 01:36:08.960 And that's kind of why like with the rest of Invincible they have established these characters they have made you care about them but this Damien dark blood and his siblings in hell and Satan getting power again I I don't care. 01:36:09.199 --> 01:36:20.479 Yeah I don't I I I just I'm not invested and it didn't feel like sure Invincible is there and he's like he he kind of doesn't even know why he's there in this episode. 01:36:21.199 --> 01:36:24.399 But it really was not about Invincible until the end. 01:36:24.720 --> 01:36:34.079 Yeah and in the beginning the beginning had a little bit but I think those are my favorite parts is the fact that we get that scene at the beginning where he's questioning if he should be a hero. 01:36:34.159 --> 01:36:37.439 Right because he's really trying he's he's really concerned with being his dad. 01:36:37.600 --> 01:36:37.760 Right. 01:36:37.920 --> 01:36:43.199 He's like I don't want to be my dad and he doesn't know the changes that his dad has been going through because this has been a he thinks he's dead. 01:36:43.359 --> 01:37:08.880 He thinks he's dead and um he's like I just don't deserve to wear this costume I don't deserve this and you know they have that great with Mark Hamill who is playing the costume shop guy the great voice actor and um they're talking about like he's like well I I made the original suit for you again just in case you wanted to go back but you know it's up to you whatever remember who you are remember who you are yeah and the the the hell stuff is very side plot yes side and you know and yeah it's very side quest. 01:37:09.039 --> 01:37:19.439 I did really like when they're falling down the pit to get the crown and they're having that conversation about why um what's the guy's name Damien Damien pulls his mask back every time he talks and he's like why do you do that? 01:37:19.520 --> 01:37:22.560 And he's just like I don't know it just it it's cool. 01:37:22.800 --> 01:37:27.840 Like that's the overall like reasoning behind all of it but he keeps doing it

he keeps doing it. 01:37:28.319 --> 01:37:43.920 It's because Damien doesn't talk in complete sentences so he's like cool I guess cool I guess I don't know that was just yeah I will give you that that like that part I enjoyed and even like okay so even that scene for example this is why I was kind of bored with this episode. 01:37:44.079 --> 01:38:13.840 So that scene they fall down they're trying to get this this crown so Satan can get his powers back or whatever and he's supposed Invincible is supposed to fight Cerberus which is is cool like a cool concept because we're incorporating Greek mythology with all this so that's kind of new yeah you don't you don't show it they they see he grabs Damien and he's like I'll catch you in just a minute and he throws him as high as he can and you just see Damien going back up the hole and then slowly stopping and then falling back down and then by the time invincible gets him the fight's over. 01:38:13.920 --> 01:38:30.720 Yeah and it was just like because I noticed I was like oh that's a cop out right there that's that was very yeah that's like oh they didn't have the budget for that yeah so I I don't know and that's a meta joke within Invincible anyways is that they cut things to yeah so you don't see it and yeah so I I just I just didn't like it. 01:38:30.880 --> 01:38:34.640 It was just boring for me and I just was not invested in the characters. 01:38:34.720 --> 01:39:10.479 That's my reasoning my but my big thing was the end of the episode where uh Adam Eve is talking to what's his friend's name um gosh uh it's on the tip of my tongue I can hear it I can um I don't want to say Grayson because that's not right oh well anyway she's talking to Invincible's best friend yeah his best friend and you know Adam tells him like I'm pregnant and he's like oh my gosh congratulations that's such good news and she's like I no like I don't know if I want this right I don't know if I can do this right now and she's scared also because it's a super it's gonna be a superpowered baby right and his friend makes that note. 01:39:10.640 --> 01:39:17.680 Right and you know like oh he's gonna have superpowers and she's like that's you know it's it's I don't know she just seems like she wants kids but not right now. 01:39:18.159 --> 01:39:32.960 And he's like well girl why aren't you why you like I appreciate you telling me but you need to tell him like you need to tell Mark because Mark still doesn't know right and she goes to his house to tell him and she's like and she's like are you okay and he's like no but I'm getting better. 01:39:33.039 --> 01:39:49.680 Yeah like I'm getting there and he's and she's like there's really no good time to tell you this so and then who is floating above the house none other than Omni Man Omni Man and Alan and Alan and it's just like oh Mark there is a war. 01:39:49.920 --> 01:40:01.680 There's a war we need you yeah like yeah yeah and it was just like oh like the timing is really good for

