Fun Show
A really fun show with good hosts. Lot of fun information and comic book knowledge thrown about. Awesome companion to reading the Marvel Universe.
One of my favorites
I look forward to this podcast. I’ve been reading every Marvel Comic in chronological order and I love hearing Matt and Steve’s insight on all the early Marvel Comics. Great companion if you follow along.
Great sidekick for your Marvel unlimited subscription
Love listening to this podcast as I read the comics discussed on my Marvel Unlimited subscription. These guys know their Marvel and share their knowledge in fun and interesting ways. Hope they can keep it up until they reach the 90’s Marvel comics which are my personal favorites. Thanks guys!
