00:19.940 --> 00:24.341
[SPEAKER_00]: And we just got back from New York and New York Comic Con a few days ago.

00:24.381 --> 00:28.342
[SPEAKER_00]: And so we wanted to take a second to tell you guys about our experience there.

00:28.842 --> 00:29.582
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a great time.

00:30.042 --> 00:31.462
[SPEAKER_00]: Robbie, welcome to Friends From Work.

00:31.842 --> 00:32.282
[SPEAKER_00]: How are you?

00:32.322 --> 00:34.163
[SPEAKER_00]: And let's take our listeners through our week last week.

00:36.187 --> 00:37.027
[SPEAKER_01]: I am great.

00:37.067 --> 00:48.274
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm coming to terms with being back in Austin where everything is about 15 degrees hotter than a plus last week and just back to work you're in a better stuff on that front.

00:48.374 --> 00:55.798
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm in Michigan right now at my parents house and it's perfect today 70 and sunny so yeah, this is what prime Michigan time.

00:57.279 --> 01:03.483
[SPEAKER_00]: It's worth worth towards the very back end of it, you know, it's going to start getting chilly pretty soon here, but yeah for sure.

01:04.202 --> 01:05.182
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

01:05.382 --> 01:09.544
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I am, I'm, I'm, I'm reping everything.

01:09.664 --> 01:10.965
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got, I'm repin' New York.

01:11.205 --> 01:12.585
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm repin' friends from work.

01:13.105 --> 01:14.326
[SPEAKER_01]: By the way, by the way.

01:14.346 --> 01:15.226
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm repin' Nike.

01:15.606 --> 01:15.966
[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.

01:16.006 --> 01:19.388
[SPEAKER_01]: Nike got.

01:19.468 --> 01:21.348
[SPEAKER_01]: Kelsey, shout out.

01:21.609 --> 01:24.029
[SPEAKER_01]: One of our, one of our friends.

01:26.070 --> 01:33.313
[SPEAKER_01]: Listeners, like fellow friend from work came and joined us at the convention for a moment, had the shirt on.

01:34.444 --> 01:34.984
[SPEAKER_00]: which was really cool.

01:35.004 --> 01:35.524
[SPEAKER_01]: It was really cool.

01:35.984 --> 01:38.005
[SPEAKER_00]: Really cool and fun to chat with her for a while.

01:38.405 --> 01:41.585
[SPEAKER_00]: And I know that we actually missed a few other people that were out there.

01:41.625 --> 01:45.066
[SPEAKER_00]: So if we missed you, we're sorry, it's actually chaotic.

01:45.126 --> 01:49.567
[SPEAKER_00]: For people who have never been to a Comic Con, imagine what?

01:49.867 --> 02:00.129
[SPEAKER_00]: I would say 100,000 people, I don't know, 80,000 people walking in the same kind of convention center at once, just like it looks like a sea of ants when you're looking from above.

02:00.229 --> 02:00.989
[SPEAKER_00]: It's crazy.

02:01.470 --> 02:03.470
[SPEAKER_00]: So if we didn't see you, we apologize.

02:04.311 --> 02:15.079
[SPEAKER_01]: It's wild because historically, at least the last couple of times, that I've gone to New York, it always feels like Thursday.

02:16.579 --> 02:32.508
[SPEAKER_01]: is pretty calm because a lot of people I think will get in for the weekend and get in on Friday morning and do Friday and Saturday because that's when the biggest panels are typically and I was not even there on Saturday this year.

02:32.588 --> 02:38.272
[SPEAKER_01]: You and I both had to fly out before Saturday, but even Thursday it was

02:39.972 --> 02:49.841
[SPEAKER_01]: pretty slammed and then by the time we got to Friday I was kind of glad that I wasn't going to be there for Saturday because I could like barely move when I was walking from place to place.

02:52.226 --> 02:56.027
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, they were definitely sore dogs the dogs are barking my feet.

02:56.087 --> 02:56.508
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, man.

02:56.528 --> 03:01.649
[SPEAKER_01]: I know sure This was a unique week for us though.

03:01.689 --> 03:15.393
[SPEAKER_01]: This was Any addition to Like getting that it was the 20th anniversary of New York Comic-Con which was fun But we went up a couple of days ahead of time

03:16.740 --> 03:24.242
[SPEAKER_01]: uh and had a really great time getting to uh be a part of the the vision quest.

03:25.022 --> 03:31.924
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, fresh junk it has many of you are all seeing right now because we're posting the clips from our conversation with Emily.

03:32.205 --> 03:32.825
[SPEAKER_00]: Emily, Hampshire.

03:33.225 --> 03:33.345
[SPEAKER_00]: So

03:34.065 --> 03:36.047
[SPEAKER_00]: We flew out on Tuesday.

03:36.127 --> 03:38.770
[SPEAKER_00]: I flew from Nashville, Uflue from Austin.

03:39.170 --> 03:44.355
[SPEAKER_00]: And the first thing we did, as you mentioned, before Comic Con was be a part of that vision-quest presser.

03:44.956 --> 03:54.225
[SPEAKER_00]: And we got a chance to say hi to our friends at Disney and then talk with Emily Hamshire, which was a whirlwind of an experience.

03:55.928 --> 03:58.491
[SPEAKER_00]: just because it all kind of happened so fast.

03:58.511 --> 04:01.295
[SPEAKER_00]: Like your flight was a little bit late and then it took a little bit getting in.

04:01.335 --> 04:09.825
[SPEAKER_00]: And so from a time that you were changing in the lobby because your room wasn't ready, we were talking to Emily maybe like 20 minutes after that.

04:09.845 --> 04:12.908
[SPEAKER_00]: So we had to go upstairs, check in, and then all of a sudden we're going.

04:13.709 --> 04:16.171
[SPEAKER_00]: and she was so fun, so gracious.

04:16.231 --> 04:19.174
[SPEAKER_00]: It's been fun to see these clips resonating with people.

04:21.015 --> 04:26.400
[SPEAKER_00]: And kind of in there too, I had watched four episodes of Vision Quest.

04:26.540 --> 04:27.781
[SPEAKER_00]: You hadn't seen any yet.

04:28.461 --> 04:30.203
[SPEAKER_00]: Vision Quest is airing tonight.

04:30.863 --> 04:32.964
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's kind of fun for all the synergy here.

04:33.104 --> 04:43.648
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I've seen the whole show now and I loved it and I'm excited for people to see it and then kind of combine that with getting a chance to talk to Emily, see our friends at Disney and now the episodes coming out tonight.

04:43.668 --> 04:44.028
[SPEAKER_00]: Just got it.

04:44.048 --> 04:44.649
[SPEAKER_00]: It's got a good vibe.

04:44.829 --> 04:45.189
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all.

