    Why is the MCU Multiverse Collapsing? + Vision vs Ultron & The DC Curse!

    The MCU Multiverse isn't just collapsing on its own—our heroes are the ones destroying it. Today on the Only Comics podcast, Mike and Adrian break down exactly how Doctor Strange, Wanda, Loki, and Monica Rambeau have been slowly tearing apart the fabric of reality through incursions, dreamwalking, and branch timelines. This isn't just a Kang problem anymore; it's the perfect setup for Doctor Doom to step in and save the day in Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars. Plus, with Marvel's Vision Quest officially dropping on Disney+, we are diving deep into the dark, tragic comic book lore of Vision and Ultron. What actually makes a synthesized Avenger human? We look at Vision's twisted attempt to build a robotic family and why his comic history is much darker than the MCU has shown so far. But it's not all Marvel today! We have to ask: is DC Studios officially cursed? The Batman Part II has been delayed again, and we are holding absolutely nothing back in our review of the Lanterns HBO series finale. Spoiler alert: it was a disaster. Finally, Mike drops a massive hot take on why Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is officially a better movie than Thor: Love and Thunder.

    Is Mephisto in Avengers Doomsday? + The REAL Ant Man Hank Pym!

    AWAB! We are back for another massive week in the comic book universe. Right now, it feels like the calm before the storm—and that storm is Avengers: Doomsday. With the MCU dropping massive runtimes for Vision Quest and Avengers Endgame doing huge numbers in its theatrical rerelease, we are gearing up for the next phase. But the biggest question on our minds: Is Mephisto finally pulling the strings? After his appearance in Ironheart, we break down the intense comic history between Doctor Doom and Mephisto, and whether or not the MCU is setting up the ultimate demonic deal for Doomsday and Secret Wars. Then, we are taking the scenic route with a massive deep dive into one of Marvel's most complicated and controversial founders: the REAL Hank Pym. Forget the sweet old man from the movies; we are unpacking the genius, the mental breakdowns, the creation of Ultron, and the dark moments that make Hank Pym one of the most flawed heroes in comic book history. Is he a hero, a villain, or just a guy who couldn't stop getting in his own way?

    How Avengers Endgame Encore Sets Up Doomsday!

    We just got out of the IMAX theater for the Avengers: Endgame Encore, and we need to talk about exactly how those new post-credits scenes are directly setting up Avengers: Doomsday. Is Doctor Doom coming for the Hulk? Did the Avengers' time heist actually create the multiverse incursions? We break down everything you need to know about Doom's master plan and why he might actually see the Avengers as the villains. We’re talking about the shocking Daredevil: Born Again non-renewal and what it means for the MCU's massive pivot to the mutants and the X-Men. Plus, we react to the weird new Vision Quest teaser, the fan backlash over Hal Jordan's fate in the DCU Lanterns series, and the wild rumors that Christopher Nolan is stepping in to direct a Star Wars movie. Later in the show, we hit our character deep dive on the true comic origin of Captain America—proving why Steve Rogers is the most misunderstood hero in comics and how he stands up against corrupt governments. Then, I take one for the team on the Road to Doomsday by rewatching Thor: Love and Thunder so you don't have to (spoiler: it's the absolute worst MCU movie ever made).

    Will Doctor Doom be in Avengers Endgame Encore? + The Craziest Doomsday Theories!

    Is Doctor Doom actually about to crash the Avengers: Endgame Encore release? With Marvel putting Endgame back on premium screens with brand new scenes and an exclusive look ahead, we break down how Marvel Studios is secretly setting up Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars right under our noses. In this episode, we rank the ten craziest Avengers: Doomsday fan theories on a scale of 1 to 10—from Tony Stark’s nanotech snap accidentally creating Doom, to Steve Rogers breaking reality by staying in the past, to the real reason Doctor Strange chose the one winning timeline in Infinity War. Plus, we dive into the latest test screening leaks revealing Doomsday's massive runtime and how it compares to Endgame and Infinity War. Beyond the multiverse madness, we deliver an unfiltered deep dive into Tony Stark’s comic history: Is Iron Man actually a hero, or has he spent decades acting like an egomaniacal villain who built interdimensional gulags and wiped his best friends' minds? We also tackle the massive internet meltdown over the new PS5 Marvel’s Wolverine game, rip into why Spider-Man variants like Spider-Punk shouldn't replace Peter Parker, debate DC’s botched marketing for the Knightfall sequel, breakdown Episode 5 of HBO's Lanterns, and examine the full tactical history of the Batmobile.

