  1. Episode 116: Victor Borkowski (feat. Jay Jurden)

    8 NOV

    Episode 116: Victor Borkowski (feat. Jay Jurden)

    In Episode 116 of CEREBRO, Connor and returning guest comedian Jay Jurden refuse to blend in with Victor Borkowski, the aggravating Anole! Created by Nunzio DeFillipis, Christina Weir, and Keron Grant, Victor is one of the more enduring characters from the Academy X generation. Devised for an 'issue story' about gay teen suicide that was ultimately nixed by Marvel editorial, in the decades since — like many in his age cohort — he has struggled to find a consistent role in the franchise. Things are looking up for the character, however, with his new gig as a regular cast member in NYX, written by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly as part of the From the Ashes linewide relaunch. The CEREBRO character file on Anole begins at 46:33. (Content Advisory: Victor's story includes homophobia. This episode also discusses a storyline about suicide that was planned but never published.) You can support CEREBRO on Patreon!

  2. Bonus Episode: Iron Man #1 (feat. Spencer Ackerman)

    Bonus Episode: Iron Man #1 (feat. Spencer Ackerman)

    Hey there, Zalagang! Today I'm joined by beloved friend of the pod Spencer Ackerman for a very special bonus episode: a discussion of his new ongoing title Iron Man! The first arc of this new run picks up from Gerry Duggan's finale, following Tony Stark as he struggles to recover from a catastrophic injury — while also fending off a hostile takeover by the nefarious board of directors Feilong appointed in his absence. It features stunning art by Julius Ohta and a cavalcade of glamorous supervillainesses. I loved it. This episode contains FULL SPOILERS for Iron Man #1, so please read the issue before listening.

    2 OCT

    Bonus Episode: Storm #1 (feat. Murewa Ayodele)

    Hey there, Zalagang! Today I'm joined by Marvel writer Murewa Ayodele (I Am Iron Man) to discuss his new title Storm, which debuts today as part of the From the Ashes relaunch! This new solo series follows Ororo Munroe as she attempts to establish herself as a local superheroine in Atlanta, Georgia, while juggling her obligations to both mutantkind and the Avengers. At the same time, she must assert herself responsibly as a global political figure after her time as Regent of Arakko. This episode contains FULL SPOILERS for Storm #1, so please read the issue before listening. You can support CEREBRO on Patreon!

  4. Episode 115: Jeanne-Marie Beaubier (feat. Sara Century)

    1 OCT

    Episode 115: Jeanne-Marie Beaubier (feat. Sara Century)

    In Episode 115 of CEREBRO, Connor and returning fan favorite guest Sara Century double their fun(?) with Jeanne-Marie Beaubier, the audacious Aurora! Created by John Byrne and Chris Claremont, but primarily developed by Byrne, Aurora is the twin sister of her Alpha Flight teammate Northstar, from whom she was separated at birth. Unfortunately, her abusive upbringing in a cruel orphanage left her with a very soap opera-style split personality — and the endless struggle to integrate cold, prudish Jeanne-Marie and arrogant, irrepressible Aurora into a stable whole has dominated the character's stories over her long, often frustrating publication history. The CEREBRO character file on Aurora begins at 1:00:47. (Content Advisory: Jeanne-Marie's story includes child abuse including child sex abuse, sexual violence, domestic violence, attempted suicide, torture, and extreme ableism. This episode features frank discussion of exploitation cinema, including the rape-revenge horror/action subgenre. Aurora has a very distressing history. Please take care.)

