Speaker 3: lot of international football, so soccer for our Americans here.
Speaker 3: Kansas City is a host city for the World Cup.
Speaker 3: We had the joys of watching Messy live in Arrowhead
Speaker 3: two days ago. So yeah, I mean that the the
Speaker 3: man was just on fire, absolutely killing. It had the
Speaker 3: hat trick. I was getting text from friends of mine
Speaker 3: who don't ever watch soccer, including my mom, was texting
Speaker 3: me to say, oh my god, I feel like I'm
Speaker 3: watching history and I'm like this, we welcome to my

Speaker 1: get recognized for one thing or another.
Speaker 2: You know, it always throws me.
Speaker 1: But some someone out there was and might be listening
Speaker 1: at that point you have dout Chris.
Speaker 2: Chris and I have a common name.
Speaker 1: I'm not necessarily the most immediate person they're talking about me.

Speaker 1: you're you're Chris from Marvel Alliance and Braving the Boys,

Speaker 1: All right, So yes, we did get We've been hearing
Speaker 1: rumors for a while, leaks and everything for this next trailer,
Speaker 1: A spider Man. We knew this was going to be
Speaker 1: the trailer that was gonna say tickets were on sale,
Speaker 1: and tickets did go on sale. Also early access tickets
Speaker 1: went on sale. David, did you secure your tickets and
Speaker 1: how many tickets and showings have you secured?
Speaker 2: I leave the listeners to know how committed you are
Speaker 2: to this movie.
Speaker 3: I currently have two showings, one on Wednesday at seven
Speaker 3: I secured four tickets to that, and then I have
Speaker 3: a showing on Thursday at five thirty. Our lovely friend
Speaker 3: Brent will be joining me for both of those. And
Speaker 3: you know, if spouse's girlfriends other people, if we decide
Speaker 3: to let them join, then technically they have tickets too,
Speaker 3: But it's really just about me and Brent and our experience.
Speaker 3: So I have a the early showing on Wednesday and
Speaker 3: then five thirty, so I will technically be done right
Speaker 3: in time for if we decide to continue to go
Speaker 3: live on Thursday, or if we do like normal where
Speaker 3: we push it back to Friday. If we end up
Speaker 3: pushing it back to Friday, then I will probably have
Speaker 3: had three viewings by that point. I guarantee it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right now, we're we have the potential.
Speaker 1: Because I also was able to secure just by the
Speaker 1: skin of my teeth. I had to wait an hour
Speaker 1: to get into the queue for the showing on Wednesday night,
Speaker 1: and luckily it wasn't I did have the seat I wanted.
Speaker 1: I was able to select it, and then if and
Speaker 1: Dango just was not letting me select us, I had
Speaker 1: to go back in and out three times apparently lost
Speaker 1: that seat.
Speaker 2: I had to go to the road in front of me.
Speaker 1: But I had secured a seat for Thursday night that
Speaker 1: to give me that Wednesday night early showing, So there
Speaker 1: is a good potential, a strong potential that we will
Speaker 1: get the review episode out on our normal time, well
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit later, so we as we get
Speaker 1: closer to that, we'll have to kind of work out
Speaker 1: out with David, also working out with our brethren over
Speaker 1: at geek first, because I know they're going to do
Speaker 1: their review also that night, so we're got to coordinate
Speaker 1: schedules and make sure that we're fair to them and.
Speaker 2: See if we can make this work out.
Speaker 1: But either way we are going to be doing our
Speaker 1: review episode. We're going to be very excited to see it.
Speaker 1: It's been a while else since I've gotten early access.
Speaker 1: I think the last early access showing I was able
Speaker 1: to get was The Batman Part two.
Speaker 4: So last one that I had was.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, it's maybe a day it was,
Speaker 1: maybe it's this is only a day early, but still
Speaker 1: early as early. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Last one that I had, again also with Britt was
Speaker 3: Guardians of the Galaxy Volume three, So that's the last
Speaker 3: one that I've gotten in an early showing, and but
Speaker 3: that yeah, I'm super super excited, like I waited now
Speaker 3: as well. On Fandango then had so many problems because
Speaker 3: you had to be in Amazon's Prime subscriber in order
Speaker 3: to get it. Then I got in, I clicked the button,
Speaker 3: I was logged, and then it said I wasn't a subscriber,
Speaker 3: so I had to relog in, put me back in
Speaker 3: the queue for another eleven minutes. I'm over here freaking out,
Speaker 3: but it ended up working.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of wondered saying it for an hour
Speaker 1: wait ended up probably before I figured it was all gone.
Speaker 1: But luckily nope, there actually were still some decent seats,
Speaker 1: but probably they're all gone right now. But all right,
Speaker 1: so let us break down the kind of I'll say,
Speaker 1: you know, one would say the second trailer is supposed
Speaker 1: to be the story trailer, and typically sometimes they reveal
Speaker 1: a lot more than we would like them to reveal.
Speaker 1: I have to say before we even start watching it
Speaker 1: as a whole. I've seen this about two or three times.
Speaker 1: I don't think they still revealed a lot that I
Speaker 1: feel like.
Speaker 2: They've ruined anything.
Speaker 1: You know, there's at least, I mean, I'll get to
Speaker 1: say it right now, there's still no tombstone. We know
Speaker 1: tombstones in this movie. We have not seen our first
Speaker 1: image of Tombstone at all.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that this one spoiled. And I
Speaker 3: mentioned it on discord within the Geek Versa discord, somebody
Speaker 3: had asked if this would be spoilerific, and I was like,
Speaker 3: you know what, It's got some more action scenes, but
Speaker 3: it doesn't spoil anything, which I think is great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very impressive. So all right, so let us
Speaker 1: start doing this. As always our the volume is going
Speaker 1: to be down and for those watching it, it's you know,
Speaker 1: we'll stop at different points. So we get Spider Man
Speaker 1: kind of rolling in here and kind of you know,
Speaker 1: basically his power set is you know, not necessarily acting.
Speaker 2: He's like what's going on, So it's kind of coming
Speaker 2: in and out.
Speaker 1: Now we've seen you know, there's a history in the
Speaker 1: comics and there's also a history in the movies with
Speaker 1: Spider Man of his his powers kind of going out
Speaker 1: of whack. Yeah, you know, its famously and Spider Man too,
Speaker 1: you know, his commitment to Spider Man in his mind
Speaker 1: is kind of causing that, which again I appreciate.
Speaker 2: We've seen that.
Speaker 3: Which set up the twenty year joke of oh my.
Speaker 1: Back, Oh my back, and we see him getting nailed
Speaker 1: to the wall by our first look at Scorpion. In
Speaker 1: this he's played by the illustrious Michael met Michael Mondo,
Speaker 1: Mando Mondo, I can't I can't remember.
Speaker 2: I think it's Mando.
Speaker 1: He's reprising his role of his brief cameo from Homecoming,
Speaker 1: playing mac Argan. The history of mac Argon in the comics,
Speaker 1: he was a criminal and Jjo mc jamison was able
Speaker 1: to fund him and put him in this kind of
Speaker 1: scorpion suit to take down Spider Man. Well, at some
Speaker 1: point or another, he also hates Spider Man, and he
Speaker 1: also tries to get revenge on j Joe mc jamison
Speaker 1: that has tried to cheat him at many different times.
Speaker 1: We've also he is my least favorite iteration of when
Speaker 1: he does don the Venom symbia, that is my least
Speaker 1: favorite one of Venom.
Speaker 2: I don't like it. I don't care much for it.
Speaker 1: I think mac Argan is a good character, I just
Speaker 1: don't care for him as Venom.
Speaker 2: Stick to Scorpions.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so yes, this is a big theme right
Speaker 1: now going on, especially in the trailer throughout this movie.
Speaker 2: You know he.
Speaker 1: You know, we see Peter kind of going to the
Speaker 1: Black Eyes and so we're gonna talk about that like
Speaker 1: Peter's kind of animalistic instincts are taking like over his
Speaker 1: his arachnid instincts, as you were. One thing I want
Speaker 1: to go back to with Scorpion is I want to
Speaker 1: ask you this question, David, because like this tech. Now,
Speaker 1: we saw in Homecoming Adrian Tombs was getting his tech
Speaker 1: from you know, the Battle of New York all the
Speaker 1: letsovers from this. Could Scorpion have gotten this tech on
Speaker 1: the black market from after the Battle of Vangame Now
Speaker 1: we saw that in underground dealings and auctions and Hawkeye.
