Excalibur #14: "Too Many Heroes"

The Oh Gosh, Oh Golly, Oh Wow! Podcast

Summer’s rolling in, which means it’s time for an epic crossover! Anna, Mav, and Andrew are joined by Sean Ross of the Secret Wars & Beyond Podcast to slice-and-dice our way through the too-silly-to-exist shenanigans of Excalibur #14, “Too Many Heroes,” featuring appearances by the Silver Skateboarder, Deathlok-Captain America, a too-giant Giant Man, and… Chris Claremont and John Byrne? Amid this tidal wave of mayhem, we retreat to the safety of Phoenix force cocoons to discuss the history, pain, and joy of crossovers, Excalibur’s still-deft character work, and how clothes make the mutant. Plus, Sean convinces us the name of our podcast is deeply meaningful and not a silly inside joke, as we’d first assumed.
