Hello and welcome to Bill vs the MCU! Each month your hosts Pop Break Podcasting Director Alex Marcus and Pop Break Editor in Chief Bill Bodkin are taking another step into the wider Marvel Multiverse as the MCU dives deeper into their Multiverse Saga.
Bill & Alex spent all of 2022 rewatching the first four phases of the MCU, and they just spent 2023 covering the first phase of Netflix’s The Defenders Saga and the first four seasons of ABC’s Agents of SHIELD. This season, they spent the last six months journeying into Fox’s X-Verse with their X-Treme X-Watch. They watched everything from the original trilogy to New Mutants and everything in between. And now it is finally time to hear what they had to say about the Mutants’ MCU debut in Deadpool and Wolverine.
Listen along as Bill & Alex breakdown all the in-jokes, cameos, set pieces, and MCU connective tissue in this record-breaking film. Find out if the guys felt like the film had the right balance of heart, humor, and spectacle to justify the return of Hugh Jackman and the Deadpool-ification of the MCU. They also include a detailed rundown of their X-Verse rankings.
Don’t forget to check out our bonus episode on the Robert Downey Jr. news from SDCC.
Watch along with us! Next month’s title is Luke Cage Season 2 (available to stream on Disney+).