04:45.849 --> 04:46.089
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

04:46.489 --> 04:47.390
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

04:48.050 --> 04:50.091
[SPEAKER_01]: Episode wasn't supposed to come out tonight.

04:51.051 --> 04:52.092
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, super strange.

04:54.413 --> 04:55.013
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know.

04:56.743 --> 04:58.944
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll we'll get there.

04:59.925 --> 05:05.728
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, they at the vision at the Marvel TV panel that we'll talk about in a second.

05:05.748 --> 05:13.433
[SPEAKER_01]: They showed the pilot for vision quest to the whole audience, which there was a moment when they showed a trailer.

05:14.354 --> 05:17.456
[SPEAKER_01]: And I heard people chanting like first episode.

05:18.296 --> 05:19.557
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, that would be crazy.

05:20.527 --> 05:21.187
[SPEAKER_01]: But then they did.

05:21.547 --> 05:26.650
[SPEAKER_01]: So it seems like maybe they're trying to, you know, like they soft launched it a bit.

05:26.710 --> 05:28.850
[SPEAKER_01]: And I guess at this point, so many people have seen it.

05:28.910 --> 05:34.893
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm sure have been online talking about it, that it kind of makes sense.

05:34.933 --> 05:37.834
[SPEAKER_01]: Or maybe this was all part of some green strategy.

05:38.234 --> 05:39.515
[SPEAKER_01]: But it is kind of wild.

05:41.587 --> 05:41.887
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

05:41.947 --> 05:43.489
[SPEAKER_00]: So that was fun.

05:43.529 --> 05:44.289
[SPEAKER_00]: That went well.

05:44.770 --> 05:45.890
[SPEAKER_00]: Emily was great.

05:46.431 --> 05:47.672
[SPEAKER_00]: Had a great time chatting with her.

05:47.872 --> 05:54.357
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we got invited to go check out Whalefall, which is a movie that's coming out.

05:55.198 --> 05:56.359
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, this week.

05:57.514 --> 06:00.636
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, why do you keep saying that, by the way, you sound like I'm the review dude.

06:00.716 --> 06:10.364
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh god, I didn't know if like I'm missing some inside joke, because we posted a spoiler for your review of it, and you also went, well, fall, and I'm like, okay.

06:10.684 --> 06:14.347
[SPEAKER_00]: I, but we did that actually at Disney Studios.

06:14.387 --> 06:20.232
[SPEAKER_00]: They have a studio in New York, and we got chance to go check out the building, and they have a theater inside the building.

06:20.252 --> 06:21.793
[SPEAKER_00]: It was actually a pretty cool theater, I thought.

06:22.175 --> 06:23.616
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was cool.

06:23.776 --> 06:26.718
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was like just a handful of folks.

06:27.758 --> 06:28.659
[SPEAKER_01]: So that was really fun.

06:28.839 --> 06:30.700
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, again, we've joked about it on the show.

06:32.661 --> 06:35.063
[SPEAKER_01]: I have been pretty excited about that movie.

06:35.383 --> 06:46.629
[SPEAKER_01]: And I am also realizing, like we're out of spot now with how old Betty is where we kind of have to pick and choose the movies that we're

06:50.187 --> 06:56.577
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm really glad that I got a chance to see that in theaters, because it's a good movie for that.

06:57.572 --> 07:05.519
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and by the way, if you care at all about that, we did post a reaction on social media and on YouTube that you're gonna wanna watch.

07:05.579 --> 07:06.740
[SPEAKER_00]: We thought it was pretty good.

07:07.100 --> 07:12.825
[SPEAKER_00]: And then actually, my, we thought it was good, which was already kind of surprising.

07:12.985 --> 07:22.193
[SPEAKER_00]: And then my reaction only kind of grew, because I got a chance to attend the Whalefall panel with Austin Abrams and Josh Bro and At Comic Con, which we'll get to in a second.

07:23.013 --> 07:27.799
[SPEAKER_00]: and it increases your enjoyment of the film once you get to hear from the creators of it.

07:28.520 --> 07:36.168
[SPEAKER_00]: So anyways, that was really fun and then Tuesday night we just went to dinner and you and I don't get to spend that much time together.

07:36.208 --> 07:43.837
[SPEAKER_00]: So having a fancy dinner in New York for an hour and a half was just very life-breaking for me and it was expensive and it was beautiful.

07:44.257 --> 07:53.560
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I got some dessert and went to bed and then on Wednesday was mostly a chill day, but there that was kind of the day that kicks off Comic Con, yeah.

07:54.980 --> 08:02.162
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we got to walk around a little bit at the for the pro events.

08:03.343 --> 08:07.004
[SPEAKER_00]: The coming time is happening, yeah, because people are still setting stuff up too.

08:07.866 --> 08:35.761
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and it's mostly for various folks in the industry, which I always think is cool because it's sort of a place, especially for comics creators and people in the retailers, people that are involved at some point in that chain to kind of support each other, and I think it's sort of a, it's a nice thing because you don't really have the floodgates open yet, and so I think

08:36.621 --> 08:47.381
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, one of the crazy things to me about these cons on the comics front is in in this like in the modern era.

08:48.865 --> 08:54.307
[SPEAKER_01]: unlike in the 60s when you had like Stanley and Jack Kirby in the same room writing and drawing everything.

08:55.027 --> 08:58.148
[SPEAKER_01]: You now have a ton of international art talent.

08:59.529 --> 09:06.871
[SPEAKER_01]: And so you'll have a writer, like for instance, amazing Spider-Man, Joe Kelly lives in New York, Pepe LaRaz lives in Spain.

09:07.711 --> 09:11.933
[SPEAKER_01]: And they're doing all this stuff, they're working together, but oftentimes,

09:12.773 --> 09:19.677
[SPEAKER_01]: these people will never even meet each other unless they have a reason to come and do something together at a convention.

09:20.277 --> 09:29.942
[SPEAKER_01]: So I think it's sort of fun to see folks get to interact in that way before all of the craziness starts.

09:30.983 --> 09:35.004
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we had to hit up raising Keynes in Times Square for dinner that night.

09:35.064 --> 09:36.544
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just live in the fancy live.

09:37.324 --> 09:38.725
[SPEAKER_00]: Which is actually a fun experience.

09:38.865 --> 09:39.525
[SPEAKER_00]: We got to walk.

09:39.825 --> 09:46.126
[SPEAKER_00]: I actually filmed some stuff for social media and went live on YouTube just because there was a vibe.

09:46.266 --> 09:58.629
[SPEAKER_00]: When New York City is 65 degrees and the sun is setting, just walking from my hotel to the Keynes in Times Square, it was just beautiful and just a whole unique experience.

09:59.629 --> 10:02.352
[SPEAKER_00]: You just got, yeah, cars, honk, can you got people walking by?

