Introducing Marvel Reread Club! This podcast will consist of us rereading every single Marvel superhero comic, starting with the beginning of the Marvel Age, one month at a time, and having fun discussing them. Most episodes will feature multiple comics, but for this first episode, we’ll just discuss the only Marvel comic to come out in November, 1961: Fantastic Four #1!

How should one listen to this podcast? We’re hoping to make it enjoyable whether or not you’ve read these comics. Have we succeeded? That’s up to you to answer! If you do want to read along, then get yourself a Marvel Unlimited subscription. 

We hope you like it! We’re still finding our footing, and will continue to do so. We will actually be releasing this one weekly, at least for a while, every Wednesday (aka, New Comics Day!) 

Okay, folks, give it a listen if you’re interested and let us know what you think!
