Mixed Marvel Arts Weekly Web-Up

Our first revamped Mixed Marvel Arts Weekly Web-Up (which Shaun will inevitably still try to claim as the Martinews), couldn’t have started at a better time. This past week was chock full of movie and television news, highlighted by the first official set photos of Ant-Man. The Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to expand with casting announcements for the second season of…

AFCBL: Final June Scores, Weeks 18-21

Shaun continues his dominance over the Fantasy League by shattering the record for the monthly team point total for the second straight month. His team was fueled by Iron Man’s personal record-setting month, and the combo of the Original Sin best buddies, Dr. Strange (Offensive Spell, Defensive Spell, Teleport) and the Punisher (Gun Barrage, Explosives, Planned Attack). After being denied…

Cyclops and the rest of the Marvel Heroes

Cyclops stood rigidly; staring down an army of A.I.M. soldiers through the red haze in which he saw all things. The A.I.M. beam gunners and lumbering crushbots advanced slowly on the mutant leader. A group of students cowered behind Scott Summers, headmaster of Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters, as he alone faced down the intruders.…

Episode 35 – Days of Future Past: Behind the X

The Mixed Marvel Arts Podcast is joined again by Nate, as he returns to guide Brian and Shaun through Fox’s latest entry into the studio’s long and storied X-Men franchise. Before the shoddy, improptu, role play review of the movie, the trio catch up on what television series they have been watching, including Orange is…

Episode 34 – Ant-Sized Speculation

The Mixed Marvel Arts Podcast tallies up the latest scores for the Amazing Fantasy Comic Book League. Shaun weasels out another victory with some questionable points and Brian is displeased with the results once again. In addition to the coverage of May comics, the duo also discusses the casting of Netflix’s Matt Murdock/Daredevil, and disagree…

AFCBL: Final May Scores, Weeks 14-17

Well my victory celebration was cut short by another dramatic loss to Shaun in May. Our teams shattered point totals for the month, thanks in large part to big Avengers appearances and the launch of Original Sin, but my 54-point tally falls short of Shaun’s epic 56-point month. I renamed my team and finally took a chance…

Episode 33 – Spider-Man and the Obnoxious Parker Bloodline

The Mixed Marvel Arts Podcast expresses their displeasure with recent obnoxious outcomes and experiences. But it’s not all bad things as the duo dissects Spider-Man’s recent adventure in Sony’s sequel film. Topics range from the gorgeous web-spinning scenes, to the obnoxiously-confusing, Parker-family storyline. Before the twosome discusses the movie, they also touch on television news…

AFCBL: Final April Scores, Weeks 9-13

You guys, I finally won a month! And not just because April had a fifth and extra week, I even won after four weeks, and it’s about time. To help me in my most triumphant victory I enlisted Nova (powers: Energy Blast, Flight, Helmet Assist); let go of my two X-Women in favor of their newly-returned teammate, Nightcrawler (Supportive and…

Episode 32 – The Winter Soldier is Coming

The Mixed Marvel Arts Podcast hails Captain America’s triumphant return to theaters, dramatically altering the landscape of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Brian is especially taken by the movie’s portrayal of Washington, DC, while Shaun is too stressed out by school exams to appreciate the city’s beauty. In addition to their coverage of the movie and college professors,…
