Hello and welcome to Bill vs the MCU! Each month your hosts Pop Break’s Podcast Director Alex Marcus and Pop Break Editor in Chief Bill Bodkin take another step into the wider Marvel Multiverse, with reviews and interviews on the film and television series that may be drawn upon as the MCU dives deeper and deeper into its Multiverse Saga.
After completing their twelve month rewatch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Alex and Bill are fully embracing the ethos of the MCU’s Multiverse Saga with miniseries devoted to all the MCU-adjacent material out there. Currently, the pair are taking a guided tour of the Netflix Defenders-verse, featuring reviews of select seasons of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage, along with this universe’s crossover event The Defenders.
This month, Alex and Bill travel back to March 2016 to check back in with our friend at Nelson and Murdoch and discuss Season Two of Daredevil.
They are also joined by former Marvel Comics Writer & Editor Dan “D.G.” Chichester, who spent most of the ’90s writing the ongoing Daredevil title including such acclaimed arcs as The Fall of The Kingpin and Fall From Grace, to discuss his history with Daredevil, what he’d like to see in upcoming The MCU series, his thoughts on the politicization of the punisher by the far right, and what the Netflix shows get right (and wrong) in their adaptations of The Punisher and Elektra.
Alex and Bill also unveil the new edition of their monthly segment Miss Minutes Marvel Memo, where they try to cram in a month’s of MCU headlines in five minutes!

Don’t forget to come back next month when we’ll be reviewing Luke Cage S1.
