2 Man Comic Book Club

In the second of todays double drops, we introduce you to Riri Williams, also known as Iron Heart. This exciting character began her life in Marvel History by reverse engineering the Iron Man suit and eventually went on to be a part of The Champions. This series picks up a little bit after her last fight while a member of The Champions. She is balancing her time between MIT and Chicago, and throughout all of this, someone is interested in her. Or more specifically, some thing ... The Ten Rings. This is an awesome series and we really hope you'll check it out! Creative Credit Writer: Eve L.

Today we're dropping 2 episodes (to make up for missing a week of black characters and creators for Black History Month). Our first drop is "Far Sector", which drops a brand new Green Lantern out in the far reaches of the universe to look into the first murder in hundreds of years. This series is a 12 issue arc, but we'll only be covering the first half in depth, hoping that you will choose to pick up a copy for yourself and read this great addition to DC's lineup. Jo (Sojourner) Mullein came from earth, where she went from Princeton to the military to the police force before she ended up on "The City Enduring" as a member of the Green Lantern Corps. She brings a very unique perspective to the pages of DC Comics, through the words of N.K. Jemisin and the art of Jamal Campbell, who you may remember from our coverage of "Naomi" a while back. This is a great story that really challenges you to think more than your average superhero story. We hope

Between car trouble and hectic schedules we weren't able to meet to record a normal episode this week. But we were able to record a few solo things that we wanted to share. So on today's episode, Alex starts with an intro into a "Discord Exclusive" offering of a Marvel: Civil War Read Along. Listen to what Alex has to say and then join the Discord to participate!  Discord!   https://discord.gg/mbMw2mxtUu After that, Drew presents an episode (20 minutes)of a new podcast idea he and Torrance have been planning for a long time. It's a fiction podcast, so if you like that sort of thing make sure to keep listening once Alex is done talking about the Civil War read along. This story is about a guy who's stuck in a basement and doesn't know why. He finds a tape recorder stashed behind a bookshelf and starts to chronicle the experience in hopes of being rescued one day.  If you enjoy the story, please join the Discord and let us know what you think.

 In today's episode, the first of our Black History Celebration, we cover the beginning of the 2016 Black Panther run, and also a quick synopsis of the beginning fo the 2018 story as well. (Haha, we had a bit of a mixup due to the similarities of the cover art for the two runs.) This series is a bit different than many of the series we cover. There isn't as much superhero fighting. Instead there's a lot of different groups fighting for their views of what Wakanda needs most.

So here at the 2 Man Comic Book Club, we've released 100+ podcasts about comic books, superheroes, space fights, superpowers, tv shows, and time travel. I still can't believe it! As I've worked my way through more and more comics, I've started wondering how they all stack up.  What follows is by no means a detailed examination of each comic where I weigh their merits against each other. It's exactly what the title claims... a Gut Reaction Ranking . All I did to make this list was start with the first comic we covered on the show "X:Men - The Worst X-Man Ever" and put it at the top of the list. I moved onto the next one, "Superman: Secret Identity" and put it beneath Worst X-Man, because I liked the X-Men story more. (Can you believe that? Coming from me? A self proclaimed Superman fanboy for life!!??)  I then worked through the rest of the stories we covered on the show, comparing it to the list as it stood and placing the new story where I felt

 I can't believe we made it! 100 Episodes! (Well technically, we hit 100 a few episodes back, but early on we had a few mini-sodes that I didn't number, so it messed our numbering up, and for whatever reason, our "channel trailer" episode counts as #1 even though we considered it #0, so if you've been listening on Apple Podcasts, the number we've given episodes has never matched the A.P.#...Well, we're gonna rectify that starting with next episode, shifting to "Legacy Numbering" Anyway, on today's episode, we'll break down our ratings/rankings of Phase 1 of the MCU with the score sheet Alex devised for us. Have you been watching and ranking along with us? Then we'll check in on the questions we asked each other on the first few episodes, and then the 50th. "Host Favorites", and many of our answers have changed over the years. And finally, one of our loyal listeners asked us to see how quick we could name 100 heroes and villa
