Thunderbolts* is the best Marvel movie ever made according to Jay, and Mike thinks it’s the best Marvel movie in quite a while. Listen in to hear why and to get some of that delicious, delicious comic book background that Jay dishes out. Was Taskmaster done wrong? Is Sentry from the comics? Will the Thunderbolts be the New Avengers? We talk about all of that and more.

We talk about Doctor Strange and the things you missed if you never read the comics. Hear about Dr. Stephen Strange, Kamar-Taj, Yao the Ancient One, various dimensions, Dormammu, and more!
Talk with us on Twitter.
Links from the discussion…
Dr. Stephen Strange’s origin story as Doctor Strange in the movie is strikingly similar to that in the comics.
Doctor Strange was created in 1963 which is the same year Lamborghini was founded, but the car he crashed in the comics looks more like an Aston Martin than a 1960’s Lamborghini.
Kamar-Taj is a remote community in the Himalayan mountains in or near Tibet.
Yao the Ancient One is hundreds of years old and was born in Kamar-Taj.
Mordo was from Transylvania in the comics and also attempted to gain power from Dormammu.
Very much unlike the Doctor Strange movie Kaecilius was a disciple of Mordo in the comics.
Wong was a servant of the Sorcerer Supreme which means he became Doctor Strange’s servant in the comics.
Dormammu from Doctor Strange is highly similar to Alioth from Loki.
Doctor Strange’s amulet, the Eye of Agamotto, never held an Infinity Stone in the comics but was also known as the All-Seeing Eye of Infinity.
Doctor Strange’s Cloak of Levitation was a gift given to him by the Ancient One after prevailing against Dormammu.
Chiwetel Ejiofor confirms he's returning to the MCU as Mordo for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Muse is mad gross, yo. (Fun fact! In the comics, this dude dies, goes to hell and is still a serial killer IN HELL!)
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Muse_(Earth-616)
Yes, the Anti-Vigilante task force is a thing in the comics.
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Vigilante_Infraction_General_Interdiction_and_Limitation_(Earth-616)
During my research, there is no task force lead by Fisk in the comics, but his anti-vigilante stand is a thing.
And, yeah, we’re gonna get a new White Tiger.

Captain America: Brave New World
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pHDWnXmK7Y
-We see Isaiah Bradley, the 1950s Captain America and the first Black Super Soldier. He was how the bad guys got the super soldier serum in Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Remember him? Well, he's up to some bad stuff...
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Isaiah_Bradley_(Earth-616)
Thunderbolt Ross is now the President, played by Harrison Ford. He's attacked by Isaiah.
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Thaddeus_Ross_(Earth-616)#Secretly_Becoming_the_Red_Hulk
There is a massive fight in the middle of the ocean. And, if you look carefully, you can see the hand of the dead Eternal from, well, the Eternals.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternals_(film)
Lots of Cap fighting, both in his suit and without. Fun stuff. Clear images of Giancarlo Esposito as the Sindwinder, leader of the Serpent Society.
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Serpent_Society_(Earth-616)
Thunderbolts*
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IiAm7KUuoY
You guys can google these on your own, but we have the White Widow, Red Guardian, USAgent, Ghost, the Winter Soldier and Taskmaster. Along with, I think, Sentry. Lots of pretty cool superheroes here.
The Thunderbolts was originally real, real, different. I'm curious what we see with this team, and if Baron Zemo will be involved.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunderbolts_(comics)
I'm thinking all this is taking place in New York City, at the Stark Tower, or whatever it was from the first Avengers Movie.
Ironheart

Iron Man came out in 2008. 16 years later, we’ve had a ton of Marvel movies and shows that have created a blend of cool story telling. But also some lingering questions that have never been answered. We attempt to discuss just some of them. And when I say some, I say way too many for one podcast. Join us as we discuss the loose plot threads of the MCU!