10:02.372 --> 10:04.874
[SPEAKER_00]: You got all the smells, the sights, the sounds, it was pretty fun.

10:05.214 --> 10:09.679
[SPEAKER_00]: So little canes to close our night and talked a lot about the Wolverine video game while we were there.

10:11.480 --> 10:18.147
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and the Spider-Man video game because anytime you're walking around in New York, it's kind of hard to not think about that.

10:18.887 --> 10:19.388
[SPEAKER_01]: You have.

10:20.369 --> 10:23.352
[SPEAKER_01]: I have to say, as always, Yena, kid.

10:24.443 --> 10:39.820
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I was telling you, I remember when it started in Baton Rouge, for people that don't know, raising Keynes is very much a Louisiana thing that slowly started branching out to other parts of Louisiana when I was in probably junior high.

10:43.403 --> 10:44.384
[SPEAKER_01]: it's so wild to me.

10:44.404 --> 11:00.279
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I remember a couple years ago there was the interview maybe on Jimmy Fallon where Post Malone was talking about eating canes and then now they have this like flagship store in time square in time square.

11:01.493 --> 11:06.956
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, and it's, it's wild, but yeah, it was like a little, uh, pilgrimage for me.

11:07.096 --> 11:11.038
[SPEAKER_00]: So it was, I kind of remember when it was Zaxby's versus Cames.

11:11.078 --> 11:13.719
[SPEAKER_00]: And I feel like Cames is now lapped Zaxby's.

11:13.739 --> 11:14.939
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was just a nervous atmosphere.

11:14.959 --> 11:19.822
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no bias, no bias there either.

11:22.823 --> 11:23.804
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, Thursday.

11:23.824 --> 11:25.584
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so Thursday, um,

11:28.174 --> 11:33.076
[SPEAKER_01]: We were really excited to go to the Marvel TV panel.

11:34.377 --> 11:47.282
[SPEAKER_01]: This was our first time actually getting to go to a big Marvel studio's panel, because of the last couple of years, things have been like they either haven't been having the big panels or we haven't been able to attend.

11:47.702 --> 11:51.964
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think that they had a big one when I was in a New York last time.

11:52.104 --> 11:53.744
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that they had maybe a small,

11:55.888 --> 11:56.988
[SPEAKER_00]: That's exactly right.

11:57.008 --> 12:04.351
[SPEAKER_00]: What happened was the first time I went to San Diego Comic Con and you went to New York Comic Con, Marvel took a year off, if you remember.

12:04.391 --> 12:07.852
[SPEAKER_00]: Like they weren't at either really, and with any kind of big presence.

12:08.312 --> 12:10.193
[SPEAKER_00]: And then, so that year we missed it.

12:10.633 --> 12:13.834
[SPEAKER_00]: And then this last year, I didn't get in.

12:14.034 --> 12:17.995
[SPEAKER_00]: If you remember, I live tweeted from above it from the press room.

12:18.455 --> 12:18.835
[SPEAKER_00]: And then,

12:20.896 --> 12:21.977
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, then here this was different.

12:22.037 --> 12:25.178
[SPEAKER_00]: So this was my first panel Marvel Studios panel period.

12:25.579 --> 12:27.340
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that what is that we were saying to that was your first one.

12:27.360 --> 12:29.361
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think so.

12:29.841 --> 12:32.443
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the energy is really fun.

12:32.583 --> 12:42.788
[SPEAKER_00]: If you ever get a chance to do it, that's kind of the win of it is just that you're in a room with 4,000 or so 3,000 I think it was other Marvel fans and so it's just kind of a fun vibe.

12:44.009 --> 12:45.010
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, people were.

12:46.451 --> 12:54.949
[SPEAKER_01]: very excited uh it's which you know I will say talking to Emily and then going to that panel

12:57.103 --> 12:59.444
[SPEAKER_01]: I was just, you're right, like they were good.

13:00.164 --> 13:07.767
[SPEAKER_01]: They were good vibes all around on the Marvel front this week, which is not always the case.

13:08.228 --> 13:12.770
[SPEAKER_01]: Emily, sometimes we talked to folks that are coming in late in the game to Marvel.

13:13.670 --> 13:18.172
[SPEAKER_01]: And you'll get the sense that they are not

13:19.227 --> 13:30.154
[SPEAKER_01]: necessarily fans of the whole franchise, not that they dislike it, but that they're not particularly invested, that they're just kind of happy to be a part of whatever their project is, which is totally fine.

13:32.615 --> 13:38.179
[SPEAKER_01]: It was really fun to hear Emily be so excited about.

13:39.355 --> 14:03.875
[SPEAKER_01]: being involved in the MCU and talking about rewatching everything and so like that kind of frame to the week and away and then you get to the panel and not only do you have the whole crowd that's just really stoked for everything that's being announced and updated but then like when you have talent come out it felt like there was real like genuine excitement.

14:04.712 --> 14:05.032
[SPEAKER_01]: there.

14:06.333 --> 14:09.954
[SPEAKER_01]: And so we should talk about some of the the the people that that haven't heard.

14:10.895 --> 14:21.939
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's see if I can remember, and I won't get the order exactly right, but they showed us a clip of X-Men 97 season three, which is coming soon, looked cool.

14:23.160 --> 14:32.184
[SPEAKER_01]: It was kind of a look at the brotherhood of the yeah, which was previewed at the very, I mean, that's a classic element of the original series.

14:33.064 --> 14:46.068
[SPEAKER_01]: where you had Fester X in the X-Men versus Bang Nito in the Brotherhood, but we haven't really had that in 97 yet, so we saw Mystique and Pyro and Avalanche and the blob, all those people, so it was fun.

14:46.955 --> 14:47.195
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.

14:47.736 --> 14:55.862
[SPEAKER_00]: We saw an incredible clip, I thought, of your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man season two, which comes in January already.

14:56.142 --> 14:56.643
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe.

14:56.763 --> 14:57.784
[SPEAKER_00]: It was in January something.

14:58.745 --> 15:00.846
[SPEAKER_00]: That, to me, was one of the highlights.

15:01.327 --> 15:11.515
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a clip basically where Harry Osborne is at, like, a gala of some sort and Doc Ock shows up and is trying to get

15:13.255 --> 15:27.797
[SPEAKER_00]: Harry for some reason I can't remember exactly right, but then Spider-Man intervenes and fights against dot cock on the outside of a building felt very much like spider-man The video game or like spider-man 2 spider-man 2 yeah, yeah, and then we saw glimpse of

15:28.658 --> 15:36.420
[SPEAKER_00]: Peter gets some extra strength and gets cracks in his suit and they got filled in by some black suit stuff.

15:36.780 --> 15:38.641
[SPEAKER_00]: And he goes like, what the heck is this?

