07:56.459 --> 08:01.442 [SPEAKER_01]: You get the marriage back, but in the process, spiderbed to capitates that may with an angel sword. 08:01.482 --> 08:02.263 [SPEAKER_01]: How do you feel about that? 08:02.523 --> 08:04.004 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't feel good about that at all. 08:05.345 --> 08:22.438 [SPEAKER_02]: The other crazy thing, specifically in this issue of the Mary Jane is, when this first happened 15 years ago, I feel like we were like, oh, this is so complicated and feels like it's a meta-rack con while at the same time being a very high profile story that was interesting, 08:23.318 --> 08:39.522 [SPEAKER_02]: Just like left us with questions now that we're sort of unraveling it at least a little bit It leaves even more complicated questions like you undo a marriage that didn't technically undo their feelings But they did split up at the in the past. 08:39.662 --> 08:51.165 [SPEAKER_02]: They've been quite separate We have another issue in the stack of where to talk about where Mary Jane doesn't even maybe say the word

Peter Parker out loud While she's living her own life and maybe having another relationship with someone else 08:53.438 --> 08:57.473 [SPEAKER_02]: It's not like this contract was about their feelings for each other at all, in fact. 08:57.874 --> 08:58.115 [SPEAKER_01]: Right. 08:58.950 --> 08:59.631 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't know. 08:59.671 --> 09:11.859 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, there's a lot of stuff going on here, and we haven't even really other than this talked about the issue, which otherwise does spend a lot of time with these characters dealing with the fallout of Armageddon, how they feel about it. 09:12.300 --> 09:18.204 [SPEAKER_01]: It's the eve of the mayor election in New York City, so the pages mayorship is on the line. 09:18.624 --> 09:25.369 [SPEAKER_01]: There's a little bit of a flirtation going on with their devil in Captain Marvel, who is once again being attempted by 09:25.589 --> 09:50.628 [SPEAKER_01]: alcohol after her troubles and Wolverine has a relationship with David Colton who is trying to figure out when her his powers come out from and what's going on with him so there's a lot of different stories that are being juggled in here other than the whole Mary Jane Spider-Man of it all how did you feel about this issue how did you feel about this comic how did this work as a kickoff to an Avengers comic in particular. 09:51.124 --> 09:52.465 [SPEAKER_02]: As a whole, I really like this. 09:52.725 --> 10:01.111 [SPEAKER_02]: This had the feeling of the classic new Avengers Reset, that this feels a little bit at least in conversation with. 10:01.331 --> 10:02.712 [SPEAKER_02]: I like this team coming together. 10:02.752 --> 10:08.717 [SPEAKER_02]: It feels very organic, like the original Avengers, where they're coming together because of a situation. 10:09.277 --> 10:14.840 [SPEAKER_02]: where it honestly doesn't make much sense for them to do what they're doing because it's bad for sort of all of them. 10:14.980 --> 10:17.281 [SPEAKER_02]: There's anti-superhero hysteria going around. 10:17.601 --> 10:19.002 [SPEAKER_02]: Luke Cage is trying to win office. 10:19.062 --> 10:20.843 [SPEAKER_02]: He shouldn't be fighting on the streets. 10:21.543 --> 10:24.644 [SPEAKER_02]: And that's just a great call to heroic action here. 10:25.065 --> 10:31.548 [SPEAKER_02]: I really like Captain Marvel in this, a character that I feel like we talked about this a little bit in our discord, but like 10:32.348 --> 10:52.615 [SPEAKER_02]: She's depowered and it feels a little trolley to depower her and I get that 100% as a if that's what this is coming from I don't love it from a meta message board response story telling idea, but within the story I thought carolism is really I like her arc that begins here of her being like 10:53.295 --> 10:55.577 [SPEAKER_02]: Wow, I just went through something really harrowing. 10:55.657 --> 10:56.638 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what I'm doing. 10:56.778 --> 11:11.953 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm really low And her stepping into the hero role here is just I thought really nice The David Colton of it all feels like another character where I'm like oh, we really are wanting David Colton to be something is Marvel's telling us he should be something here 11:12.712 --> 11:15.476 [SPEAKER_02]: But the Wolverine relationship are already interesting. 