Welcome Back to Mine Multiversity: A Marvel Podcast! Each episode we’ll be looking at Marvel books, old and new! We discuss fun Marvel comics, Marvel news, Marvel history, and the first new Eternals (maxi)series since Jack Kirby’s original.
Make Mine Multiversity is a twice-monthly podcast that premieres on the first and third Friday of every month. Thena and Kro have a running event to get kidnapped on those days. Oh how I wish I was joking.
It’s a new year but we’re not nearly done with our read through of all of The Eternals. Join us as we dig into the twelve-issue maxi-series “The Eternals” (Vol. 2) and discover why Ikaris really shouldn’t be the poster boy for these characters with digressions into the Royal Rumble, Simonson NOT on “Thor,” and Kieron Gillen’s first tenure on “X-Men.” Give us a Vampirio and Kro issue you cowards!
Next time, we’re reading Avengers (Vol. 1 ) #308-310 (October 1989- November 1989); Eternals: The Herod Factor (November 1991); Avengers (Vol. 1 ) #361, #374-375 (April 1993, May 1994 -June 1994) and possibly Avengers Spotlight #35 which features Gilgamesh and Sprite. There’s no good way to find these issues outside of bargain bins, digital comics sellers, and Marvel Unlimited! Gotta love this weird, weird era.
For the curious though, you can find “Avengers” #308-310 & “Marvel Spotlight” #35 in “Avengers” by John Byrne Omnibus, “Avengers” #361 & “Marvel Spotlight” #35 in “Eternals” Cosmic Origins,” and “Eternals: Herod Factor in “Eternals: The Complete Saga” Omnibus. As far as I, Elias, can tell, “Avengers” #374 & 375 are the only ones to have never been reprinted.
Finally, we’re still not over our new theme, “Excelsior,” and it’s composer Carol Romo!
