Avengers assemble! We’re talking to comedian and all-around excellent person, Liz Johnston (she/her) about the fandom that she loves (3000), the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We discuss the most iconic heroes and villains, the infamous ‘blip’, the ‘formula’ of making a Marvel film and how they have impacted the current landscape of Hollywood filmmaking. Is Martin Scorsese correct? Does Marvel make art? What even IS art? And, more importantly, why did Falcon and the Winter Soldier have so much boat content? This episode was brought to you by Stark Industries.
