It’s been a few months since a pair streaming series based on secondary characters from Marvel’s WandaVision (2021), and DC’s The Batman (2022) debuted. Expectations, and the level of excitement, was low for both of these offerings. Now that Agatha all Along and The Penguin have wrapped the Joe’s go back and review the two series as a whole. Agatha, with an eccentric ensemble cast, followed the Witch’s Road, on a surprisingly entertaining journey, which proved alternately humorous, and quite dark. While over in the seedy, and still water soaked, underbelly of Gotham City, Oswald Cobb (played by an unrecognizable Colin Farrell) gave a brutal new dimension to an 80+ year-old Batman villain. MAX’s The Penguin is a surprise hit and on the top of the year’s best list for at least two of the Joe’s. And there’s also the usual Random Topics, and a round of What’s in the Box. Thanks for listening!

This week the Regular Joes address the science (empirically provable facts) and fiction (ain’t never gonna happen) state of the last few years of Disney/Star Wars film/project/director announcements. From the reality side of the equation, they discuss recently dropped trailers for two Marvel films Captain America: Brave New World and Thunderbolts* in the queue for the coming months. Which of these continues to gain interest, and which is slowly edging its way into the, “we’ll see“ category?
If you enjoy watching social security eligible men doing risky things you’re going to be excited for Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning, which has a new trailer, a new title, and lots of Tom Cruise running. Lastly Dave goes to another con. Oh the Horror!

Last week the Regular Joes (all the Regular Joes) travelled from up and down the east coast to gather in Providence RI, for the Rhode Island Comic-Con, AKA the biggest con in the littlest state. After spending a day and a half, roaming the sales floor and checking out the show’s guests, the Joes took their traditional Sofa in the lobby of the Omni Providence, to share their experience with you. Who they saw, what they picked up, and why Barry actually bought comics at a comic con. They had a few celebrity guests stop in along the way, including Michelle Ang, Omega from Star Wars: The Bad Batch, and Dr. Britt Burke DMD (AEW) a pro wrestler, and …. yes, a dentist. It’s always a good time at the Omni. Thanks for listening!