11:16.157 --> 11:26.492 [SPEAKER_02]: The thing that's established in the previous story of there being another miracle man on in 616 because David Colden has the miracle man powers from the ultimate universe. 11:27.410 --> 11:28.171 [SPEAKER_02]: what is that about? 11:28.271 --> 11:29.532 [SPEAKER_02]: That's why they complicated. 11:29.552 --> 11:30.533 [SPEAKER_02]: Are we going to deal with that? 11:30.994 --> 11:37.860 [SPEAKER_02]: Because there's been some speculation that that is bucky somehow and that's going to become this other storyline in a few months in January. 11:38.301 --> 11:45.868 [SPEAKER_02]: So like there's just so much going on but this story feels like it's on a nice island setting the stage and bringing these characters together. 11:45.968 --> 11:50.172 [SPEAKER_02]: Let alone we get this Daredevil Captain Marvel moment that I thought was awesome as well. 11:53.408 --> 12:05.832 [SPEAKER_00]: I was just going to say it was interesting like I'm losing my shit reading this so it was hard to kind of focus on the other things happening But I'm very excited to see where this is going to go. 12:06.812 --> 12:17.556 [SPEAKER_00]: I also just thought it was weird how Wolverine was being coy with like Why need you to say like I have a miracle man tracker you know you mean like it was such it would like hey Wolverine what's that nothing 12:22.651 --> 12:26.653 [SPEAKER_00]: It's a weird thing to be like, oh, I don't mind your business. 12:27.214 --> 12:30.256 [SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, I don't know how to weird stuff in his pocket, honestly. 12:30.796 --> 12:31.877 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was kind of funny. 12:31.897 --> 12:35.339 [SPEAKER_00]: It's like, who else is old enough to know who Miracle Man is? 12:35.439 --> 12:37.300 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, Wolverine, we'll put them together. 12:37.380 --> 12:38.961 [SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean? 12:38.981 --> 12:41.362 [SPEAKER_00]: I just throw out there and just carve out. 12:41.422 --> 12:42.223 [SPEAKER_00]: It's great, though. 12:42.323 --> 12:47.886 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, just to wrap up this discussion about Avengers, we've talked about this, 12:51.831 --> 13:12.163 [SPEAKER_01]: Avengers on the Marvel side, Justice League on the DC Shah side should feel like or be the center of those universes, and so rarely are they, and I imagine at least part of that is juggling all of these pieces when you have, say, seven characters on a team or something like that, and they're all at individual books. 13:12.684 --> 13:19.227 [SPEAKER_01]: All of those individual books plotlines take priority, and ultimately the team book like kind of goes down to the second level,

which sucks. 13:20.268 --> 13:28.771 [SPEAKER_01]: So I spent most of this issue being like, do we have a central Avengers book because Chip Sedarski has talked about that, that's what he wants this book to be. 13:28.791 --> 13:34.173 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm reading most of the issue feeling like, oh, we're doing another mythist as to relying, I don't know if that's it. 13:34.393 --> 13:35.694 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, New York's in trouble. 13:35.814 --> 13:37.094 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not quite sure if that's it. 13:37.935 --> 13:42.797 [SPEAKER_01]: But the end of the issue, we are poking the bear of one more day. 13:43.837 --> 14:11.057 [SPEAKER_01]: if that's the idea of this book if he has a list of like all the third rail things with marvel words like maybe don't touch that maybe don't do that thing and that's what this book becomes that I think is good because that makes it and I hesitate to use this word but that makes it feel important and big because it's doing things that are dangerous that you shouldn't be doing obviously it depends on how the outcome of this particular arc and I'm assuming a lot 14:12.978 --> 14:15.019 [SPEAKER_01]: But I do hope that's the place this lives at. 14:15.280 --> 14:22.524 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, and I think we talk about this a lot where it feels like Marvel in the last two or three years hasn't been making a lot of bold choices. 