15:38.961 --> 15:39.621
[SPEAKER_00]: Or what was that?

15:40.101 --> 15:45.262
[SPEAKER_00]: He has no idea and then they ended up teasing a full blown symbiotesuit by the end.

15:45.722 --> 15:47.343
[SPEAKER_00]: And I feel like that kind of brought the house down.

15:48.466 --> 15:54.508
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that, I think was maybe the standout for me in terms of the footage that was shown.

15:54.828 --> 16:03.812
[SPEAKER_01]: You and I were both big fans of season one, and I thought that this looked.

16:04.988 --> 16:07.150
[SPEAKER_01]: very much in step with that.

16:07.451 --> 16:19.042
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that it's poised to if the if the second season sixth landing, I think it will be cemented as the the number one animated show from from Marvel Studios.

16:20.384 --> 16:27.351
[SPEAKER_01]: I also like I it was fun hearing from Jeff Trimell who came out and talked a little bit about it about his

16:28.752 --> 16:33.193
[SPEAKER_01]: work on the new season and what they were trying to accomplish there.

16:33.593 --> 16:42.335
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I am a Jeff Jeff signifies, I guess Jeff symbolizes my favorite part of Comic Con's every time we go.

16:42.956 --> 16:51.838
[SPEAKER_00]: My favorite part is that you are so reminded that the people making this stuff care like Jeff cares.

16:52.118 --> 16:54.719
[SPEAKER_00]: You can't you might not like every decision that a

16:56.520 --> 16:59.004
[SPEAKER_00]: You can't fault him for not caring.

16:59.084 --> 17:00.927
[SPEAKER_00]: Like Brad, Winterbomb cares.

17:01.728 --> 17:06.014
[SPEAKER_00]: Like when Emily cares about how it's received and how it goes.

17:06.194 --> 17:07.877
[SPEAKER_00]: And like they love it.

17:08.678 --> 17:10.220
[SPEAKER_00]: When Terry, Matalesu,

17:11.622 --> 17:14.543
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll talk about VisionQuest a second, but when he got chance to talk, that's what he said.

17:14.583 --> 17:20.425
[SPEAKER_00]: He said, I've been thinking about what I was going to say and what I wanted to say was just how much love went into making that.

17:20.445 --> 17:34.750
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like we loved everything about it and Jeff for some reason to me strikes me as that kind of guy, like a guy who really cares about the source material and like is really trying to tell a great story while honoring that stuff and pushing the boundaries and whatnot.

17:35.030 --> 17:39.132
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyways, and then the fans care, you know, like yeah.

17:39.432 --> 17:45.333
[SPEAKER_00]: If you listeners out there may live in a different bubble where people in your life don't care.

17:45.533 --> 17:53.155
[SPEAKER_00]: Like we get a lot of messages of people that say they like this podcast because they don't have a lot of people to chat about Marvel with, which is totally fair.

17:53.695 --> 18:02.537
[SPEAKER_00]: But you know these common cons you remember, oh, there's hundreds of thousands of people who are willing to wait in a standby line, just to see a glimpse of the news.

18:03.277 --> 18:04.137
[SPEAKER_00]: And marvel thing.

18:04.637 --> 18:09.541
[SPEAKER_00]: Like of all the panels and all the lines, it's not even remotely close to how big marvels is.

18:09.601 --> 18:20.030
[SPEAKER_00]: So despite any perceived flaws or lack of attention or lack of momentum, these cons are always a good reminder that in general, a lot of people care.

18:21.411 --> 18:21.631
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

18:22.131 --> 18:22.372
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

18:22.532 --> 18:29.637
[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, on the, you're friendly neighbor at Spider-Man front, I can't help but be grateful.

18:30.931 --> 18:34.966
[SPEAKER_01]: that we're not looking at some of the same, like,

18:37.870 --> 19:01.684
[SPEAKER_01]: creator, discontinuity issues that we've seen on X-Men 7, where I, because I felt like season 1 went so well, it's really nice to see the leadership continue on to season 2, but yeah, it seems like the studio was in general, it was nice to see everyone get revved

19:07.709 --> 19:23.607
[SPEAKER_01]: could like, you know, animated projects could not necessarily take center stage and those did here in a big way, but then also we got some really fun live action updates first.

19:24.168 --> 19:25.029
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, hold on, hold on.

19:25.449 --> 19:29.732
[SPEAKER_00]: Last thing I also say is they announced three more years of Marvel zombies for the record.

19:30.012 --> 19:30.592
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, right.

19:30.653 --> 19:30.873
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

19:31.033 --> 19:32.974
[SPEAKER_00]: That there's one coming out in a couple weeks.

19:33.034 --> 19:34.355
[SPEAKER_00]: I think for Halloween, right?

19:34.375 --> 19:39.238
[SPEAKER_00]: And then it's like, I think it's, if I remember, right, it's Marvel zombies, the winter soldier.

19:39.979 --> 19:43.781
[SPEAKER_00]: And then next year, I think it's Marvel zombies, the fist of Kanchu.

19:44.642 --> 19:48.565
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the following year, I think it's Marvel zombies,

19:52.167 --> 19:53.287
[SPEAKER_01]: help.

19:53.327 --> 19:54.368
[SPEAKER_00]: But there's another year.

19:54.388 --> 20:01.250
[SPEAKER_01]: So anyway, just we didn't see any clips of it, but they briefly I think the winner soldier is coming out next Halloween.

20:02.070 --> 20:02.810
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, next Halloween.

20:02.870 --> 20:03.030
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

20:03.570 --> 20:03.730
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

20:04.591 --> 20:06.231
[SPEAKER_00]: And then so anyway, it's three more years of it though.

20:06.711 --> 20:09.572
[SPEAKER_00]: And then then the live action stuff.

20:09.592 --> 20:10.592
[SPEAKER_00]: So sorry to interrupt you.

20:12.911 --> 20:29.663
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we also got confirmation, you know, official confirmation, I guess of the zodiac series that's in development, which is live action, and that's really the only announcement of a new thing, right?

20:29.863 --> 20:40.030
[SPEAKER_00]: And all we literally got was that it's like a spy thriller of some sort and the logo and the logo had a few Easter eggs that make people think,

20:41.034 --> 20:44.697
[SPEAKER_00]: it's somewhat tied to or in the vein of agents of shield.

20:45.378 --> 20:47.340
[SPEAKER_00]: So agents of shield truthers rise up.

20:48.514 --> 20:49.915
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, now's your time, maybe.

20:50.515 --> 20:52.396
[SPEAKER_01]: By the way, the last Guardian, that's the other.

20:52.557 --> 20:53.737
[SPEAKER_01]: The last Guardian on this issue.

20:54.178 --> 20:54.538
[SPEAKER_01]: Project.

