Only The Valiant

Sean and Sugar Sweet Lovin' are joined by Scott to talk about Thursday at San Diego Comic-Con and Scott's new indy comics publishing label, Resolution Comics.

After preview night of San Diego Comic-Con 2009, a group of us went out to the Tilted Kilt, a place with tiny skirts and beautiful waitresses.

Sean makes the rounds and talks to folks about preview night, their favorite part of the night, and what they are looking forward to at the con.

We broke from the Valiant talk for an episode to talk about comic books in general. We each chose a subject we wanted to discuss, and this prompted our conversation. You get Three topics for the low regular price of One podcast! Sean brings up Longbox digital comics, which leads into a discussion of digital comics in general. Sides are chosen. Lines are drawn. Average Joe talks about the distribution of comics, and we discuss ways that this art form that we all love could grow and flourish in the future, and get into the hands (and hearts) of the general public. Chiclo brings back the fun and guides us through some good old geeky discussion of comic book villains. We choose our favorites, and talk about this whole "anti-hero" thing that seems to be all the rage with super villains these days.

The Full Review of Deathmate, the Image-Valiant crossover.

We sit down to discuss the result of the greatest idea in comics. In the early 90s, and the height of both company's popularity, Image Comics and Valiant Comics created a crossover called Deathmate. The result speaks for itself.

Also, we debut a new segment on the show, Recent Reads, where we discuss comics, new and old, that we have recently read.

Two of us saw Watchmen, and we've got a spoiler free review of the movie, Two of us were at Wondercon, and we talk about the convention, and we discuss the world of 4001 and 4020 as it is portrayed in Magnus, Rai, and a couple other titles. Onward to the future!