14:22.564 --> 14:27.167 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, DC on the other side of the fence to make the comparison has. 14:27.327 --> 14:35.452 [SPEAKER_02]: It feels like they're prioritizing bigger creative swings, really making booms that feel fun, big, and just propulsive. 14:36.033 --> 14:40.336 [SPEAKER_02]: This book, I think, is the first book in a while I've seen that capitalizes on that. 14:43.045 --> 14:45.746 [SPEAKER_02]: And just the fact that I agree with you, they are finding some edges here. 14:46.146 --> 14:54.709 [SPEAKER_02]: But also, they're just wrapping current editorial into all of this, which isn't always happening in the main Avengers book. 14:54.889 --> 14:59.251 [SPEAKER_02]: And to have these characters feel like this is the current book for them is good. 14:59.351 --> 15:00.771 [SPEAKER_02]: And it makes it feel important. 15:01.472 --> 15:04.213 [SPEAKER_01]: So, by the way, can I throw out the most likely possibility? 15:04.353 --> 15:07.974 [SPEAKER_01]: I think for what happens, we have the end of this arc, Pete, that you're gonna hate. 15:08.699 --> 15:09.039 [SPEAKER_01]: you're ready. 15:09.439 --> 15:11.119 [SPEAKER_01]: Why are you trying to predict something? 15:12.300 --> 15:20.381 [SPEAKER_01]: I bet at the end of this arc Spider-Man does remember the barrage, but can't bring himself to tell Barry J. 15:20.761 --> 15:22.602 [SPEAKER_01]: And that's the place where she remember. 15:23.642 --> 15:24.102 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know. 15:24.402 --> 15:26.923 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think about something, but he goes about it. 15:26.943 --> 15:28.323 [SPEAKER_01]: He's like, I can't do it. 15:28.463 --> 15:30.923 [SPEAKER_01]: I can't tell her it's all fairies matter. 15:30.943 --> 15:32.204 [SPEAKER_00]: That they used to be married. 15:32.224 --> 15:33.104 [SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean? 15:33.184 --> 15:37.825 [SPEAKER_02]: It's very Spider-Man to be sure that by the idea together and not know how to 15:39.523 --> 15:48.887 [SPEAKER_02]: The shame of it is, I just really like what Joe Kelly's doing with Spider-Man, and I really like his potential relationship that he is going to sell to that bullshit. 15:49.927 --> 15:53.628 [SPEAKER_00]: I grew through Zalbetron that I think that this is great. 15:53.888 --> 16:04.692 [SPEAKER_00]: I think for comics when a kind of a bigger team can be the center for these characters and all the shit's happening in this book and then can kind of echo out the owns. 16:08.834 --> 16:10.895 [SPEAKER_00]: that continues to be where they're kind of going. 16:11.495 --> 16:18.858 [SPEAKER_02]: I made a washcloth rabbit for my third great girlfriend, Reannon, and just the other day, I tore it to pieces. 16:19.518 --> 16:22.179 [SPEAKER_02]: Does that contract broken in my finally? 16:22.959 --> 16:23.959 [SPEAKER_00]: Do it free for life? 16:24.080 --> 16:24.740 [SPEAKER_00]: No, about this. 16:24.780 --> 16:25.380 [SPEAKER_00]: What is going on? 16:25.420 --> 16:25.740 [SPEAKER_00]: Why does she?

Del Ray. 45:47.616 --> 45:57.844 [SPEAKER_01]: This is a 88 page comic book all about this Ghostwriter exploring her history as she goes through the Marvel Universe battling Doctor Doom. 45:58.244 --> 46:01.527 [SPEAKER_01]: I was shocked at how long this was. 46:01.767 --> 46:05.590 [SPEAKER_01]: I wonder if this started as a four-page, but he's serious that they're like, 46:06.046 --> 46:19.782 [SPEAKER_01]: A four-issue mini-series four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four-issue four- 46:20.762 --> 46:24.544 [SPEAKER_02]: But no, I think this, you can even see the brakes, I think, in it. 46:24.584 --> 46:27.045 [SPEAKER_02]: So it definitely feels like this is a mini-series they collected in one. 46:27.065 --> 46:29.086 [SPEAKER_02]: But I will say that, it still works. 46:29.226 --> 46:41.732 [SPEAKER_02]: And this is such an exploration of not only the Ghost Rider and this version of Ghost Rider, which I think is really effective, but other characters in the Marvel Universe pop up here that I think are really well used. 46:42.532 --> 46:45.574 [SPEAKER_02]: And there's just so much philosophy in this book. 46:45.754 --> 46:48.635 [SPEAKER_02]: It was reading a different sections like a concrete book. 46:48.875 --> 46:50.795 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I like that person. 46:50.835 --> 46:51.155 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 46:51.716 --> 46:58.297 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I thought this was such a cool idea of combining, you know, Ghost Rider in this character in such a