20:54.978 --> 20:57.500
[SPEAKER_00]: Coming, 2028 Zodiac, I believe, 2020.

20:57.520 --> 21:12.909
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's funny because you and I had a conversation, I think, before that that news broke a couple weeks ago, where we were talking about what we thought would be a good use of live action, Marvel shows.

21:13.990 --> 21:15.431
[SPEAKER_01]: And I remember we talked about,

21:17.052 --> 21:25.618
[SPEAKER_01]: kind of trying to do some combination of what agents of shield had done and what secret invasion had done.

21:27.399 --> 21:31.482
[SPEAKER_01]: And I do wonder if that's kind of what we're getting here.

21:34.184 --> 21:41.309
[SPEAKER_01]: There's sort of a complicated history of what Zodiac means in the context of Marvel Comics, and we'll talk about that down the line.

21:41.830 --> 21:42.550
[SPEAKER_01]: I do wonder,

21:44.822 --> 21:47.703
[SPEAKER_01]: Jonathan Hickman's first Marvel series was called Secret Warriors.

21:48.823 --> 22:07.849
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was very much a, I mean, sort of a blueprint for agents of shield weirdly like the main character in agents of shield shows up in secret warriors as essentially the protagonist.

22:07.889 --> 22:12.931
[SPEAKER_01]: And so there's a lot of synergy overlap.

22:14.093 --> 22:32.391
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so I wonder if like seeing some of the diagrams and stuff within the logo, I wonder if we're going to be pulling more from that, but I think Either way, it's it's always it's fun to have something like that on the horizon and I'm always kind of down to know as little as possible.

22:32.491 --> 22:38.517
[SPEAKER_01]: So I think it's sort of fun that they're insisting on keeping that, you know, cloaked in mystery for now.

22:39.378 --> 22:39.638
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.

22:40.560 --> 22:44.524
[SPEAKER_00]: And then two final live action things.

22:44.824 --> 22:51.292
[SPEAKER_00]: We saw a glimpse of Daredevil born again season three, which they did announce as the final season.

22:52.033 --> 22:58.621
[SPEAKER_00]: It shouldn't be noted that Charlie Cox, who plays Daredevil, Kristen Ritter,

23:00.732 --> 23:18.021
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... fin jones who played iron fist from the o g series and who else was my culture was supposed to be there and but there was four people oh is it was a brad that was on stage red winter bomb as well i think maybe just brand and davis right

23:18.600 --> 23:19.781
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, maybe it was the form of them.

23:20.001 --> 23:20.301
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

23:20.962 --> 23:28.168
[SPEAKER_00]: But we saw a clip of Daredevil season three, the two things, the placement crazy for the Daredevil born again, season three clip.

23:28.828 --> 23:36.715
[SPEAKER_00]: The interesting thing too was that Charlie Cox said, well, we might need to bring back the save Daredevil campaign like we did last time.

23:36.735 --> 23:38.076
[SPEAKER_00]: We saved it one other time before.

23:38.096 --> 23:39.317
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm pretty sure we'll do it again.

23:39.657 --> 23:43.821
[SPEAKER_00]: Like very confidently like this won't be the last season kind of thing.

23:43.861 --> 23:44.822
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.

23:44.862 --> 23:46.103
[SPEAKER_00]: Which I thought was interesting.

23:46.923 --> 24:01.013
[SPEAKER_01]: It, it, yeah, because you and I talked about how like that's probably a fine, you know, like a, you know, better to end intentionally than than kind of Peter out and He just loves my character, I think, man.

24:01.954 --> 24:04.896
[SPEAKER_01]: And my hope is that is that,

24:06.438 --> 24:25.490
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, if it doesn't, if they've dared to all crew does not activate that, that was, is at least going to put him in as many other projects as, you know, he wants to be in because I do think it's a, it's a no-brainer.

24:26.466 --> 24:27.326
[SPEAKER_00]: That's my help too.

24:27.386 --> 24:30.267
[SPEAKER_00]: If we get another Daredevil season, great, I'll absolutely watch it.

24:30.527 --> 24:34.068
[SPEAKER_00]: But if we don't, I still want to see Daredevil all over the place.

24:34.128 --> 24:35.068
[SPEAKER_00]: We'd be nice for me.

24:35.848 --> 24:39.329
[SPEAKER_00]: Because then, because by the way, there are a lot of characters, obviously, that don't have shows.

24:39.369 --> 24:44.411
[SPEAKER_00]: Like that can also be the norm, you know, that he now just goes to movie world and bounces around.

24:45.431 --> 24:47.051
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, we've seen six seasons of it.

24:47.411 --> 24:50.552
[SPEAKER_00]: But the clip we did see was epic.

24:50.852 --> 24:53.813
[SPEAKER_00]: The highlight for me in the clip was Matt's in prison.

24:54.753 --> 25:11.381
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and there's some kind of prison fight or breakout being set up and that rips off his shirt literally and like rips his shirt and a piece is and wraps it around his hands like it's, you know, gloves kind of thing and then take the other part and ties it around his head.

25:11.661 --> 25:19.365
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's like a very OG Daredevil outfit, which by the way, Matt is absolutely strapped when he's shirtless.

25:19.405 --> 25:19.945
[SPEAKER_00]: We didn't know that.

25:19.965 --> 25:22.686
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I thought he was kind of like thinner and frame, but he was like

25:24.427 --> 25:30.053
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like that shot, I think is the most ripped that we've seen Charlie Cox.

25:30.333 --> 25:35.119
[SPEAKER_01]: So the place you just shared out loud in our room.

25:36.420 --> 25:43.828
[SPEAKER_01]: It was, and it's also clearly, we talked about the sum at the end of season two, spoilers for Daredeau of Born Against Season two.

25:46.310 --> 26:03.160
[SPEAKER_01]: When he ends the season in prison, there are two major runs that they seem to be pulling from the brew baker run where he opens in prison as as Matt Murdock, which kind of where we left him, but then also the

26:03.900 --> 26:12.488
[SPEAKER_01]: the chips at Arskie run where he is in prison as Daredevil and where's kind of the orange mask as part of his jumpsuit.

26:13.209 --> 26:21.257
[SPEAKER_01]: And so it was fun to see that as kind of an homage to the the Zarski Kiketo run there.

26:21.337 --> 26:27.583
[SPEAKER_01]: But man that looked like the you know the glimpses of combat we saw on stuff looked.

26:28.964 --> 26:33.129
[SPEAKER_01]: as good as anything else that that we've seen from Daredevil.

26:33.249 --> 26:35.691
[SPEAKER_01]: So I I thought that was really fun.

26:36.172 --> 26:41.678
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm curious to see what the defenders stuff turns into.

