Supes joins us to talk about the trailer, discuss our biggest winners and losers, and answer YOUR QUESTIONS about Peter Parker's next adventure.
Not lost in the shuffle, What If...? dropped one of the most intriguing episodes of Marvel television on Disney+ with it's third episode, "What If The World Lost Its Mightiest Heroes."

We review the latest episode in full and deep dive into speculation going forward.
Venom: Let There Be Carnage is one of the more interesting comic book movies on the 2021 slate. With rumblings of another release date delay, we break down why Spider-Man fans should not be worried if Venom 2 is pushed once again.
