In celebration of our milestone 150th episode, Searnold and Zach decided to go back to their favorite hobby: forgetting how long it takes to get through lists with hundreds of items. To that end, Searnold is breaking down the entire history of the X-Men (and Marvel Mutants in general) with an ordered list of the 150 most important mutants (depending on how you define “important”) for this special episode. Specifically, THIS episode contains Mutants #1-50, with more coming over the next few episodes. Enjoy!
Nothing tastes quite like human flesh (except, apparently, chicken.) In this episode, Zach and Searnold discuss fictional cannibals and all the many forms they take in movies, comics, and video games. From Wendigos to Zombies, Cyberpunk 2077 to Red Dead Redemption, Soylent Green to Cannibal Holocaust, come along on this (fun?) (educational?) (adjectiveless?) discussion of fiction’s most horrific trope.
On this week’s episode of The Doombots Marvel Podcast, we’re taking a look at writer Ryan North’s fantastic “One World Under Doom” arc, and how Doctor Doom used magic, science, political science, a T-rex, propaganda, and genuine altruism to unite the Earth in peace and happiness (under his rule, of course). But the worlds super “heroes” couldn’t fathom a world where they weren’t needed, so they sought to bring Doom down and destroy utopia. Find out why, how, and Doom’s unexpected (cosmically significant) fate!
Speaking about the Whizzer in episode 145 reminded Zach and Searnold that there are plenty of other weird characters from Marvel’s version of the 1940’s that need discussing. In this episode, we’ll focus on 12 of them, specifically THE twelve. Is the Phantom Reporter a reporter who reports on ghosts, or a ghost who is a reporter? Does Claire Voyant need a different name besides Black Widow? Would humans be perfect if we didn’t have genitals? All this and more in today’s episode of the Doombots Marvel Podcast!
Zach and Searnold watched the first two episodes of Marvel’s new Wonder Man show and will give you their (mostly) spoiler-free review. They also talk about Wonder Man’s greatest hits in the comics, which (mostly) consists of him dying and coming back to life. They’ll discuss his failed acting career and the Crazy 8’s, the insane supporting cast from his 1990’s solo series. There’s also some discussion of Devil-Slayer, but neither Zach nor Searnold really understood what’s going on with that guy.
The Whizzer is a Marvel speedster from the 1940’s. And his origin is one of the craziest stories ever told in any medium. In this episode, the Doombots do a panel-by-panel analysis of the Whizzer’s origin as originally published in U.S.A. Comics #1. They’ll discuss all the retcons that have come since, and wonder why everyone doesn’t just inject themselves with mongoose blood. All this, plus Disney’s Gargoyles are now 616 canon? Don’t miss what is sure to be your new favorite episode of the Doombots Marvel Podcast!
It’s that time of the year again (by which we mean the very, very beginning of it), when Searnold and Zach get super competitive and start asking the big questions in a trivia showdown for the ages. That’s right, we’re back at it and starting 2026 off right, with yet another Doombots Pod Jerk-Off (because we’re facinng OFF and being JERKS with how difficult our questions are, don’t be weird about it).
Searnold has mysteriously vanished. Without him, Zach is left alone to wander aimlessly and confused for all eternity. How did this happen? What will Zach do?
