Ep. 140: Why Was Dracula On The Moon, And How Did The Punisher Become A Frankenstein Monster?
We’re keeping the fun Halloween vibes going this week with two more creepy, horror-themed Marvel stories. From Dracula shooting vampires out of cannons on the moon to Frank Castle being reanimated to fight on behalf of monsters.
Ep. 139: What Is The Best Marvel Halloween Story?
The Doombots aren’t ready for Halloween to be over yet, so we’re going to discuss some spooky horror Marvel Halloween stories. We begin with that time Captain America was a werewolf. How did this happen? Why did this happen? Was the story actually good? Who is Zachary Moonhunter? Is a wolverine a wolf? Is Wolverine a wolf? Does being hypnotized make you legally not liable for crimes? What is the sentencing process like for turning someone into a werewolf? There are so many questions that need answering!
Ep. 138: What Was So Good About the Gargoyles Cartoon?
By the time you’re reading this, a Fantastic Four and Gargoyles crossover comic will have just been published. To get you ready for it, Zach and Searnold discuss the original Gargoyles cartoon, which is Searnold’s favorite of all time. They talk about the premise of the show and who its major characters were. They look at the strange naming conventions the Gargoyles use. There’s a little bit of Shakespeare and a little bit of time travel and an inexplicably long second season. Listen now to get all the details you need to know about “Gargoyles”!
Ep. 137: Did Doctor Strange Really Die?
In this week’s episode, we’ll be examining Jed MacKay’s run on Doctor Strange, starting with the “Death of Doctor Strange”, moving through Clea’s time as Sorcerer Supreme during “Strange”, all the way through the end of “Doctor Strange” during “Blood Hunt”. We’ll discuss how Steven died, how he came back, and what that meant for the people around him. We’ll also discuss whether or not Jed MacKay is a good writer and end with a segment about nominative determinism. All that and more in this episode of the Doombots Marvel Podcast!
Ep. 136: Who Is Snake Plissken (and Why Does He Keep Having to Escape From Places)?
First there was Escape From New York, and then came Escape From LA, and along the way, the world fell in love with Kurt Russell’s iconic anti-hero Snake Plissken. Along the way, there were also multiple other stories about Snake’s many adventures in both comic books, a novelization of the original film and a knock-off psuedo-sequel.
Ep. 135: Why Does Captain America Have a Penguin?
Back at the beginning of 2025, we teased that J. Michael Straczynski’s current run on Captain America featured a penguin… let’s say “sidekick” for lack of a better word. Now that his run has concluded, we can finally reveal all of the penguin’s secrets! In this episode, we’ll spend far more time than is warranted discussing the ins-and-outs of penguins in the Marvel universe. Then, Cap teams up with Thor and Spider-Man to restore Broxton, Oklahoma. Plus, Doctor Doom and Rocket Raccoon travel back before the beginning of time! Don’t miss this jam-packed episode!
Ep. 134: How Did Iron Man Become Sheriff Of The Moon?
This week, we’re taking a look at Iron Man: Fatal Frontier, and traveling through the cosmos with Tony Stark. We’ll be looking at how the moon declared war on Earth, how Iron Man thought he could help, and why he began working with a lonely soviet robot. Also, we’re asking the big, important questions like: Is Tony Stark the dumbest Marvel hero ever?
Ep. 133: Why Does Cyberpunk 2077 Have The Best World-Building Of Any Video Game Ever?
On this week’s Doombots Marvel Podcast, we’re leaving the Marvel Universe and taking a trip to Night City! Cyberpunk 2077 is the culmination of decades of world-building that took place acorss many TTRPG games, and now has become the most complex, immersive, and mind-blowing fictional worlds of all time!
Ep. 132: What Is Silver Surfer’s Whole Deal?
From cosmic nonsense to extensive retconning to time travel, Silver Surfer has it all! At least in terms of things that make some Doombots have psychotic meltdowns. However, Silver Surfer is also rad af, delightfully weird, and very unique, giving him a complexity that many cosmic characters don’t possess.
