Some of My Friends Read Comics - A podcast by Some of My Friends Read Comics - Wednesdays
Before Big Hero 6 was a movie, it was a Marvel superhero team based out of Japan that got two largely forgotten miniseries. We're reading their 5-issue mini from 2008 written by classic X-Men scribe Chris Claremont and drawn by David Nakayama. Unfortunately these issues may have been better off remaining forgotten, because Big Hero 6 might be the Balan Wonderworld of comics. We try to figure out just what the heck went wrong and how they avoided these disasters with the movie. We had a much better time reading Amazing Spider-Man #4 and seeing Spidey throw sand in the air. Next Time: Squadron Supreme: Death of a Universe
