This week the seemingly sometimes smelly Question gets himself into hot water when he decides to kill Lex Luthor. Also, he's sleeping with Huntress? What the...? Also: Superman is a jerk! And Aztek the Ultimate Man makes a cameo! Plus I give the wrong sign-off! Before that: we have some sad news about the loss of a comic book legend. The next two A…

This week the Suicide Squad, err sorry, Task Force X as this is a cartoon, breaks into the Justice League's Watchtower Satellite and do battle with a real collection of Morts (we explain that reference on the show). How does this tie into the Cadmus Saga? And can you just tear the Martian Manhunter in half??? Before that: letters! News! Rumors! And…

Breaking news: trailers for Superman and Ironheart have been released. We talk about 'em. What else do you need to know?By Cinema Sangha

We got a few weeks before Ironheart starts up so we're dipping over to the DC Universe to check out Justice League Unlimited. We'll be covering "The Cadmus Saga," starting with this episode where Batman harasses Amanda Waller. Also: why is Ice just hanging out when a volcano is erupting? Is that guy Dirk the Daring from Dragon's Lair (and do I call…

With the next MCU movie about to hit theaters we thought it would be a good time to read the first appearance of the team that is coming to the screen, The Thunderbolts. Or rather the team that is not coming to the screen, since the original T-Bolts have just about nothing to do with the characters in Thunderbolts*. That's okay, because the buzz on…

The first season of Born Again comes to a close - does the finale work? Considering we are Netflix Daredevil haters turned Disney+ Daredevil lovers will we be satisfied with how things are wrapped up? And did Jon Bernthal come back to the show only after a change was made that kinda ruins the Punisher? All of this and more is discussed on the show.…

Matt's kind of a jerk this week, but he also does a big heroism so maybe the scales balance. Should he tell Heather his secret? Could you really kill a dude by spitting a tooth at his eye? This week's episode goes all Creepshow in a very fun way. Before that: some movie talk, the experience of seeing the Fantastic Four trailer and the Superman exte…

The Muse storyline comes to a big end this week in an episode that feels like it's got a couple of weird logic gaps. Still, we're really enjoying this show, a total shocker to us. Of course the last few weeks have all been using the OG version of the season, before major reshoots - next week begins the two episodes that are completely new. Will it …

This week we have a bottle episode where Matt gets tangled up in a bank robbery hostage situation and we get the episode where Daredevil finally returns. Was it worth the wait? Will we ever see Matt having dinner with the Khans? And does Muse have powers or what? Before that: gym influencer Joey Swoll! Will Doomsday end with a white screen, a la Cr…

We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming for this news bulletin: Today Marvel held a very strange (and very successful) event to announce the cast of Avengers: Doomsday, which is shooting right now. There are a bunch of names you might expect and there are a few left field characters showing up, but maybe the most intriguing aspect is who …

Frank's back, folks. And he's the maintenance man. This week on Daredevil still no costumes but the drama and character stuff is simply terrific, plus we get two renditions of a Jefferson Starship classic. Before that we have some news, including the rumor that Kevin Feige is feeling iffy on the Russos after Electric State and that the fourth Spide…

Will Secret Wars have the Hulk holding up a mountain? Should you film elder abuse and not do anything about it? And could there be a multiversal Mary Jane in Spider-Man 4? We discuss all of this and more before diving into this week's Daredevil Born Again. Which, for the record, we liked! It's an all-trial episode as Matt Murdock tries to keep Whit…

The Man Without Fear is back, and we're covering the first two episodes of his new Disney+ show. Which, by the way, offers absolutely no information for folks who may have not watched the original Netflix Daredevil. Thankfully you have us, who half-remember some stuff from the first two seasons. Speaking of us, this is a special episode - we're tog…

The first season of this alt-universe MCU Spidey show comes to a close with a huge surprising reveal about Spider-Man's origin, a visit from symbiotes and the Scorpion getting his face smashed in. The first act is over and the stage is set for season two, and we can't wait. Before that: Grand Theft Hamlet, the V miniseries and a whole buncha news t…

It gets real in this trio of episodes, as the traditionally kind of lame villain Scorpion proves a bit much for a young version of Spider-Man. When we say we gasped... Also: Brave New World gets the worst MCU Cinemascore, they may have a Dick Ryder ready for the Nova show and there's cursing in a promo for Superman. If you want to hear us talking a…

They're tossing a whole bunch of Spidey at us each week, but at least the show is good! This new take on young Spider-Man is having a blast playing with Marvel Comics lore and using real bottom of the barrel villains like Speed Demon and Unicorn. But Doc Ock waits in the wings, so maybe Spidey will be facing a real threat soon. Before that: the Sup…

We interrupt your week to bring you breaking news about the Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer and also Post Malone Oreos.By Cinema Sangha

