Matt and Pat are depriving themselves of sleep so that they can bring you a marathon episode of TEN ISSUES of THE CHAMPIONS in a row! It's gonna be a wild ride, as we catch up with former and future X-Men Angel and Iceman in Los Angeles.
New Russian teacher Black Widow, guest lecturer Hercules, delivery boy Ghost Rider, and students Angel and Iceman all meet up on the campus of UCLA and the absurdity just continues from there. Strap in and get yourself a pizza because this is gonna get weird.
Topics discussed:
JENNY ISABELLA! Dadfriend. Questionable mythology (in the book, and from the podcast). WHY ARE THEY ALL THERE? A trustworthy cadre of devils. Huntsman is maybe the worst character we've ever met. The Warren Commission. Making a deal with the Devil sucks. Diva Ghost Rider. An Instrument of Peace. There's gonna be a murder in Malibu! "Friend...?" Whoops, Warren's parents are dead. Everybody is Charles Bronson. Iceman's big pouty lips. You can't push lawyers. An AI summary of Spider-Man's core value. ICEMAN COMETH COUNT: 4. Vince Colletta inking over backgrounds. Bullying someone into hiring a lawyer. DARKSTAR! Angel gets his gas bombs back! Three people spying on the Champions all at once. "The Heroes for the Common Man." Ripping out a wall to chase a child. The TITANIUM man? BOB HALL. He survives but he explodes to death. Ghost Rider would make a terrible EMT. A device that tracks pearls that look like each other. "Lenin's Comrade, comrade!" Dick Fenster: Boy Public Relations Man. Black Widow pulls a Ferris Beuller. THE SPOILERS! How is Johnny Blaze's identity secret!?? Darkstar has every power. The Champions abandon a plane in midair.
