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, in the years since, they have covered all of Netflix’s The Defenders Saga, the first four seasons of ABC’s Agents of SHIELD, and all 14 films in Fox’s X-Verse.
For the last six months they have been in their Marvel Zombie Era, where they put the spotlight on some iconic Marvel superheroes before the MCU had the chance to reinvent them, as the release of The Fantastic Four: First Steps gradually approached. Now, they finally get into all the highs and lows of the latest entry in the Multiverse Saga. Who had a worse day, The Invisible Woman or The Silver Surfer? What happened to Ben Grimm’s arc? Does Pedro work as Reed Richards? And what did they make of the magic CG baby? All that and more will be revealed!
In their opening act, Bill and Alex dive into all the latest production news surrounding Avengers: Doomsday and Spider-Man: Brand New Day. They also unveil their plans for their new season!
Come back next month as they kick off their season, Marvel’s Animated Adventures, with a discussion of M.O.D.O.K. and Hit Monkey Season 1 & 2, available on Hulu and Disney Plus!
