Marveling at Marvel's Marvels

Entertainment News, Hobbies, Leisure, News

Each week, Allen, Josef, and Jonathan discuss a comic book character (or team). Jonathan, a lifelong Marvel devotee, presents the character, their powers, and their history. Josef, who's only ever read one comic book and is significantly more grounded in reality, calls bull. And Allen, level headed voice of reason, mediates the mess.

    Everybody loves Venom, right? What if we made Venom more extreme and made out of blood? We can make him even more extreme with a name like "Carnage". And give him an extreme, edgy catchphrase, like "Carnage Rules!" Gold, solid gold. Send it to press.
