Episode #5: The Drunk History of Merlyn

Welcome to the Drunk History of Merlyn! Known in many realms and stories. In this episode we talk about Marvel’s wild wizard. Check out the full podcast below

Here’s a quick breakdown of what you’re in for:

Avalon came under the rule of Jamie Braddock. Betsy Braddock was named Captain Britain. Merlyn began his scheming against the presence of mutants, derogatorily called “witchbreed,” in Otherworld.

He orchestrated a war between the former king, Arthur Pendragon, and the new rulers. He aimed to exploit fears and prejudices against mutants. This conflict wasn’t just about power but also a strategic move against Opal Luna Saturnyne, the current Omniversal Guardian. Safe to say everything about Merlyn is banana lands.

Join us as we explore:

The shifting alliances and enmities in the political landscape of Avalon.

Merlyn’s manipulations and his aim to restore the old order.

The ideological clash between Arthur Pendragon and the “witchbreed.”

Merlyn’s deeper vendetta against Saturnyne and his quest for power.
