Speaker 1: Hello, Hello, Hello, and welcome to Bravo.
Speaker 2: We're Black and I am so happy today because we
are introducing a new guest to the podcast. I wanted
to talk to this person for a while. I have
been following them on Instagram. I have been wanting to
dip my toe into the black nerd like community.
Speaker 1: For so long.
Speaker 2: And you know, you, guys, I've been talking about like
Peacemaker and like Marvel and DC for so long. So
I have found another black gay comic geek, the black
gay comic geek. And like, if you guys are watching
on YouTube, which I hope you are, the setup behind
Michael right now is so iconic. I'm just like, yeah,
I want all these things, like I see Stranger Things references.
I think I see Marvel references. I see so much.
I am so happ happy to have you. Welcome to
the podcast.
Speaker 3: Thank you for having me. After this episode, you said
dip your toe, We're gonna throw you in the deep end,
like you're gonna be fully submerged and nerd them.
Speaker 2: I need help though, because this is the first time
me announcing this. But I live in Florida and I
was granted a press pass to Florida super Con and
I've never been to a super con. And the thing
about about being in the geeky universe is like, I
don't mean this in.
Speaker 1: A derogatory grade, but they strict like baby, they can be.
Speaker 3: They can be sometimes a little to gatekeepy strict gate key,
but it also depends on who you interact with, Like
I'm not granted. Let me let me preface this. Let
me preface this. I used to be when I was younger,
in my younger days, when not to throw a dar
Double Rappers kingpin when I was alone, like like when
I was a boy, like I used to be like, oh,
you don't know Peter Parker Spider Man, like where have you?
Like that's just the ignorant like. But obviously some people
didn't evolve from that, but I evolved and learn It's
like I want to welcome people like you don't know
Peter Parker Spider Man will come on in. I'm here
to teach and educate, and you know, have you be
just as excited as I am about these properties And
I love That's.
Speaker 1: The reason I love your videos.
Speaker 2: And I'm just like, you know what, like I want
to fully submerge myself into it because I have not
watched Star Wars, which is a lot to take on.
Because Hayden Christiansen He's going to be at Florida Super Con,
and I'm.
Speaker 1: Just like, I cannot fuck this up.
Speaker 2: Like I'm so scared, especially if I do get to
like interview him. I'm like, I need to know everything
about everything. And then just like even starting Star Wars
is scary. And then I'm just like, are you allowed
to dress up if you're like supposed to be pressed
or do you have to come dressed regular and normal?
Speaker 1: And then I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean I've gotten pressed badges and I'm still dressed
up for cons, Like okay, the ultimately what matters is
you just have your credentials displayed on the badge, so
like you could be dressed like you're there to have
fun and also to work, but you're mostly there to
have fun. And so I'm excited that you're going to
your first that you're going to your first con. I
want to know what your experience. It's like I've been
to so many cons, like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, that's why I need an expert.
Speaker 3: But I remember my first time going, which is like
twenty sixteen. I believe it was an It was a
con here in Jersey called Garden State Comic Fest, and
I was like my first time. I went with a
friend of mine. I dressed up as Miles Morales.
Speaker 2: I was just about to say who was here? And
I'm just like, what who should I be? Like, I'm
trying to figure out what would be the most like
economically like responsible, but also something that is good to
be referenced, and then also something that is comfortable since
I'm being pressed too, so I'm like, I don't want
to show off like full decked out custom all this stuff,
and then just like I have to run from run
this place to run that place.
Speaker 3: Maranda, You're in Florida, so it might be a little hot,
But I was gonna say, especially with all that leather,
a female version of mister Terrific, Yeah, I got to
get the mask, like the makeup exactly, But that might
be that might be doing too much, That might be
doing too much in the heat.
Speaker 1: That loved the suit, But I love, love, love mister Terrific.
Speaker 2: I love that, Like I want to put I'm going
to put that on the list, Like right now, I'm like,
should I just get like a silver or blonde bust
down and do three characters with silveral blonde hair. So
of course Iconic Storm like number one, every black Woman,
every Man's stream like period like the Baddest bitch O
mega level mute it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's just like a given and a rite
of passing.
Speaker 3: I was thinking, Misty Knight, but you got to get
the robotic robot arm.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm trying to figure out what would be
like like three either blonde or silver haired people.
Speaker 1: So then I'm like.
Speaker 3: But she's not blonde or silver hair. But I was
just thinking about what your regular like your regular hair, Yeah, exactly,
all you need is regular clothes with a robot arm.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I could do that and then if I'm
doing black hair. I also saw this like jump suit
and I'm like, I don't want people to be like
this is not commonly accurate. Like I saw this jumpsuit
that looked just like Black Widow also, and I'm like,
that's just something that I would wear every day. That's
something on that we wear every day. And then I
was thinking.
Speaker 3: We're super CONDI flo I actually went to college in Florida.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's in Miami convention Center.
Speaker 3: I went to Florida and m University. Yeah yeah, I
want your fam you.
Speaker 1: I love that. It's amazing.
Speaker 2: And then I was also thinking, like if I do
the bus downs, like I could be Storm a Homelander
and then like deniars, but I'm just so scared of
Like when I put that into some forums, it's like
these people are not black, and I'm like Storm is black,
And I'm like, can I just dress up?
Speaker 3: Like you know, well, let me let me, let me.
Let me say this, No matter what you do, even
if you cosplay as somebody black, you're always gonna get haters.
You're always gonna get people. Yeah, don't matter, So like yeah, sure,
yeah anyway, but yeah, like if you cosplay somebody's not
traditionally black, people are gonna, you know, people are gonna
say stuff. People are gonna criticize you, But who cares.
You're there for you, You're you're there to have fun. Cosplay
is for everybody. So if you're in a wheelchair and
you want to be Peter Parker spider Man, be Peter
Parker spider Man, Like, it doesn't matter as long as
you are having fun. Fuck what everybody else got to say,
can I curse? Fuck what everybody else has to say,
long as they're not paying your bills, they're not they're
not paying for your I'm a con ticket, so who
cares what they gotta say.
Speaker 1: I'm just here.
Speaker 3: I call myself Black Day Comic gig on the internet,
of course, like I get payter, Why you gotta emphasize
that you're black? Why can't you just say or that
you're gay? Why can't you just talk? Shut the fuck
Out'm gonna do what I want. Make your own videos,
put your own screen name. I'm gonna do. I'm gonna
call myself Black Day Comic geek because the moment before
you even see a video of mind, you know exactly
what the content is with the topics or what I
stand for, what I believe. So if you're not for it,
if you're not you know, pro LGBT black, then don't
click on my page. Move miss me with that bullshit.
That's why I welcome, say every video welcome to my
safe game in because this is a place for black
and queer nerds and allies alike.
Speaker 2: Yes, so that's what I wanted to get into. It's
just how did you get into me? Content?
Speaker 1: Like so much.
Speaker 2: So I think everyone, not everyone, But there's a lot
of people on the Internet that make content and they
come in on things and they give their thoughts on things,
and it's raw and unfiltered, but it's not just raw
unfiltered thoughts. You have a niche, just as I have
a niche, Like I want black and brown people to
feel safe in the reality space. Like as much as
we're watching our House as well, Atlanta, we're also watching
those ghetto secret lives and mormonal wives and they're all white.
