BOOMERANG, SCORPION, TARANTULA, TOMBSTONE
We've got an incoming MCU film on the horizon so Colin and Nick are taking a look at the villains of SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY and asking the important questions:- what is Scorpion's tail supposed to be? Why does Boomerang's original suit not have any boomerangs on it? And is Tarantula's power just having really really pointy shoes?
(NB - We'll be taking a little break over Easter and will be back in April with new episodes!)

BATROC, WHIRLWIND, LIVING LASER, ZARAN, MACHETE
Bonjour, mes amis! Join your jovial hosts Colin and Nick as they take a look at one of the few Marvel characters who has his own brigade - yes, it's the probably racially-insensitively named Batroc The Leaper (a man skilled in the noble French art of feet boxing). Who are the rest of his brigade? Are they supervillains to be taken seriously? And are any of them actually any good? These questions and fewer might be answered in this week's episode....

It's a slightly different episode this week as Nick goes solo to take a little sidestep away from the list to look at the Transformers and ask the question we've all been asking:- are the Transformers part of the Marvel universe? (Normal list-based service will resume next week...)

BATTERING RAM, ANARCHIST, ORPHAN, BLOKE, DOOP, DEAD GIRL, U GO GIRL, LA NUIT, VIVISECTOR, VENUS DEE MILO
It's a frankly ridiculous number of marvellously media-savvy (if mortally-challenged) mutants this week as Colin and Nick take a look at X-Statix. Who were the X-Statix? Did anyone make it through the revolving door of death? Was Princess Diana really on the team? And what is Doop saying? Some of these questions may be answered...

Colin and Nick are back to answer that age old question:- "How many Buckys is too many Buckys?" as they take a look at the inexplicably high number of people who have decided to take on the mantle of child sidekick. We're talking Nomad (Jack Monroe), Nomad (Rikki Barnes), Battlestar (surprisingly not Nomad) and Sharon Carter (sister-niece of Peggy). Reckless endangerment ahoy!

WONDER MAN, GRIM REAPER, DOORMAN
Look, up in the sky... oh no, hang on, that's someone else. Join Colin and Nick as they take a look at a hero neither of them has paid much attention to before, Simon Williams AKA Wonder Man as they ask the question:- is it worth bothering with the comics or should you just watch the excellent series instead (what do you mean, "leading question"?) Also they take a look at his brother, the Grim Reaper and Doorman (who is generally unrelated to Wonder Man with the exception of the series). Enjoy!

Bastion, Sentinels, Master Mold, Bolivar Trask
Look out, the machines are taking over! In what feels like a very timely episode, Colin and Nick take a look at the man-made machines menacing the mutants of the Marvel universe (yeah, maybe all this Stan and Jack has been rubbing off on us, alliteratively speaking). Are the Sentinels a terrifying look at the future of robotics or another 60s misunderstanding of how robots work? Is it OK to just do the Iron Giant but with a sentinel? What is a Siege Perilous? And does Bastion's origin make any sense at all? Listen and find out!

Bart Rozum, Wrecker, Thunderball, Piledriver, Bulldozer
Let's get wrecked! This week, Colin and Nick are taking a look at Damage Control and the Wrecking Crew as next on the list is Bart Rozum (no, us neither). It's thumping, smashing, head-butting frenzy of destruction (and mildly incompetent clean-up)

KRAVEN THE HUNTER, CALYPSO, RHINO, CHAMELEON
Colin and Nick are joined by returning and (hopefully) recurring pal James O'Donoghue to take a look at Spidey's animal-tracking foe, Kraven The Hunter. It's also a chance to (mercifully) finish off our look at the SPUMC movies with a bit of chat about Kraven's inexplicable movie. Plus, given that they also feature in the film, we'll dive into Rhino, Chameleon and Calypso too.

BARON STRUCKER, VIPER, BOB AND GORGON
Join Colin and Nick as they take a look at a fascist organisation hellbent on world domination (yes, maybe a bit on the nose in early 2026). They take a look at Baron Strucker (baldy fascist), Viper (sexy fascist), Gorgon (stabby fascist) and Bob (in-it-for-the-healthcare fascist). Cut off the head and two shall grow! (Disclaimer - please don't cut off Colin and Nick's heads; they only have the one each)

Colin and Nick are still taking a little post-festive break so, to tide you over in the meantime, here's a little taster of some of the bonus content that we're putting out on the Patreon in a frankly shameless attempt to encourage new subscribers (boo, capitalism!). We talk a little bit about the Zombie, Simon Garth, and the Marvel universe's version of Frankenstein's Monster (both covered way back in Season 1 episode 19, fact fans!)
Enjoy and we'll be back with full episodes from next week!

OMEGA THE UNKNOWN AND DOCTOR BONG!
For no real reason Colin and Nick discuss the work of late Steve Gerber, creator of the much beloved 70s comedy comic character Howard the Duck. But is he actually funny?? Or is it just a bit weird and depressing? Finally we disagree on something. Sparks fly and things get pretty bloody heated! That said we both adore Doctor Bong and are deeply confused by Omega the Unknown