unique way. 46:59.057 --> 47:05.318 [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, I just was really impressed, you know, two great characters kind of gather here. 47:05.698 --> 47:10.459 [SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, also interesting use of doom here, you know what I mean? 47:10.499 --> 47:12.100 [SPEAKER_00]: He's just snatching kids. 47:12.340 --> 47:13.060 [SPEAKER_00]: Come on, doom. 47:13.080 --> 47:13.980 [SPEAKER_00]: That's fucked up, man. 47:14.610 --> 47:15.631 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, so bad to him. 47:15.871 --> 47:18.253 [SPEAKER_02]: This guy's a real guy who should run hell. 47:18.833 --> 47:20.355 [SPEAKER_00]: He's so yeah, you're right. 47:20.435 --> 47:20.835 [SPEAKER_00]: You're right. 47:20.855 --> 47:22.336 [SPEAKER_00]: That's a fucking thing. 47:22.356 --> 47:24.138 [SPEAKER_00]: He's a distal to run hell. 47:24.478 --> 47:25.759 [SPEAKER_00]: That's guys. 47:25.939 --> 47:26.239 [SPEAKER_00]: Are there? 47:26.660 --> 47:28.081 [SPEAKER_01]: Do you know are there auditions? 47:28.141 --> 47:29.042 [SPEAKER_01]: Because I heard of that. 47:29.082 --> 47:30.323 [SPEAKER_01]: And like I wanted to sign up. 47:30.483 --> 47:31.784 [SPEAKER_01]: You didn't get the call back. 47:31.984 --> 47:33.265 [SPEAKER_00]: My agent has him. 47:34.045 --> 47:36.127 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate to tell you you didn't get the call back. 47:36.627 --> 47:41.011 [SPEAKER_02]: I totally whipped my audition to run hell because I drank the wrong blood. 47:41.071 --> 47:41.952 [SPEAKER_02]: I drank 47:42.576 --> 47:53.370 [SPEAKER_00]: Alex, I'm sorry, as you were leaving, I was walking in and I heard some of the cast and agents talking and they were saying that like, you know, this guy's perfect, but his wife is just too nice. 47:53.691 --> 47:58.117 [SPEAKER_00]: So this business man, this business of dabbing souls that were in it. 47:58.157 --> 47:58.818 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, 47:59.218 --> 47:59.418 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 47:59.478 --> 48:00.679 [SPEAKER_01]: What am I even doing anymore? 48:00.779 --> 48:03.360 [SPEAKER_02]: You know, you are a great dammer like sort of in. 48:03.380 --> 48:15.685 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, there's kids who are damming souls all the time, just like no resources over on clipclop, you know, because like the devil has hooves. 48:15.705 --> 48:17.105 [SPEAKER_01]: So he makes like a clipclops on. 48:17.845 --> 48:18.026 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 48:18.326 --> 48:19.886 [SPEAKER_01]: And how am I supposed to compete with that? 48:19.906 --> 48:21.087 [SPEAKER_01]: That's my question, you know? 48:21.107 --> 48:21.367 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, 48:21.867 --> 48:25.809 [SPEAKER_00]: that's held up on the sound effects, you know what I mean, how you will get to this. 48:25.829 --> 48:27.330 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, add the sound effects to come later. 48:27.630 --> 48:29.892 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we do a lot of editing on this show. 48:30.272 --> 48:30.472 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 48:30.752 --> 48:31.313 [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely. 48:31.333 --> 48:32.994 [SPEAKER_01]: Capital number four

for it now. 50:44.743 --> 50:46.985 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, but that's in this nice. 50:47.045 --> 50:57.915 [SPEAKER_02]: It's sort of working in two, we get a lot of like sort of dialogue boxes with conversations from this group of people working to be generally bad guys. 50:58.455 --> 51:00.757 [SPEAKER_02]: I really like all of the writing. 51:02.080 --> 51:10.429 [SPEAKER_02]: and the text threads, like all of their names, we get the idea that their names are going to be athletes and animals. 51:11.270 --> 51:11.750 [SPEAKER_02]: I believe. 51:11.870 --> 51:12.130 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 51:12.211 --> 51:16.355 [SPEAKER_02]: And there's just some great fun pun writing going on there. 