THN Gang Hang! | Wonder Man, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Reborn: Ultimate Impact, Highlander & MORE!
Wonder Man is WONDERful! (I’ll see myself out…)
Join former comic shop managers and lifelong comic fans Joe Patrick and Matt Baum for their Saturday Morning Gang Hang! Each week, the guys assemble with their loyal Listenerds on the THN Discord where they talk about the latest TV, movie, and comic book headlines, plus whatever else pops into their heads! Here are the Gang Hang topics for Saturday 1/31:
This week, the Gang dives into Marvel Spotlight Television, Hollywood’s obsession with prequels, fantasy novels, and the state of the Marvel machine:
- Wonder Man: We discuss the Disney+ Wonder Man series starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. How does it compare to Simon Williams’s comic roots, and are audiences actually tuning in?
- A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: HBO is headed back to Westeros with the Dunk and Egg prequel. After a disappointing end to the final season of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon Season 2, does anyone still care?
- Highlander & Rambo: There’s a new Highlander in town, but who should replace Queen on the soundtrack? Plus, we break down the news of a Rambo prequel—do we really need John Rambo’s origin story?
- The Dresden Files: Jim Butcher is back with a new novel! We check in on Harry Dresden and the state of urban fantasy in 2026.
- Marvel Editorial – With the ‘Reborn: Ultimate Impact’ storyline on the horizon, the X-Men freshly out of the Age of Revelation, and spinoffs of Jonathan Hickman’s Imperial hitting shelves now, the Gang asks the tough question: Is Marvel editorial too heavy-handed for creators to tell a good story?
If you love comics, superhero movies, and insider takes from a pair of former comic book retailing pros who still live in the longboxes, this show is for you. Come hang out with the Listenerds on our THN Discord — bring your hot takes, recommendations, and questions!