Speaker 2: So what do you think did he make this? Did
Speaker 2: he buy this?
Speaker 1: Or is this kind of tech that's still from the
Speaker 1: battle of basically a battle of Earth against Santos.
Speaker 3: I am hoping hoping that this tech was given to
Speaker 3: him by a certain corporation that we really have not
Speaker 3: seen or heard yet from in the MCU.
Speaker 2: And who would that be?
Speaker 3: I am hoping that these are where we first get
Speaker 3: our first seedings into this version of Ozcorp.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, that's good, that'd be good.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so I love that we are getting this
Speaker 1: kind of look underneath the mask, you know, We've seen
Speaker 1: it with Tony Stark. We've seen a lot of different things,
Speaker 1: but like there's a big theme, particularly in this trailer
Speaker 1: of like look at the eyes, and I think that
Speaker 1: we're they're really showing this is the sense of his
Speaker 1: loneliness and he's becoming less human the more we're focusing
Speaker 1: on it. You know, we see his mutation taking an
Speaker 1: evolutionary leap. And I said the word. I said it mutation.
Speaker 3: And that's been a running theme with Spider Man across
Speaker 3: all his movies, is the loneliness that it takes to
Speaker 3: be Spider Man. And so at this point, just having
Speaker 3: him so low and then he's going through this moment
Speaker 3: where he's all lone. The eyes turning dark just gives
Speaker 3: that extra.
Speaker 1: Layer and then he kind of like, you know, he
Speaker 1: says he gargain, says he missed me. Spidey feels like
Speaker 1: lose mind. And then he kind of loses it. Like
Speaker 1: his his strength goes.
Speaker 2: Like to to the epic level, like you know.
Speaker 1: I'll take his line from uh, this is final tap,
Speaker 1: but he goes up to eleven, you know, and he
Speaker 1: takes him down, you know, and yeah, and this.
Speaker 3: This isn't I don't know my own strength situation. This
Speaker 3: is a he just straight up keeves him out of there.
Speaker 2: He went up straight on Hulk.
Speaker 1: Hulk locied him and uh, you know the puny scorpion
Speaker 1: and he recognized it too.
Speaker 2: I'm totally out of control.
Speaker 1: I also like the red tint, you know, from the
Speaker 1: back light hitting his black eyes. So you know, this
Speaker 1: is we'll get into this because this is going to
Speaker 1: lead into what our David has selected as our next
Speaker 1: com book Club. We'll kind of put that out there,
Speaker 1: you know, when we get we get to that point,
Speaker 1: we're ready to reveal it. But this, I believe I
Speaker 1: want to say that this is probably going to be
Speaker 1: you know, we we've heard that the opening montage is
Speaker 1: going to be Peter going to be kind of taking
Speaker 1: down these kind of d listers at this point, and
Speaker 1: I think this, you know, the scorpion fot is going
Speaker 1: to be in the beginning of I think it's going
Speaker 1: to be the kind of the culmination of Peter's taking
Speaker 1: down of these characters.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I could. I could definitely see that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we get you know, him watching the Instagram
Speaker 1: live feed of his former friends.
Speaker 2: We got MJ, we got ned.
Speaker 3: Now here's an interesting thing. They mentioned that this is
Speaker 3: their last semester at MIT. In the last trailer, we
Speaker 3: had him watching the stream from their going into their
Speaker 3: first semester at MIT. So he's been sitting lonely watching
Speaker 3: them throughout their entire college career.
Speaker 1: Well, that's what I want to bring out too, is
Speaker 1: that you know he's We're seeing this throughout these trailers.
Speaker 1: We're seeing this very big push pull either embracing his
Speaker 1: aggressive nature like Frank Castle, or is he going to
Speaker 1: repress the nature like Bruce Banner. That's gonna be kind
Speaker 1: of a big theme. But it's also like he doesn't
Speaker 1: have a life like he is Spider Man. That's it,
Speaker 1: Like there is no like when the world forgot about
Speaker 1: Peter Parker, he's also forgotten about Peter Parker.
Speaker 2: Like that's all he does. I would love to know
Speaker 2: what he does.
Speaker 1: For money to afford any kind of apartment that he's
Speaker 1: living in, even if it's the shadiest kind, like he
Speaker 1: has to afford some point. I'm very curious of how
Speaker 1: they deal with that or mention that in this movie.
Speaker 1: And it is interesting the the webshooter is being kind
Speaker 1: of magnetic as a slap on there at that point.
Speaker 1: That's that's an interesting style of I've always gone back
Speaker 1: and forth whether the the webshoot underneath the costume or
Speaker 1: on top of the costume.
Speaker 2: It really doesn't bother me either way because either.
Speaker 1: Way, if someone with a huge grip can crush them,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter whether they're on the outside or inside.
Speaker 3: And that web shooter is huge. But also when you
Speaker 3: think about it, like if this was real life having
Speaker 3: to have cartridges that could hold that much web, it
Speaker 3: would be that huge. But when I.
Speaker 1: First saw this as like, ann, those are going to
Speaker 1: change out those cartridges too, So.
Speaker 3: Yeah, those are some huge web cartridges, yeap.
Speaker 1: So but he's putting on he's trying to use them.
Speaker 1: But then they launched, the web launchers launched but with webbing,
Speaker 1: and he sees looking at his wrist organic webshooters. You know,
Speaker 1: this is always a big thing in the cop book community.
Speaker 1: When Peter Parker got them in the comics, and then
Speaker 1: you know in the in the Sam Raimi Spider Man
Speaker 1: movies that his Spider Man also had her game shooters.
Speaker 1: That's that's you know, you're either on one side of
Speaker 1: the aisle. It really didn't bother me. It was a
Speaker 1: big change, and I think at first I was on
Speaker 1: the side of wait a minute, you know, I understand
Speaker 1: what you're trying to do. But that's one of the
Speaker 1: things that made Peter Parker kind of he's a scientist.
Speaker 1: He had to make his tech and things like that.
Speaker 1: So when you took that away, he didn't take away
Speaker 1: the scientist thing, but it was kind of like, man, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're going in a different direction with this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it didn't bother me when I was originally watching
Speaker 3: the movies, and I didn't and after a while I
Speaker 3: completely forgot about it until we get to Andrew Garfield's
Speaker 3: version where he's actually tinkering and making them and experimenting
Speaker 3: with it, and I was like, oh, I did miss
Speaker 3: this aspect of Spider Man. But there's a whole generation,
Speaker 3: a whole sect of fans who didn't know that he
Speaker 3: had webshooters because all they knew was Toby's Spider Man.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So you see him going to find a doctor manner
Speaker 1: and saying, you found a way to press you're mutating DNA,
Speaker 1: and he shows him this massive risk gauntlet.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna call it. Yeah, you see me without this run.
Speaker 3: Banner with another bad joke every appearance.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's kind of awkward, they said, So you can
Speaker 1: get rid of the bad aspects, and Bruce puts it
Speaker 1: to him like this, and how do you decide what
Speaker 1: parts of nature are bad? Yeah, getting manhandled, throwing into
Speaker 1: all around the city. Now, thank you geek first guys
Speaker 1: for never me seeing this scene ever. And I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be with you laughing at the soon and we get
Speaker 1: with this very smirky look of Bruce Banner saying you're
Speaker 1: not one of my students, are you?
Speaker 2: And yeah, so.
Speaker 1: Watch geek first understand what that means. Humorous at that point.
Speaker 1: But uh, but so we get this July, you know, okay,
Speaker 1: so we get another look at our Oh god, I
Speaker 1: just break down the actor's name.
Speaker 3: Oh Jesus, Chris, you know what. Had you not just
Speaker 3: asked me, I'd been like, oh yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm looking it up real quick. And we are, Yes,
Speaker 1: tramill Tilman. I knew his last name with Tillman. I
Speaker 1: just wanted to know the person. Yes, Trammeil Tilman, so
Speaker 1: I knew it wasn't a literate name. So uh, we
Speaker 1: knew he was going to be in charge of the
Speaker 1: Department of Damage Control, and but we didn't. There are
Speaker 1: a lot of things going aboud about who it was
Speaker 1: he exactly Well, it wasn't until kind of the end
Speaker 1: credits over close captioning that it was given away that
Speaker 1: he is playing the character of William Metzger. William Metzger
Speaker 1: is an anti mutant activist.
