Spider Man’s Billion Dollar Week & MCU Incursions Explained!

Spider-Man Brand New Day is absolutely demolishing the box office, hitting $1.3 billion globally in its first ten days, and we debate if it’s actually breaking records or if ticket inflation is playing tricks on us. We also dive into the wild rumors surrounding The Batman Part 2 introducing the Court of Owls, and the controversial Endgame Encore re-release that is adding new footage to the MCU timeline. But that’s just the warm-up. We are breaking down X-Men '97 Episode 8, ranting about Professor X hiding under his blanket, and unpacking the insane Gambit and Apocalypse dynamic. For our character deep dives, we pull back the curtain on the tragic, dark origin of Angel (Warren Worthington III) and how he became the bloodthirsty Archangel. Then, we pivot to the Road to Doomsday, fully explaining MCU Incursions, dream walking, and how Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness perfectly set up the collapse of the Marvel multiverse.

Spider-Man Brand New Day is absolutely demolishing the box office, hitting $1.3 billion globally in its first ten days, and we debate if it’s actually breaking records or if ticket inflation is playing tricks on us. We also dive into the wild rumors surrounding The Batman Part 2 introducing the Court of Owls, and the controversial Endgame Encore re-release that is adding new footage to the MCU timeline.


But that’s just the warm-up. We are breaking down X-Men '97 Episode 8, ranting about Professor X hiding under his blanket, and unpacking the insane Gambit and Apocalypse dynamic. For our character deep dives, we pull back the curtain on the tragic, dark origin of Angel (Warren Worthington III) and how he became the bloodthirsty Archangel. Then, we pivot to the Road to Doomsday, fully explaining MCU Incursions, dream walking, and how Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness perfectly set up the collapse of the Marvel multiverse.
