- Intro
- Background

- I Am Iron Man (18:55)
- Very cool conceit for the series - how much research did you do, and why did you pick the eras/stories that you chose?
- Damn you for making me cry with #3 right after laughing my ass off at Mojo
- DEXTER'S LAB REFERENCE IN #4 YOU ARE AMAZING
- Akogun: Brutalizer of Gods (28:02)
- One of the most badass titles I've ever heard in my life

- Storm (34:24)
- How much of the recent X-stuff do you have to know about to pick this one up?
- Ororo is such a complex character - how do you decide knowing which parts of her to focus on?
- Favorite trait of hers? Favorite character flaw? (40:00)

- One of the most iconic & fashionable characters in Marvel - how much effort is/was put into discussions & designs of her wardrobe?
- How far out in advance do you have stories mapped?
- Fan questions (57:29)
- Antoine Dodson, @worldofantoine, asks: Since they are working to heighten Storm's profile in the larger marvel universe again, could we see any crossover stories or events centering around Storm in the future?
- @butterflykyss asked: Ororo is slated in this run to be earth's protector which is pretty awesome. However, Gaia, I would presume, believes that title is more appropriate in describing her. Any chance the two will cross paths?
- Sorcerer Supreme, @mysticalme337, asks: Admittedly I've asked Mr. Ayodele this before, but if he had to have Ororo team up with Doc Strange, what dynamic would he have for them?
- Kimmi, @SeleneGallio616, asks: What has been the best part in imaging what Ororo's story after Krakoa would be? And what has been the biggest inspiration for her fashion sense?
- Ororo Munroe, @Storm54737952, asks: In relation to this image, can we associate that this spear is made of Light... not a simple light, but rather a light linked to the House of Ideas, the divine light, the Light of TOAA? after all, she will face Oblivion!
- Jug, @jugtbwjwsu, asks: Is there gonna be any chances of Storm seeing her Grandparents again?
- Sky Breaker, @dsolomon83, asks: Any armoring in the new suit? Bulletproofing, knife proofing, laser proofing etc.
- Anything else in the fire?
- Ending