all this because you're you're waiting to hear about all this and you're waiting for but it's just like it's just so close. 01:40:01.920 --> 01:40:23.439 And I'm hoping the next I I don't know when I don't know when they're gonna like you know I don't when she's gonna tell him but I'm so ready to see that conversation you know um he's clutching his mic oh no is it time to end this episode already um but yeah I want to say this is a really good series I'm really liking it so far. 01:40:23.600 --> 01:40:38.800 Um I uh with the is it every week that every Wednesday okay that's really cool um just just like the comic book um that's why Wednesdays are like my second favorite day of the week as Sundays I have to give it to church because I really like going to church and and and worshiping and stuff like that. 01:40:39.039 --> 01:40:51.520 Honestly I thought you were going to say like my favorite day of the week is Friday because it's the end of the day well that too but Wednesday's new comic book day it's Invincible day it's now going to be Daredevil day basically so it's gonna be Wednesday's we can good. 01:40:51.600 --> 01:41:28.239 Yeah also I I want to make I did I forgot to mention this there was I have a little complaint about the new season yes you do you gotta talk about that there are the first of all the animation of this show has always been fantastic season one two three and even a lot of four have been really really good but man that first episode of season four the animation was rough I don't know if anybody I didn't notice this there there's a scene where Adam Adam Eve and um Adam Eve and Invincible are Adam Eve and are in the kitchen talking and we oh that should be a button. 01:41:28.479 --> 01:41:56.079 That should be we're getting our button out you know that should be it um but they're talking in the kitchen and like when like when uh Invincible walks up to her it just looks like a cool math like a like do you know those I don't know if everybody knows what cool math is but like do you remember when you're little and you're in school and you get computer time and you go on like a game website and you're playing like Papa's pizzeria flash yeah like Flash gets games yeah um not flash gets that's a YouTube channel. 01:41:57.359 --> 01:42:08.000 Like plugging people we don't even know yeah yeah yeah well I know what you mean like flash media games yeah it and the the him walking up to her and then walking out of the kitchen looked like a cutscene from one of those games. 01:42:08.239 --> 01:42:09.119 It just did not look good. 01:42:09.279 --> 01:42:14.880 I don't know what I really need to go back and and watch that from a yeah when we when this is over I'll pull it up okay just so you can see it. 01:42:15.039 --> 01:42:22.640 But like I don't know it just I because I got worried and I was just like is it just me or does the animation because like I had just watched that first episode. 01:42:22.800 --> 01:42:29.039 We were getting into the second episode and I was like oh no the animation is quality looks like it's going down. 01:42:29.199 --> 01:42:29.680 That's not good. 01:42:29.920 --> 01:42:41.199 But then it got back up quick and like then it was fine for the rest of the the the uh the episodes I think what invincible does and I've noticed this with every season is that they really save the budget for the last episode. 01:42:41.439 --> 01:44:17.680 I get that yeah and and so yeah the conquest fight in the last season was awesome that was insane so I was I'll do a quick story about that I'm watching that episode and I'm seeing all these moments from the comic books that I'm seeing and even the the the line where he's like you're wrong I can see into the future and you don't make it to tomorrow and uh that scene like I'm I'm I'm in the floor watching it yeah because I'm watching on my phone and like I have nowhere else to like stretch out in the office and you're like laying in the floor I'm laying on the floor like yeah I'm just enjoying it yeah and man I like hit on the floor I'm like let's go let's freaking go baby yeah like that's awesome and my buddy who works on the floor below me texted me and said is everything okay I just heard a really loud noise I said yeah everything's fine what'd you hear yeah I don't know what that is I just I just plumbing or something you know that's fine definitely wasn't watching invincible you're just like banging your head on the floor like as Mark is doing it you're like this is so interactive my boss walks up and he's like Claire are you okay I just defeated Concord this guy's certainly not coming back now right you sure did you eat lunch today no I lost a bit to Bob Bob wasn't in the new super minute but oh no oh my god but anyway so what would you rate this new season of Invincible so far on um I don't I feel I feel bad rating it early but I'll go ahead and give it a rating now. 01:44:18.159 --> 01:44:24.239 Yeah I guess we're halfway through um what out of what? 01:44:24.880 --> 01:44:40.239 Out of 10 10 being the greatest show you have ever watched one being absolute dog pop one being ultimate spire many people are gonna hate this they're gonna be like I hate you guys I'm not watching your show anymore. 