So I'm just like, I want everyone to know that
we're all watching the same thing to bring people together.
How did you come about like your love for content
creating and being able to do it so well that
you're able to go to like screenings and and get
like pr boxes and see things early and attend all
these like amazing events and report back and stuff.
Speaker 1: How did you get into that?
Speaker 3: So there's a long answer to short airs, So I'm
gonna give like the amended yes, So basically the way
it happened. So I got my degree in theater, Like
I mentioned I start, I went to school of floor
to m University, and so I always knew that I
was put on this earth. My purpose was to entertain
people and also educate people. So I wanted to pursue
acting and like even like screenwriting and things like that.
So I thought that was my avenue. And so in
pursuing acting and going on auditions and things like that,
I had a friend that had a podcast, and one
day I asked him does he want to go see
john Wick two with me? So we went to the movies,
we saw john Wick two, and then he was like,
I kind of want to talk about this on the podcast.
Do you mind being a guest? And I was like, uh, sure,
I guess I've never done anything like this before. And
we had really good chemistry and really good report Like
granted I was nervous as hell on that episode, but
that was my first time like actually giving my opinion
like publicly. It wasn't like live, but still like it
was a recorded podcast is going to go out to
the public. And he was just like, we have really
good chemistry, Like I would like to have you on again,
you know, in the future. And then Tom went by
having heard I didn't hear from him, but then like
he wanted to make the podcast more permanent, like because
Before that, he was recorded like maybe once every couple
of months, and he wanted to do every single week.
People he had on couldn't commit to that, so he
asked me, and I became his permanent co host, and
we were going for like years, and as we were going,
I was just like, I really like, like I kind
of loved this, especially because I was getting people right
in like, oh, like your new host, Michael. I love Michael.
You know, Lady Gaga, I lived for the Appla. That's uplaw.
It's uplawed. Like I'm a theater guy. I'm an actor,
like of course, praise me, worship you give me some
rid of claw. So like I was like, you're hitting people,
are like hitting all the things that I love, like
and I'm getting my opinion putting like a so I'm
entertaining and educating in a different way and bringing up
perspective and because even people just like oh, like you
know before somebody rolled in, was just like, oh, I
used to be homophobic. But then when I hear like
Michael's perspective and his things on like gay takes and
what like being gay is not a choice, and him
like saying things like that, like it made understand or
realize things about you know, gay people and everything like
that that maybe change my perspective. And so it's just
like I just found this new avenue in this new
area of you know, being able to educate and entertain people.
And then eventually, during like the pandemic, we stopped recording,
but then I just started doing my own thing and
then just kept growing from there.
Speaker 1: That's amazing.
Speaker 2: And you you, well, your main your biggest following is
on TikTok. Yeah, and I follow you on Instagram just
because I'm an Instagram girly. I think I follow you
on both, but like when I see your videos this Instagram,
So what I've said, I would be like, what is
your your strongest like your your most opinionated vibe or
your favorite fan base Like we have DC, we have Marvel,
we have like independent comics, we have like, you know,
just sci fi in general, like Star Wars. Like what
fandom do you feel like you commit the most?
Speaker 3: Too funny enough, right now it's interview with the Vampire
or now with this new season, it's this new seedson,
with this new season coming out, the Vampire Less stat
I said, y'all better get ready cause next month June seventh,
y'all are going to be sick of me with as
much as I will be talking about, gushing about and
praising and talking about this show like I absolutely love
this show. So y'all better get ready. They're dropping songs
for like this season. The STAT is gonna be in
this rock era, so I'm like, we're getting rock songs
from the STAT and we're getting Act three with Beyonce.
I'm gonna be insufferable to summer.
Speaker 1: I'll better get Brady.
Speaker 3: So y'all better get y'all better get ready. But but
but outside of that, like I mostly talk about Marvel,
like I mostly read No, Like I could rattle off
Marvel facts like just just like without really thinking about it,
and so like that's mostly what what I what I
talk about. I don't really talk about I talk about
d C, but I don't know as much about DC
as I do Marvel, and I don't read as much
DC as I do Marvel. Not that I just dislike it,
it's just like my first foray into comics and like
fandom in general was just like Marvel was like the
X Men animated series, the Spider Man animated series and
things like that, Like I just had more exposure to
Marvel than DC.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for some reason, I feel like with black people,
I don't know if you agreed, Like there's just something
about Spider Man that like we just all relate to
and cling on to. I remember, like my mom got
me going and and like for the love of movies
and pop culture in general. But she didn't really necessarily
because I'm I'm a girl. I was very girly, but
we would always see Spider Man, and like in the hood,
there would always be someone who would dress up as
Spider Man. Like it just felt like your friendly neighborhood
Spider Man. Toby Maguire bodied it, Andrew Garfield bodied it.
We just had this connection with Spider Man, which I
think it grows when you're introduced to different people within
the Marvel universe, at least for me from a black perspective.
So when your first con, did you dress up?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why I mentioned I dressed up as Miles.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, Miles were out makes sense completely. Let's get
into just like some of the things like that have
not been able to talk about because I don't know
if you know, but since I do reality, like sometimes
they are just things that happen in the reality space
that it crosses over to just the pop culture. It's
like geist in general. And it's just been a lot
of Summerhouse, Summer House, Summer House, Summer House, summer House,
because there's a scandal during it, and when a scandal happens,
people hop on They're like, I don't want to hear nothing,
just talk about the scandal right now. And I did
literally a forty days and forty nights of dragging this
one girl because of what she did. And I'm like, Okay,
now that I'm off of the forty days and forty nights,
I need to get back into different things I love
so much that I I was also enjoying while I
was focused on Summer House. And one of those things
was Invincible, which I only started watching because I watched
The Boys, and then after that it started auto playing
back on on Amazon.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I'm.
Speaker 2: Not even really into cartoon stuff or adult animated series
that aren't like funny, like like big Mouth sometimes.
Speaker 1: Like American Dad, Family Guy.
Speaker 2: But it's something about this, like I think I accidentally
stumbled upon the first episode too lazy to change change
the you know the episode, and then I was like
low key watching it but half on my phone. And
then the last like fifteen minutes happened the Guardians of
the Globe and I'm like, wait, that's not That's not
the Daddy.
Speaker 1: That cannot be the Daddy that.
Speaker 2: I just saw with the son teaching them how to
fly and they're fun and and Miss Debbie.
Speaker 1: That could not have just happened.
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, I'm so locked in, and
I watched that entire season.
Speaker 1: Luckily that was when season two was.
Speaker 2: Like already airing, so I didn't have that drama where
everyone kind of like fell off and was pissed off
because it's had to wait so long, right, So then
since then, I have been so in love and obsessed
with the show. And I have a best friend he's
read all the comics and he's he didn't tell me
how it completely ends, because I'm kind of a person
who hates spoilers, which is terrible when you're online and
especially when you're heading into being into the geek culture.
Speaker 3: I won't give you any spoilers from the comic either.
Speaker 2: Okay, perfect, but like I knew what like there was
different kinds of Wars like season three was going to
be like.
