Tom and Shawn play a game of “What If?” and peer into an alternate dimension where we run Marvel Comics. How would the Star Wars line grow? What could we do to fix the trade paperback catalog? Which unruly employees would get sent to H.R. Giger’s Penis Machine(tm) for a scolding? All this and more, as THE FINAL COUNTDOWN continues!

Note: This episode was recorded before the untimely death of Len Wein. We here at the Smorgasbord believe that Wein’s legacy needs no explanation: the seeds he planted continue to bear fruit today. He will be missed.
