Some of My Friends Read Comics 219 – Superior Foes of Spider-Man + Earth X #6

Let’s get the elephant in the room out of the way first. We’re reading Superior Foes of Spider-Man for this episode, but Spider-Man just isn’t in this book.

is the star of this short-lived comedy series and he’s got a new Sinister Six that he’s formed with four other D-list villains (that’s right – these five make up the Sinister Six.).

Join us as we follow the lives of these losers, and stay with us as we read Earth X #6 where Chewbacca joins the X-Men maybe!

On today’s episode, we explore the rare Non-Gritty Reboot. I assure you, they exist. At the very least, one example exists: Archie. In 2015, Mark Waid and Fiona Staples brought Archie back to mainstream comics. And it’s nothing like Riverdale.

We checked out the first six issues and then continued our read of Marvels: Eye of the Camera with issue #2.
