Marvel Ultimate Alliance with Perry Constantine (Superhero Cinephiles, Japan on Film)

This week on play comics we ask ourselves what happens if you you can’t decide what you want to make a game about. Should you just give up? Should you really dig into your soul and decide what you’re super passionate about? Should you look and see if there’s any other related media coming out that you can tie this game into? Or should you act like you’re at the end of five different boxes of sugary cereal and justice dump the mall into a single bowl and see what happens?

There’s certainly one thing that I made my mind up about this one, and that’s how Perry Constantine from Superhero Cinephiles and Japan on Film needed to come by and help me make sure that I kept everything straight here. And it’s a good thing too because with more playable character than I want to count spread out across 7 consoles upon release and a few more as back catalogs were taken advantage of it would have been really easy to miss something here.

So was there an actual story for this game? Or was it just a giant excuse to squeeze in as many tidbits as they could so the other kids would think they’re cool? You’ll have to listen to find out!

Learn such things as:

• Is it possible to have too many characters to pick from?
• What happens when there’s an actually good original story?
• Are there any deep cuts that didn’t make it into this one?
• And so much more!

You can find Perry on Bluesky @percivalconstantine.com, Threads @perconstantine,  catch some of his writing on Sub Stack or Patreon, or his own podcasts Superhero Cinephiles and Japan on Film,

021 - Doctor Doom

I'm a sucker for the "zoomed in closeup" trading card shot, but something about Doom's nose here throws the whole thing off. It seems disproportionately small.

Card 1-2099: Doom 2099

The insert subset for this series features an assortment of the Marvel 2099 characters on a red foil background.

Always love a DYk fact that is a question.

The full 90s-riffic Fantastic Four page! Working Four Freedoms Plaza into the background is a nice touch.

I still firmly believe that there’s only one person who should play Doctor Doom in the MCU: 80 year old Geraldine Chaplin

Another unpopular run that I really enjoyed was #FantasticFour by #SteveEnglehart and #KeithPollard. In this run, #MrFantastic and #InvisibleWoman leave the team, replaced by #Crystal and #MsMarvel, with #TheThing leading the team. Drama unfolds As The Thing struggles to keep the team together while dealing with the fact that his long time girlfriend #AliciaMasters married the #HumanTorch, Ms. Marvel deals with the mental repercussions of a recent traumatic event, a recently married Human Torch realizing his feelings for Crystal are alive and well and Crystal herself looking to move on from her own marriage with #Quicksilver, while also harboring feelings for the Torch. And this is JUST the first couple of issues of the run!