Speaker 1: The Invincivil War, And then I knew that there.
Speaker 2: Was someone name Thrag, and I'm like, this guy can't
be as scary as they said. He pulled up with
that fade and they did like a whole like just
that wind tunnel, and he didn't.
Speaker 3: Even Yeah, well, hen when he punched Omni Man with
freaking air bending.
Speaker 2: With air bending, I was like, this is another beast
and it's kind of hot, and I'm just like, what's
going on?
Speaker 1: How are we going to defeat this man? So it's
like kind of.
Speaker 3: Some big and it's crazy because like they made him
more powerful in the show and he even is in
the comic.
Speaker 2: And which is which is insane to me because all
I've been hearing about is like y'all when Thread come,
when there id come and thre I come, like it's
gonna be crazy.
Speaker 3: So it really makes me go, like, how is Mark Granted,
like I said, I know the comic, like I know
how what happened, but like I said, he's way more
powerful in the show than he is in the comic.
So I'm just like, what is how are they going
to defeat this man?
Speaker 2: That's all I was thinking about for that week between
episode seven in the episode eight, I was just like,
everyone's talking about real life stuff and I'm like, we
have to defeat the like and I don't know how
because Omni Man, Invincible and Oliver, which Oliver It's like, okay,
please go sit down, Lable, oh Roger. It was just crazy.
But yeah, just overall, I wasn't able to talk about Invincible.
We start off this season basically cleaning up from the
the rubble of obviously conquests coming and that fight with Conquest,
and Oliver is now helping his brother and Eve and
Invincible are like all in and I'm just like, this
is this is kind of like sad. But then we
had that episode four when they like they go to Hell,
and I'm hearing that that wasn't like a thing in
the comics or whatever. I like, what do you think
about like the Filler episode, the infamous Filler episode, the
m episode.
Speaker 3: A lot of people hated episode four, and I didn't
dislike episode four as much as other people. Yeah, but
I didn't necessarily love episode four like I thought. I
thought it was a little random. But this is one
of my gripes when it comes to like this new
era of television that we have where like you only
get like six to eight episodes.
Speaker 1: I hate it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, of that like one of my favorite shows of
all time. Even going back to another question that you mentioned,
like your fandom and things like that, like I am
obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Like I love Buffy
the Vampire Slayer. I could quote episodes like behind me,
you can't really see it because the light. But I
have like a I don't know if you're familiar with
Buffy the Vampire staff you have watched.
Speaker 1: And heard of it. I have not watched it, but.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but like I have Buffy's tombstone from when she
died spoilers when she died in season five, she came back.
The show went for seven seasons. But yeah, like I
have her tomb stone. I have like one of the
vampires Spike, I have one of the Slayers, one of
the Black Slayers Kendra here. I have a Buffy had
a weapon in season seven that she got called a
psythhe Slayer axe, but like I have that, like I
have props I met the cat. Like so I'm a
huge Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan and The reason I
bring that up is because back then, in that era
of television, you got like twenty two episodes, you know,
per season, yes, and things like that.
Speaker 2: Feeling and holiday episodes like yeah, what we used to
be a proper nation?
Speaker 3: Yeah, like Thanksgiving episodes, things like that, and a lot
of the episodes, because nowadays Buffy is considered a cult classic.
A lot of television, especially fantasy sci fi television that
we watched a genre television, all of it traces back
to Buffy. It's all inspired by Buffy. And I said before,
I know you're probably like, what does this have to
do with.
Speaker 1: But we ca all fun tingents here.
Speaker 3: But yeah, but a lot of the episodes that made
Buffy the Vampire Slayer as popular as they were were
like one off, standalone, quote unquote filler episodes. And like,
if Buffy the Vampire Slayer existed today, which supposed you know,
the reboot just got canceled, But if it came out today,
a lot of the episodes that we love that like
helped make Buffy the cult classic that it became, it
wouldn't exist in this eight episode era of television that
we're currently living in. And a lot of these so
called filler episodes is where, yeah, it doesn't expand the
main overarching plot, but it's where we get more of
the character development and character interactions and moments to like
get to learn more about and ingratiate and attach ourselves
to these characters. So while yeah, episode four didn't have
anything to do with the main plot of Thrag, we
still got the moment of like Mark and the demon
guy I can't remember his name, Damien dark Blood. I think, yes, whatever,
dark whatever, whatever the demon's name is, but like Mark
talking to him of like his PTSD and the things
that he's been dealing with and things like that. So
it's like, yeah, it didn't have anything to do with Rag,
but we still got more character moments with Mark and
and his his psyche and like learning more about this world,
this hell dimension. That's obviously gonna come back into play
later on because they the Demon's back on Earth and
he clearly has a plan with like Satan or something,
so that's gonna come into play. It's like, so it's like, yeah,
I didn't think the episode pushed the narrative, but at
the same time, it pushed character moments, So.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I wasn't a fan of that episode just
because I'm just not a fan of Hell. But as
far as filler, I think that filler is needed, Like
we need to know where these characters stand, what they're thinking,
get inside their and relate to them a little bit more.
Speaker 1: It made them Okay, Okay, Okay.
Speaker 2: I know y'all been on my Instagram and I know
that you've seen that I have been on my GOLP
one journey. I am closer to where I want to be,
but not there just yet. A baby, I am the
opposite of a hater. I'm actually gonna put you on.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 4: Now, there's a lot of us who feel like a
shot might be too much, like, you know, not not
downing shots. I'm just saying I understand that.
Speaker 2: There are a lot of people who are scared of
needles in general. Guess what road dot Co has introduced
a GLP pill. That's right, no sticking yourself with needles,
no stigma, and no feeling like you're doing this for
an illness. Now Roa dot Co is one hundred percent
online care s's to clinically proven FDA approved medications, free insurance,
check side effect management and dosing support. I listen to this,
Row offers the first FDA approved gop one pill for

wondering and getting scammed and told multiple prices. The new
FDA approved gop one pill is available for one forty
nine for the first dose in addition to your ROW

you will likely start in less than one week. Okay, now,

If this package was around when I first started my
gop journey, this is exactly what I'd use and listen
if you do start dmmy so we can talk about
gop ones and.
Speaker 1: Our progress and all that. I'm very invested. Love youa.
Speaker 2: Now back to the show More Human and it's also
like what exists in that universe, like expanding the lore
of that universe, and I'm like, not everything. And then
that's that's why I hate that every season is just
only eight episodes. It's like, break it up, like, let's
we have the money, y'all keep increasing the subscription like
this is one of the most especially when it's big
shows like Stranger Things and Game of Thrones and all this,
It's like, y'all have the budget. Of like dreamers, you
can do anything in the world.
Speaker 3: They're spending all that budget on getting all these A
list actors to voice these kids, but you don't need
you don't like, yeah, get them like Mark, Omni Man, DeBie, Yeah,
those thrag Like yeah, I get A list actors, but
like they've got like they got they had like John
hamm do like a one off like Mailman type of case.
It's like, why do you need John ham for that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: And I was so happy that like marsh la Lli
played that one dude, but they switched over to another guy,
and I'm like, oh, y'all want to spend all the
money on the dudes from what was it like Walking
Dead and all them, like you want to do a
Walking Dead reunion on here, but.