    Is Scarlet Witch A Latverian Witch in Avengers Doomsday?

    This week, we are diving deep into the wildest Avengers Doomsday rumors, specifically looking at the Darkhold connection between Victor Von Doom and Wanda Maximoff. Is Scarlet Witch actually going to return as a mind-controlled Latverian Witch? We break down the leaked costume designs and comic history to see if Doom has enslaved the MCU's most powerful magic user to act as his multiversal conduit. Plus, we talk about Spider-Man Brand New Day crushing the box office (and why ticket inflation matters when comparing it to Titanic), the latest X-Men casting leaks for Rogue, Angel, and Beast, and what went wrong with episode four of the DCU Lanterns show. Later, Adrian brings the heat with a Hidden Gem Finally, we pull off the blanket for an epic deep dive into the comic origins of Thor.

    Hulk & Bane! 2 of The Most Misunderstood Characters in ALL Comics!

    Welcome back to Only Comics! This week, Mike and Adrian are taking no days off as we dive deep into the real comic book origins of some of the most misunderstood powerhouses in Marvel and DC. We break down the staggering box office domination of Spider-Man: Brand New Day and prove why superhero fatigue is a total myth. Then, we pivot to DC to review the brutal, R-rated Batman: Knightfall animated movie and explain why this is the definitive version of Bane—not the live-action disappointments we’ve been given before. But the real meat of this episode is our massive deep dive into The Incredible Hulk. We trace Bruce Banner’s tragic origins, his explosive power scaling, and the ultimate betrayal by the Illuminati that led to the legendary Planet Hulk and World War Hulk storylines. Plus, we discuss the canceled Spider-Noir series, the recasting in Amazon's God of War, and why Marvel's Echo completely missed the mark compared to Maya Lopez’s original comic run.

    Marvel’s Official Doomsday Podcast? + Jon Stewart’s Comic Origins!

    Welcome back! This week on Only Comics, Adrian and I have a serious bone to pick with Marvel Studios. We started our road to Avengers Doomsday countdown months ago, and now Marvel drops their own official Doomsday podcast? Imitation is flattery, but they're just copying our concepts and not paying us! We break down this official podcast drama, plus Spider-Man’s record-shattering box office run and the sneaky Endgame encore release. We’re also tackling the slow burn of HBO’s Lanterns series. If you’re frustrated by the pacing and massive changes, wait until you hear the real Jon Stewart comic origin breakdown. We pull apart what the show changed, what they kept, and why the comic version of his origin is way more brutal and compelling. Plus, we’re exposing the dark truth in a massive Charles Xavier deep dive—proving why he might actually be Marvel’s biggest villain. Rounding out the episode, we discuss why Wakanda Forever completely nerfed Namor, break down the real Atlantean mutant's comic history! And A LOT more!!

    The MCU ’Tony Stark’ Doomsday Rumors Need to Stop!

    The Avengers: Doomsday rumors are officially out of control. We’re breaking down David Harbour’s viral out-of-context quote from Doomsday and explaining why the Victor von Doom and Tony Stark fan theories make zero sense. Robert Downey Jr. is back in the MCU, but Doctor Doom is not an Iron Man variant. We dive into how Marvel marketing works, the future of the Multiverse Saga leading into Avengers: Secret Wars, and what the arrival of the X-Men means for the timeline. Plus, we break down the massive premiere numbers for HBO’s Lanterns and debate whether the DCU is finally finding its footing. We also get into the real data behind Marvel canceling Wonder Man Season 2, the wild DC trademark battle that forced Marvel to turn Changeling into Morph for X-Men: The Animated Series, and a massive deep dive into Magneto’s true Omega-level power set—proving why he’s not just a metal manipulator, but a universal force of nature. This and a whole LOT more!!
