It's a secret invasion of the About Heroes podcast! Is one of us a Skrull? Ben joins the regulars to help us figure it out. On this episode:
It was a bit of a slow week in comic books, but we soldier on through and talk about:
Also, two quick notes. Yes, this episode is intentionally without the opening music and episode title, because I thought the way we recorded it was funnier. And we've decided to integrate the clip show we spoke of before into episode 100. We didn't forget.
Episode 99 - What He Plants on the Ladies

Hey guys, can't wait for podcast #100.
I found it very interesting that your listeners from overseas don't believe Americans know where their countries are located. I guess between Miss South Carolina and our President, Americans can be perceived as dumb-asses. And although the guy from California made a good joke, I'm from Delaware. I've lived in other states, and you wouldn't believe how many AMERICANS have no idea where Delaware is. Ask yourselves, do you know?
That is why I must commend teachers such as Melanie, who takes the time to get the dick out of her mouth so she can teach our future, the kids. LOL
Maybe you guys can help me with a question concerning toys. Why is DC kicking Marvel's butt when it comes to action figures? There seem to be 2-3 series of DC figures coming out every month, while Marvel Legends has been disappointing since Hasbro took over. I realize Marvel wants to concentrate on toy lines of their movies and cartoons, but IMO they should be producing all the cool figures like DC does, in artist and story-based waves. Any insight on this? I want my goddam Tigra and Nova figures!
Thanks, Starfoxxx
BTW, i forgot to say i love the new "zombiefied" banner on the website.
Great to hear spider-ben back. Even though he was already hating on Final Crisis and he hasn't even read it. That guy hasn't changed at all.
Fantastic episode. Loved hearing all your different views of Secret Invasion. I have been Marvel-free since One More Day and just read DC comics now. But it is really nice to catch up with the Marvel U through the podcast.
I found it funny how spider-ben was eager to talk about Secret Invasion and he kept getting cut off. Poor guy, but not poor him for getting interrupted, poor him because he still buys spiderman. Great review of Secret Invasion guys, I am one of the few people that hated it. I find little green men no threat to real heroes.
