Me & my friend, Pete

Friends, Foes, Foibles...

In this season's 11th episode, we're dropped right into the fallout of broken trust as Pete deals with the consequences of exposing Captain Stacy. Gwen refuses to abandon her father as he decides it's best to skip town. But ya gotta know, the Kingpin doesn't like loose ends, so they may not get far.
But wait... THERE'S MORE!
Speaking of The Kingpin, he's waited long enough for his rematch with the King of Swing. All this, and what the hell does Norman Osborn think he's doing?
The webs all around are starting to tighten... Good thing, we're here to cheer on our favorite persnickety prince!

Home Alone 83: If These Walls Could Torture...

In this bonus episode breakdown of Moon Knight Vol. IX #17, we explore how Jed MacKay and Alessandro Cappuccio turn the Midnight Mission into a weaponized panopticon where surveillance, architecture, and psychological theater become deadlier than fists. After The Structure murders Hunter’s Moon, Moon Knight doesn’t seek only retaliation; he stages judgment, trapping Grand Mal and Nemean inside a living institution that sees everything and controls the narrative. Drawing on Jeremy Bentham’s original prison design and Michel Foucault’s theory of disciplinary power, this episode argues that Moon Knight wins not through brute force, but by mastering invisibility itself, proving that in the Marvel Comics universe, the most dangerous weapon isn’t violence… It’s being watched.

We Wear The Masks...

Turns out, the whole world really is a stage. In this updated Moon Knight spotlight, we use Erving Goffman’s dramaturgical analysis to explore how Marc Spector, through Steven Grant and Jake Lockley, embodies identity as performance, front stage and backstage behavior, and the masks we all wear.

One More Victory and We are Lost!

The Kingpin's back and he's better than ever!
For Christmas this year,
The Kingpin's here!
Hess Trucks, am I right?
The Kingpin's been hijacking the minds of some of New York City's most powerful men in this instant classic.
Spidey would be there to stop him, but he's got his own problems, namely the Stacy family, specifically George's cane!
While Pete tries to explain to Gwen that he doesn't beat up the elderly, we yap about what makes a "Strongman" and how they use structural domination to consolidate their control.
This is one you don't wanna miss... I promise you'll learn a thing or two about a thing or two!

Dear Journal, It’s Me Again, Bruce...

In this Season I Bonus Episode, Batman's found love again and an ally in his war on crime, but something's off, and the worst thing a Batman can do in a city like Gotham is trust. Oh, well, at least he still has his journal.

The Feet First Fiasco!

 
Spidey likes the nightlife, Spidey likes to boogie, Spidey likes to lay hands on any gangster spoiling the fun for his Silver Spoon Gang!
We've got MJ shaking a tailfeather!
We've got Pete and Aunt May reunited!
We've got Gwen and Pete finally admitting their feelings for each other, and love is in the air!
But on the flipside?
We've got the Brainwasher, New York's newest (?) would-be Kingpin, using his nightclub as a front and MJ an unwitting accomplice to his criminal shenanigans!
And if we're talking nightclubs? You know we're talking paradoxes... Namely, how they have become both safe spaces for women in many instances and a structure that upholds the male gaze.
Put on ya dancing shoes and let's go! There's only one rule... Ya gotta come in FEET FIRST!
