Episode 342 : How do we bring the Fantastic Four and X-Men into the MCU?

Can the Fantastic Four and X-Men join the MCU smoothly?

Greetings adventurers, and welcome to this weeks installment of The Surly Nerd! After our prelude, we head right into the weekly raid (our news roundup).
Kicking things off this week, Claremont and Anderson are coming back to God Loves Man Kills, to tell us a whole new story in that comic timeline. Image comics thinks that there are too many comics published and we have a ton of game delays to go into.
Also this week, James Wan is coming back to Aquaman with a new animated series, and HBO MAX gives us an update on the Green Lantern TV show. We round out the news this week with a huge talk about all the major Super Smash Brothers announcements.
Our Boss Room this week is about how the Fantastic Four and X-Men could join the MCU.
As always, we appreciate all our adventurers who listen to the show every week and we look forward to your feedback on what we discuss! (info@thesurlynerd.com!)

Kicking off video game news this week, we return to the Fallout of Fallout and what else has gone wrong for Bethesda. Loot boxes are making the news again, and videos games are bigger and better than ever.
Over in the world of entertainment, Netflix is bringing Cowboy Bebop to the small screen, but does anyone want that? Sam Raimi is taking on a new horror title and Guillermo del Toro is crafting an American remake of a foreign horror hit.
Our epilogue this week is about “grinding” as a mechanic in single player games.
