    S4E5 - Three Men and a Boss Baby

    S4E5 - Three Men and a Boss Baby

    “And then Spider-Man took Scorpion to the diaper factory” 
    Season 4 Episode 5 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series is “Partners”
    After a break between episodes due to some non-neogenic life events, Henry and Jack are back to talk about maybe the most outrageous episode of the show so far. We've got some spider-creepin', cyborg humilation, and the one and only Crime Boss Baby: Silvermane. As well as investigating the science of baby geniuses and armchair therapising Alisa and Alistair, we get waylaid by the true titular partners of the episode, the neogenic odd couple AKA a cohabiting Vulture and Scorpion. The trenchcoat economy is back in business, baby.

    Alongside a cavalcade of returning plot threads from early seasons, we delve into some of the voices behind the cartoon and briefly flashback to some Silvermane comic stories that do not involve talking babies.

    Comic Book Adaptations: How Faithful Should They Be?

    Comic Book Adaptations: How Faithful Should They Be?

    This episode Jack is joined by Diego Crespo + Gene Aversa from The Waffle Press to talk about our favourite comic book adaptations and ask the big questions: what makes a good comic adaptation? How faithful should they be to the source material? Can we survive this conversation without talking about the current Spider-Man comics? (the answer is no).
    This week we took suggestions from the lovely weirdos in our Discord. If you want to join in to talk movies, comics, TV, or just share dumb memes without the hateful nonsense of other social media platforms, join us in The Radioactive Spider-Hole.

    Weird Lore BS #13: Meet The Kravens

    Weird Lore BS #13: Meet The Kravens

    Oh boy. Did you know that Kraven the Hunter had children? Did you know there are close to 100 KRAVEN CHILDREN? Did you know one of them is a kaiju from outer space?? Well, don’t worry, there’s plenty more to learn from this absurd family history. #TheYearOfKraven
    Note: this episode was recorded before it was announced that the Kraven the Hunter movie has been delayed until 2024.

    Weird Lore BS #12: CALYPSO

    Weird Lore BS #12: CALYPSO

    Calypso, loving(?) partner to Kraven the Hunter, has a short but wild ride through Marvel Comics history. From her bongo-playing origins in the early 80s to her confusing and unfortunate demise in the 90s, there’s a lot to talk about with this voodoo witch – including but not limited to: a brief history on Marvel going bankrupt, the coming of the edgelord Arachknight, stepson hijinks, devil doppelgangers, and a few more reasons why Henry will never read a comic book. I wonder why half of these issues aren’t on Marvel Unlimited? #TheYearOfKraven
    If you want to check out the images we’re talking about, Jack put together all the comic panels for you to check out on the blog here.
    Issues referenced:
    Amazing Spider-Man #209 (1980), Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man #65 (1982), Spider-Man #1-5 (1990), Daredevil (1964) #310-11 (1992), Daredevil Annual #9 (1993), Web of Spider-Man #109-10 (1994), Spider-Man ’97 #1 (1997), Spectacular Spider-Man #249-253
    Quotes from:
    Dave Wallace’s review of The Complete Todd McFarlane Spider-Man, Comics Bulletin; 2007 interview between Danny Fingeroth and Todd McFarlane, Write Now #16.

    S4E4 – Somehow, Kraven Returned

    S4E4 – Somehow, Kraven Returned

    Season 4 Episode 4 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series is “The Return of Kraven”
    The third entry in the loose trilogy of Kraven appearances is here to be side-tracked by conversations about racism and Bananaman. But back to the episode, we’ve got a mysterious creature on the loose and a hunt through the jungles of New York to find it. What is this, season 1?
    Kraven has returned, again, somehow. No comic backstory this time and to Jack’s surprise no voodoo either. But don’t worry, that just means we’ve got one in the chamber for Weird Lore BS Corner… once we silence those darn bongos…
