We saw Ant-Man and The Wasp! Don't listen to this episode if you don't want to be SPOILED!
And, of course, you want to see the Punisher balloon that local comic fan/magician Mr J made for Garth Ennis:
Balloon Punisher War Journal, entry 4573: "A bullet grazed me today but I don't think it fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft."
See you in two weeks for Hellboy Omnibus vol. 1! I'm going on vacation!!!!
OHMYGODIT'SFINALLYHERE!!!!
We are joined once again by our pal J.Bone to discuss the movie that we've all been, um, looking forward to, Captain America: Civil War (or, as I like to call it BUCKY! BUCKY! BUCKY! BUCKY!).
Look, I'm not even going to write that much this week. Because this episode is LONG. We joke at the beginning about going two hours, but guess what? We completely did. Longer, even!
I cut as much as I can, and the rest, I am sure you'll agree, is solid gold.
Here's the thing though, guys. I got so caught up talking about the actual plot of this movie that I forgot to mention how scorching hot Winter Soldier is in it. And so did J! Like, what was this episode even for?!
So here are some things I forgot to mention in this episode:
So yeah. That's important.
Hey, here's a supercut of that Late Late Show episode clip where Sebastian Stan flirts hard with Sharon Stone until she flirts back with him. Then he turns into a giggling mess. It's VERY CUTE!
I wish that video wasn't edited so heavily. You can probably find that whole episode online somewhere. I would recommend. Zach Woods is very funny. At the end of the episode Sebastian turns to him and says "we should be friends!"
Anyway, enjoy the episode. We had fun recording it. I shouldn't speak for everyone. I had fun recording it, even though it went way past my bedtime.
Now let's start the countdown to the next Avengers movie! 2018! YEAH!!!!
Dave and I saw Ant-Man this week and we spoil the hell out of it in this Giant-Size Ant-Man episode (actually a normal length episode). And can I just say, it was nice to have a recorded conversation with Dave about a Marvel movie after writing out all those dialogues for our Countdown to Age of Ultron recaps on this blog.
First we discuss the Batman vs Superman trailer, which you can watch here:
And I really go off on "Renner of the Week" Jesse Eisenberg's dumb 'genocide' comments about Comic Con. You can read about what he actually said here.
We talk about the X-Men: Apocalypse images, which you can see here.
And I try to talk coherently about Hayley Atwell's DubSmash videos. I can't. Just watch these and try not to die (like you haven't watched them a million times already). You can see the whole epic battle here.

— Hayley Atwell (@HayleyAtwell) July 15, 2015Just follow Hayley Atwell on Twitter and Instagram. She's the best. You can check out the full Pajiba 10 2015 list, which is a great list of sexy people that I fully endorse. It's also full of hot pics and gifs like this one:
I keep talking about how awesome Planet Hulk is on the podcast and I keep not mentioning either the writer or the artist's names. which is very dumb and horrible. So here they are:
As I mention, the Ant-Man end of credits scene makes me lose my damn mind. There is a good in-depth look at both end credits scenes here. This line made me very sad:
“Add in Sebastian Stan’s intense acting and it doesn’t take much to believe that this Bucky is also one who has pretty much decided to give up.”
Bucky!!! Noooo!!! I love youuuuuu!!!
Dave had another idea about the end credits scene, which he has drawn here and it is the best:
On the episode I refer to the writer of the Paul Rudd article as a man. It was a woman! Ugh! I am part of the problem!!! You can read that great New York Times article on Paul Rudd here, and you can join me in trying to solve the Mystery of the Obnoxious Avenger that the author clearly hates (I still think it's Downey, though my heart wants it to be Renner). Here's the quote, for quick reference:
“Twenty feet away, a different Avenger hammily belted show tunes into a personal fan while some crew members pretended to laugh. Noninclusive.”
Big thanks to Dave for letting me go on about Magic Mike XXL for awhile. It's basically all I can think about.
I am not kidding about adding Sebastian Stan to Magic Mike 3. I mean, I know these movies don't need more white dudes, but please. I went home after recording and Google image searched things like 'Sebastian Stan dancing' 'Sebastian Stan shirtless' and 'Sebastian Stan lips' for quite awhile. More than usual, even.
Next week we are totally going to talk about comic books on this podcast.
Living Between Wednesdays is a place for people who love comic books and superheroes.
