Weekly Update 12/16/19
🕑 Added 2019-12-16 18:43:13 +0000 UTCInstead of talking about the absolute wild and crazy (and maybe kinda fun!) mess that is today's Variant Cover, I just want to reflect real quick on the past year.
We released Episode One (about the Golden Age of Marvel) on January 1st of last year, and while I think Dave and I have made some huge strides in confidence and quality, I'm still very proud of those first few episodes. While I maybe could have imagined how sizable the listener base would get over the year, I couldn't have predicted how this comics podcast could turn into its own little community, full of inside jokes, heroes and villains, unique personalities from all over the world, and even a couple new religions. And we've grown a listener base large enough it's become worth starting a whole second show! That's so crazy to me.
I can't thank our listeners and supporters enough. Here's to 1000 more years of My Marvelous Year (after which we'll finally start My DC Year)!!!

This week's episode is Marvel Year Seventeen: 1978 Variant Cover! Next week's episode will be a year end wrap-up, Christmas-y, best of free for all, partially to give us a break, and partially to let people catch up with their reading over the holidays.