It's a new show as Marvel debuts their latest Spider-Man cartoon, the one with the impossibly long name. It was originally going to be set in the MCU but they changed their mind, and now it's taking place in its own little continuity with plenty of nods to what came before but some major changes and big swings. But is it any good? Before that: lots…

It turns out Falcon's first appearance in Captain America #117 left us hanging, so we're back this week with the next issue, where the Red Skull does the ultimate evil of telling a group of Cap stans to go eff themselves. Technically the story doesn't end here, so we will be talking about #119 in the intro to next week's episode! Speaking of intros…

Let's go back in time to when Sam Wilson, aka The Falcon, first entered the Marvel Universe. You know him as a Harlem social worker, so of course Cap meets him... on an unnamed tropical island populated by WWII war criminals? You know how the comic books are. Before that we have some news and another installment of listener mail. You want your ques…

Our first look into the new DCU comes to a conclusion, but does it stick the landing? Can James Gunn bring it all together and make it work? And why doesn't Nina Mazursky get a lawyer anyway? Before that we go wide ranging on the LA fires, the news (what little of it there is), the It's Always Sunny/Abbott Elementary crossover and we answer listene…

This episode sees a big change for us: we're also doing it on video! This audio version will remain forever, but you can also watch us if that's the kind of weird thing you're into. We're going to be uploading these to YouTube moving forward, and the videos will also be here on the Patreon. In the meantime: this week we get the origin of Dr. Phosph…

It's the best episode yet as Frankenstein takes center stage. And this episode of MarvelVision is certain to be the only podcast you hear this week where the conversation ranges from the origins of some racial slurs to the nature of evil with stops along the way to discuss robot vacuums, the global reaction to The Wizard of Oz and whether it's sad …

This week we get a flashback to Weasel's supposed crime that landed him in Belle Reve. But is Weasel even capable of understanding that he's in prison? And does everybody need to be a misunderstood monster? Also, we somehow get into a discussion about who won WWII. Before that there's news, including some good Superman news and some possibly troubl…

This morning James Gunn dropped the first teaser trailer for his Superman reboot on us, and we knew we needed to get on the mic and blather on with our impressions, insights and opinions. And so here that is, a quick episode devoted entirely to this trailer which - spoiler! - we both quite like! See you next week at the usual time.…

It's Nazi killing time on Creature Commandos as we get GI Robot's origin story. But am I being too nitpicky with this show? And if so is it because of bias or because I expect something more from James Gunn? Also: some news! Perhaps too much discussion of Better Call Saul! And some tough trivia. If you don't care about any of that skip to 28:35. If…

It's our first look at the new DCU, spearheaded by James Gunn. Is the view good or are we a bit concerned about what we're looking at? You'll have to listen to find out as we break down the first two episodes of this very adult-oriented cartoon that may be a remake of Suicide Squad (the first one). Before that: where in the world should Devin go? W…

Why is my chair so squeaky? Is Derek burping? The only person who might know is The Watcher, who is introduced in this issue of Fantastic Four. A truly jam-packed bit of storytelling, this issue has dead cities on the Moon, a commie villain, a trio of super-apes, the winning of the space race and more. It's the kind of comic book fun that could onl…

When does a criminal deserve leniancy? When they're very hot and have nice legs, according to Batman. Here's the first appearance of Catwoman, and it's a doozy. From Batman speaking directly to the kids at home to his immortal words "Be quiet or papa spank," this one has it all. Before that, some news, including a rumor about The Young Avengers bec…

This week we take a look at the first appearance of the next superstar of the silver screen, Kraven the Hunter. In his first appearance he fights apes, drinks a mysterious smoking brew and goes cruising in Central Park. Also: Peter Parker's love life is a mess, and we couldn't be happier about it. Before that we talk about a whole bunch of TV shows…

It's the finale of The Penguin and good news: everybody ends up happy! Whew, I was worried for a minute there. Well okay, maybe that doesn't happen but wow was this a good final episode. We loved it. Before we get to The Penguin we have some news, including James Gunn personally humiliating me, new MCU trailers out of Brazil, and we discuss the ins…

It's the penultimate episode of The Penguin, and things get explosive. Plus, we take a look back at Oz's childhood and hoo boy do things get dark. Real, real dark. This show is not afraid to make this guy a true villain. Speaking of which, Sofia seemingly graduates to real supervillain status this episode, and we couldn't be happier. We recorded th…

It was Agatha all along after all. The show comes to an incredibly satisfying end, and lays groundwork for more yet to come in the MCU. This week Derek and I finally find a version of Aubrey Plaza that gets our motors humming, we discuss why Agatha ends up in the form she does, and argue about whether lemons were available in Massachussetts in 1750…

Oz is up against the wall when the Maronis and Gigantes put the kibosh on his Bliss business, but he's always at his best when he's up against the wall. And when he's at his best he's a lying, cheating, backstabbing villain - this show does not hide just how awful its protagonist is. Before that: Zendaya is a goddess! James Gunn debunks more dumb r…

