Before Moon Knight lands on Disney Plus this March 30th, we resurrect one of our old features here on POPX, "Origin Stories!" In this episode we give you the full back story of Marc Spector, from Earth 616 comic origins of the character, various incarnations throughout the years, and his involvement with the rest of the Marvel Universe. How much of the new limited streaming series will harken back to the comic canon of the character? We will discuss what we know from the trailers, and give you the full run down prior to the show's launch. We also discuss the Stephen Kind adaption of his short story, "The Body," in the 1986 film "Stand By Me" on Retro Rewind.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
