Description

This is a rerelease of Ryan and Justin's two-part look at legendarily bizarre 1980s Marvel mega-crossover Secret Wars II, now combined and condensed into a single episode for your convenience.

Find out what happens when Jim Shooter trades crowd-pleasing, sprawling battles between their most popular characters for wacky fish-out-of-water hijinks, thinly veiled attacks on former employees, and gentle satire of '80s consumer culture!

In this episode:

• The Thing's erotic adventures
• Spidey's power and responsibility motto apparently has its limits
• Organized crime seems pretty awesome
• The Beyonder's assessment of the Dazzler makes your hosts question his all-knowingness.
• Justin accidentally pitches a DC crossover event
• Molecule Man's DIY psychotherapy
• Daredevil gets left out of yet another Marvel storyline
• Captain America defends your right to die in a tidal wave

Covered in this episode: Secret Wars II #1-7 (1985-1986)