01:44:41.039 --> 01:45:00.720 Like uh you know oh so like one is like dog food right things I like better than ultimate spire dog food dog food um uh definitely it's not a I think the last season was uh I think the last season was a 10. 01:45:00.960 --> 01:45:04.399 I would season three was a 10 yeah I think last season was a 10. 01:45:04.560 --> 01:45:10.000 I think season one I'm gonna I'm writing the seasons just so I can kind of figure out where I want to put this one so far. 01:45:10.319 --> 01:45:15.199 Season one What happened in season two? 01:45:15.359 --> 01:45:16.960 Was season two the multiverse stuff? 01:45:17.279 --> 01:45:37.279 Uh no that happened in season three season two was when Oliver was first introduced

and Mark reunites with Omni Man on the on that planet and then the Vilternites take him away okay you're right okay so I would rate what's the big finale like the finale of season two? 01:45:37.600 --> 01:46:05.359 I can't remember is it's not when Mark gets taken away I think it's when that's when the the multiverse guy starts to to be when Angstrom starts coming oh that's when he fights yeah he fights him and that's when like is that when we get spider agent spider in season yes that's the ending of season two right that's season two because then he comes back in season three with the multiverse stuff okay sorry I I forgot about season two um honestly I think I would rate it like I think every season has gotten better. 01:46:05.520 --> 01:46:33.760 I think I think like if I had to rate it rank it in like season like season three is my favorite season two is my second season one is my third season four has got to be my fourth as of right as of right now with you as of right now like do I think it can change absolutely do I know where the story's going not at all but I I think it could change but right now so far from season one to season three it every season was better. 01:46:34.079 --> 01:46:43.439 I do think like the Invincible war was a lot shorter than it should have been I do think you know but um it's okay it's like you know it's it's like what one or two issues in the comics you know it's not that long anyway. 01:46:43.760 --> 01:47:13.039 So I'll tell you this knowing what happens in the comics everything gets better every single time every arc every plot every character development everything gets better every single time this is why I think Robert Kirkman is arguably the best writer in comics wow I I stick by that because of what he does with Invincible you see his growth as a writer and everything just progressively gets better. 01:47:13.199 --> 01:47:39.119 Yeah and I I mean I love Chip Zadarsky I love Mark Wade I love all these other writers I think Robert Kirkman is the best that's why I think what he's about to do with Transformers is going to be incredible but um that's gonna be next time that that comes out I think that's I think that's you know I I I will agree I think that Robert Kirkman I don't I wouldn't say he's the best just because I don't know if I know enough to to rate that but this is probably one of the best developing stories that I've been involved. 01:47:39.520 --> 01:47:50.800 Like it every you see the growth the growth stays these the characters are all the same you can tell that this guy has all this planned out or at least has a concept of all this planned out and is sticking close to it. 01:47:50.960 --> 01:48:29.359 Now the show being a little bit different I don't know but so far what I'm seeing out of the show is all the characters they have their place when you know like I remember when Rex died uh in the second season I think it's it's it's with the invincible war so it's the third season when he dies like that that was like because even him like a character that was he sucked in season one but he developed to the point where when he dies you're like oh man that sucks you know I don't know it's just there's there's a the character development is very well and the story the driving of the story is really good too I I I think it's yeah the best comic series out there but that's my opinion. 01:48:29.520 --> 01:48:50.960 So anyways anything else you want to talk about before we wrap it up man I think we've covered it we talked about Superman Spider-Man we've talked about Spider-Man brand new day we've talked about uh doomsday and uh and secret wars and now invincible so I think what do we got coming next week I know we've got Absolute Batman comes out when does that come out I think that comes out in two to three weeks I think we've got a little while before Absolute Batman comes out again. 01:48:51.199 --> 01:49:53.279 I don't know uh I really don't know when we're gonna have another big comic week it might be a little bit it might be I know I know next week I'll be out of town so we won't have nothing coming out next week um two weeks out maybe three
