Screw It, We're Just Gonna Talk About Spider-man

Within the forgettable Millenium event there is born a character both idiotic and unforgettable. G’nort arrives! And the JLI creative team gets to write Superman, Hawkman, Hawkwoman and more Green Lanterns then any story needs. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Rocket Red, who has been a member of the JLI for one whole issue -- is a TRAITOR! Only a crossover as forgettable as "Millenium" could produce a betrayal of such low stakes! Still, the issue is pretty good! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

The first almost all-fun-character, no-action JLI issue as the league moves into several embassies around the globe. We've got the first "bwa-ha-ha" laugh, which would become iconic for this series, and the establishment that the Martian Manhunter loves Oreos. Kevin and Will give it an A+. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

The Justice League becomes Justice League International! First Dr. Fate gets rid of the most powerful villain of the series in one panel. Also, Kevin and Will discuss how it's weird that it's interesting when an ensemble comic spends several pages discussing lineup changes. And RIP Richard Sala - unrelated to JLI but a great comics creator that Kevin has admired for years. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

The Justice League team attempts to fight the mystical Gray Man with the help (or hinderance) of the Creeper. Captain Marvel fights J'onn Jonzz, Black Canary reluctantly gets saved, and a casually dressed Hal Jordan visits Maxwell Lord. Then in the end Dr Fate handles the situation. Plus we answer some emails and take too long deciding who should be on our Justice League line up. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

The mysterious Grey Man is finally revealed! He's a dude who is a bad guy. Also The Creeper shows up. And Batman and Guy Gardner have their most iconic moment they will ever have. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Booster Gold joins the Justice League. He earns his place by fighting some adults who dress up as playing cards the same way most people get jobs. Plus Maxwell Lord annoys Batman and Blue Beetle unplugs something. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

More nukes, more commies, plus two Star Trek Jokes. JLI is already in fine form, very early in its series run. Kevin and Will love that Mister Miracle was willing to sacrifice his life for the cause, and we also love his flying discs!

It's not a 1980s superhero book without the THREAT OF NUCELAR WAR looming closely overhead. Will and Kevin get into the issue where the Justice League start messing around with nukes. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Issue one features the new Justice League in all of its not-that-much-glory. We've got: alt-right Green Lanterns! An "Oh Gosh" Captain Marvel! A serious-as-heck Batman. And a cigar-chomping entertainment booker-style Oberon! Let the new era begin! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

We begin our look at the 1980s hit JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL. Originally simply JUSTICE LEAGUE, this was an incarnation of DC's super team that featured lots of ... not exactly A-list superheroes. Oberon, anyone? Doctor Light? Blue Beetle? Third most important Green Lantern Guy Gardner? We got 'em! But this series worked and the brothers Hines loved it and here we are. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

We take a break from the Incredible Hulk to take a deep dive on BATMAN. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Finally: Banner changes into Hulk when he gets angry! Or at least stressed. We go over the first two Ditko Hulk stories under the "Tales to Astonish" banner. And that's the end of our coverage of The Incredible Hulk! For now! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

The Metal Master is a villain so powerful, so fascinating -- that we're pretty sure he's never heard from again after this issue. But we have art from Steve Ditko! Actual feelings expressed by Dr. Banner! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

This issue includes: secret underground civilization, sub-human worker race, the fountain of youth, spider-leg-cars, gladiator battles, and a sub-nuclear weapon -- and that's only up until page 11. The Hulk keeps getting crazier and the Hines brothers love it! Plus, the Hulk exercises. -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Lots more of the Hulk flying-not-flying, Rick being a scientific genius, a new set of rules for Banner turning into the Hulk, lotsa gamma rays, a few rampages, a few torn-up houses and a space gladiator wearing shorts! YOU make a comic that does all that in 22 pages! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Truly one of the most bonkers stories Will and Kevin have ever read. Hulk flies, but doesn't, gets mind controlled, gets trapped in space for the third time in three issues, rampages several times, and probably murders the most active circus of all time -- in 22 pages! YES HULK YES! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

We follow up last issue's sci-fi commnuist spy plot with... TOAD MEN! An alien race arrives with insane magnetic power to take over the Earth, that is... until the Hulk.... beats them up! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Kevin and Will go over The Incredible Hulk issue #1. We've got G-bomb tests, cranky generals, rebellious teenagers, dangerous commies, a human gargoyle and.... The Hulk! 22 pages, five chapters, all crammed with Jack Kirby and Stan Lee's ideas. We say: fun! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify

Your introduction to all things Hulk! Kevin and Will give an overview of how the Hulk comic book was created, canceled, brought back, and then seen to become one of Marvel Comics most popular characters! We briefly discuss some of the major Hulk eras, and the Hulk movies, and Will forces in a smarty pants reference to Mary Shelly's Frankenstein! -- SHOW INFORMATION Twitter: @ScrewItComics Instagram: @ScrewItComics Email: ScrewItSpidey@gmail.com Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Subscribe: Spotify