51:17.000 --> 51:24.043 [SPEAKER_02]: And all of those conversations feel very authentic and from like douchebags essentially. 51:25.003 --> 51:27.224 [SPEAKER_02]: But the story is very propulsive. 51:27.244 --> 51:31.806 [SPEAKER_02]: There's a lot of action happening as we're getting this sort of fun text thread stuff. 51:32.467 --> 51:40.090 [SPEAKER_02]: And I will say the title is not, I wish the title was different, because it's a tough title, I think, to really be like, 51:41.170 --> 51:42.371 [SPEAKER_02]: to explain what the book is. 51:42.491 --> 51:47.794 [SPEAKER_02]: The book is much more action-oriented than what no in escapes the dialectic says as a title. 51:48.354 --> 51:52.237 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I thought this was intense, great art. 51:52.257 --> 51:55.939 [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of violence, the tone of the art, it was really fantastic. 51:56.359 --> 52:01.122 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was a really interesting start and I'm interested to check out more. 52:10.534 --> 52:21.818 [SPEAKER_01]: So this is across over the fantastic four and the X man where three K has released a virus in a small town in Pennsylvania, Pete, you okay first of all. 52:21.838 --> 52:27.821 [SPEAKER_00]: No, I'm trying to find that back and trying to find that white beast everywhere. 52:29.181 --> 52:29.821 [SPEAKER_02]: That white beast. 52:29.841 --> 52:30.041 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah. 52:30.061 --> 52:31.222 [SPEAKER_02]: Have you ever looked in the mirror? 52:31.282 --> 52:31.962 [SPEAKER_02]: I think you're the way. 52:32.022 --> 52:33.003 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no. 52:35.425 --> 52:50.644 [SPEAKER_01]: uh... wait let me take another one uh... if you want to find that way at peace maybe check out some friendly neighborhood Mary Jane first be it you know i don't know yeah we'll fix that and i think yeah we have a lot of stuff to edit this episode 52:51.425 --> 53:10.828 [SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, the fantastic four and the expert have figured out that the beast of the future from the Age of Revelation sent a coded message back into Magneto's genetics to let them know how to cure the ex-virus that the chairman, the head of 3K, who is an evil beast, 53:11.649 --> 53:25.299 [SPEAKER_01]: has released, they head there, unfortunately, the chairman kind of messed up the formula a little bit and we all end with Cyclops heading inside of a dome to kill his friend Hank McCoy. 53:26.480 --> 53:39.449 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I gotta tell you, you know, why do you mess it up and wanted to blow up a whole town as a little crazy and the fact that Scott Summers thinks he can save it all by himself is a really interesting. 53:40.273 --> 53:42.255 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I really like that idea. 53:42.395 --> 53:45.177 [SPEAKER_02]: Like we end on that Scott's going to go face the beast. 53:45.698 --> 53:52.564 [SPEAKER_02]: It feels like a nice echo of what happened in the age of Revelation where it was Scott and Beast that were sent forward in time. 53:52.624 --> 53:54.886 [SPEAKER_02]: So now they're having their final confrontation. 53:55.466 --> 53:57.708 [SPEAKER_02]: Good parentheses on that idea. 53:59.349 --> 54:06.736 [SPEAKER_02]: This story, like Alex, I think he said is in the live show that it felt like it sort of wrapped up when Magneedow is saved in the fantastic four. 54:07.502 --> 54:10.464 [SPEAKER_02]: sort of did their business inside Magneto's body. 54:11.105 --> 54:13.807 [SPEAKER_02]: And they aren't really super involved in this part of the story. 54:13.827 --> 54:16.969 [SPEAKER_02]: It's been across over where it's been a surprisingly separate. 54:17.109 --> 54:18.870 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like, and it has worked. 54:19.891 --> 54:22.213 [SPEAKER_02]: But it just feels like sort of across over. 54:22.233 --> 54:26.656 [SPEAKER_02]: It feels like an experiment story of the fantastic for we're had a little side quest on. 54:28.077 --> 54:32.821 [SPEAKER_02]: But I would also say the idea in here that a chairman's like, ah, I made sloped moons. 54:33.602 --> 54:38.486 [SPEAKER_02]: Whoops, okay, I'm gonna just I'm gonna tip this into the garbage and move on. 54:38.506 --> 54:41.028 [SPEAKER_02]: I was like, oh, is this still the story?
