A CRISIS of Infinite Options
Manage episode 507153770 series 180201
Greg welcomes DC3Cast’s Brian Salvatore back to the show to help out with this Shelf Bound look at DC’s 1985 blockbuster event CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS. After catching up on Brian’s busy post-Multiversity life, balancing different passions including music, baseball, and family, and various podcasts, it’s time for some CRISIS management to figure out the optimal way to tackle the monumental and sprawling story Marv Wolfman and George Perez unleashed.
Do you stick to JUST the 12-issue maxiseries?
Do you throw caution to the wind and read EVERY red sky tie-in?
Do you go even further and include the various “Crisis” JLA/JSA precursors and the LEGENDS mini follow-up?
What about Marvel’s CRISIS parodies like MIGHTY MOUSE’s “Mices on Infinite Earths”?
It’s a biiiiiig question, but these are the two lads willing to walk into the anti-matter to answer that question, and many more.
[This episode is number 818 in a series.]
