We had such high hopes for Moon Knight....and Falcon and the Winter Soldier.... and Wanda Vision.... and all the other Disney Plus Marvel shows, but they keep seeming to fall short of expectations. We as a community come up with complex theories of tie-ins to other movies and other franchises, and discuss what's next week after week, but in the end there's just a big CGI battle and the show's over without leaving us satisfied. We review Moon Knight and discuss why it, and so many other Marvel shows seem to trip at the finish line. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

There's a growing trend in comic books of publishers trying creating new superheroes or changing existing heroes to appeal to a wider audience. There's also a trend amongst comic fans of complaining about that. We take a look at how "woke culture" is influencing comic books and whether this is actually a good thing or simply virtue signaling by the folks at Marvel and DC. We also try and figure out why so many comic fans are outraged over these new books. Are they just a bunch of small minded bigots, or do they actually have a point? Well we decided to take a crack at this sensitive subject, and we're sure the internet will hear us out before they start leaving negative comments. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices.
