Season 5: Episode 22: Cable’s Farewell

eXaMENation

Wolverine #14, S.W.O.R.D. #7, Cable #12

We’ve had technical difficulties (both personally and with our podcast services) so it is late. But the good news is, that means you guys are getting a double feature. This episode the guys discuss the full slate of upcoming Marvel TV shows and movies. What made the shows so far great? What are we most excited about in the next slate of TV shows? How about movies? What needs to happen to make these new properties really stick? Scarlett Johannsen sues Marvel for breach of contract regarding her incentives for a theatrical release and the fact that Black Widow was the first Marvel product to be streamed with its release. Stepping into the Crucible the guys discuss the most punchable face on Krakoa. Wolverine gets back to basics and reminds us why he is the best at what he does as he investigates mutant threats in Madripoor. S.W.O.R.D. takes place in space, but feels like it gets a little hijacked by the Annihilation tie-in story. Cable gets his swan song as the team takes on Stryfe one more, or last, or the first time (time travel is hard!). Where is the character of Cable when all of this is over and where can he go from here? Find out this and more in this week’s episode!
