Welcome to the New Adventures of the Old Req Room! In this bonus episode, Mandy and Mio begin to break the format, moving away from prose fiction to discuss the latest offerings from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, arguably the most popular narrative phenomenon of the day. What can a series do that the Marvel films can't? Who tells the story behind the series, and what can they bring to the table with the serial format? Most importantly, what would it be like if Marvel used that Disney connection to replace Daniel Brühl with Werner Herzog? 

Find out in this episode, and stay tuned to the end (or skip to 50:30 ) for announcements about our upcoming Summer Semester, which begins on MAY 8!

cw: SPOILERS for WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (up to Episode 5)
