Podcasts: Examining the Marvel Crossovers of the 1980s and 1990s

Cover detail to Infinity Gauntlet #3. Art by George Perez. Marvel.

In the first part of Giant Size's deep dive into Marvel crossover events, Moises Chiullan and I cover the birth of the modern Marvel crossover (Avengers/Defenders War) all the way up to the "kitchen sink" approach offered by Contest of Champions. Part Two continues from there, staring with the landmark Secret Wars in 1984 and discussing everything -- Secret Wars II, The Evolutionary War, Atlantis Attacks, Inferno  -- released in the 80s until Acts of Vengeance puts a capper on that decade. Then it's on to the 1990s, with Starlin/Perez/Lim's Infinity Gauntlet starting things off nicely and Heroes Return ending the decade with Marvel in the worst financial trouble of their publishing history. What happens next?