Speaker 2: And so you know.
Speaker 1: So Following the Middletown incident, Metzger used television appearances and
Speaker 1: rallies to push his militia into the spotlight to broaden
Speaker 1: recruitment with a message of filtering down to the communities
Speaker 1: such as Freeport High School. After the violence out of
Speaker 1: Freeport football game, Metzger was again featured on television, framing
Speaker 1: mutants as a national crisis requiring government action. From the
Speaker 1: militia's base in Trenton, New Jersey, Metzger presented himself as
Speaker 1: a credible political figure and outlined a strategy for targeting
Speaker 1: high profile mutants through the press, later executing it on
Speaker 1: a talk show talk show Charlie Rose Charlie Ross by
Speaker 1: publicly singling out Warren Worthington the Third who was warning
Speaker 1: Worthington the Third.
Speaker 3: Angel, Yes for All of ours YEP.
Speaker 1: As his visibility increased, he hinted at programs such as
Speaker 1: the Vista that the militia had federal support. Then met
Speaker 1: with Agent Kin alongside Arthur and authored Cooperation, turning over
Speaker 1: the militia's intelligence on suspected mutants and tying it to
Speaker 1: technology recovered from Bolivia tras robot Ah, there we are
Speaker 1: the Trenton Project. At the secret facility, Metzger and Kine
Speaker 1: oversaw a program centered on converting his Arthur program to
Speaker 1: the anti Musan weapon. Metzger observed Arthur restrained and in
Speaker 1: a transformation rig and praised the work publicly while maintaining
Speaker 1: the media posture, and denied federal involvement. Anteased national political
Speaker 1: ambitions he did he is no longer among the living
Speaker 1: in the comic book community. During the project's final test,
Speaker 1: Metzger watched from a control room with Kin as Arthur's
Speaker 1: attacked captive mutants and attempted to direct Arthur's actions as
Speaker 1: the situation escalated.
Speaker 3: There's one man who really doesn't like it when you
Speaker 3: attacked active mutants.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 1: Exactly after Magneto intervened and Arthur was killed, Metzger was
Speaker 1: confronted and killed when Magneto.
Speaker 2: Hurled him into space, after.
Speaker 1: Which the anti mutant militia began to unravel without his leadership.
Speaker 2: And we're gonna put leadership in quotes. So yes.
Speaker 1: He his first appearance with X Men Children of the
Speaker 1: Atom number one in September nineteen ninety nine. His final
Speaker 1: appearance was X Men Children of the Atom August of
Speaker 1: two thousand. So that is who mister Tilman is portraying
Speaker 1: in this. I think it is rather an interesting choice.
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, being an anti mutant character
Speaker 1: in the comics played by an African American.
Speaker 2: I wonder if they're going to kind of confront that,
Speaker 2: you know, it is very interesting. I think.
Speaker 1: He is a great actor. I've loved everything that I
Speaker 1: have seen him in. Like I said, even though I
Speaker 1: blaked on it and blaked on his name at this day,
Speaker 1: tremal Tillman isn't outstanding actor. But I thought it was
Speaker 1: an interesting choice, being that once we finally figured out
Speaker 1: who he was playing, was like, hmm, anti mutnet this
Speaker 1: are they going to deal with this or is this
Speaker 1: going to be you know, not only is a good actor,
Speaker 1: but we're going to confront this. I think that would
Speaker 1: be a very bold and interesting decision. You know, what
Speaker 1: do you think I think it is.
Speaker 3: It will be interesting if this is more than just
Speaker 3: a use of a name, and they are going to
Speaker 3: you know, addressed you know, his position and his stance
Speaker 3: on being against another thing, because you know, we had
Speaker 3: our Alley gories with the Mutants and you know, the
Speaker 3: racism and things like that and going against that, Like,
Speaker 3: how are they going to address that or if this
Speaker 3: is just using the name, I will be interested to
Speaker 3: see how they're going to handle that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's basically kind of saying like we're going
Speaker 1: against enemy that we can't see, can't control. But I
Speaker 1: think he is the main villain of this movie. I
Speaker 1: think he's the one that we're gonna end up, which
Speaker 1: will be kind of, I'm not gonna say, totally disappointing,
Speaker 1: but you know, it's it's an interesting you know, I
Speaker 1: always I want to see like a main list Spider
Speaker 1: Man villain. But you know, again, I'm not gonna judge
Speaker 1: a book but before I even get a chance to
Speaker 1: read it. But you know, I think he's definitely gonna
Speaker 1: be one of the villains of this movie. I don't
Speaker 1: know if he's gonna be the main villain, but I
Speaker 1: have a feeling that he is going to control who
Speaker 1: Sadie Sink's character is going to be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we.
Speaker 1: Get our our first look at Sadie Sink in this hood.
Speaker 3: Put it up. Yeah, we still do. There's a lot
Speaker 3: of you know, is she isn't. She's floating around about
Speaker 3: who the character is exactly. But you know, I am
Speaker 3: reserving that until they actually he put it on camera
Speaker 3: and say this is this person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, considering that, you know, I'll mention it when we
Speaker 1: get to that part of the trailer.
Speaker 2: But we get a lot of destruction.
Speaker 1: We get this kind of huge, kind of pulse coming
Speaker 1: out of Roosevelt Island. I wonder if they're going to
Speaker 1: do like in the comics or turning Roosevelt Island into
Speaker 1: another superhero and superhero prison.
Speaker 2: You know, I wonder.
Speaker 1: But the only people that are affect woop. I didn't
Speaker 1: mean to jump ahead that much, I won't. You know,
Speaker 1: only Spider Man and Frank are not affected. So I
Speaker 1: find that interesting because even you know, he has called
Speaker 1: out that he's not affected by this. Then we get
Speaker 1: like something become consciousness is bouncing around to people.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it looks like Peter in his suit has
Speaker 3: a way of tracking the trajectory of it. I don't
Speaker 3: know if that's in real time, if that's more of
Speaker 3: a after the fact, it's it's noticing the change in people.
Speaker 1: M and we see him that we saw on the
Speaker 1: other trailer, the uh you know, apparently this is Ned's
Speaker 1: trying to figure out who Spider is, his his reintroduction
Speaker 1: to MJ in the Flesh, and she's moving on with
Speaker 1: hair life saying you don't know each other. It's saying,
Speaker 1: you know, Spider Man, you okay, you get rid of
Speaker 1: that monster. So we see the conscience going back for us.
Speaker 1: So what I want to point out here is whoever
Speaker 1: Sadie Singh's character is, is it going to be this
Speaker 1: big first introduction of the MCUs X men. If you've
Speaker 1: seen previous episode, I'm not going to say it again,
Speaker 1: check it out.
Speaker 2: You've heard the rumors.
Speaker 1: Could Sadie Singh's character be the one who eventually causes
Speaker 1: MJ to remember who Peter is.
Speaker 3: I I think that that is a very good thought process,
Speaker 3: especially when this person says, I think I might go
Speaker 3: see MJ. And so you know, and there's another point
Speaker 3: in here where Spider Man and MJ have an interaction
Speaker 3: and MJ's completely calm, like she just felt at peace
Speaker 3: around him.
Speaker 1: A few people in the chat, we got bears Layers saying,
Speaker 1: I remember when I first saw Toby Spider Man. I
Speaker 1: was so frustrated when then it had you know, webshooters.
Speaker 1: I love the last second cartridge swap. And then we've
Speaker 1: got a new person in the chat, san Ju saying,
Speaker 1: the themes of the movie seem to be depression, loneliness, mutation,
Speaker 1: absolutely absolutely, and then we see okay, so I want
Speaker 1: to say one more thing about this. This kind of
Speaker 1: bracelet or whatever that you know what Peter's holding up
Speaker 1: has now been crushed or damaged that's been suppressing Bruce's
Speaker 1: you know, Hulk. This I think this suppressor that Bruce has,
Speaker 1: I think this also could be used and co opted
Speaker 1: by the as a mutant gene suppressor, you know, in
Speaker 1: the sense of like the callers from the show. Well,
Speaker 1: I will give my thoughts on that when we come
Speaker 1: to factor fiction. Okay, all right, until we see Hulk
Speaker 1: finally hulking out. You know, how's it been, mister savage Hulk.
