The 90s Never Happened

The 90s Never Happened

Ever wonder if your favorite 90s comic books hold up? Are you worried nostalgia is clouding your memories? Do you want to hear a trio of dorks discuss this? If you bothered answering those hypothetical questions at all, The 90s Never Happened is the podcast for you! Join Daniel Aegan as he drags Jude Graves and Bree Rose through a decade mired in slop. Find out if the big guns and bigger breasts of 90s comics stood the test of time. Will Jude’s comic virginity save her from a decade out to harm her mind? Will Bree be able to contain her giggles during any given episode? Will Dan be able to hold it all together when his co-hosts can’t go a minute without making things feel hot and wrong? The 90s are back, and no one is happy about it. Join the crew and relive events like Maximum Carnage, Fatal Attractions, that time Wolverine ripped off Thing’s face, and more action than you can handle. This will be your only warning.

Welcome to The 90s Never Happened, your one-stop podcast for everything you wanted to know about 90s comics but are too afraid to ask! Either that or you just don't care.

If Johnny Cochran were alive today, he'd have a thing or two to say about this week's episode. Since he's gone, Dan, Jude, and Bree are stuck lamenting over the second nuttiest trial of the nineties. That's right, it's the Trial By Jury three-issue arc from Amazin...

This week,  Dan, Jude, and Bree continue their discussion on Peter Parker's pernicious parents.

Our crack team of comic book readers and pretend experts will get to the bottom of it...

Welcome to The 90s Never Happened, your one-stop podcast for everything you wanted to know about 90s comics but are too afraid to ask!   Because Jude and Bree demanded it, we're talking about Peter Parker's Parents and their 90s resurrection. Who are Mary and Richard Parker? Where have they been all these years? Why is Peter being such a little bitch about it? We answer those questions (probably) and more as we take a deep dive int...

Jude is missing for "reasons", so our coverage of Maximum Carnage is once again put off for another week.

Like Spidey, Maximum Carnage is kicking our asses. So, this week, Dan, Jude, and Bree decide to take a break from it to hear some lore. Back in 1993, Dan was punched in the stomach in sixth grade because of an issue of Maximum Carnage. Which one was it? How did Dan cope with the punching? Will Jude ...

Dan, Jude, and Bree continue their reading of 1993's Spider-Man crossover Maximum Carnage with parts 6-9(lol). The sheer amount of new hero intros exhaust the crap out of us, but we persevere to discuss how Mary Jane is the real hero, Spider-Man is wrong about pretty much everything, and how the writers were venting their frustration in the narrative. 

Programming update: At the end of this episode, we give Maximum Carnage parts 10...

Dan, Jude, and Bree get tits-deep in Maximum Carnage as they explore parts 2-5 of the 1993 Spider-Man crossover featuring too many heroes and villains to list in a podcast episode description. What does our gang think about the continuing saga of good versus evil? Will Team Spidey or The Carnage Family reign supreme? Did Mary Jane just pick up that pack of cigarettes?!

Suggested reading is Maximum Carnage parts 2-5 in Web of Spider...

Our podcast is off and swinging like a certain man with spider-like abilities! On this, our second episode, we set up our first big storyline with Maximum Preamble.
