Episode description

This time out, Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) have some secrets to share...about the landmark comics event from 1984, Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars! First, a mention of the actual first event from Marvel Comics that happened two years earlier. Then, a discussion about the secret origins of the Secret Wars event and a run-down of every issue in the series! After the break, we take a look at the aftermath of Secret Wars and its lasting impact on the Marvel Universe and comics publishing as a whole, running down some of the biggest events from Marvel and DC from 1985 until today! It's a shocking episode with many twists and turns that are largely wiped away at the very end! Have a listen!