Speaker 1: Y'all couldn't keep merschal Ali. I see how it is.
Speaker 2: But overall, like yeah, so we obviously see the fallout
from the fight with conquests and Mark just trying to
gain the trust of the public.
Speaker 1: Eve is going.
Speaker 2: Through her own thing like her powers are activating. Turns
out she's pregnant. Could have told you that from the
get go, Like I just knew as soon as she's
I didn't even you know, I don't watch I don't
read the comics or whatever, but I do watch, like
after the show, I usually watch like YouTube reviewers like
opinions breakdown and stuff like that. But even before I
watch that, I'm like, she's going to be pregnant, isn't
she yahn?
Speaker 3: Because even if you don't read the comics, like if
you're a fan of like fantasy fandom in generals, that
always usually happens with women when they're pregnant. Their power happened.
Like I don't know if you watched charm, but when
Piper got pregnant on Charmed, her powers went on the
fritz and we're doing weird things and things that she's like,
what the what's going on with my powers? And it's like,
you're right, girl, you know, or even like what happened
with Jessica Jones and Dareduvil, her powers on the fritz
is because she had a baby. So it's like they
do that. That's the thing that they do all.
Speaker 2: The time, right, And also I do applaud like the
way that they I've never seen a show, especially an
animated no specifically, I've never seen.
Speaker 1: An animated show talk about.
Speaker 2: Abortion, like at all, and I thought that was like
really progressive of them. I how do you feel about
I don't even remember his best friend's name anymore because
he Richard William William.
Speaker 1: I'm like he was.
Speaker 2: Part of the show so much, like he was kind
of like his human friend basically like and then this
season it was to him giving like one off lines.
And I love his boyfriend who obviously he is traumatized
and he understands invincible more than anyone can. But how
did you feel about William's character kind of changing to
just someone that he is. I guess he walks around
with to feel normal, but he's not really adding to
and like showing that he's like Mark's best friend anymore,
because I think that he's no longer able to relate
to him as much.
Speaker 3: I've had problems with William since day one, to be
perfectly to be perfectly honest, and the depiction of William,
because like William is in the comic, and William is gay.
We find out he's gay in the comic. In the comic,
though he eventually comes out, he's in the closet when
the book first starts, So like, I guess their way
of trying to be more progressive. They're having him be
out and gay from day one. But with that said,
they kind of turned him into a stereotype. They made
him like the sassy gay best friend. He's not that
in the comic, like, you know, more effeminine things like that.
But then also like the thing that I don't understand
with William and that kind of annoys me about the character.
I don't understand why they're best friends. They almost have.
They pretty much have nothing in common Mark.
Speaker 1: They were in college. I was like, Okay, this made sense, and.
Speaker 3: Like but like even in high school, like Mark likes
superheroes and like Seance Dog and things like that. William
thinks that's stupid. So what do they talk about? Anytime
they interact, Mark either says something that annoys William, William
says something that annoys Mark, or William's talking about how
his dad is hot and Mark gives him like this
angry look. Like they have nothing in common. So i'body,
how is this your best friend? Like you never see them,
like having a moment of them like interacting and like
nerding out about something or like you know, like a sleepover,
spending playing video games. Mark likes video games. William thinks
that's stupid and childish, so.
Speaker 1: Like that makes sense for sure. I think that.
Speaker 3: I'm like just so I'm just like, why are y'all friends?
Speaker 1: That is literally a great point.
Speaker 2: I think that I saw the friendship with them because
of Amber was in the picture, which everyone hates, like real, but.
Speaker 3: They were best friends before Amber, so like that that's
his best friend. But it's like, but like Comic Book William,
he did play video games. He did like Comic Book,
they did like Seance Dog together. It's like, so it's
like you're changing this character.
Speaker 2: And he was already gay in the comics, so it
was just like if you're gonna make him, make him
out and proud in the beginning, but you can still
say true to like yeah, you can.
Speaker 3: Still make him a nerd and be you know yeah,
but it's like you made they made him a full stereotype,
and it's like, I don't like that. It's like you're
trying to be progressive on one hand by having him
be out, but then you're taking a step back but
then also making him a stereotype. So it's a gay
star are like, oh, I'm into fashion and all that
other stuff. I don't like video games. It's like I'm
a gay. I'm gay and I'm a nerd too, Like
I fucking galact this behind me, Like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I remember when they went to college.
Speaker 2: Like William has like the fake like Lady Gaga prosters
behind him, all the band posters and stuff like that.
Speaker 3: To be fair, I love Lady Gagat too, Like I
could do all of the above. Like what I mentioned
Beyonce dropped the dropping Act three, I will get that
day one and I will be at the Act three.
I will be at the concert more than once.
Speaker 1: Not a monolith period.
Speaker 2: And then Mark had to like throw out like all
his childhood or like nerdy stuff.
Speaker 1: So that is a good point.
Speaker 2: I thought that it was just this season that I'm like,
it just doesn't feel right this season, But you made
me look at look back on it.
Speaker 1: It's like why why would they even be friends? But
I don't know. I heard they also changed like the
voice actor for him too, and I'm like, I know.
Speaker 3: I think it's the same person, but I don't know.
It might be to somebody difference, it might.
Speaker 1: Be someone different. But just Sawid like we didn't really
see him this season.
Speaker 3: Yeah no, But also we like and it's like I
get it though, because right now this season is about
the grander threat of like dealing with the Vil Tremaie
war and things like that, and Mark dealing with TSD
and him always off in space, so like, yeah, what
time would he really have to deal with his like
regular human friend. Yeah, he doesn't even really see Eve
like that. And she also has powers, but she can't
participate because you know, her dealing with her pregnancy and
being you know, her powers on the Fritz and things
like that. It's like, but of course it's because they
have to take Ebo. They have to figure out a
way to take Eve off the board because technically speaking,
not even technically, she is the most powerful character on
the show.
Speaker 1: Like she's like, oh I mega, She's yeah, she's.
Speaker 3: An omega lovel But like they have to figure out
ways to deep pop like she can do it, Like
even the moment when they fought Conquest last season and
she like changed the air around him that he couldn't move.
I'm like, why does she do things like this every
season as opposed to making these pink constructs like a
green lantern.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's literally like yeah, so I'm in School for Architecture,
and I'm like, I use it that you want to
make your powers better, but what did you learn?
Speaker 3: Look, yeah, you doing what are you doing? You're doing
the same thing from season one?
Speaker 2: But okay, like the end of the season, obviously it
no one comes back and he pisces me off so bad,
like to no end, why are your toes out?
Speaker 1: Number one? Come back with your toes out?
Speaker 3: It's all the people that I got for the people
that got full finishes four episodes.
Speaker 2: This man has his toes out and he comes back.
Debbie is no longer with paul. I saw that coming
and I'm like, Debbie, if you go back to him,
you're going to piss me off because he called I
will never forget he called that woman his pet, Yeah.
Speaker 3: His pad.
Speaker 2: And then when it had to be able to ant
like what are you doing?
