First and foremost, This Week In Marvel would like to acknowledge the current state of unrest in the United States, and to express our commitment to solidarity with the Black community.

In addition to the latest Marvel news, this week's episode features a statement of support from Ryan, Lorraine, and James, an honest conversation with rapper/actor Utkarsh Ambudkar, and hope for the future as the hosts discuss the Marvel women of color heroes who inspire them.
