61: The Mummy (1999)
Manage episode 410206270 series 3297018
This week we’re coming to you LIVE from Toronto ComicCon where we’re joined by writer and graphic novelist, Stephanie Cooke (she/her), to discuss her favorite 90s adventure classic; THE MUMMY! We talk about the unmatched charm of Brendan Fraser, the joy of a good swashbuckler, the horror of murder scarabs, how the action-adventure genre was usurped by Marvel, and how some ancient monsters just want to be loved. Plus, the evolution of the tan-pant wearing swashbucklers, how the Mummy emulates Indiana Jones and how modern storytelling carries on a conversation from the artists that came before.
Produced by Andrew Ivimey as part of The From Superheroes Network.
