We kick things off with Nathan’s latest camp stories before diving into this week’s hottest comic book releases, including *The Amazing Spider-Man #53*, *Action Comics #1067*, *Transformers #10*, *The Ultimates #2*, *X-Men #1*, and *Daredevil #11*. Sam shares his excitement about the ongoing *Daredevil* series and what makes it a must-read.
Then, we shift our focus to Deadpool's origins, his evolution through the late 90s, and his rise to pop culture prominence with blockbuster film adaptations in the 2010s. We discuss the character’s initial design as a parody of Deathstroke and how his unique blend of humor and action made him a standout. We also talk about our anticipation for the upcoming *Deadpool and Wolverine* movie and the buzz surrounding its early footage.
Whether you’re a longtime Deadpool fan or just curious about what makes this character tick, this episode offers a fun and insightful look at how Deadpool reshaped the comic book landscape. Tune in for a mix of comic book news, engaging discussions, and our usual dose of pop culture analysis.