26:43.820 --> 26:44.942
[SPEAKER_01]: It's so funny how

26:47.367 --> 26:48.568
[SPEAKER_01]: we've talked about this before.

26:48.588 --> 26:53.270
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a point where enough time passes and people get nostalgic for everything.

26:53.450 --> 26:55.330
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, right, right, right, right, right.

26:55.871 --> 26:58.792
[SPEAKER_00]: Now this is the defenders were awesome and yeah.

26:59.492 --> 27:09.757
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's just because even the, like, I've just seen some of the coverage around it, some of the interviews, obviously the cast is going to say stuff like this, but just seeing like, you know, who does love the defenders?

27:10.779 --> 27:18.412
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, I think I think I think that's a brand and say what he brought him out.

27:18.472 --> 27:21.857
[SPEAKER_00]: And who does he love the defenders and how's the world manner people going to share for that?

27:25.039 --> 27:45.667
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a fun crew and even Fin Jones, you know, I think maybe there's room to send that character out on a, on a high note, but yeah, curious to see what Daredevil born against season three leads to we did see a shot of Fisk also in the trailer.

27:47.288 --> 27:56.547
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, but it was still on the beach and he was like very bearded up and you know, yeah, like clearly Exiled and he's screaming in the clip.

27:56.647 --> 27:56.848
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah

27:59.509 --> 28:06.814
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, there was also a shot of the other three defenders in like the mayor's office right or a courtroom or something.

28:06.834 --> 28:11.857
[SPEAKER_00]: They were there and that's where they say like man should there be four of us were missing one and that's what it cuts to Matt.

28:12.337 --> 28:15.239
[SPEAKER_00]: But again, what is causing them to assemble?

28:15.980 --> 28:17.861
[SPEAKER_00]: If Fisk is not there, we don't know.

28:18.001 --> 28:20.643
[SPEAKER_00]: We didn't get any glimpse of like a bad guy of any sorts.

28:20.763 --> 28:22.745
[SPEAKER_01]: And aren't they getting badges?

28:23.185 --> 28:24.066
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that what was happening?

28:24.946 --> 28:25.687
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, something.

28:26.227 --> 28:42.996
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I think it was because actually because yeah, they're like where there should be four of these, but yeah, so I, you know, in in the Like we said before and in the devil's rain comic that season two really pulled from it ends with Luke Cage

28:44.296 --> 28:47.338
[SPEAKER_01]: in a position as as mayor.

28:47.919 --> 29:08.813
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think that that's where we're going here, but it is interesting that we're kind of going from having this like fascistic like fisc regime where it's all of these criminals that are kind of empowered to be cops to maybe the opposite.

29:08.853 --> 29:09.253
[SPEAKER_01]: We're now we

29:13.173 --> 29:29.193
[SPEAKER_01]: someone and I don't I don't know if like maybe the deputy mayor is still acting as mayor I feel like that's that's sort of what we saw in brand new day although I don't know if that was confirmed that she was acting as mayor but

29:30.512 --> 29:32.553
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyway, well, she was doing the keys thing, but yeah.

29:33.553 --> 29:45.276
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Vision Quest, the cast from Vision Quest, as I talked about Terry Matelas who directed it or directed the last two episodes and is the showrunner, we talked about that already.

29:45.516 --> 29:47.216
[SPEAKER_00]: They showed us the full episode.

29:47.817 --> 29:50.057
[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, I think people are gonna love Vision Quest.

29:50.197 --> 29:57.019
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know that we need to talk about it a ton because I think we're gonna have an episode tomorrow giving our initial reactions to the actual first two episodes.

29:57.239 --> 29:57.839
[SPEAKER_00]: It's out of your mind.

29:57.859 --> 29:59.700
[SPEAKER_01]: And you already have no spoiler for your reactions out.

30:00.440 --> 30:04.422
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but it was it was really fun and what we've seen looks really great.

30:04.462 --> 30:05.462
[SPEAKER_00]: It was fun seeing the cast.

30:06.603 --> 30:09.404
[SPEAKER_00]: The headline of all this is going to be James Spader as all-tron.

30:10.865 --> 30:13.106
[SPEAKER_00]: Just that all-tron is back and James Spader's back.

30:13.126 --> 30:14.387
[SPEAKER_00]: That's going to steal the show, I think.

30:15.007 --> 30:16.728
[SPEAKER_01]: It was really fun watching.

30:18.010 --> 30:30.062
[SPEAKER_01]: a pilot like a first episode of a series like that on this massive screen with thousands of people like I've I've never experienced anything like that I don't think like

30:31.018 --> 30:59.955
[SPEAKER_01]: watching something for the first time with that big of a crowd was cool and people were really feeling it like there was good you know you can like tell when something's connecting or or not and it's just so often when we're watching these things for the first time especially when we're watching screeners you're you're like cramming it in a hotel room or you're watching it on an iPad on a plane or something and so it's really fun to see like

31:00.775 --> 31:26.186
[SPEAKER_01]: a series of all things in in that context and it looked great like like visually on the on the big screen like seeing all of that stuff I thought that the effects held up and so it does yeah you're going to enjoy it and yeah it was nice seeing like Paul and James on stage and James Spader is being kind of loveably

31:28.387 --> 31:29.748
[SPEAKER_00]: He was like almost staying in danger.

31:30.269 --> 31:30.889
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.

31:31.109 --> 31:32.991
[SPEAKER_00]: Almost intentionally actually like all try and I think.

31:33.091 --> 31:34.272
[SPEAKER_00]: That was my perception of it.

31:34.492 --> 31:34.692
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

31:34.832 --> 31:36.854
[SPEAKER_00]: He was like just show the thing in his voice.

31:37.134 --> 31:41.117
[SPEAKER_00]: You know like, that's kind of fun.

31:41.237 --> 31:55.748
[SPEAKER_00]: And then maybe most importantly, by the way, shout out our manager, Pete, friend, Pete, the engine face of the discord came down from Boston area from Connecticut came down, I'm sorry, Alan.

31:55.808 --> 31:56.789
[SPEAKER_00]: Providence Rhode Island, right?

31:58.421 --> 31:59.341
[SPEAKER_00]: I just threw them all together.

32:00.321 --> 32:03.242
[SPEAKER_00]: Manager Pete came on down from the old northeast.

32:03.462 --> 32:06.563
[SPEAKER_00]: Took a train into New York and we had an epic night.

32:07.003 --> 32:17.085
[SPEAKER_00]: Not only celebrating this podcast, but also for the listeners out there, three plus hours of brainstorming what this podcast can be over Chipsing guac in Jolata.

32:17.165 --> 32:18.445
[SPEAKER_00]: So what a win, shout out Pete.

32:21.606 --> 32:24.466
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

32:24.486 --> 32:25.927
[SPEAKER_01]: I, that was really fun.

