All this and more in another fun filled Geekville Radio
Doctor Strange has hit the cinemas by storm across the globe. Train and Seth return to talk the movie, but also give an in-depth look at the comic history of Stephen Strange. You can listen to the show above and below.
The first appearance of Doctor Strange in Strange Tales #110
Strange first appeared in the anthology series Strange Tales in 1963, before taking over the title entirely a few years later. While he may not be the most popular character, he has grown to be one of the most influential ones on the entire Marvel Universe. Train, a lifelong fan, talks much of the history and the diverse characters in Strange’s lore.
In current news, Seth goes over the impressive numbers the feature film has taken in. At the time of recording the movie had grossed $85 million dollars domestically, and $240 million internationally. Which totals $325 million in one weekend. It’s also the 14th straight #1 opening for a MCU title.
The second half of the show is devited to a detailed (that means SPOILERS!) review of the movie starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Tilda Swinton, and Mads Mikkelson. If you missed some of the Easter Eggs, or if something in the movie might not have made sense at first viewing, Set and Train have you covered.

Our first David Tennant story is quite a doozy! Silence In The Library is one of the more popular stories of Tennant’s run.
In the story, The Doctor and Donna answer a distress call in a barren space library. Soon after, they are joined by archeologists (including the debuting fan favorite River Song) to investigate. Once a hideous species is uncovered, things start turning deadly!
Join Mark and Seth as they bring their signature blend of knowledge and humor as they examine the modern David Tennant classic Silence In The Library! You will need a copy of the episode to sync up with the commentary.