Speaker 3: Paul Is literally and then lied to her on top
of that, where he was like, oh I didn't really
love her, But then you're telling Oliver like, oh I
did love her or whatever. She's the first one that
made me feel something after what happened on So it's like, okay,
so you're still lying, So what did you actually really learn?
You didn't learn anything. You didn't learn anything except oh
my god.
Speaker 2: And then online people are like, oh, she should give
him another chance. This is why we are where we are,
because you are giving people like Nolan another chance. This
man literally went had a side baby, made you raise
the side baby because he knew she was gonna.
Speaker 3: Because he knew you would. And not just that, but
he murdered what did what did cecil say? Like two
thousand plus people, thousands of people.
Speaker 2: Murdered, thousands of people almost murdered Mark And I get that,
you know, time reflection, being away from like Ulchamites and
and all that stuff. He went to jail. I get
that he broke out. He might have some ptsc that.
Speaker 1: I get that.
Speaker 2: I love Alan the alien seth Rogen no notes honestly,
but also he came back, didn't even see Oliver, didn't
give a fuck about his son that you left with Debbie,
but you want to get back with your wife and
you don't even care about the son that she is
taking care of.
Speaker 3: And to be fair though, I do get his when
he mentioned his reason and he was like, after everything
that I did, I thought it would be best for
him not to get to know me. And see me,
like for me to stay as far away from him
because I don't want him to end up doing it
like it's something. It's like, I get it, but also like, no.
Speaker 2: They still your time with Debbie. Then she is she
gonna give away? Is she gonna give away?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah yeah. So like so I'm up two minds
of it, Like fuck Nolan, I'm gonna know. I'm definitely
a bit of a Nolan hater, but I at least
appreciate that because in the comic they do get back together.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I knew when they flew away and
she was bad, she was trying, she was mad.
Speaker 3: But I guess I did. I guess I said spoiled.
I said no spoilers, Okay.
Speaker 1: I feel like that's that's like common sense. The way
she was, like, y'all going in space, y'all.
Speaker 3: Especially with the way with the way it ended, it's
like it's they tease that it's gonna it's gonna happen,
They're gonna get back together. I at least appreciate that
they're not making it easy for him because in the comic,
Debbie and Nolan pretty much got back together just like that.
All he said was I'm sorry one time, and she
fell into his arms crying, and then yeah, exactly because
like what I what I also appreciate from the show
in terms of, like, you know, at least being progressive
with Debbie. They're actually getting Debbie a character. They're making
her a character in the show versus yeah, versus h
in the comic. Because in the comic, when Nolan did
everything that he did in season one, Debbie basically just
became a drunk. She was wallowing in her misery. She
became an alcoholic. At one point, she even blamed Mark,
like yeah, She's like, you made him chase you chased
him off. I can't believe you made him leave me
and all this other stuff.
Speaker 1: What the fuck he caught you a pet girl? Yeah,
the change that, And I'm glad.
Speaker 3: That he called her a pet in the comic too,
like but like but in this but like when when
when Nolan came back, it was just like, Debbie, I'm sorry,
I didn't mean it, and then she felt crowd into
his arms and the moment that they go to Telescria,
because like in the book, again, this is what I
appreciate the changes that they do with Debbie in the show,
she's going off to Telescia because she's like, I need
to go see Oliver. I need to go see my
son and make sure he's okay. And I have to
go with you because you're my only option. But fuck you.
Like that's basically like the attitude that she had when
she went to Telescria. But in the comic, they go
off to Telescia because she wants a vacation. She's like, oh, no, no,
I'm that serious. She's like, oh, she tells she tells Mark, well,
we're getting back together and we need to work things out,
so we're gonna go to Telescria on vacation to like
cause you know, I want to see I want to
see other universes too, and this will be our way
of like a little vacation to like work things out.
And then she says, and on top of that, I
can go see Oliver, Like Oliver was an afterthought. It
was an afterthought. She said, literally, the book is in
my room. I'll have to go grab it. But like
she's like, yeah, we're gonna go uh to work to
work out our relationship and I'm gonna go see Oliver.
In this it was like like right, now they're still
not because so by this point they were like working
on their relationship. They were like back together to a
certain extent, but in this point they're not together. Right now,
Debbie still like fuck you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's a mom first, Like, yeah, she's a mom first.
Speaker 3: So I at least appreciate that, even though the end
goal because they're not going to deviate that much from
the comic. So even though they're gonna even though they're
going to get back together, I at least appreciate that
they're not making it easy.
Speaker 2: Right right, Oh my, I'm distraught by what I'm hearing
in the comic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and yeah.
Speaker 3: Grated to be fair, I can't it was two thousand
and three or whatever, like at that time that was
considered progressive or whatever. But like, yeah, like no, fuck
that not in.
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty six, I would have been one of those
you ain't never I don't know what a fem cell
I would have been, Like, no way y'all did this?
That is crazy?
Speaker 1: But okay.
Speaker 2: We talked about Thrag a little bit at the beginning,
but ultimately what we were trying to do here is
figure out how to kill these viltrumites. We talk we
learned about like the Viltetramite poisoning and who did it
and how he did it, and like he was behind it,
and Nolan's conflicted feelings and how he had to scrap
with his parents and the mama was really trying to
beat everyone's ass and she had to stop, she had
to get stopped and all that. It's I think that
that is a good backstory for Nolan because I felt
a little bit, I guess a badness for him during that.
But ultimately we had to go. We had to defeat Thrag.
We still got forty Viltrumites left, which is more than
enough because they can conquer whole planets like it's nothing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you already saw what only three of
them did. They destroyed the whole planet.
Speaker 2: Right, Alan, the alien is now in charge because what
ultimately happened is that Marcu has PTSD. He's having flashbacks
that Thrag is on Earth and there the virtue might
to the score destroying Earth, and he ultimately decides, I'm
let y'all stay here and let y'all multiply because that's
the only thing that I can do, especially because he
sees a vision of Eve Basically and that like brings
him to reality. But realistically, Mark, you've been very vincible
this whole season and I haven't said much about it.
You've been getting here every season everything. You've hutting your
ass feet like a lot. Not sure why the show
is called this. It's cute, I guess, but you really
have been getting your ass feat a lot. Like I
don't know if you can be more training and ceeciul.
Speaker 3: Because obviously it comes with tom Plus there's a play
on the world, like compared to if on Earth he
would be mostly invincible, but that he's deal with every
time he turned around there dealing with space threats or
alternate dimension Like he is the most powerful creature I
mean outside of Eve, but in terms of like strength,
he's the most powerful on Earth. It's just he's not
dealing with earthly threats.
Speaker 2: At all, so it's given vincible. So he decides to
let them be on Earth. I mean, Steve Harvey gets
to work. Yeah, everyone gets so I'm just like, I.
Speaker 3: Want to see him dealing with America, like racism, Like
what's that? Like, Yeah, what happened? Granted, granted he's a
he's a Viltramite, so he don't have the the attachment
or like the history behind that. But I'm like someoney,
but I'm like, somebody call him, somebody call him a nigga,
like yactly, once he learns what that word means, like right, Granted,
he's probably still gonna be like like whatever because he
doesn't have the history.