32:28.649 --> 32:34.170
[SPEAKER_01]: I think, yeah, you know, we've got some big stuff coming on.

32:34.190 --> 32:35.290
[SPEAKER_01]: We're getting an only fans.

32:35.450 --> 32:38.931
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, friends from work is really quick and new.

32:38.951 --> 32:44.292
[SPEAKER_01]: From work after dark after dark after dark.

32:44.552 --> 32:46.153
[SPEAKER_01]: I also, his idea.

32:46.173 --> 32:47.613
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to know what's going on there.

32:48.053 --> 32:49.854
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, but look, you can't.

32:50.414 --> 32:51.874
[SPEAKER_01]: There's some things you just can't work you with.

32:53.813 --> 33:09.226
[SPEAKER_01]: The other thing that I really loved about the Marvel Studios Marvel television panel was one we got kind of a great general update state of the union from Brad Winderbomb.

33:09.926 --> 33:17.813
[SPEAKER_01]: But also they brought Steve Wacker out on stage who is the new EIC of Marvel Comics.

33:19.230 --> 33:21.552
[SPEAKER_01]: And at the 10 to 10 a few minutes.

33:21.732 --> 33:23.454
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, at the TV panel.

33:23.734 --> 33:29.559
[SPEAKER_01]: And he got to kind of pitch what's going on over on the comic side, which we'll talk about here in a second.

33:29.619 --> 33:47.994
[SPEAKER_01]: But I think one takeaway for me from the whole experience is that Marvel is, I think, really, we've said before, like, I feel like Marvel's been on its back foot on the comic side for a bit now trying to figure out what it, it's,

33:49.097 --> 34:05.112
[SPEAKER_01]: central focuses at the moment like they're putting out a number of good books, but it just doesn't really feel like they have really had a concerted push the way that you've been seeing from DC currently or from Marvel in the past.

34:06.194 --> 34:11.719
[SPEAKER_01]: And I really felt like this this week was them.

34:13.328 --> 34:27.888
[SPEAKER_01]: signaling that they're correcting that, like that they're really not only trying to make sure that Marvel Comics is back at the forefront of comics culture, but also that they're really

34:29.049 --> 34:49.057
[SPEAKER_01]: being supported by what the studio is doing, and instead of just vice versa, sometimes it can feel like the comics are just kind of there to funnel more stuff into the shows or just a way to capitalize off of what the show is doing by having a daredevil many series or something.

34:49.678 --> 34:54.479
[SPEAKER_01]: But it seems like they're really trying to be more creatively intertwined than that.

34:57.008 --> 35:10.655
[SPEAKER_01]: I love seeing Brad and Steve on stage there, and then at the Marvel Comics panels that I got to go to the following day, Brad was there.

35:13.756 --> 35:37.187
[SPEAKER_01]: watching and and wasn't on stage, but was just there for I don't know like support two and a half hours of panels just kind of sitting there and and being a part of the like nitty gritty comics stuff and listening to fan Q&A is and so it seems like they are like with Steve coming in and with him working directly with Brad.

35:39.849 --> 35:40.569
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that

35:42.700 --> 35:52.614
[SPEAKER_01]: It all, it boats well, I think, uh, all in all for the, the kind of creative juices flowing here in the coming years.

35:53.715 --> 35:56.479
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's why I think we've used the word synergy a few times.

35:56.499 --> 35:58.621
[SPEAKER_00]: It just feels like there's a lot of good synergy.

35:59.885 --> 36:12.896
[SPEAKER_00]: between kind of all of the people and all of the outlets, the comics and TV and the fans seemed into it, the shows, the movies, Marvel Studios have been making, have been really well received, they've felt really good.

36:12.936 --> 36:15.358
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they got another hit on their hands with vision quest.

36:16.379 --> 36:22.203
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think they're moving all the marketing stuff up so that the runway can be cleared.

36:23.104 --> 36:36.893
[SPEAKER_00]: four a good five weeks before doomsday but doomsday is less than two months away for us right now like as we said yeah which is crazy which is crazy and then what's that gonna mean for the whole rest of the universe but it just feels like in general

36:38.735 --> 36:44.721
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like this kind of cement that we've officially exited that stage of some of the question marks, if you will.

36:45.381 --> 36:48.104
[SPEAKER_00]: And it feels like the reins are back together.

36:48.124 --> 36:54.670
[SPEAKER_00]: Like Kevin's holding the reins and like the team is all segmented out correctly with Brad and Steve, is a Steve Wacker you said, Steve?

36:55.191 --> 36:55.651
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

36:56.572 --> 36:59.075
[SPEAKER_00]: It just feels like there's a lot of good synergy right now.

36:59.615 --> 36:59.956
[SPEAKER_00]: for sure.

37:00.197 --> 37:01.379
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

37:02.522 --> 37:08.776
[SPEAKER_01]: I, to your point about about the Marvel stuff being in demand on Friday,

37:10.546 --> 37:24.053
[SPEAKER_01]: I wound up going to the panel before the Marvel Comics panel, just to get a seat, so that I wasn't going to be cutting it too close.

37:24.953 --> 37:29.935
[SPEAKER_01]: I was glad that I did because I think there were a lot of folks that didn't get in the line.

37:30.316 --> 37:37.679
[SPEAKER_01]: The line was crazy for the panel beforehand, and it was not a massive Marvel Comics panel.

37:40.737 --> 37:54.746
[SPEAKER_01]: that was also encouraging, but it was also fun, you know, hearing a lot of these new announcements and a lot of, you know, friends of our show are, like, working on things, continuing to work

37:58.768 --> 38:01.209
[SPEAKER_01]: some more big stuff coming up with amazing spider-man.

38:01.309 --> 38:06.890
[SPEAKER_01]: They just had amazing spider-man issue 1,000 come out a couple weeks ago, which is crazy.

38:07.930 --> 38:13.211
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the first Marvel comic to ever hit a 1,000th issue.

38:13.231 --> 38:16.772
[SPEAKER_01]: I got to talk to Joe about that a little bit too.

38:18.572 --> 38:21.533
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, so that's going talk to Ryan North for a second.

38:22.313 --> 38:24.314
[SPEAKER_01]: His fantastic four run is going strong.

38:24.514 --> 38:25.094
[SPEAKER_01]: I actually think

38:26.204 --> 38:33.490
[SPEAKER_01]: Ryan North's fantastic for Run is still the best book that Marvel's putting out at the moment, so it makes me really happy that they seem to be all in there.

38:35.052 --> 38:41.257
[SPEAKER_01]: And then kind of the big news on the Marvel front, they are

38:42.962 --> 38:47.867
[SPEAKER_01]: They're doing the, you know, the chips at our ski Avengers stuff is a big push and I think there's a lot going on there.

