Shang-Chi | A film that retcons the Mandarin... and Marvel's kung-fu history

Fighting dragons, an Asian-American superhero, and Tony Leung in
fingerless gloves, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings has
blessed audiences with many gifts. But it's also offered an
opportunity for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to retcon troubling
aspects of its history (here's looking at you, Mandarin). On this
week's episode, Dave and guest host Maggie Mae Fish are joined by
Marvel visionary Gene Luen Yang for a look at Marvel's kung-fu
history, the revival of Shang-Chi, and the future of Asian-American
comic storytelling. Want to hear your Galaxy Brain take on our
