ABOUT THE EPISODE
Podcasters Matt and Lauren from Hops “GEEK” News joins Sean to review Marvel Comics’ Secret Wars, published from 2015 - 2016 and was created by Jonathan Hickman (writer), Esad Ribic (artist), Ive Svorcina (colorist), and Chris Eliopoulos (letterer), and cover art by Alex Ross. They discuss their key 3 moments from the series that range from comedic moments to WTF was that, and how little they actually knew about what was happening with characters and Marvel stories during this event.
They also touch on Matt’s culture shock when he moved from Boston to Idaho, Lauren’s experience with Disney breweries in Orlando, what they hope to see in the MCU version of Secret Wars, and what comic books they and the listeners of the show are reading.
Lauren also snuck in a secret mug during the recording to annoy Sean - watch the YouTube version of the episode to find out what that was!
