Marvel Noise Episode 37

This episode is in a time warp! It's night, it's morning, it's night in the car.... Oy. After a sloppy rundown of the week's new releases we get to the good stuff: Steve calls in to tell us about a Gary Frank-penciled Sabretooth (?!?) and a Marvel/DC crossover, Adam Unbounds 2007's Sub-Mariner, Carlos leaves a voicemail in regards to New Avengers #41, Giant-Size Astonishing X-Men #1, and Nova #13; and Pat gets us up to speed on Secret Invasion tie-ins Ms. Marvel #27, Incredible Hercules #116, and New Avengers #41 all while giving his thoughts on what tie-ins are worth your while.

All this plus Marvel Tales! And a phone call from... Bob?!?!

Comics mentioned in this episode include Wolverine: Dangerous Games, Amazing Spider-Man, Cable, Invincible Iron Man, Criminal, Secret Invasion, Thor, Ultimate Origins, and Young X-Men.

MARVEL MASTERWORKS: THE MIGHTY THOR VOL. 7 (and VARIANT)
COVER BY: JACK KIRBY
WRITER: STAN LEE
PENCILS: JACK KIRBY
COLORED BY: WESLEY WONG
The epic saga of the God of Thunder continues as the Marvel Masterworks present another volume of Mighty Thor masterpieces by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby! And there’s no holds barred from these masters of storytelling from page one: The evil Loki, God of Mischief, has created a dilemma of Asgardian proportions (natch!). Only with the medical skill of his guise as Dr. Donald Blake can Thor save the life of the lovely Lady Sif, but only with the power of Thor can he keep Loki at bay!
Meanwhile, in the darkened depths, a threat greater than any Thor has ever before faced rises when the malignant Mangog threatens to unsheathe the Odinsword and bring Ragnarok upon the Norse gods. It’s a tale considered by many to be Lee and Kirby’s most-pulse pounding Asgardian epic. Need we say more?
We do! Because with Stan and Jack, there’s always more amazing revelations around the corner. Like the startling secret hidden from Donald Blake, and a galaxy-spanning adventure that includes the origin of Galactus and a melee that pits Thor and Ego the Living Planet up against the infamous world devourer! Collecting THOR #153-162.

Or just a warm body who can help you through the lonely hours. Be careful what you look for.

Spider-Man’s darkest night? The time? The future. The place? A cold, hostile Manhattan that long ago traded freedom for security, imposed by the brutal soldiers of the Reign. The opposition? Publisher turned rabble-rousing street prophet J. Jonah Jameson, who promises Spider-Man will return to save them all. But the long-vanished hero is a tired old man now – no job, no family, no hope. Can Peter Parker rediscover his once-great power and the great responsibility that comes with it? Or is the Spider’s mask too heavy a burden to bear in this harsh new reality? Featuring Doctor Octopus, Electro, Kraven, Mysterio, Sandman, Scorpion and more! Collecting SPIDER-MAN: REIGN #1-4.