Speaker 3: I do like there a lot of I didn't know
Speaker 3: you could get that big because if you remember Peter's
Speaker 3: only interactions with Hulk, like one on one interactions because
Speaker 3: they were in New York at the same time, but
Speaker 3: they did not interact with each other. And then in
Speaker 3: the climactic fight, by this point he is already you know,
Speaker 3: the smart Hull key, so he's not as big then
Speaker 3: at Tony Stark's funeral, so he was never the big
Speaker 3: menacing Hulk in any of the time Spider Man's had
Speaker 3: direct interactions with them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so it's kind of hard to see, but
Speaker 1: some of the merchandise and things like that, we could
Speaker 1: be now officially getting confirmation that we are going to
Speaker 1: see Gray Hulk, which was the original form of the
Speaker 1: Hulk in the comics, and then it was returned to
Speaker 1: the in the very amazing Peter David run of the character,
Speaker 1: you know, freed from Banner's mental prison he put him
Speaker 1: in thanks to you know, thanks to probably Sadie Sink's character.
Speaker 1: So I know a lot of people are excited to
Speaker 1: finally see Hulk back. We see Spider Man basically saying,
Speaker 1: MJ come with me. You know if kind of I
Speaker 1: have in a Laddin moment, do you trust me? The
Speaker 1: whole New World? We see her meeting Frank, but yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Frank is protecting Sadie Sinkh's character in some way,
Speaker 1: shape or form. And we still don't know where the
Speaker 1: Hand fits into this. That's why I'm saying, like, I
Speaker 1: think the Hand has been working for is working at
Speaker 1: the behest of Tombstone. I do not see them working
Speaker 1: for or the D do O C. But this is
Speaker 1: where Spider Man kind of embraces his eracneed idea, his
Speaker 1: ractied background.
Speaker 3: It just goes and I love that that scene when
Speaker 3: he does this spinning takedown in just the webs everywhere.
Speaker 2: I'm like, yes, that's like you've you've.
Speaker 1: Reached your power up at that point, and you're gonna
Speaker 1: let it go right at the right moment to take
Speaker 1: down the bat, your ball.
Speaker 3: That's video game L two and R two at the
Speaker 3: same time, you're just unleashing your final move.
Speaker 2: Going going Spider Man berserker at that point.
Speaker 1: But you see Peter at the end visiting May's graves
Speaker 1: and Missy we heard her saying kind of the you know.
Speaker 2: What are you gonna get? Are you going to fall into?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: What kind of here we are you gonna be? Is
Speaker 2: he a cool shot of Hulk.
Speaker 1: Going down and you know, probably doing some collateral damage
Speaker 1: the Spider Man Brand New Day, He's gonna do some
Speaker 1: you know, we gotta do a jokey it is Spider Man,
Speaker 1: so doing something stretch.
Speaker 3: I don't like that. I'm not in high school anymore.
Speaker 2: Taking him down. So yeah, so tickets on sale now.
Speaker 2: But yeah, all in all, a good trailer. I wouldn't say, like.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, this this movie is gonna be like
Speaker 1: hitting on all levels. It didn't move my needle down.
Speaker 1: It didn't move my needle up too much more. I
Speaker 1: think it's I'm very impressed that they didn't give away
Speaker 1: really a lot of the story outside of saying, okay,
Speaker 1: Peter's gonna be dealing with some issues with his power set, loneliness,
Speaker 1: as Sandi said in the chat, depression kind of where's
Speaker 1: the balance in his life?
Speaker 2: But again, we have not seen Tombstone and another.
Speaker 1: You know thing that I think this movie is based
Speaker 1: off of, not just entitle only Brand New Day, you know,
Speaker 1: the post uh one after.
Speaker 2: One More Day.
Speaker 1: But I am very confident, just as you are confident,
Speaker 1: that this storyline that they also they are borrowing from
Speaker 1: is from the Other.
Speaker 3: Yes, there are a lot of moments in iconography from
Speaker 3: the Other that as you look through this trailer you're like, oh,
Speaker 3: I'm seeing things that. Yeah, that that feels like it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So but yeah, I'm excited.
Speaker 1: As we said, we've already gotten our tickets for it,
Speaker 1: so come the end of July, we are very excited
Speaker 1: for this.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a nice one when.
Speaker 1: We have a lead in at the beginning of the month.
Speaker 1: In just literally just two weeks, we get X MEN
Speaker 1: ninety seven returning as your shirt for those watching. David's
Speaker 1: got his x N ninety seven shirt on. I've got
Speaker 1: my three Peter's shirt in this. Yeah, and it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a good July coming up.
Speaker 2: So but yeah, hopefully you got your tickets.
Speaker 1: If you haven't got your tickets yet, I'm sure again,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be as we kind of talked about
Speaker 1: when I was on the vodka stream last week. We
Speaker 1: had mentioned in the sense of like where this movie
Speaker 1: has been placed, there's nothing really after Spider Man, Brandy
Speaker 1: Day comes out, like they will pretty much own August
Speaker 1: for the most part.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, so will.
Speaker 1: It make the billion dollars, I don't know. We'll have
Speaker 1: to see, you know, right now, it's tracking for two
Speaker 1: hundred million. The pre the uh you know, pre sale
Speaker 1: tickets are the best of twenty twenty six. It's definitely
Speaker 1: creeping up on different records. So right now they're currently
Speaker 1: predicting the first weekend at two hundred million, So I'd
Speaker 1: say that's a pretty big success.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they have perfect timing. At the end of July,
Speaker 3: you get that last little rush before school starts, you know,
Speaker 3: some fun with that. So yeah, they are I feeling
Speaker 3: that they are going to dominate.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: All right, So we're going to take our first ad
Speaker 1: break for breaking down the news for the week. So listeners,
Speaker 1: these ads help keep the lights on the Gee Ultimate
Speaker 1: Alliance Network. We don't get to chew what ads come on,
Speaker 1: and they can be a bit loud to give you
Speaker 1: that three count before they come on, three two one.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back and we are back, all right.
Speaker 1: So just one news item for the week. This is
Speaker 1: coming from Deadline. Beef creator director Lee Sung Jin reveals
Speaker 1: the X Men reboot update. So I have not seen
Speaker 1: I've seen the first season of Beef hopefully this summer,
Speaker 1: I will get a chance to binge the second season,
Speaker 1: but they were talking about Beef, but they couldn't pass
Speaker 1: up the opportunity to check in with him as he
Speaker 1: is one of the screenwriters for the MCU's X Men reboots.
Speaker 2: So Deadline says, before I.
Speaker 1: Let you go, you've taken a stab at Marvel before before,
Speaker 1: and now you're doing the next X Men movie. What
Speaker 1: is it like to do something that has the kinds
Speaker 1: of parameters after the freedoms you've had on Beef. He
Speaker 1: also helped punch up Thunderbolts asterisks as well, So Lee said, truthfully,
Speaker 1: it's the same parameters on this project, which is so exciting.
Speaker 1: I'd say there were actually more parameters on Thunderbolts because
Speaker 1: it was plugging into an existing arc and existing characters,
Speaker 1: whereas the X Men, Kevin Feige just wants to take
Speaker 1: big swing and start anew not to be beholden to
Speaker 1: any movies that have come before. And Jack Schreyer, excuse me,
Speaker 1: Jake Schreyer has such a clear vision in terms of
Speaker 1: wanting to get back to the character first and to
Speaker 1: what is exciting about those early Chris Claremont run Comics,
Speaker 1: which was all about team dynamics. There were a lot
Speaker 1: of soapi elements to those comics. We've been in the
Speaker 1: room every day together. Lewis Esposito are so dialed in
Speaker 1: and have such an incredible instincts that it's fun to
Speaker 1: just Blue Sky think.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: He continues on saying, I'm such a big fan that
Speaker 1: IP and comics. My dad and I every Saturday morning
Speaker 1: used to watch the show on television.
Speaker 2: So to be able to.
