Episode 125: Angelica Jones (feat. Josh Cornillon & Holly Raymond) — Part One: A Firestar is Born
<p>In Episode 125 of CEREBRO, the SEASON FOUR FINALE, Connor and returning guests Josh Cornillon (Did You Hear About Mimi Green? — <a href="http://tinyurl.com/mimigreenpreorder" rel="nofollow">preorder now!</a>) and Dr. Holly Raymond of Temple University microwave themselves stupid with Angelica Jones, the functional Firestar! Created by NBC executives for the 1981 Saturday morning cartoon Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, Firestar spent the next 40-odd years desperately trying to find a place in the Earth-616 continuity of Marvel Comics.</p><p>While she had notable runs with the New Warriors and the Avengers in the 90s, Angelica never really made her way to the X-Men until the 21st century, first in Jason Aaron's Amazing X-Men, but then — a lot more explosively — under writer Gerry Duggan during the First Krakoan Age. After winning the second X-Men Vote, Firestar became a member of the flagship team, only to find herself entangled in a gruesome mission during the fall of the Krakoan state: infiltrating the anti-mutant genocidal apparatus Orchis to dismantle it from within.</p><p>She's more interesting than ever now, in my opinion, and we're excited to dig into her whole crazy continuity with you!</p><p>The CEREBRO character file on Firestar begins at 1:29:44.</p><p><strong>This is Part One of Two. </strong>The second half is coming soon! When it drops, <a href="http://patreon.com/cerebrocast" rel="nofollow">Patreon</a> subscribers will also get exclusive access to the combined Extended Tidings of Joy Mix.</p><p>(Content Advisory: Angelica's story includes child abuse, animal abuse, torture, genocide, and sexual violence.)</p><br/><br/>Our Sponsors:<br/>* Check out Mood and use my code CEREBRO for a great deal: https://mood.com<br/><br/><br/>Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a><br/><br/>Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

Interlude: Cyclops vol. 4 (feat. Alex Paknadel)
<p><span>Hey there, Zalagang! Today we've got something I haven't done in a while: a conversation about a brand new comic. I'm joined by Marvel writer Alex Paknadel to discuss his new </span>Cyclops <span>miniseries. This is ostensibly an interview about the first issue — and we do get there, I promise! </span></p><p><span>As is often the case with CEREBRO, though, we ended up having a lot of fun and going for a few hours in a broader dialogue I found really interesting. Here we chat about his earlier miniseries </span>Sentinels<span>, soap opera logic versus the mythic scale of the Classics, the heavy regard of fan expectation, the enduring appeal of Cyclops as a character, the tragedy of Robyn Hanover, writing the Reavers in the looksmaxxing era, fandom's own evolution on social media, the innovations of the First Krakoan Age, my own difficulties with the current line of post-Krakoa books, what we feel X-Men is really about at the end of the day, and much much more. </span></p><p><span>I'd like to do occasional long-form chats like this between the research-heavy official CEREBRO episodes, as it's somewhat more manageable for me to get something like this out quickly. Let me know what you think!</span></p><p><span>Meanwhile, my debut comic DID YOU HEAR ABOUT MIMI GREEN? launches from Dark Horse this May. Please use </span><a href="http://tinyurl.com/mimigreenpreorder" rel="nofollow">the publisher's website</a><span> to find your local comic shop and preorder! I will be eternally grateful.</span></p><br/><br/>Our Sponsors:<br/>* Check out Mood and use my code CEREBRO for a great deal: https://mood.com<br/><br/><br/>Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a><br/><br/>Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>
