"We’ve been charged with telling new stories for a younger generation because they deserve what we all had — a mythology to call their own." Disney's announcement of new Star Wars films, theme parks, TV shows, and other goodies have us wondering — how much is too much? Do we need a new Spider-Man, a Fantastic Four reboot, more Star Trek, and another Avengers film? Where do artistic endeavors end and commercial franchises begin? Why do these stories keep repeating, despite our fatigue, and how do we keep them relevant? Special guest, geeky photographer and host of the On Taking Pictures podcast Bill Wadman.

Episode 66: Multiversity, Multiversity VS. Watchmen, Top 5 Parallel Universes
“What if these comic books are bleeding through from parallel worlds?” We give a spoiler-free review of Multiversity, the Eisner-nominated series from DC Comics! How is this Grant Morrison project the ultimate exploration of the past, present, and future of the DC multiverse? What is Multiversity saying about comics as art? Is it necessary reading for all or love letter to fans of comic books? In the INFINITE CROSSOVER CHAMBER, we debate Multiversity versus Watchmen. Things get wibbly wobbly as we explore our favorite parallel universe stories. 0:00 - 26:19: Multiversity (non-spoilers); 26:20 - 42:44: INFINITE CROSSOVER CHAMBER: Multiversity VS. Watchmen; 42:45 - 1:04:37: Top 5 Parallel Universes.