Speaker 1: Be around Marvel conference room and have every X Men
Speaker 1: character on the board and be able to spitball and
Speaker 1: freestyle on what about this person, it's so emboldening because
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, wow, this isn't going to be a
Speaker 1: safe movie. This is actually going to be a really
Speaker 1: exciting new take. So nothing really outside of like just
Speaker 1: hearing how much of a fan he is, how devoted
Speaker 1: to it. I mean, throwing creators by the name of
Speaker 1: Chris Claremont out there, I mean, you're warm in my
Speaker 1: heart that yeah. Literally, I literally have from beginning to
Speaker 1: the end of Chris Claremont's run on X Men and
Speaker 1: collect Edition format. X Men are my favorite team in
Speaker 1: Marvel Comics, like, hands down, so many different themes and yes,
Speaker 1: the Claremont Burn run in the beginning and Claremont fully
Speaker 1: taking over a team that went and they took over
Speaker 1: and brought them there. They gave it to them because
Speaker 1: they didn't have any faith in it because it already
Speaker 1: got canceled once. It wasn't as a big title, and
Speaker 1: Burn and Claremont made it who they were with such
Speaker 1: the iconic storylines at that point. I love hearing a
Speaker 1: fan take on these characters and understand and I have
Speaker 1: faith that they understand what they're doing, and like I
Speaker 1: like hearing they're not beholden to anything as much as
Speaker 1: they were on Thunderbolts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I completely agree, knowing that they know the history,
Speaker 3: the connections, the big moments. Again, you're talking about Chris Claremont,
Speaker 3: who was a legend when it comes to X Men.
Speaker 3: Just having that knowledge and being able to understand those
Speaker 3: team dynamics, which is going to be huge for a
Speaker 3: franchise like this, that that gives me a good feeling
Speaker 3: going forward.
Speaker 1: Yeah so so yeah, so we will see. You know,
Speaker 1: there have been some rumors of some possible castings going out.
Speaker 1: There seems to be from what we have heard and
Speaker 1: understood that you know, they're probably gonna go for a
Speaker 1: lot of unknowns, which is fine. You know this this
Speaker 1: could be a launch pad for some up and comers
Speaker 1: that are maybe a little bit in the you know,
Speaker 1: you know, young actors market, or just some young actors
Speaker 1: and actresses that are out there. You know, we and
Speaker 1: I have gone back and forth, Travis, I go back
Speaker 1: for Brendan and I have gone back and forth like
Speaker 1: who could make up this possible team. We're going to
Speaker 1: continue going that. I know you want a certain person
Speaker 1: who is usually wrong about a lot of things at
Speaker 1: that point on this team. You know, he's definitely not
Speaker 1: thrown hands. He thrown eyes and thrown most of the time,
Speaker 1: but pretty much all the time at that point.
Speaker 2: If we're gonna be honest about it.
Speaker 3: Look, the only time a man is wrong is when
Speaker 3: it's talking about being faithful to his woman outside.
Speaker 1: I'm going to point out one thing, and I wasn't
Speaker 1: going to say this. I think I might have said
Speaker 1: it to you. I'm not sure if I did. But
Speaker 1: if you have not read what If Cyclops had What
Speaker 1: If Cyclops have stayed with Madeline Pryor read that issue
Speaker 1: of what If? Read it and you will see because
Speaker 1: of because of his one choice, how bad he.
Speaker 2: Screws up everything. At that point I thought, you know.
Speaker 1: So just just read it and you will. I'll continue
Speaker 1: proving my point of why Cyclops is wrong.
Speaker 2: So anyways, dead be Dad, you know all the things.
Speaker 1: Anyways, poor Scott or no, no, no, no, absolute poor Scott.
Speaker 2: He gets everything that's coming to him. All right.
Speaker 1: So that again, that's all the news for this week.
Speaker 1: So let's head into listener feedback factor. Fiction is the
Speaker 1: Comic Book Club. So we got one question just at
Speaker 1: the naked time about thirty forty ago, mister Josh Green
Speaker 1: had come in and thread so what did he have
Speaker 1: to write us?
Speaker 3: All right? So question from Josh Green, if Marvel made
Speaker 3: a Predator versus Wolverine movie that was outside of the MCU,
Speaker 3: would you rather have Henry Cavill's Wolverine or Hugh Jackman's Wolverine.
Speaker 2: Cavaline? Interesting?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's that's I like that question. You know again,
Speaker 1: if you I will say this too, plug in more comics.
Speaker 1: Definitely highly recommend the when Marvel got you know, brought
Speaker 1: in the Alien and Predator licenses. I think their anthology
Speaker 1: series have been really great. But Predator versus. You had
Speaker 1: Predator versus Wolverine. You have Predator versus Black Panther, spider Man,
Speaker 1: and then Predator versus the Marvel Universe. You had Aliens
Speaker 1: versus the Avengers. You're about to have Aliens versus X
Speaker 1: Men in this one. They're doing some good stuff with
Speaker 1: these characters, these licenses at this point, So highly recommend
Speaker 1: those reads if you get a chance to do that,
Speaker 1: and they don't pull punches with the Predator stuff, like
Speaker 1: even in the Avengers ones, like this is it. They're
Speaker 1: they're taking that license. This is definitely a little bit
Speaker 1: pretty mature. I think spider Man, Wolverine, and Spider Man
Speaker 1: are pretty brutal, very very brutal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, as you would expect Wolverine.
Speaker 1: So so yeah, who would you rather see?
Speaker 2: I'm still thinking, So.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing I need for me if they're going
Speaker 3: to do it outside of the m c U, I
Speaker 3: don't want either of those two. If it's outside of
Speaker 3: the mc Number one huge. Now that Hugh Jackman has
Speaker 3: been brought in with Dead Pull and Wolverine, I think
Speaker 3: you you stick true to the character. I think with
Speaker 3: something like this, you're going to want an over the
Speaker 3: top version of Wolverine. So I'm going to take it
Speaker 3: back to some old fan casting, and I'm gonna say,
Speaker 3: Jock Courtney.
Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, that's definitely the way way back machine.
Speaker 3: Yes, that that that some some older fan casting, you know,
Speaker 3: when they were still trying to decide if they were
Speaker 3: going to recast Wolverine. He was someone who is on
Speaker 3: a lot of people's list, you know, and then he
Speaker 3: went on to be Boomerang in the Suicide Squad. But
Speaker 3: I think that he's got the build, the physicality, plus
Speaker 3: I think he could be just a more over the
Speaker 3: top Wolverine. I don't see Henry Cavill being the more
Speaker 3: over the top Wolverine. And if you're going to bring
Speaker 3: back the Calvaline, I think again, it's one of those
Speaker 3: those special moments and I'd rather have Henry Cavill do
Speaker 3: something else with Marvel for going to get him in
Speaker 3: one true Marvel moment that there's somewhere else I'd rather
Speaker 3: see him. So I'm gonna go with John Courtney for that.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, I'll keep the question there.
Speaker 1: You know, it was it was interesting just because you know,
Speaker 1: you got he had the cameo of the Cavaline, and
Speaker 1: you got Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. I will say, you know,
Speaker 1: I would love to see the cavaln just love to
Speaker 1: see it just there. And and they're getting an action
Speaker 1: figure for which I love. I think that's really cool.
Speaker 2: Man. This is this is a this is tough for me.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: It depends on which version of Hugh Jackson's Wolverine. And
Speaker 1: I would say that the version we got in Deadpool Wolverine, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, just take you know where we got there,
Speaker 1: that was one version. But I think that I want
Speaker 1: to see just the cavalin. I think I think I
Speaker 1: want to see the cavalry, not but it's not a
Speaker 1: huge step ahead of Hugh Jackman because I think that
Speaker 1: that could be good.
Speaker 2: But I just think the the.
Speaker 1: This the the massive of Henry Cavill versus a predator.
Speaker 1: I think that that could be kind of fun. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll say the cavaline. So yeah, but fun question. All right,
Speaker 1: So fact or fictions for this week? All right, so
Speaker 1: we have some reason the ones from a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago. You know, I've got those two. So we
Speaker 1: got a couple of weeks ago with mister Hines, did
Speaker 1: it so they said there will be a second season
Speaker 1: of Spider Noir.
Speaker 2: One hundred percent said yes, what say you?
Speaker 3: I say yes?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: Number two, there will be a live action Miles Morales
Speaker 1: Tony Spider Man in the next five years eighty six
Speaker 1: percent in fact, fourteen percent in fiction.
