Ok, I got a little testy last week about 1967 Pt. 2. I hated it, but we did hear that some club members thought it was pretty good. And that's awesome! If we're being cranky about a comic you enjoyed, let us know. Our opinions are just that: opinions. And you know what they say about opinions... they're like butts: everyone's got one and you should share them with us! Specifically at mymarvelousyear@gmail.com!
This week's show goes a little all over the place: we talk about spoiler culture (no spoilers, though!), missing Steve Ditko, whether we've given Submariner his due, and Dave comes up with the most absurd, long-winded story for a new MMY villain.
This week's episode is Marvel Year Six: 1967 Variant Cover, due out tomorrow 4/29/19. Please get any 1968 feedback for us to discuss on our next Variant Cover episode by 5/14/19. You can send it to mymarvelousyear@gmail.com
