#213 – I Was Wrong About Wonder Man
Episode 213
Wednesday, 11 February, 2026
I need to start this episode by saying something that doesn’t come easily for me: I was wrong. I underestimated Wonder Man. I almost skipped it entirely — not because of the cast, not because of the concept, but because of the way Marvel released it. And that nearly cost me one of the most emotionally grounded, character-driven stories the MCU has ever put on Disney+. This is not a recap episode. This is a reflection and appreciation piece. In this episode of Marvel Maniac, I break down why Wonder Man works so powerfully — from Simon Williams’ struggle with control, identity, and ambition, to Trevor Slattery’s quietly devastating redemption arc, to the show’s sharp commentary on art, ego, and being seen. We talk about why the Doorman episode reframes the entire series, why the callback episode is one of Marvel TV’s best hours, and how the finale proves Marvel can still deliver something restrained, human, and special when it wants to. Wonder Man isn’t loud. It isn’t flashy. It doesn’t beg you to care. It earns it. And by the end, it reminded me exactly why I fell in love with Marvel storytelling in the first place. 💬 Join the Marvel Maniac Discord Talk MCU, episode reactions, theories, and more in our growing community:👉 https://discord.com/invite/DckvDCA9NS ⭐ Enjoying the show?