Speaker 1: But this is the word.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I still feel like like if twenty years
on Earth can change Nolan this much, like I feel like,
especially for black Builtites, which don't even exist, it's just
built Tromites, black Viltiamites, We're gonna be changed like real quick,
especially once he go to Atlanta, like it's gonna it's over.
Speaker 1: I just don't want him go to Atlanta.
Speaker 2: But yeah, so we just end off with him invincible,
letting them stay on Earth to breed.
Speaker 1: Basically, what the choice does he have, like because he's been.
Speaker 2: Getting his ass be so it's not like and then
Thrag just goes with his brush cut and I'm like, wow,
that is a bad man. Like that that was so
I really loved the end episode.
Speaker 1: A lot of people did not like it.
Speaker 2: They thought that it was also not filler, but it
wasn't climactic enough. It was anti climactic, but I'm like, well,
what did you expect him to kind of do? We
had the episode seven was like the penultimate episode, Like
we had the hard fights, we had all the money
from animation. In that fight, we had like a demon
edit of this man in a flash. I'm just like,
I'm satisfied. He has to catch his breath at a
certain point. He's been getting his ass whoop. He's been regenerating.
Oliver is regenerating his mama's off and he got to
deal with literally he wasn't here to be a father
to his child. Does he ever want to be a father? Like,
let him breathe because he is also half human. So
I'm really loving the show, loving this season. I hear
that we are apparently halfway through the book, or more
than halfway through the book. I don't know how long
it is, but I just think that they're doing a
good job.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we're so so the comic is like
one hundred and forty four issues. We're about like seventy
eight eighty ish area eighty to eighty five, Like we're
around that area of the book.
Speaker 2: Over halfway Yeah, Okay, we're over halfway through I'm liking
the way it's going. Just from your perspective, what would
you like to see in the future with Invincible that
you think that can either.
Speaker 3: Improve it or better animation?
Speaker 1: Okay, I've been hearing that a lot too, Like I've
been looking.
Speaker 3: For Well, we're not going to get it. We're not
gonna get At this point, I just accepted the storyline
is so good. I don't really pay that much attention
to it. But I'm just like, how much epic would
it be if we had like Castle Vania type animate
level animation for this show? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that.
Speaker 2: And so that's a fear like assessment because you're literally
looking at these panels and the the animation is so good,
especially as I saw like what the dinosaur is supposed
to look like, versus like, how oh that.
Speaker 3: Was one of my videos. I made a video doing it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it probably was. It probably was. It probably was you.
And I'm like, oh, okay, that is a big difference.
Speaker 1: But it's a huge difference difference. But okay, let's get
into just dear difference.
Speaker 3: People are like, oh, this how knows the show that
you don't you don't draw because there's a huge difference
between making you know, still pictures like a comic book
and having these characters move animate. But we see it
all the time. Avatar the Last Airbender has fucking top notch,
top tier quality, and those fight scenes in or Legend
of Kora or again Castlevania, Like, I'll be fine waiting
a little bit longer in between seasons to get great
animation and then else wait anyway, So yeah, granted they're
trying to make it come out every year, like once
a year, but like, I'll wait a year and a
half or whatever if we can get a little bit
better animation, because you know, yeah, yeah, the weight is
gonna piss me off, but then once it's out, we
got it. But now it's like it's out, there's no
improving it later on.
Speaker 2: Honestly, all they have to do is stop getting, like
you said, all these expensive guest stars and they can
put that money into animation.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, I don't need Grant as much as I
love her, I don't need Dena Guarrera to voice that
little green alley and that we see like one time.
Speaker 1: Yeah for like five minutes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all the electricity, I want it, And I'm like, okay, girl.
Speaker 3: I'm like, we need do we need Deny Guarrera for that?
Speaker 1: Like a legend?
Speaker 2: Like they're capturing like black Marvel actors like Infinity Swoons.
But whatever, I'm it is what it is. I'm so happy.
I love the season. Better animation would be great. Let's
just quickly go over like Daredevil, because this was I
feel like this was more of a return to form.
I watched the original Daredevil's series and The Punisher after
watching like the first episode of Daredevil on Disney Plus,
So for me, season one wasn't as bad as like
the True I guess true Daredevil fans are talking about
which the Daredevil class will be at forda super con,
so I'm nervous. I'm like, I hope I get to
talk to them, and I hope I do it justice
or even if I can just ask some fun questions
like who's your favorite black superhero, I'd be glad just
to like be in the room with them. But Daredevil
season two for probably.
Speaker 3: Just gonna Sayluke Cage because they're like, I'm white, I
don't know a black.
Speaker 1: Fan, right, like okay or whispers?
Speaker 2: I really like, I won't lie. I like season one
better than Season two only because.
Speaker 3: Wow, are you're talking about the Born Again or like, oh.
Speaker 2: Okay, because I will say Born Again is more true
to the original Netflix show. It really wasn't no no
time for nice fun like the Saint Patrick's Day episode
Daredevil doing lower cases like.
Speaker 1: It was just down to business. They were grimy.
Speaker 2: Uh, they were trying to get Fisk out of the
office Fisk is. It was also just so dark because
it's so close to the real world for me that
I'm like, damn, this is not like as fun anymore.
But I mean, I I liked it, It's just that
I liked season one better. How did you like Born
and Get in season two? And like, what what kind
of like surprised you or didn't surprise you or were
you let down in any way?
Speaker 3: Oh no, I like season two way better than season one.
I thought I enjoyed. I didn't hate season one, but
I definitely felt season one was very choppy and a
lot of and a lot.
Speaker 1: Of disney ish.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but but but I thought season season two was
a huge step up from that, of course, improving and
expanding on everything that happened in season one, and yeah,
it did feel close to home. But sometimes some of
the best art. And granted they filmed this way before
all the stuff that that's happening today, even kind of
like with the boys, like you know where where where
Homeland is trying to be God or whatever and releasing
that thing. But then even in real life, Trump released
that photo of him as.
Speaker 1: Jesus seem literally.
Speaker 3: Like the same, the same, Like they filmed this. They
filmed this years ago, so Eric Kripkey had no way
of knowing, and the episode didn't come out yet. It's
not like Trump got an early screening, so he also
had no way of knowing. But it's like it's gotten
to the point, you know, the saying where it's like
they say art imitates life. Now it's getting to the
point that life.
Speaker 2: Is imitating art and not in like the good and
not in a good way like that like the geeky,
cool fun way, like.
Speaker 3: You not not in a good way. So like yeah,
seeing like the anti vigilante task there basically ice yes,
and so like And and I always kind of wonder,
like I always say, like what do conservatives watch in
terms of like nerds, Like how do conservatives watch enjoy
like Star Wars or Daredevil or Superman it's like, you know,
these shows aren't for you, Like these superheroes would not
like you they were real. If they were real, like
they would think you are the bad guy. So I
always wonder like the cognitive disconnect because there are a
lot of conservatives that love Star like cause they're always
complaining about, oh, this show is going x Man is
gone woke. I'm like, have you never like very premise
of very premise of X Men is woke? Like what
are you talking about? Or like there was complaining about
Superman where they're talking about the anti Israel allegal Superman's
gone whoa what are you talking about? Like when Superman
first started, he was fighting billionaires and slum lords and
before he was fighting dark Side, he was helping people
pay their you know, stay in their apartments or whatever,
fighting anti fighting corruption and things like that. Like Superman's
been woke. So yeah, like I say, all have to say,
it's like, yeah, this season is a little close to home.
