Andrew and Wen welcome the very funny Maureen Monahan (Our Cartoon President, Tooning Out The News) to talk about all of our favorite Web-Head, the Amazing Spider-Man! From his beginnings as Stan Lee's attempt to make a relatable Superhero to doing the most relatable thing of all, having his Broadway dreams crushed.
Andrew and Wen welcome the very funny Maureen Monahan (Our Cartoon President, Tooning Out The News) to discuss Wen's favorite things, Broadway musicals and comic books. That's right, we're diving in to Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark!
The three dive deep into Spider-Man comics, from his origins as a sickly orphan, to the weird edgy take where his sperm killed his wife, to the Tobey Maguire movies we loved, culminating in the Broadway musical that we absolutely didn't. How did a Spider-Man musical featuring Bono, the lady from The Lion King, and zero comic book fans turn out so badly? The answer is obvious but it's still a fun ride!