  5. Episode 114: Namor McKenzie (feat. Spencer Ackerman)

    18 SEPT

    Episode 114: Namor McKenzie (feat. Spencer Ackerman)

    In Episode 114 of CEREBRO, Connor and returning fan favorite guest Spencer Ackerman live the life aquatic with Namor McKenzie, the studly Sub-Mariner! Created by Bill Everett in 1939, Namor is among Marvel's earliest characters, one of only a handful to be carried over from predecessor imprint Timely Comics. Arguably the first antihero in the superhero genre, the Sub-Mariner was reimagined in the Silver Age as a sometime foe of the Fantastic Four, a romantic complication for leading lady Sue Storm. In the 21st century, after many years of stories technically designating him as a mutant, Namor finally spent a stretch of time in the X-Men franchise in work by Matt Fraction and Kieron Gillen. The result here is a strange, undersea adventure for which Connor is not entirely prepared. First, though, a little chat about Spencer's new gig as the incoming writer of Iron Man! The CEREBRO character file on the Sub-Mariner begins at 1:15:06. (Content Advisory: Namor's story includes racism, colonialism, genocide, and sexual violence.) You can support CEREBRO on Patreon!

  6. Teaser: CEREBRO Live! at FlameCon 2024 (feat. Anthony Oliveira)

    20 AGO

    Teaser: CEREBRO Live! at FlameCon 2024 (feat. Anthony Oliveira)

    Surprise! After some technical difficulties last year, last weekend for the third annual CEREBRO live show at FlameCon we did manage to pull the audio from the sound board. There are a few little hiccups, but overall I am really happy with the sound quality. Here is a quick six-minute teaser of the full live episode, which has a runtime of 1:16:26 and is now available on the CEREBRO Patreon at the House of Zaladane tier ($5/month). This year I was joined by friend of the pod Anthony Oliviera to talk about his new Marvel digital comic Avengers Academy, featuring the mutant character Escapade... and then generally tangent into other things, exactly as one might expect from me and Anthony Oliviera sitting on a stage together. At the halfway mark we pivot to a very fun Q&A segment. This performance was recorded on August 17th, 2024 at the Sheraton Times Square in Manhattan. Thanks to Tony for being my guest, to FlameCon for being my absolute favorite regional convention, and to everyone who attended the show. I wish the audience was more audible on the track! You were amazing. Our Sponsors: * Check out Uncommon Goods: https://uncommongoods.com/CEREBRO Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

    Bonus Episode: NYX (feat. Jackson Lanzing & Collin Kelly)

    Hey there, Zalagang! Today I'm joined by Marvel writers Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing to discuss their new title NYX, which debuts today as part of the From the Ashes relaunch! This new volume of NYX follows a cast of young mutants, including Kamala Khan, Sophie of the Stepford Cuckoos, David Alleyne, Victor Borkowski, and Laura Kinney, as they come to terms with the traumatic loss of Krakoa and try to find a new way forward in New York City. It's a lot of fun despite the heavy themes, and I really dug this first issue. This episode contains FULL SPOILERS for NYX #1, so please read the issue before listening.

  8. Episode 113: Hope Summers (feat. Kieron Gillen)

    15 JUL

    Episode 113: Hope Summers (feat. Kieron Gillen)

    In Episode 113 of CEREBRO, Connor and returning guest Kieron Gillen meet their maker with the mutant messiah, Hope Summers! Created as an infant by Mike Carey and Chris Bachalo, then developed extensively by writer Duane Swierczynski, baby Hope was the first mutant somehow born after the Decimation eradicated the future potential of the x-gene, and her prophesied birth made her a target from her first breaths. Quickly orphaned in a massacre and spirited away to the future by her adoptive father Cable, Hope had a number of false starts on her long messianic journey, but finally achieved her cosmic purpose on Krakoa. This is also the afterparty for Kieron's remarkable second tenure on X-Men, and a salute to the First Krakoan Age. Kieron's new creator-owned book The Power Fantasy is coming soon from Image Comics, and the final order cutoff date for issue #1 is today, July 15th! Call your local comic shop and ask for it by name. The CEREBRO character file on Hope begins at 43:19. (Content Advisory: Hope's story includes genocide, suicide, and the mass murder of infants. You know. Messiah stuff.) You can support CEREBRO on Patreon! Our Sponsors: * Check out Uncommon Goods: https://uncommongoods.com/CEREBRO Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
