Superman had his origin told in the very first issue. Batman took six issues of Detective Comics before his backstory was relayed. Amateurs! Geek Salad has taken 99 episodes before finally giving their origin story in episode 99: Almost There! Join Andy, both Mikes, and Joe as they drink deeply from the chalice of self-congratulation and look back at the first 98 episodes of Geek Salad. The gang shares how Geek Salad came to be, some of their favorite moments, as well as moments they wish they could call "Do-over" on. They do manage to squeeze in a quick Stupid Stupid afterwards on some action figures that should never have existed, as well as taking on a TV trailer for the upcoming CW show, "The Flash".

After a bit of a break, the Geek Salad crew are back to resume their discussion of the X-Men movies with episode 98, part 2: Days of Dinklage Past. Andy, Mike G, Jim, and Joe have returned to chat about the mixed bag of Wolverine movies, and the wonder of X-Men: First Class.

In 1963, Stan Lee decided to create a new team of superheroes. Unable to come up with a unique way that they all got their powers, though, he just decided that they were just born with their abilities.

They are the subject of not just a Geek Salad episode, but a two-parter! So come join Andy, both Mikes, Jim, and Joe, as they discuss and debate their favorite X-Men comic stories, the pros and cons of the first three X-Men movies, and also have some giggles coming up with the most useless mutant abilities.

There has never been a term which has inspired more anger, hatred, and unbridled rage than 'game night'. However, showing true courage, Geek Salad is venturing into the realm of board games with episode 96: Terror Through the Lollipop Forest! Now I know everyone seems to remember board games fondly, but there are few other objects that destroy relationships, are rather perverse, and are only occasionally fun. So join Andy, both Mikes, Jim, and Joe as they bask in the joy and nostalgia. After that, the guys discuss the qualities of the new Fantastic Four casting (as well as going off on a tangent about Maguire Spider-Man vs Garfield Spider-Man), review the new Maleficent and Godzilla trailers, and then shill evrything from TV shows to internet programs. Tons of fun all around!
