Marveling At Marvel's Marvels

Happy holidays, Marvelers! We certainly hope you haven't been naughty- otherwise, you might get a visit from a certain someone this year... Better check out this episode to be on the safe side!  As the world goes to shit, we hope you and those you care about are safe and sound this holiday season. Thank you for letting us into your ears and hearts. 

Hey, Marvelers! Listen to this special announcement for your chance to be a part of our 10th anniversary spectacular!  Here's a link to our Discord server:  https://discord.gg/8vbcx4YXQP

It's the time of year where we reflect on what things for which we're thankful. With that in mind, we break formula to discuss a delightful non-Marvel comic movie: 2025's Superman.  Spoilers abound, so if you haven't seen the movie yet, maybe check it out before listening.

Welcome back, Marvelers, as we continue our cosmic sojourn! This week, we present Gladiator (the mohawk one, not the buzzsaw one). Is he a true hero of the Shi'ar Empire or just another space fascist? You decide!

The Accuser hath arrived, and he demands you listen to this episode! More cosmic chaos ensues as we present Ronan, Supreme Accuser of the Kree Empire! 

Happy Halloween, Marvelers! In honor of the season, we discuss the new Disney+ animated series, Marvel Zombies!  Spoilers abound, so if you plan to watch the show maybe do so before listening. 

We continue our cosmic explorations with the bearer of the Quantum Bands, Quasar! We'll go from the character's 1950s origin to his growth into a true cosmic power. You don't want to miss this one!

Our listeners have been asking for this on for years: It's Marvel's space cop, Nova! We'll talk through his origins, obligatory crappy 90s comics, and reemergence in the 2000s. 

By special request from our very special guest, we bring you Groo the Wanderer! Believe me when I tell you you're in for a treat with this one- don't miss it! 

Thanks to our listeners for supporting us over the last 9 years. As a thank you, we bring you one of your most requested characters- you might be surprised who it is!

The first family of Marvel finally joins the MCU. You know you've all been dying to hear what Josef has to say about this one. Join us for a, detailed and, quite frankly, surprising discussion on Fantastic Four: First Steps!  *SPOILER ALERT* Should go without saying, but we go well into  spoiler territory on this one. We definitely recommend saving this episode until you've seen the film.

Inspired by last episode's discussion around Peepers, we dig deep into 1977's Captain America Annual #4, written and drawn by Jack Kirby. In the course of this discussion, we'll tell you all about Magneto's supporting team of weirdos who one day go on to become Mutant Force! And did we mention Mister One? He's the bizarre little fella pictured on the episode thumbnail. We talk about him, too. You'll love it. Josef insisted we call the episode "Mutant Force" instead of "1977's Captain America Annual #4, written and drawn by Jack Kirby". You be the judge of whether that was the right call...

It's everyone's favorite episode: Weirdo Shotgun! Navigate a barrage of 17 bizarre characters alongside Josef and see if you can determine which are actually Marvel characters and which are listener creations!

Ladies and gentlemen, the following episode is scheduled for one fall! Now making his way to the podcast is Enjoy Wrestling star and 880 Wrestling champion, Gianni Michael Emricko! In honor of our illustrious guest we present one of Marvel's greatest wrestling legends, The Armadillo! We go deep into the history of this weird giant armadillo man and wrestling in the Marvel universe- don't miss it! 

It's Marveling at the movies! Join your favorite podcasters as they share opinions on Marvel's latest film, The Thunderbolts!  Spoilers abound, so maybe hold off on this one until you've seen the movie... 

Following up on our most contentious episode (a scant 5 years ago- timely!) we bring you the Age of Apocalypse! Join Jon & Josef as they lament the horrors of 90s comics, crossover events, and villains with ill-defined powers. Fun!

In advance of her Disney+ TV show, you surely want to know more about the heir to Iron man's mantle. We've got everything you need to know about Riri Williams, aka Ironheart!

We've got the inside scoop on Marvel's most prominent journalist: J. Jonah Jameson! You might think it an odd character to cover, but by the end I'm sure you'll understand why he deserves the full Marveling treatment! 

It's a messy episode this week, as Jon sleepily tells Josef about two of Marvel's latest animated shows: What If and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. Please bear with us; we're hoping Jon gets more sleep before our next episode...

By popular demand, we're bringing you a full episode dedicated to everyone's favorite fish: Jeff the Baby Landshark! We'll take a look at his origins, his solo comic, and his cultural impact, This is a can't miss episode for fans of all things cute and fun!
