Welcome to another off season tour episode of A STORM OF SPOILERS!
This week – Joanna, Dave, and Neil have spent years watching Netflix's Marvel shows in anticipation of this event: The Defenders. Fear not, spoilerphobes, you don't necessarily have to watch all the Netflix/Marvel shows like these goons to check in on this crossover. First, the trio talks about what they knew going into The Defenders and if you need to have watched all the othere series before watching the main event. Then, they talk about the eight episodes overall before spending a little time at the end coming up with wishes for the future of The Defenders characters and Marvel's Netflix universe.

Welcome to another off season tour episode of A STORM OF SPOILERS!
This week, Da7e, Joanna and Neil have all spent 13 hours in Harlem (and Seagate…and Georgia) with Netflix's newest binge-watching super-hard punching reluctant hero Luke Cage (Mike Colter who – SPOILER – everyone likes as the title character). It's also a big step forward for black represtation in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but might have some major story problems as the season goes on. Everyone ready to have media based opinons about a superhero show again? Plus, the gang can't help but speculate about what's to come for Marvel and Netflix when they get to The Defenders and beyond.

This week's closing track:
This week, Netflix has finally released their second Marvel series of the year, Jessica Jones from showrunner Melissa Rosenberg and star Kristen Ritter. David Ehrlich totally liked it, so we brought in a contrarian to face off against David's unexpected Marvel love: Vanity Fair's Joanna Robinson! Jo sticks around for an episode that is otherwise lightly about the Cate Blanchett movie Carol, considering there's a segment praising Blanchett and another inspired by Carol's score, but the meat here is Jessica Jones.