But like that's also what I appreciate about this season,
the commentary on you know, everything that's going on and
like fighting you know, the Kingpin and everything like that.
So like and the dark and how much darker this
season is compared to See because I'm like, I'm literally
wearing a shirt that says blood, sex, gore, and magic.
That's the stuff that I love in my fantasy. So
you know, make it blacker, make it gayer, make it bloodier.
That's my that's my thing.
Speaker 2: It was so bloody, and you know, I thought, you
know what, I do appreciate though, like Karen, like gang
Bear Karen. We get her back, and I love her
because one thing about her is she's gonna kill someone
and she's not gonna feel bad about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and even her clashing was mad a little bit.
It's like which which I And that's the one thing
about this season, Like it made me realize like a
lot of is no kill rule that a lot of
superheroes have it don't fly into said maybe in the
golden age of comics and things like I'm like, sometimes
some people got to die.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the only way that we can stop people.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like the Joker, Batman, Like Batman, you need to
kill this motherfucker, like cause he's playing with you. Yeah, Kingpin,
he needed to die.
Speaker 2: Like, like it's pissing me off, But I will say
it was a good season overall, and I like that
the comic book fans liked it more the people who
watched it on Netflix as they liked it more. So
I love to see people like enjoying things and I
didn't dislike it. I think that I like Bullseye the most.
Like his character is very interesting because it's like do
you really want to be redeemed? Or like are you
just crazy?
Speaker 3: And it's like a little bit of I think it's
a little bit of both, a little bit of column
a little bit of column B.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: I wish we got more Jack Jessica Jones did, like
as much as they were teasing and like advertising Jessica
Jones as a part of this season, we really ain't
get that much. That's what I was most excited about
for the season, is he just because I think out
of all the shows, Jessica Jones had the best first season.
Speaker 2: She did her little one two in the in the
second season, but she's coming. The Defenders are coming back
third season. Basically, yeah, they are, and I'm so excited
about that. Luke Cage is literally he appears in the finale.
I just think the crux of this is we finally
got Wilson Fisk out of the damn office. So we
understand what's going to be happening in Brand New Day,
but what his punishment is. I think that it is
a fate even worse than death because he is isolated
and he's on an island and Vanessa is finally gone,
the only person on Earth that wants this man. So
I'm wondering where do we see Wilson Fisk in general
in in the future, because I know that on into
the Spider Verse and and they want to stay out
of like the multiverse. But I hear that Fisk in general,
like he literally literally tries to move heaven and Earth,
and they're kind of like hints dropped throughout the season
that maybe he go searching for her like in another universe.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was the whole storyline of the first Spider
Man movie where his Kingpin's version of Vanessa died and
so he's trying to find another Vanessa in the multiverse.
I don't know if they're gonna do that because that's
literally the story of Spider Man into the Spider Verse.
I don't know if they're gonna take that same storyline
to try to do it again. But I don't know,
I feel like I kind of want next season to
like go away from the park, because like every season
of Daredevil was the punish you except for season two.
Season two is the hand, but every other season outside
of that as the punisher, I mean Kingpinn, Kingpin, king.
Speaker 1: Kin to say hold on because the punishment, I would like.
Speaker 3: No, not punish you, but King Kingpin. So like, let's
give somebody, Let's get somebody else.
Speaker 2: We need another big bad especially now that we have
the Defenders back.
Speaker 3: Of course, you're always gonna figure out a way to
throw in vincit Inafrio anyway, he's Vincent Diinofrio, which I
you know, I obviously I appreciate, which I which I respect,
But like, let's move away from Daredevil has other villains
that we can we can, oh, we have to. We
also got Lady We also got Lady Muse coming, which
I'm not I wasn't a big fan of what they'd
like the Heather Glenn character, I guess whatever, But like
we know Electures coming back. We saw the photos of
like her Grant at least as speculated because she's in
We saw photos of her working out. She's in New York,
dared Nevil's filming in New York. We saw the hand
in Spider Man brand new Deak, so it's like Electrics
coming back.
Speaker 2: So naturally, so I'm I'm excited about that. I did
not see that part about Electra, but I saw the
part about the Defenders, and I'm like, okay, cool, like
excited about that. But how is Matt gonna get out
of jail? Like at this point, like is he just
gonna defend himself?
Speaker 3: Like what do we somebody gonna have to break him up.
If it was smart, they would have she halt because
we saw him show up as she has season one
and who who else is a lawyer? Yes she has
to come, Yes she hopped to come and defend him.
Speaker 2: And that would be a little bit awkward, and I
want punish her back because let's just get into one
last kill, which was it wasn't what I expected, but
it was kind of like in a Moose bousche to,
like putting him back as a main in like the MCU,
because we're going to see him obviously on Spider Man.
It was a very grounded, a complete episode, like from
beginning to end, we see kind of he's on the
edge of not wanting to be here on earth. He
visits his you know, his dead daughter and wife. He
is hallucinating, he needs to take his medicine basically, and
he is walking around and just complete and total chaos.
And he's okay because he feels like, Okay, I killed everyone,
I got my revenge, but I'm not satisfied. I don't
want to be here on this earth anymore. And now,
you know, we see that the whole neighborhood is just
completely fucked and they're like, basically, six o'clock, it's your ass,
and they show up and I'm like, okay, what is
he going to do? Is he going to take them down?
Are we going to get introduced to another character? Are
we bringing someone back? But no, like he handles business,
and not only does he handle business, he also is just.
Speaker 1: Like this is exactly what I needed. And we see
him come back.
Speaker 2: And at the beginning of the show, this this man's
dog gets taken and killed, and.
Speaker 1: I'm like, why did the punisher let this hat? Like
what is he?
Speaker 2: And at least you know, the dog gone, We can't
bring him back, but we got his hat back. And
also he said that the hat is not the only
thing that he took from me, and Punisher just gets
to work in that as another fine man.
Speaker 3: Just yeah, saw that the moment of him working out
in the beginning, I was like, damn.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I love it.
Speaker 2: Three more seasons like eleven more, give me a little
bit more, like I don't care, Like it's amazing. I
think that I'm not used to one shots. I haven't
watched many of the one shots. I don't know if
that's usually what they do, but I can appreciate this.
And I also I just love the Punisher as a
character because a lot of the people who walk around
in real life, especially in Florida. I don't know if
you've seen it when you were in Florida, they just
walk around with that punish your skull thinking that, oh
yeah they're badass and Blue Lives Matter and all this shit.
And I'm like, the Punisher would actually hate all of you.
And it showed in season one when the Punisher saw
all these like fanboys.
