Welcome back to Make Mine Multiversity: A Marvel Podcast! Each episode we’ll be looking at Marvel books, old and new! Well that’s what we usually do, we discuss fun Marvel comics, and also Marvel news, Marvel history and Marvel trivia. At least, it was, before the bugs attacked.
Make Mine Multiversity is a twice-monthly podcast that premieres on the first and third Friday of every month!
Today we continue our coverage of the ANNIHILATION SAGA, a project we’re going to be tackling for many episodes to come! This week, we take a bit of a breather from the main action to delve into three mini series that are tangentially related to, or touched by, the Annihilation wave. “Annihilation: Silver Surfer,” “Annihilation: Super Skrull,” and “Annihilation: Ronan” were all wildly different from each other, but don’t just take this description’s word for it, go on and listen! Trade readers can find these in “Annihilation Book Two” or split between “Annihilation: The Complete Collection” Vol. 1 and Vol. 2.
For your enjoyment, here’s Gilbert Gottfried reading that Liquid Snake monologue.
Also, a correction. Simon Furman wrote the back half of the original US Transformers line, many early Transformers UK issues as well as the beginning of the IDW stuff, but NOT the original miniseries. That was Bill Mantlo (#1-2) and Jim Salicrup (#3-4) followed by Bob Budiansky when it became an ongoing (#5-55).
Next time, we will close out the first part of the Annihilation Saga with the main “Annihilation” series #1-6, “Annihilation: Heralds of Galactus” #1-2 and “Nova” (2007) #1-3. Trade readers can find the first two in “Annihilation: Book Three” or “Annihilation: The Complete Collection,” Vol. 2 as well as “Nova” (2007) Vol. 1: Annihilation. Do not read issues #4-7! Those will be coming up in a couple episodes.