38:48.988 --> 38:59.620
[SPEAKER_01]: I should say they're also bringing G willow Wilson back for a new Captain Marvel series, but midnight is the big Marvel comics.

39:01.069 --> 39:02.169
[SPEAKER_01]: thing right now.

39:02.289 --> 39:19.435
[SPEAKER_01]: It's sort of another mini line, but they are apparently planning for this to go on for a long time, whether this is their response to the absolute stuff on the DC side or response that I'm canceling the ultimate relaunch on the Marvel side.

39:20.536 --> 39:20.756
[SPEAKER_01]: There was

39:24.737 --> 39:32.144
[SPEAKER_01]: Philip Kennedy Johnson and Ben Percy and Jonathan Hickman, who are kind of the architects of this new universe.

39:32.184 --> 39:40.212
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like a dark horror version of the kind of marble mainstays.

39:40.393 --> 39:43.796
[SPEAKER_01]: So there's a Spider-Man fantastic for an X-Men book.

39:44.897 --> 39:45.057
[SPEAKER_01]: And

39:45.978 --> 39:51.947
[SPEAKER_01]: That was really exciting to hear about because you can tell the creators are really, really invested in what they're doing.

39:52.387 --> 40:00.459
[SPEAKER_01]: Hickman said it's his favorite book he's written in a long time, which is, say something, uh, and uh,

40:01.483 --> 40:19.811
[SPEAKER_01]: It was also, again, that's where not just Brad Winderbaum, like the, a lot of the Marvel top brass was around Dan Buckley, the former president, was there, and actually is someone that helped launch the series.

40:19.851 --> 40:28.074
[SPEAKER_01]: I think he and Hickman, weirdly, are Dan Buckley and Hickman were the ones that first said the idea for the series.

40:29.755 --> 40:32.736
[SPEAKER_01]: really invested in that apparently it's already selling like crazy.

40:33.256 --> 40:43.038
[SPEAKER_01]: It released the Wednesday that we were in New York in lines were out the door at the midtown comics location there.

40:44.799 --> 40:47.219
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was kind of a crazy thing.

40:47.279 --> 40:52.480
[SPEAKER_01]: Marvel normally puts out any given Wednesday a bunch of

41:00.483 --> 41:06.650
[SPEAKER_01]: That week, they were the only Marvel Comics that you could buy, which was sort of a bold thing on the marketing front.

41:06.710 --> 41:07.971
[SPEAKER_01]: So there was a lot of buzz there.

41:09.293 --> 41:18.863
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's when at that panel, I had a chance to talk with some of the editors at

41:19.604 --> 41:34.066
[SPEAKER_01]: Marvel and also to Brad Winterbomb for a bit and we talked some about the what we've been talking about here, the push to to kind of support Marvel Comics more and

41:35.307 --> 41:38.708
[SPEAKER_01]: it's just it's so clear that that is a priority for him.

41:40.308 --> 41:57.392
[SPEAKER_01]: He's I think very passionate about having Steve Wacker in that role and feels really confident about what he's already doing in end the direction and I think how all of that will again work together to support studio stuff.

42:04.233 --> 42:15.079
[SPEAKER_01]: because Brad was just a super nice guy and very generous with this time, but also kind of encouraging from Marvel Comics Amar Studios fan standpoint.

42:17.020 --> 42:17.881
[SPEAKER_00]: That's so great.

42:20.642 --> 42:21.162
[SPEAKER_01]: It's good stuff.

42:24.244 --> 42:25.585
[SPEAKER_00]: Good stuff.

42:27.346 --> 42:29.587
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, should we, we should keep this short, right?

42:29.607 --> 42:31.788
[SPEAKER_00]: Cause we got another episode coming tomorrow for Liz.

42:31.808 --> 42:32.108
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

42:34.277 --> 42:35.377
[SPEAKER_00]: We had a great time.

42:35.917 --> 42:37.118
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of good synergy.

42:37.498 --> 42:44.420
[SPEAKER_00]: We talked to a lot of cool people, shout out to the people we got to say hi to and listeners of the show that we got to meet.

42:45.440 --> 42:46.960
[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll see where this goes.

42:47.020 --> 42:47.780
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe we'll find next year.

42:47.840 --> 42:48.201
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see.

42:48.461 --> 42:49.901
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, things could look, yeah, I don't know.

42:50.121 --> 42:50.421
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

42:51.401 --> 42:52.142
[SPEAKER_00]: We know that, yeah.

42:52.642 --> 42:55.162
[SPEAKER_00]: I think if you're going to enjoy vision quests, doomsday is going to be unbelievable.

42:55.222 --> 42:57.383
[SPEAKER_00]: Daredevil next spring, we'll go from there.

42:58.220 --> 43:14.411
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I said, there were a lot of fun comics announcements, this week there was also like an announcement from DC that they're doing an absolute justice, which I think will now be the combination of the main justice league characters in that universe, which hasn't really happened yet.

43:15.251 --> 43:16.172
[SPEAKER_01]: I say all that to say.

43:17.370 --> 43:36.417
[SPEAKER_01]: ton of comics stuff we haven't even gotten into, but if you are someone that reads comics or interested in comics or getting more into them, we do have a comics partner here and that is panel bound comics.

43:37.617 --> 43:53.847
[SPEAKER_01]: and they have a lot of really fun stuff coming out here in the next couple of weeks right now they're running a horror sale and we actually I wrote a little bit about this in the Sunday Post this past week but

43:55.408 --> 44:00.550
[SPEAKER_01]: you can get like the Alan Moore swamp thing box set.

44:00.630 --> 44:07.773
[SPEAKER_01]: I think also if you want to do the absolute like big prestige additions, I think they've got all of that 50% off.

44:08.013 --> 44:08.954
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a book I would really

44:15.345 --> 44:35.135
[SPEAKER_01]: like new indie things coming out uh this this coming week uh a new printing of once in future by uh Kieran Gillen and Dan Mora that uh is also going to be at a really good price on panelbound comics as well as uh some new homies from DC and Marvel.

44:35.515 --> 44:37.796
[SPEAKER_01]: So if any of this stuff excites you

44:41.058 --> 44:48.765
[SPEAKER_01]: really exciting creators right now on both the big two and end decide have some new collections coming out here in the next month or so.

44:49.305 --> 45:01.095
[SPEAKER_01]: So I would go check out panel bound comics and also subscribe to our newsletter because that's where we'll have some more recommendations like that and where you all have all of Greg's news updates.

45:02.050 --> 45:10.197
[SPEAKER_00]: I saw that you already put in a text with panel bond comment saying, hey, how soon are we going to get the Avengers stuff restocked from Jonathan Hickman?

45:10.237 --> 45:13.740
[SPEAKER_00]: So just yeah, yeah, and we got some good news on my little bit.