Speaker 2: What do you say?
Speaker 3: I say yes? Ken Figuez said that they're waiting until
Speaker 3: after the final Spider Verse movie before they introduce theirs.
Speaker 3: So that makes me feel like they definitely have something
Speaker 3: on the horizon.
Speaker 1: If I mentioned that's mister Hines as well, and then
Speaker 1: his final one was Spider Man. Brandon Day will make
Speaker 1: at least a billion dollars sixty seven percent in fact,
Speaker 1: thirty three percents in fiction.
Speaker 2: Do you think now?
Speaker 1: My beginning of the year prediction was that there was
Speaker 1: only going to be one billion dollar movie this year.
Speaker 1: I didn't claim I didn't strike my claim about which one.
Speaker 1: I just said one of the Marvel movies would be
Speaker 1: not both. So do you think it will it be
Speaker 1: Spider Man?
Speaker 3: Close but not it?
Speaker 2: Okay, close but not it?
Speaker 3: All right? I agree with you that that there's going
Speaker 3: to be a billion dollar movie. I just don't think
Speaker 3: that this is it.
Speaker 1: I don't think this is gonna be it, all right,
Speaker 1: So let me pull up the ones from our three
Speaker 1: hundredth episode we put out there. All right, So for
Speaker 1: some reason there was no vote. The voting got screwed
Speaker 1: up on number one. But since you didn't weren't there
Speaker 1: for it, you get to kind of put it out there.
Speaker 1: The agric or co Oh will be a major story
Speaker 1: arc in a future season of X Men ninety seven.
Speaker 3: Fact, And I said that as a huge, huge, huge
Speaker 3: fan of Crico era X Men.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, number two, we had one hundred percent
Speaker 1: say this. There will be a Defenders related special presentation
Speaker 1: not titled Jessica Jones or Alias.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go fact on that, and I think I
Speaker 3: voted fact on on the poll.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: This next Spider Man Tom Holland trilogy will feature Gwen
Speaker 1: Stacy and Harry Osborne at supporting characters.
Speaker 3: I'm going to go fiction on that. I don't think
Speaker 3: we'll get.
Speaker 2: Harry, okay, And then I think this was yours.
Speaker 1: In season two of X ninety seven, one of the
Speaker 1: X teams will lose and die against the Against Apocalypse.
Speaker 3: So that that's mine and I'm going fact. I think
Speaker 3: that the they have to have the big moment, a
Speaker 3: La Gambit sacrifice, you know, all over again?
Speaker 2: Gotcha?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 1: Well I will you know those are the those are
Speaker 1: the ones from the last two weeks.
Speaker 2: So David, what do you have for us this week?
Speaker 3: Okay? So first one, we kind of touched on it earlier.
Speaker 3: Banner's Risk Gauntlet will be the blueprint for the Mutant Callers, blueprint.
Speaker 2: For the Mutant College.
Speaker 1: I will I put it out there as an idea,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna say fact, I think they're gonna I
Speaker 1: think they're gonna co opt it like governments do.
Speaker 3: Yep, uh same same here. I think that that's an
Speaker 3: easy way to get that technology in our hearts and
Speaker 3: mind so that it can loop around later. All right.
Speaker 3: Number two, we will get hints of net Leeds hob
Speaker 3: Goblin persona in brand new day. Uh.
Speaker 2: Y'all just trying to try to make this a thing,
Speaker 2: aren't you.
Speaker 3: I have a thought process on how it's gonna happen.
Speaker 2: Explain your fault process.
Speaker 3: And my thought process is, you know, this this emotional
Speaker 3: connection that's jumping between the people. I think at some
Speaker 3: point it will get a hold of ned and we
Speaker 3: will see some different tendencies out of him while he's
Speaker 3: co opted by this presence, and that that will be
Speaker 3: how they get the the other aspect of it.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I just I don't see this Ned is
Speaker 1: ever turning into a Hobgoblin.
Speaker 2: I just don't here much for the actor. I just
Speaker 2: think that this is uh not our Hobgoblin. And to be.
Speaker 1: Honest, Ned leads, yeah, that was was a version of
Speaker 1: the Hobgoblin.
Speaker 2: Doesn't say he has to be the Hobgoblin.
Speaker 3: So he did promise the last movie that he'd never
Speaker 3: betray Peters.
Speaker 4: So just to say it happens, yeah, all right, and
Speaker 4: the final one, a member of the X Men roster
Speaker 4: will come out in full costume at hall.
Speaker 3: Huh.
Speaker 2: I will say false.
Speaker 1: I do not think we are going to get official
Speaker 1: cast official from Marvel. Marvel, That's what I'm saying. The
Speaker 1: trades can say whatever they want. I will say false.
Speaker 1: I do not think we are going to get anything
Speaker 1: official casting news about the MCS version of the X
Speaker 1: Men until at the earliest next year. At the earliest,
Speaker 1: we are not getting anything official from Marvel about the
Speaker 1: MC's casting will be leaks and that we're gonna be
Speaker 1: in fantastic four First Steps territory.
Speaker 3: I'm hoping that they at least plan to see, you know,
Speaker 3: give us how they did with the Supreme Intelligence and
Speaker 3: you know just what the walk through moment and things
Speaker 3: like that. So what we'll see I wanted to happen.
Speaker 3: I don't know if it will. I'm leaning towards fact,
Speaker 3: but we'll see.
Speaker 2: We'll see.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I will post those and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: let your voice be heard with that. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: take our final ad break for the evening listeners. Let
Speaker 1: these ads help keep the lights on the geek cultimate
Speaker 1: lines network. We don't get to choose what ads come on.
Speaker 1: They could be a bit loud to give it a
Speaker 1: three coup before they come on. Three two one.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back and we are back, all right.
Speaker 1: So we are going to conclude the Age of Ultron
Speaker 1: storyline with Age of Ultron ten up a I as
Speaker 1: it were, so.
Speaker 2: Ah David ten point.
Speaker 1: Ai a KA, let's do a whole comic book about
Speaker 1: Hank Pim, whole origin story about mister Hank Pim thoughts.
Speaker 2: On filtered thoughts.
Speaker 3: This was the redemption arc for the unredeemable.
Speaker 2: No, there is no redemption for Hank Pim.
Speaker 3: He's a that's what That's what I'm saying. They they
Speaker 3: they tried to person make him feel like more of
Speaker 3: a person. They tried to give him a redemption. Arc.
Speaker 3: There is no redemption for Hank Pim. He is a horrible,
Speaker 3: horrible human being in multiple aspects.
Speaker 1: I did find it interesting that, you know, when they
Speaker 1: spend the time looking at like how much of a
Speaker 1: level genius, he is basically painting his parent his particularly
Speaker 1: his father, as not understanding and suppressing his gifts and talents,
Speaker 1: while his his grandmother is the only one that kind
Speaker 1: of encourages him and does things like that.
Speaker 2: But she passes away.
Speaker 1: He kind of like his creative side kind of kind
Speaker 1: of just kind of disappears, and he just falls into
Speaker 1: the you know what can be practical and you know,
Speaker 1: leads to him eventually developing the pin particles. No, I
Speaker 1: you know, it's interesting in that sense, but you know,
Speaker 1: where he I think it's rather interesting when he kind
Speaker 1: of takes on the idea of the hero and how
Speaker 1: he just like, I'm.
Speaker 2: A big guy. I'm a little guy. I'm a big guy.
Speaker 2: I'm a little guy, you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just he's like, yeah, you know, I was ant man,
Speaker 3: I was small, and then I start thinking maybe I'm
Speaker 3: too small. So then it became THET and I became
Speaker 3: yo Jackie, Like there's all the like, choose a lane,
Speaker 3: my guy, choose a lane.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, just it faces an origin issue, kind
Speaker 1: of re establishing after what happened in Age of ultrying
Speaker 1: to like his character at this point, and it is
Speaker 1: a basically a backdoor pilot to what became a spinoff
Speaker 1: series of this Avengers AI.
Speaker 2: No, we are not going to be reading that spoiler alert.
Speaker 1: It's not really that good. If this issue was anything
Speaker 1: to prove that not much by Hank Pim is to
Speaker 1: be led by anything.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So but all right, so let's kind of give our
Speaker 1: like overall thoughts of Age of Aul Trump.