Speaker 3: That's actually one one criticism about what happened, or a
big criticism of mine, was season one where Punishers saw
all those people in the Antivignce Vigilante task Force wearing
his symbol. I don't think the writing for that was
a long as it should have been of him calling
those people out, because like you say, people do do
that in real life cops wearing the Punisher symbol and
things like that. But it's like, no, the Punisher, if
he was real, you'd be one of the ones that
he'd want to kill. He's not on your side. And
that was a perfect moment of them like divulging that
and dictating that, but they didn't. He all he really
said was you think you know my story, you think
you know who I am. But he didn't really say
anything like fuck y'all, Like.
Speaker 1: He didn't see him like really like get you.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I wanted to see him cut them, cut them
a new asshole, and they didn't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think that that is definitely a fair
criticism because he didn't say enough. But I think that
you know, they were focused on a lot, and like
I think there was like different writers during season one
if I'm not if I'm if I'm remembering it right,
But that is definitely a fair criticism. But I feel
like especially after what we have been shown with him
being involved in producing and writing The Punisher and and
the way that the series is going in general. I
never thought that on Disney Plus we will see a
dog get killed just like that.
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, exactly, Yeah, this was glory. This is
probably the most bloody and glory thing that's on Disney Plus.
And I was just like Disney, Like what, It's a
brand new day for Disney Plus. Sure is so because
this was like John Wick two levels.
Speaker 2: Of violence, right, and it's literally fifty minutes and I'm like, okay, so,
but when are we going to get to it? And
then once they get to it, it is crazy. And
I will say, the little girl that made the flower thing,
y'all better not touch that flower number one? And I
just feel like she is we might be seeing little
babies and daya there, Like I can't wait to see
like where her career goes. I can't wait to see
what the Punisher does in Spider Man. I'm so excited.
You know what's to come in the Marvel universe, in
the Invincible Universe and all these geeky things that I
wasn't able to cover because I was too busy talking
about Summerhouse every damn day. Is there anything coming out
that we should be looking forward to Like I know,
obviously the next thing in the MCU would be Spider
Man and also the X Men animated and then the
Spider Man animated series. Is there anything that you can
tell us about it, like the premise, like what's happening
from what you know to be true? What's happening in
the Spider Man Brand New Day.
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously I haven't seen the movie Hotter, but
but basically like just from me, based based off what
I based off what I could tell, Like the rumor
is Jean Gray is in the movie, and you know
the moment in the trailer were like it looked like
these people were being possessed. There's people are suspecting that
Jean Gray's being manipulated and so he has to save her.
And there's a moment that Spider Man is jumping towards
the hand and it's just him and the trailer. It's
like a shot.
Speaker 1: It's like a huge poster, isn't the poster or yeah,
like that.
Speaker 3: There's there are people. And this is my speculation too,
that Hulk and Daredevil are in that shot with them,
just like they did with No Way Home Sam exact
shot with him fighting a sinister six, but it was
just it was just Tom Holland. But then we see
No Way Home and it's like the two Spider told
me Maguire Andrew Guy. It's literally the same shot, yes,
but just a different movie. So I'm likes especially the hand.
Who else fights the hand? Daredubel. We also see Spider
Man in prison. Who's in prison right now? Daredevil? Who's
who's he gonna have to break out of prison? Daredubl?
And then who we see in the trailer the Hulk
or Bruce Banner rather, so it's gonna be Bruce Banner.
It's gonna be And then also Funko released a toy
of the Hulk, so like the Hulk is in this movie,
Daredevil's in this movie, and we saw punishers in this
movie whose friends were publisher Dareduvil, something like Dareduvil's in
this movie. And who was Spider Man's lawyer, yeah, and
No Way Home Matt Murdoch. And then he just revealed
his identity to everybody. He's like, wait, just oh shit,
my lawyer, he's dead. That's how he was able to
catch that brick.
Speaker 1: So like, it's gonna be so fun. I can't wait
for this.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm excited about I'm excited about Brand New
I'm excited about Brand New Day. I'm excited about X Men,
My Adventures with Superman. It's coming out this month again,
like I mentioned, the Vampireless stat Vision Quest is coming
out in October or whatever. Which is this supposed to
be the end of the trilogy of like the Wanda
trilogy started with Wanda Vision and Doctor changed the Multiverse
of Madness and Agatha all along, and now Vision Quest
and then of course Doomsday.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Doomsday.
Speaker 2: And then on the DC side, I know we got
clay Face, clay Face, Supergirl, Yeah, Supergirl, and then Batman's
who just released like the cast list, which I don't
know how I feel about Sebastian Stam being with such
a major character in the Batman two when you are
still Buckie and you're a politician for some reason.
Speaker 3: Yeah, part of me is like a little annoyed at
like this constant Marvel to DC pipe, Marvel to DC
and Marvel to DC pipeline, like they keep casting each other,
like Sebastian stans Winter Soldier, but then he's also gonna
be Harvey Dent.
Speaker 1: Uh freaking Scarlett Ohanson's Yeah.
Speaker 3: Scarlett Johanses is black widow. Now they're also casting her
something else. Uh like they like it's like I get it.
That was like, like there are new actors out there,
Like stop casting the same people over and over again.
Speaker 2: Like I don't I don't mind if it's like a
biner role. But it's also like but still like there
have been Yeah, because they're so active in literally.
Speaker 3: One of one of the one of the things that
we love about Heated Rivalry, not just the show, but
like it's these two random unknown actors that we've never
seen before.
Speaker 1: Give people a chance.
Speaker 3: Yeah, give people a chance we can act as a chance.
Speaker 2: Well, it's been such a joy having you you on
the podcast. Thank you so much for coming. Can you
tell the people where to find you and if you
have anything coming up, any reviews that we should be
looking forward to. Obviously plug anything that you got going on,
and obviously it will be posted below so you can
show support.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, you can find me all across social media.
Black gay comic gee, because I'm black, I'm gay. I
like comics, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram threads. I'm on Twitter as well,
but I don't really tweet but mostly mostly threads.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is it.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm going to see Obsession this weekend. I
heard really good things about that, so I'll talk you
talking about that. Of course, next month is the Vampireless
stat so that'll be all throughout my timeline, you know,
talk about that, my adventures, my my adventures a Superman,
everything that we was just talking about.
Speaker 1: He's gonna catch up on the Boys, so because we talked, Oh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I I gotta I'm gonna catch up on the Boys.
I'm like you before, I'm like four episodes behind, so
I'm gonna catch up. I'm gonna catch up.
Speaker 2: Shock to me because it's well, in my opinion, is good.
But you know, it's gonna be hard to wrap up
a series. It's always hard to wrap up a series
in general. But I hope it just doesn't disappoint too
many people. I know that I'm gonna love it, just
because I have never read the comics, and I.
Speaker 3: The comic The Boy's comic is try to show like
it's nothing. The show was way better.
Speaker 2: I like the filler episode of the Boys where they
had it from different perspectives and I.
Speaker 3: Don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: Episode, I won't be splaying it, but but.
Speaker 3: I heard there was a one shot episode and people
got upset about it because it was one shot. But
that kind of goes back to my point of like,
when we only got eight episode television and you're doing
these one shots. We don't have time fordence because there's
only eight episodes. But if there was like a fifteen episode,
granted we don't have to go back to twenty two episodes,
but at least is over it's a fifteen episode season,
we could do like those one offs, especially.
