  1. WAS WONDER MAN EVER INTERESTING (PRE-MCU)?

    3D AGO

    WAS WONDER MAN EVER INTERESTING (PRE-MCU)?

    Look, up in the sky... oh no, hang on, that's someone else. Join Colin and Nick as they take a look at a hero neither of them has paid much attention to before, Simon Williams AKA Wonder Man as they ask the question:- is it worth bothering with the comics or should you just watch the excellent series instead (what do you mean, "leading question"?) Also they take a look at his brother, the Grim Reaper and Doorman (who is generally unrelated to Wonder Man with the exception of the series). Enjoy! Issues Read 1045. Wonder Man  Avengers (1963) #9 (first) Avengers (1963) #194 (just the Beast / Wonder Man bits- very much an ensemble piece) Avengers (1998) #11 (lot of words - skip non-Wondy bits) Wonder Man (2006) #1 628. Grim Reaper   Avengers (1963) #52 (first) 319. Doorman Great Lakes Avengers (2016) #2 SUPPORT US: See the full character order, suggest more for us to read and get bonus content on Patreon GET IN TOUCH: Email us INSTAGRAM: abombtozzzax RATE, REVIEW, LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and SHARE!

  2. WHO'S THE SCARIEST SENTINEL?

    FEB 13

    WHO'S THE SCARIEST SENTINEL?

    Look out, the machines are taking over! In what feels like a very timely episode, Colin and Nick take a look at the man-made machines menacing the mutants of the Marvel universe (yeah, maybe all this Stan and Jack has been rubbing off on us, alliteratively speaking). Are the Sentinels a terrifying look at the future of robotics or another 60s misunderstanding of how robots work? Is it OK to just do the Iron Giant but with a sentinel? What is a Siege Perilous? And does Bastion's origin make any sense at all? Listen and find out! Issues Read:- 244. Bastion  Machine Man / Bastion Annual '98 245. Bolivar Trask Uncanny X-Men (1963) #14 246. Mastermold Uncanny X-Men (1963) 15 247. Sentinels  Uncanny X-Men (1963) 98 248.

    DAMAGE CONTROL VS THE WRECKING CREW

    Let's get wrecked! This week, Colin and Nick are taking a look at Damage Control and the Wrecking Crew as next on the list is Bart Rozum (no, us neither). It's thumping, smashing, head-butting frenzy of destruction (and mildly incompetent clean-up) Issues Read:- Bart Rozum & Damage Control (group)  Damage Control #1 (Sept 1989) Wrecking Crew  Defenders (1974) #18-19 413.

    KRAVEN THE HUNTER

    Colin and Nick are joined by returning and (hopefully) recurring pal James O'Donoghue to take a look at Spidey's animal-tracking foe, Kraven The Hunter. It's also a chance to (mercifully) finish off our look at the SPUMC movies with a bit of chat about Kraven's inexplicable movie. Plus, given that they also feature in the film, we'll dive into Rhino, Chameleon and Calypso too.

    HAIL HYDRA!

    BARON STRUCKER, VIPER, BOB AND GORGON Join Colin and Nick as they take a look at a fascist organisation hellbent on world domination (yes, maybe a bit on the nose in early 2026). They take a look at Baron Strucker (baldy fascist), Viper (sexy fascist), Gorgon (stabby fascist) and Bob (in-it-for-the-healthcare fascist). Cut off the head and two shall grow!

    THE EPISODE THAT'S NOT AN EPISODE

    Colin and Nick are still taking a little post-festive break so, to tide you over in the meantime, here's a little taster of some of the bonus content that we're putting out on the Patreon in a frankly shameless attempt to encourage new subscribers (boo, capitalism!). We talk a little bit about the Zombie, Simon Garth, and the Marvel universe's version of Frankenstein's Monster (both covered way back in Season 1 episode 19, fact fans!) Enjoy and we'll be back with full episodes from next week!
