Loki Season 2 comes to a climax as one of the most complex and well-performed characters gets a very fitting ending (it appears), and my guest Anne and I get into every detail along the way, as we discuss the writing, direction, costuming, and other choices made and how they impact the story as a whole.
The branches get much more literal.
It’s the penultimate episode of Loki Season 2, and Anne and I have quite a bit to discuss, from the gorgeous camerawork to the rise of the God of Stories. Take a listen, and let us know what you think!
I have a feeling we’ll be hearing this line from Tom Hiddleston’s mouth soon.
Continuing our Deep Dive on the second season of Loki, we’ve reached Episode 4. But with that ending, is it the last episode? No, but we’ll discuss our theories on what happens this episode, see where theories went right or wrong from past episodes, and what happens next.
In the episode, we discuss some Soviet-era mosaics and specifically mention a website to view some of them. Said website can be found here.
One particularly appropriate example, in case you don’t have time to click the link above…
The Deep Dive of Season 2 of Loki continues with Guest Anne Valliant. There is much costume discussion, as well as World’s Fair history, as we look at the episode that takes place almost entirely in the year that it’s named after…1893.
The production team did a great job recreating the Ferris Wheel (actual photo seen here)
Did we get an appearance from Turner D. Century? (Maybe, but probably not…)
We’re starting a new Deep Dive, but it’s our first continuation, as we discuss Season 2 of Loki. Guest Dennis Riddle joins me for this episode as we discuss the new characters, the new situations, and of course, any comic book connections. Plus, how many hair flips does Loki do?
Let’s go!
The final episode of Secret Invasion takes us “Home.” Well, at least, for those that survived. To find out who those are, take a listen as Dag and I discuss the season finale, it’s ups and downs, and what it might mean for future MCU projects.
It’s time to play…Spot the Powers!
It’s been hinted at and this week we finally know for sure what the “Harvest” is and why it’s so important. Once again, Dag joins me for this Deep Dive into Secret Invasion. Find out who our favorite new MCU character is among other things in this penultimate episode.
Fine, I’ll just tell you…It’s her. She’s our favorite new MCU character.
From last week’s “Betrayed,” to this week’s “Beloved,” we’ve got some important conversations, and one giant action scene. Dag and I discuss all the details of this episode, including the Skrull reveal (that was really done last episode), and another fateful death.
Yes, but for how long?
This week’s episode of Secret Invasion is titled “Betrayed,” and it makes sense, as there are plenty of people feeling that way. Fortunately, Dag didn’t betray me, and he showed up to bring his thoughts on the show. Together, he and I discuss the ins and outs of the plot, and where we think things will go from here.
The comic book version of Varra has made only a couple of appearances. This is the one you can see her best in.
Secrets are starting to be revealed in this Secret Invasion, especially right at the end of this episode. Special guest Dag (aka TrekNexus) and I discuss our thoughts, theories, and general opinions on the episode titled “Promises.”
We have a feeling that this guy (or someone very similar) is in our future…
…so you should learn his Theme Song.
Who Can You Trust? Find out (or at least theorize) in this first episode of our Deep Dive into the Secret Invasion show on Disney+. Is Nick Fury really as washed up as everyone says he is, or is that just another one of his spy tricks? Special guest TrekNexus from the Beyond Trek podcast joins me as we debate that and other details from the show.
If you watch this after watching Episode 1, you’ll notice some new things you didn’t see the first time.
I say the chances of seeing something like this in the show are just about nil, but that’s okay, because this never was something that actually happened in the comics either.
No soda sipping for the original Talos…
As I say in the episode, I believe this is Gravik’s closest comic counterpart.
Longtime horror fan (of both movies and comics) Michael Vee joins me in this Deep Dive of the Disney+ Special Presentation of “Werewolf By Night,” inspired by the comics and films on which my guest is quite knowledgable. Just in time for Halloween, take a listen after you’ve watched the show, because Spooky Spoilers Abound!
You probably should have planned ahead on this, Jack.
Yes, he’s Giant-Sized.
Wait, that’s Elsa Bloodstone? Well, not for long…
Yeah, that’s what she looks like usually (as opposed to her first appearance above).
As should be obvious by now, I love the character of She-Hulk, so I’m going to be diving into her “fun lawyer show” on Disney+, along with guest Andy Wilson from the Kiss Your Franchise Goodbye podcast. In this first episode, we get Jen’s super heroic origin story, and we learn more about Captain America than we may have wanted…
Moon Knight is a mysterious enough character that I thought it deserved a Deep Dive, and I brought along a guest, author John Mulhall to discuss the ins and outs of the show, compare and contrast with its comic origins, and do some light theorizing as to where it’s headed.
Just a little different from the show.
With the Loki show diving into one of Kurt’s favorite subjects (Time Travel), of course he’s going to dive deep into the show as well, looking at all the comic book connections, and theorizing with his guest, Anne V. This first episode we discuss the TVA, Mobius, and all the little moments that made the show so much fun.
Mark Gruenwald, the original face of…
Mobius M. Mobius (Not sure what the M stands for, but I can guess…)
Ravonna (the judge in the show) is…just a little different…in the comics.
Continuing our look at the new MCU show starring Elizabeth Olson and Paul Bettany on Disney+, Kurt is joined by personal friend and frequent question asker Joel L. (an MCU fan, but not a regular comic reader) in order to see the show from all sides, theorize about the mysteries, and discuss the connections to the comics that inspired the series.
We’re nearly to the end! Please let me know what you think by emailing welcometogeektown@gmail.com or clicking the “Submit a Question” link at the top of the page!
If you have to ask, the answer is probably “No.”

The two intros fit so well together, many fans made edits like this. This is my personal favorite.

(an MCU fan, but not a regular comic reader) in order to see the show from all sides, theorize about the mysteries, and discuss the connections to the comics that inspired the series, spending quite a bit of time on the special guest appearance at the end, and what that means for the MCU’s future.
The most important doorbell ring in the MCU.

Yes, we’re now theorizing about a show we’re watching where people are watching a show and theorizing.
We discuss or have discussed all of these so far. Take a listen to the first two episodes in this run if you missed anything!

There are a couple of pictures of other characters mentioned in this episode that could have gone here, but if I use an image from the comics, it could be considered spoilers.
