Marvel New Universe Comics Podcast

Star Brand, Spitfire and the Troubleshooters, Nightmask, PSI Force, Kickers Inc, Mark Hazzard Merc, Justice, DP7. We know them, we ranked them and anything left that we didn't say in the over 100 episodes we've got covered here!

Still more New Universe to talk about! Here we talk through issues 26-32 of DP7, Star Brand issues 17, 18, 19 and the War miniseries. We give our final thoughts on those series, plus talking about the last run of backup issues.

Well, if you've been listening for a while you now how much we loved those PSI Force Leather jackets that appeared in an imaginary flashback panel and in a way they perfectly represent both of these series'. Bitter disappointment! ...no not really but maybe some unrealized promise. Lets talk about it! Fourth quarter grades are in! What will Justice and PSI Force earn?

That's all folks, but be sure to stick around for just one or two more episides recapping season 5 and our final thoughts on the whole New Universe.

Last issue ended with the missiles being launched and total nuclear annihilation...so lets not spoil this one I guess!

Ok, so not really a lot of actual War next issue, but at least this time the paranormal squad and their leader Kathi Blizzard will actually be on location. The plot unfolds, the showers are steamy and the cruise missiles are warming up. Better not miss this one!!

Global conflict started with the PITT and Rodstvow vs PSI Hawk. The Draft created a squad of paranormal army troops and now they finally get to go on a mission. Will they prevent WW3 or accidentally start it? Will it break the tradition of the bookshelf format New U books being really boring? We'll find out!!!

Showdown at Coney Island, in what feels like a description for a Jack Kirby comic Judge Mental and his band of paranormals face off against Justice, Captain Brooklyn and the ferris wheel ride of doom! How will Tensen's story end? Lets find out.

Love, paranormals, happy endings and sad farewells. This is the last story of Dave Landers, Merriam Sorrensen, Randy O'Brien, Dennis Cuzinski, Charley Beck, Stephanie Harrington and Jenny Swensen. Grab some snacks and a comfortable chair, it's going to be a long one!

Here it is, the last issue of PSI Force that we will likely ever get. What's left of the team of psychic kids is now working for the Medusa Web and on a mission to Afghanistan. We've got lots of surprises in this issue including an unexpected crossover with a character from one of the early cancelled books, a new team member and even a letters page??? Anyway its time to send PSI Force off into the...

You know when reality shows finish a season and then they have a reunion episode at the end where the people that screwed each other over over the course of the season get to face each other? This is a lot like the Star Brand version of that. A definitive end to Star Brand for sure, and be sure to stick around til the end for DJ Roger's bad dance grooves.

Under The Boardwalk! The NSC vacation to Coney Island didn't go so well after Miriam "Playback" Morse got captured, and it continues to not go so well. In this Issue we finally get to meet the guy who sent Quill after Tensen a few issues ago, along with a host of new paranormal weirdos!

Scuzz returns!!! That ought to be enough to get you excited, right? Well, it gets even better. We've got relationship drama. A cult. A gang of freaky torture punks and some new paranormals!

While it all began with Wayne, Kathy, Stasi, Tyrone and Michael we have come a long way since then. Only Wayne and Kathy from the original team are still together, and even their days as a team might be numbered? In this issue, PSI Force is slumming it with the Medusa Web for a bit, maybe knocking off the Annoying Potiphar before they move to their next mission...which might also be their last!!!...

The real conclusion to the Siberian project Crossover with Justice happens here, plus a bonus Jim Lee inked backup story?

It's Christmas 1988, and single mom Stephanie Harrington is stuck in a seemingly dead end job working as a maid in a high class hotel in Manhattan. That is until she meets a handsome politician who is looking to make a name for himself by gentrifying a run down Skeevo-led neighborhood. Or maybe I'm mixing this up with a movie I just watched? Lots of new paranormals in this one, DP7 style!

This is it, the final puzzle. Only a select few special readers can read through this entire issue and figure out which short-haired blonde in a winter coat is Johnny and which is Lindsey! Grab a copy, read along and let's figure it out together...if we can! Also: Rodstvow dies or kills everyone or something.

Ok, so the real title is Target White House, but it does have a healthy dose of Wilfred Brimley in it (or Jake Burnley). We've got DP7, a Ken Connell sighting and President Voight! Could this be the first Nukin' issue of Byrne's Star Brand according to our lovely podcasters?

Justice finally heads to Sibera to either free or fry PSI Force, though Rodstvow might have something to say about all of this. Plus a back up story where we peek into the mind of the President-Elect, Voight!!!

Our 6 paranormals are hanging out in NYC working on their makeup skills when...an assassin strikes! Plus some vintage pornography and a letters page? What more could you want!

The battle for the freedom of PSI Force wages on, and this time Justice enters the fray! But is he here to help? Which character won't make it out alive? (don't look at the cover if you don't want spoilers).

Is it still a crossover if the crossover characters never show up in it? Well, as a follow up to the deathly revelation about Tensen's daughter Angie's powers, we get...lots of people standing around talking! Can your daring podcasters put together an entertaining podcast when the issue is terrible? Let's find out!

Grab a Chip Ahoy, Gas up the car at Sunoco and snuggle up in the warm embrace of the blankets in your Best Western hotel room, it's time for a podcast! Just in time for election season we've got another amazing issue of DP7 to talk about with some excellent paranormal action.

Can you Smeeeellllllll....what Nicieza...is COOKING? A multi part epic crossover is what he's cooking! So what if it's a little weak. We'll make a podcast about it and rock along! Plus something resembling a backup story!

Special ultra spectacular 100th episode of our podcast episode that is also spectacular! The Star Brand 17. Last we left this comic, Wilford Brimley was all powered up with Star Brand and ready to fix the world. We'll see if he can do it before Mac Browning decides that he's a dangerous civilian or that wet blanket Witness guy spoils things.
