Off Panel #363: Into the Maggottverse with Brandon Burpee
Friend of the show Brandon Burpee returns Off Panel for a rare discussion oriented on…comic book adaptations? Burpee discusses the greatness of the new Marvel Legends Maggott toy, his affinity for the character, our current feelings about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, MCU fatigue, hype levels about the recent announcements at San Diego Comic Con, thoughts on the multiverse, how the X-Men could enter the fray, DC’s status, the Wakanda Forever trailer, and more.
You can find Burpee on Twitter and Instagram.
You can download the episode directly here on Libsyn.

Thanks to the sponsor of this week’s podcast: Macroverse. Macroverse is a next generation digital comics platform, and one with an astonishing number of comics, with currently over 50 series from over 100 creators on their app with a five star rating both on Apple and Google’s app stores. Download the app and binge all their titles, and it’s just $4.99 a month to subscribe to Macroverse, with proceeds directly supporting the creators on the platform. Keep an eye on the future of Macroverse too, as 2022 is going to bring an “Epic” upgrade that offers a new level of digital collectability and more, with early adopters able to sign up for more information at their website.
Also, thanks to the other sponsor of this week’s podcast: Bad Idea! Bad Idea is…uhh…doing something, I guess. They’re still sponsoring the show, even though they’re “over.” Heavy emphasis on the quotation marks. They might be making donuts now? Baking donuts? I don’t know what’s going on.
