While other heroes were saving fictional metropolises, Marvel’s always thrived by putting our characters squarely in the real world. In this episode, Lorraine and Evan explore the unique, sprawling neighborhoods of the Big Apple to uncover how the Five Boroughs and their inhabitants helped illustrate the fundamental idea that the Marvel Universe reflects the world outside your window. The stakes may be impossibly high for characters like Spider-Man, Black Widow or the Fantastic Four, but their adventures unfold in a living, breathing New York City that was not only the birthplace of the Marvel Universe but is also our most important supporting character!
