Date 86 - Make Mine Marvel Monsters
Manage episode 436757200 series 2784426
Welcome TRUE BELIEVERS to this episode of Monster Crush. With all the news these days coming from Marvel Comics we thought we’d jump on that bandwagon and ride some superheroic coattails (cape-tails?). So this week enjoy some familiar Marvel names that were originally attributed to some less than familiar monsters. These Silver Age singletons were pulled straight from the pages of Marvel Comics thanks in major part to the book The A - Z of Marvel Monsters! EXCELSIOR! Featuring: The original Groot, The original Hulk (Xemnu), and Thorr!
Featuring: What superhero would make the best cryptid? - Spooky News! Including: Bigfoot sanctuaries, don’t roundhouse kick ghost performers, Cali UFO flap, and Ghost Hunter assassinations?! - LD’s Randy Quaid encounter (tease) - Groot language elective credits - first step to ruling the world: get a TV show - space travel in the Marvel Universe is really bad - the confidence of a small town electrician - don’t throw dynamite into a volcano - AND MORE!
CW: Implied superhero death and implied torture (5:50 - 6:20), legal issues involving assault (10:00 - 15:46), news about people experiencing paranoia (20:30 - 24:30), Silver Age comic book monsters with a focus on domination/comic violence/mind control/implied genocide (throughout)