It's a whopper of a Marvelvision as we go long on the excellent new episode of Agatha All Along. Is this the best Marvel TV episode? Is pre-trauma real? And has Derek ever had his tarot cards read? Find out! Before that: Blade disappears from the release schedule! Tom Holland talks Spider-Man 4! And does Venom: The Last Dance set up a Sony/MCU cros…

Can the show live up to last week's stellar episode? Hell yes, it turns out, as things get hotter and hotter for Oz (and some other folks as well). Homecoming is a packed episode where a ton of stuff happens and where the status quo changes in major, major ways, and we're here to break it all down. As part of that we ask questions like: does the Ch…

It's the Teen backstory we've been waiting for, and even though we all knew who he was, it still lands! And we get to see his side of the interrogation from episode 1. Plus: did they sneak Hulkling into this episode? Before that we have a bit of news, including new Fantastic Four images and Tom Holland saying the Spider-Man 4 script still needs wor…

What if we got an episode of The Penguin and it had almost no Penguin in it and it was still one of the best episodes of the show so far? This week's installment has Sofia's backstory and really heightens the so-called grounded show to a level that is thrilling and fun. Before that we have a little bit of news and Derek relays the story of his visi…

It's a big reveal this week as Teen's true identity becomes known - well, to anyone who reads Marvel Comics, I guess. But don't worry, because we break down just what that crown means and who he is, as well as talk about what did and did not work in this Ouija-tastic outing. Before that we talk about some dumb life stuff, all the Lanterns news and …

Have you been wanting to get to know Vic better? This episode is for you, as it explores Oz's sidekick's past, including where he was when The Riddler flooded Gotham City. Meanwhile, as always, Oz is thinking on his feet but he also seems to keep getting himself into deeper and deeper trouble. Is there a faction in Gotham City he won't piss off? Be…

It's a 70s spectacular... but no coke. I guess that was Kevin Feige's hard rule, as per Deadpool and Wolverine. On Agatha All Along this week we have the next trial, and it includes rocking out and a cool demon. Plus: gay stuff! Before that we learn that Derek has made a shocking decision, and we talk about the newly announced Dynamic Duo animated …

Oz has really stepped in it and this week things just keep getting more difficult. The Penguin keeps ramping up the complications in a way that reminds us of Breaking Bad, but thankfully not quite that nerve-wracking. We talk about some news and some new movies, including The Apprentice and Megalopolis, and if you don't want to hear all that just s…

Good news everyone - Marvel listened to Derek's complaints last week and over the past seven days totally fixed Agatha All Along to his liking. This week's episode is clever, spooky, fun, and best of all, episodic. There's a whole story in here! Before that: news! Including who is playing Hal Jordan, what Marvel movie Jordan Peele might direct and …

So, heads up: we had some technical difficulty with this episode. This required a lot of stitching things together, which I'm not exactly the best at, and as a result you may find the episode to have a certain delightfully herky jerky feel to it. We begin our coverage of The Penguin, the spin-off from The Batman, and boy oh boy do we like this one.…

It's a fight! This week we throw down over Agatha All Along, the latest MCU show on Disney+. A spin-off of Wandavision, this show forces us to ponder just what an episode is, and also gives us a very good song. But like I said, there's a tussle in there. Before that we have a little bit of news, the ants are back, and a trivia question stumps both …

This week we're diving back into the first appearance of Agatha Harkness, whose new show Agatha All Along debuts on Disney+ in the coming days. We'll be covering that show, so it made sense to look back at where it all started. And it started kinda weird! This comic is at the end of the historic Lee/Kirby run, and it's a light and odd story that fi…

This week and next we prepare for September's new comic book shows, The Penguin and Agatha All Along. Up first: the first appearance of The Penguin in an early Batman adventure that shows just how much Bats was not a grim avenger of the night for very long at all. That starts at 1:02. Yes, one hour and two minutes. But if you skip to there you'll m…

We wrap up the first season of Caped Crusader with a Two-Face two-parter, and it's a doozy. Stick around until the very end to hear us talk about where this show stacks up in the history of adapted Batmen and our relationships with Batman adaptations over the years. Before that: Derek goes to a concert! The Thing is seen on the set of Fantastic Fou…

We're back from our trip, which means it's back to Gotham as we get to the penultimate episode of our series on the newest Batman cartoon, Batman: The Caped Crusader. This one gives us an LA Confidential-tinged cop story and a vampire tale filled with special guest stars who go unremarked upon in the show. Sneaky! We don't have as much intro this w…

This week the Faraci boys did something we rarely do - we got together! We took a family road trip to visit the home of Jerry Siegel, where Superman was created. And we went with our father and our sister. This episode was recorded by a single mic on the dining room table of a rented AirBnB, and our father Joe joins (Ariel declined). This one is al…
