We are now fully into Marvel’s Legacy initiative to step back from years of event overload and senseless character deaths, and to reintroduce simpler, more classic versions of the character back into the monthly issues. And as we glory in the reintroduction of series’ original numbering, and the inclusion of classic Stan Lee / Funky Flashman-esque Mighty Marvel Marching Society hype into each issue, we also wonder: where the hell are the simpler, classic versions of the characters?
In that vein, we talk about:
- Invincible Iron Man #593, written by Brian Michael Bendis with art by Stefano Caselli and Alex Maleev, and
- The Mighty Thor #700, written by Jason Aaron with art by almost everyone.
But Marvel is not the only one reintroducing older characters, so we also discuss:
- The WildStorm #8, written by Warren Ellis with art by Jon Davis-Hunt, and
- Mage: The Hero Denied #3, written and drawn by Matt Wagner!
This episode was recorded live to tape, meaning that you will learn the reasons why we would treat Marvel Legacy: Starfox in the way we would 80s VHS porn!
