THE FANDOM ZONE 288: "Maya" Is Up!

 
"They're in my blood, in my heart. I'm a part of them and they're a part of me. I'm their legacy, not yours."
-- Echo/Maya Lopez to The Kingpin/Wilson Fisk, Echo -- "Maya"

Hello again, everyone! DJ Nik and I are back for another new episode of The Fandom Zone Podcast! This time, we discuss "Maya," the final episode of the Marvel Cinematic Universe TV series Echo, featuring Alaqua Cox as Echo/Maya Lopez, Vincent D'Onofrio as Kingpin/Wilson Fisk, Tantoo Cardinal as Chula Battiest, and Andrew Howard as Zane!

In this episode, DJ Nik and I talk about things like Inter Milan coming back to beat Rome, "Maya" being a decent finale but not a satisfying one, Echo feeling like it's missing an episode, Maya's fast-forward transition from criminal to hero, some comics background on the "Mayor Fisk" storyline in Daredevil, Young Maya lying about hitting a sapsucker with a rock, finally learning more about Maya's mother Taloa, the sapsucker being Maya's spirit animal, Skully surprising Chula with her sewing machine that he kept for years, Chula telling the Kingpin that she learned sign language for Maya, the Roxxon easter egg, Maya being reunited with her dead mother, Echo's powers being similar to Shazam's, Maya finally embracing her culture at the Powwow, our being concerned that the powwow was going to be trashed by Kingpin and his goons, the Kingpin having a temper tantrum, Biscuits' big hero moment with the monster truck, Chula and Bonnie also tapping into the family superpowers, Echo trying to heal the Kingpin's anger instead of beating the crap out of him, the mid-credits scene where the Kingpin mulls over running for Mayor of New York City, wondering if Echo will join the Defenders, our favorite quotes of the episode, new Fandom Zone Fanmail from Jesse Jackson, waiting for our next comic book TV series to discuss, and more!
