Why Not?! Read Alpha Flight with Chris & Tom

Shownotes Transcript

Welcome to Why Not?!, Episode 3: "What If Why Not?! Talked About What We Need To Talk About In Order to Talk About Alpha Flight (Part 3)", wherein we wrap up our pre-history of Alpha Flight in preparation for Issue 1 of the solo series.

In this episode: Tom expresses yet more distaste re:

  • everyone’s favorite Secret Agent Linebacker Superhero Dr. Walter Langoswki
  • and Chris’ comparison of said hero to Connor MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod (seriously, I don’t know how I’m still doing this podcast)

More importantly: Aurora may or may not have given a young boy a crippling fetish in under two seconds flat.

AND we have:

  • A pretty wild bit of voice work (search “Shoresy” at your own risk)
  • An evil shaman (not Shaman-shaman, but one of his predecessors…just read it!) who decides the world needs to be wiped clean because…we’re destroying it?! And he’s the evil one?
  • Ben Grimm teaching Langowski a lesson or two
  • A few of the questions from the trailer answered (did you catch them all?!)

Issues Covered:

Marvel Two-in-One #83-84

Incredible Hulk #272-273

Incredible Hulk #277-279

Roast of the Fantastic Four one-shot

We’ve had a lot of fun making this and we really do hope you enjoy it, too. And even if you don’t, a great rating and review costs you nothing. Literally nothing. Not even five seconds, right? Less time than it takes Guardian to cross Canada. (Still can’t believe they did the math that…wrong.)
