Welcome to Why Not?!, Episode 11: “Runaway Fiance”
In which Marrina (and some other AWOL characters) waltz back into our lives…and waltz right back out. And Walt doesn't waltz at all. Hell, he isn’t even in any of these issues…or is he?!
In this episode, Chris:
- makes a compelling case for the soap opera nature of AF and how distinct that makes it from other superhero comics
- clearly wishes AF had Doom as a nemesis and not The Master of the World
- is ok with saying “Alphan” but “broodmate” gets his hackles up
- really wishes Tom wouldn't make some of the speculations he does
Tom:
- cops to watching a lot of Dark Shadows
- makes a Hemingway title recommendation for probably the first time in his life
- says “Box” in a, somewhat, peculiar manner
- speculates on Walt's hobbies
