Tune in as previous 2CC guest Guy Bradford comes back around for a breakdown of the newest Disney+ Marvel Cinematic Universe series Ms. Marvel. It follows Kamala Khan, a 16-year-old Pakistani-American who lives in Jersey City, prides herself on her Captain Marvel geekery, and ends up getting thrown into a journey of self-discovery involving her newfound superpowers and her mysterious family history. Additional topics that Arthur and Guy open up include monstrous depictions of British colonialism, Islamophobic and misogynistic IMDb review-bombers, the burdens of VFX teams, and the stark contrast between the wholesome optimism of the MCU and the vulgar cynicism of The Boys.

Hey everyone! As you can probably tell, I have plenty of appreciation for books, movies, and TV shows—enough that I'm willing to write up whole reviews for all of this media and spread the good (or bad) word about them to everyone else. You can find me doing the same thing over at my podcast, which is also called 2 Cents Critic, where I bring on a variety of special guests to help me do reviews and recaps of (you guessed it!) books, movies, and TV shows.