Speaker 2: You know, a reread of this for both of us
Speaker 2: upon a reread, what did you think?
Speaker 3: Upon a reread? I started thinking that there were It
Speaker 3: definitely had some good moments, but it also had some
Speaker 3: some slow and confusing moments, and it kind of felt
Speaker 3: like the turn and the ending of it still to
Speaker 3: this day seems a little bit rush, like they had
Speaker 3: this grandiose ideal, and then they were told you only
Speaker 3: get ten issues, you got to cut some stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I felt, especially in the beginning, I'm cool spending
Speaker 1: time in the dystopian future, but it it dragged. And
Speaker 1: when we got to the alternative future, yeah, that's when
Speaker 1: it kind of picked up a bit.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's it's a meh.
Speaker 1: Overall in my opinion. I'd say a mediocre five in
Speaker 1: my opinion for an event series at that point. You know,
Speaker 1: I know this had like ramifications that would lead down
Speaker 1: to other things, but I'd say, all in all, just
Speaker 1: as an ice, just as an event series, it's a five.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't what I.
Speaker 1: Would recommend for people to read it, you know, as
Speaker 1: a first time event, I would put other things in
Speaker 1: their hand.
Speaker 3: I definitely agree this is not a go out of
Speaker 3: your way to search and find you need to read
Speaker 3: this story this series.
Speaker 2: So but all right, so that concludes.
Speaker 1: You know, again, as we said, the movie Age of
Speaker 1: Altron just takes the title of the Age of Ultron,
Speaker 1: nothing else about it. So I I, you know, after
Speaker 1: reading it, I understand why. I knew exactly why they
Speaker 1: didn't want to do that. So David what is our
Speaker 1: next compook club as we go through our journey of
Speaker 1: uh as the MCS based things off projects, what are
Speaker 1: we going to do?
Speaker 3: All right? So, based off of some things that we've
Speaker 3: seen in the Brand New Day trailer, I have decided
Speaker 3: that we are going to go with Spider Man the
Speaker 3: other This was a run from five to six. It's
Speaker 3: a big crossover event with the various Spider Man books
Speaker 3: written by Michael Straczynski. It's very, very good. It involves
Speaker 3: Peter facing this mysterious illness and you know, just things
Speaker 3: are not going right with his body, certain things are
Speaker 3: failing him. He's also battling the villain Morland during all
Speaker 3: of this, who is just you know, taking him to task.
Speaker 3: And we see a transformation comic wise with Peter that
Speaker 3: you know coming out of it. Certain aspects of it
Speaker 3: started to match what was going on cinematically with Spider Man,
Speaker 3: and we get some some other aspects to it, the
Speaker 3: Spider totems and you know, the rebirth of Peter from there.
Speaker 3: So this was a pivotal storyline back in you know,
Speaker 3: five six. So, given some of the stuff we've seen
Speaker 3: in Brand New Day, I thought it'd be fun to
Speaker 3: go back to this twelve issues storyline.
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially with some of the imagery, Like you said,
Speaker 1: we've seen in particular where Peter emerges from what we're
Speaker 1: gonna call a cocoon, and when we get get that apart,
Speaker 1: there is a certain cover that is going to show
Speaker 1: that idea. But yes, this basically event the other Also,
Speaker 1: the tagline for Evolver Die was broken down into four
Speaker 1: acts the series writers. It encompassed the titles across Friendly
Speaker 1: Neighborhood Spider Man, which began during this run, so issues
Speaker 1: one through four, and that was written by Peter David
Speaker 1: with art done by Michael Ringo. Then you had it
Speaker 1: crossing over into Marvel Knight Spider Man nineteen through twenty two,
Speaker 1: who at that point the artist was Matt pat Lee
Speaker 1: and writer was Reggie Hudland. And then you obviously have
Speaker 1: the mainline title of The Amazing Spider In five twenty
Speaker 1: five to five twenty eight, which, as you said.
Speaker 2: Written by J.
Speaker 1: Michael Schrazinski and artist on that was Mike Deodado Junior.
Speaker 1: So I'm kind of I'm definitely excited about this. I know,
Speaker 1: you know, as we say, this is a particular storyline
Speaker 1: that does have some.
Speaker 2: A lot more. I think there's a lot more people
Speaker 2: who are not fans of this storyline.
Speaker 1: I actually liked where it was, and I especially like
Speaker 1: kind of how they were doing it where the acts,
Speaker 1: as this was four acts. The first act had the
Speaker 1: red tinted covers, the second has blue tinted covers, the
Speaker 1: third act had gray and black covers, and the final
Speaker 1: act had orange and yellow covers. So they really leaned
Speaker 1: into this. I actually am going to be very curious
Speaker 1: to see if I feel come out of this as
Speaker 1: feeling as high as I did after it, because at
Speaker 1: this time I was still in the beginnings of my
Speaker 1: re entry into.
Speaker 2: Collecting comics weekly, so this was kind.
Speaker 1: Of very exciting for me and seeing kind of a
Speaker 1: changeover for Peter just that this was I mean, this
Speaker 1: was an era era of huge shifts in Peter's tyme
Speaker 1: the Spider Man. So I am excited to revisit this.
Speaker 3: Yes, me too, It's been a while since I have
Speaker 3: fully read this. I do remember. This was like, you know,
Speaker 3: right after a high school early college for me. I
Speaker 3: was working at Buffalo Wawings, taking my checks and runningto
Speaker 3: the comic book stores between shifts, and I'd go back
Speaker 3: and I'd sit in a booth and read it until
Speaker 3: the dinner rush started. And you know this, so this
Speaker 3: will be my first time sitting down and reading all
Speaker 3: twelve issues straight through since.
Speaker 1: So so next week we will begin our journey into
Speaker 1: Spider Man the Other in part one, which is going
Speaker 1: to be in Friendly Neighborhood Spider Man at number one.
Speaker 1: As always, if you are a Marvel Unlimited subscriber, you
Speaker 1: can just simply look up the other storyline and it'll

Speaker 1: would say, excelsior, true believers.
Speaker 2: All right, David.
Speaker 1: Post credits discussion. We said that Colum book related in
Speaker 1: more ways. You know, I'll end with the Heroes con hall,
Speaker 1: but talk to us about what we're going to be
Speaker 1: talking about before that.
Speaker 3: All right, So legend Dary X Men contributor John Byrne
Speaker 3: is returning to the X Men in assorts for one
Speaker 3: last ride. I use returning in air quotes here because
Speaker 3: he is returning to share some X Men stories and
Speaker 3: this is going to be entitled x Men else When,
Speaker 3: And it's not an actual Marvel property, but it is
Speaker 3: just kind of a love letter of sorts that he
Speaker 3: is putting out on June twenty third from Abram's comics,
Speaker 3: and it it's something it's something that he says, it's
Speaker 3: something that I'm doing that was not intended for publications
Speaker 3: and is the definition of fan fiction. The semi retired
Speaker 3: writer Artists tells a Harvard reporter. Some people use the
Speaker 3: term as pejorative, and I don't think that it is.
Speaker 3: It's just it's his way of just getting out those
Speaker 3: final stories. For those who may recognize the name, he
Speaker 3: is famous for his contributions to the Dark Phoenix saga,
Speaker 3: same thing with x Men, Days of Features passed and
Speaker 3: wrote for Marvel for many years until after being fed
Speaker 3: up with creative differences, decided to take a break from
Speaker 3: Marvel titles and step away. And he's done some writing
Speaker 3: over the years, but after that he has not published
Speaker 3: anything within the last ten years. And this is again
Speaker 3: just kind of a love letter back out there before
Speaker 3: he goes ahead and official retires.
Speaker 1: Yeah, John Byrne, he has not been also on the
Speaker 1: comic book comic con circuit for a long time. Very
Speaker 1: Crimogeny in the interview also les he does not let
Speaker 1: anything flies, he said he he. It also goes into
Speaker 1: the article and he talks about how his differences, especially
Speaker 1: around the time of the death of Jean during the
Speaker 1: Dark Phoenix saga, he was not a fan of that,
Speaker 1: you know, especially editor in chief when Jimmy Shooter ordered
Speaker 1: Jane killed.
Speaker 2: That rubbed him the wrong way.
Speaker 1: That led to his eventually leaving the title, turning it
Speaker 1: all over to Chris Clarmont to head up. But yeah,
Speaker 1: this was a kind of kind of a fan project
Speaker 1: that he just started doing one day as he talked
Speaker 1: about like he created a panel of Wolverine versus Sharon
Speaker 1: and just kind of stepped on putting out panels by panels, pages, pages,
Speaker 1: and they kind of became kind of this underground kind
Speaker 1: of oh my gosh, this is John Byrne if he
Speaker 1: didn't leave the title, and it went on for I
Speaker 1: think they said about thirty six issues.
Speaker 2: Online. And so when people are like is ever gonna
Speaker 2: be collected? Ever be collected? There like one, I don't
Speaker 2: know if Marvel's even gonna allow me to do them.
Speaker 1: Surprises haven't sued me, you know, but they were able
Speaker 1: under CB Sibolski as editor in chief, were able to
Speaker 1: get together and he wanted this to happen. So, in
Speaker 1: a conjunction with Abram Books, the first volume of three
Speaker 1: X Men Else When is going to be coming out?
Speaker 1: I believe next week is the first volume. It has
Speaker 1: already gone out of print at the distributor level, so
Speaker 1: that they are going back to print with a second
Speaker 1: with another edition of it. Since to satisfy stuff. So
Speaker 1: if you're not able to get this first run, it
Speaker 1: will be coming back. The second volume will be coming
Speaker 1: out next summer, and the third volume of the following
Speaker 1: summer after that to encompass this, as they say else
Speaker 1: when run and you know, I like how how in
Speaker 1: the article, I mean, this is again twenty five thousand,
Speaker 1: I've already sold out, like and so they're going back
Speaker 1: to print with twenty twenty thousand more. So, you know,
Speaker 1: it is exciting at that point. But I like how
Speaker 1: he talks about how he, like he said, Burne is
Speaker 1: both boastful and modest, even as he struggles to come
Speaker 1: up with concrete answers. He calls them damn good comics.
Speaker 1: He says, there's something magical about those characters, especially.
Speaker 2: When I'm in charge.
Speaker 1: You know, Marvel was putting a lot of crap out.
Speaker 1: At the same time, he talks about how he, you know,
Speaker 1: with the movies coming out at that point, that he's
Speaker 1: not a fan of the movies at all. However, unlike
Speaker 1: unlike uh, you know, Miller, he excuse me, unlike Alan
Speaker 1: Moore he is I'm interestingly not frankly. But unlike Alan Moore,
Speaker 1: he is going to take a paycheck, you know, when
Speaker 1: they use his character.
Speaker 2: He's not above that.
Speaker 1: However, I thought one of the more interesting thing is
Speaker 1: that I've often said I wish I hadn't done Superman
Speaker 1: because DC lied to me at every turn. The whole project,
Speaker 1: which should have been a dream come true, just became
Speaker 1: an endless stream disappointments and frustration.
Speaker 2: I ultimately quit.
Speaker 1: John Byurne is one of these ones that infamously quits
Speaker 1: things before this they finished, or just when he gets
Speaker 1: totally fed up when he doesn't have creative control, which again,
Speaker 1: a lot of creators do have that problem, do have that,
Speaker 1: and I get that, but I do like this idea,
Speaker 1: and I'm very excited. I've I've read a number of
Speaker 1: these issues. I never got to read the whole run
Speaker 1: of this, so this is you know, it's not going
Speaker 1: to be a totally first read, but just to have
Speaker 1: this idea of something that should be coming out into
Speaker 1: print Marvel really shouldn't be doing they're they're actually allowing
Speaker 1: this to happen is great. And yes, this is why
Speaker 1: physical media does matter, because I don't know if they're
Speaker 1: ever going to put this out digitally at that point,
Speaker 1: So if you want this again, they're the more they sell,
Speaker 1: they're going to keep on putting up. But like I said,
Speaker 1: the first run of this, twenty five thousand copies are
Speaker 1: already out a print, twenty thousand are going back into there.
Speaker 1: But again, Volume two comes out next summer. Volume three
Speaker 1: comes out in twenty twenty eight. So I'm excited for this.
Speaker 1: I think this is a great idea, great things, great
Speaker 1: capsule of what if, literally what if or else when?
Speaker 2: As this what if?
Speaker 1: John Byrne got to continue writing the X ment as
Speaker 1: he saw fit as he gets to say goodbye to
Speaker 1: leaving comics with this last idea.
Speaker 2: So cool idea.
Speaker 1: But yes, I promised some some images of what happened
Speaker 1: in Heroes con so went to Hero's Khan and got
Speaker 1: some some sketches.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna single myself out so I can do this.
Speaker 1: So I've got a spider Man remarked by my favorite
Speaker 1: artist of all time for spider Man, Mark Bagley.
Speaker 2: So that was pretty cool. And as he was signing
Speaker 2: my omnies, one of the omnies was his.
Speaker 1: With Mkalainey. He had two volumes of that with Nikolainey,
Speaker 1: and he saw the cover the the hardcover, not the
Speaker 1: dust Jack, but the hardcover of Peter holding his dead
Speaker 1: parents and screaming. He says, God, I freaking hate that cover.
Speaker 1: I don't know why they do it. I hate that cover.
Speaker 1: I hate it that they chose it. So he noticed
Speaker 1: his discussed with that. Then I got it. Had Dennis Colwyn,
Speaker 1: you know, do a sketch of I love his run
Speaker 1: on the question, So of course I'm going to ask
Speaker 1: him to do a sketch and remark on the question.
Speaker 2: So this is his love. It gonna be framing all these.
Speaker 1: Then, as always, Daniel Warren Johnson, who is you know,
Speaker 1: one of my favorite artists of all time?
Speaker 2: Now did a sketch. It did a quick little remark
Speaker 2: in the Transformers book two there with do a little
Speaker 2: little Transformer's action.
Speaker 1: And what I can say about Daniel Warren Jackson, I
Speaker 1: will always say it all. I'm always amazing, like he
Speaker 1: remembers who I am, even though I only see him
Speaker 1: once a year. He asked me things that I wouldn't
Speaker 1: think anyone will remember about. So if you ever listened
Speaker 1: to this Daniel Warren Johnson, I love this man. He
Speaker 1: is awesome. He is a a fans ge if he
Speaker 1: loves the fans. He is a great artist. Read anything
Speaker 1: by him, and also a big deal for him. An
Speaker 1: artist edition of his Beta ray Bill mini series is
Speaker 1: coming out next year in that huge format at that point,
Speaker 1: so check that out.
Speaker 2: When it does come out. Speaking of Beta ray Bill, meeting.
Speaker 1: Walter Simonson, him signing, that's Daniel Warren Johnson there, but
Speaker 1: Walter Simonson, the creator of Beta ray Bill, even though
Speaker 1: this is not his as he pointed out to me.
Speaker 2: He says, this isn't my version of the character, but he.
Speaker 1: Knew who exactly it was. But I reminded him and said, sir,
Speaker 1: you you created the characters. So this means so much
Speaker 1: to meet it in that famous Simonson signature. But I
Speaker 1: got the opportunity and he did me a solid I
Speaker 1: pontificated so much of how much I love Beta Rebell.
Speaker 1: He did me a solid a remark for Beta ray Bill,
Speaker 1: and this is going to be a treasure. Love that character,
Speaker 1: love everything about it. And but yeah, that's some of
Speaker 1: the step from Heroes concept. Very successful. Got to also
Speaker 1: meet Scott Snyder and a number of other great creators,
Speaker 1: but a lot of times. Got to hang out with
Speaker 1: my friend bj kicks as well, So all in all
Speaker 1: a great time at Heroes Con. But yeah, so we'll
Speaker 1: see what news brings us next week. David and I
Speaker 1: are kind of thinking that may be a little quiet.
Speaker 1: With a Supergirl coming out next week, they may go
Speaker 1: quiet next week in preparation four as David is wearing
Speaker 1: X Men ninety seven. Season two comes out in July first,
Speaker 1: so we will be there at the very leost breaking down,
Speaker 1: So we'll see if we see.

Speaker 1: If not, we will see you impossibly in two weeks
Speaker 1: to start our journey into that. So catch out later
Speaker 1: and have a good weekend and we'll see you real soon.
