Just finished listening to the podcast and I loved it! I didn't mind it being an hour long at all. But that's easy for me since I can listen to it at work between phone calls and just pause it when I need.

I liked the quick background review of Valiant and look forward to other topics and more news in future podcasts. Good job, guys! :thumb: :clap:

The plan as of now is to release an episode every other week.

I've got half a year's worth of show ideas following that schedule.

Great job on this, guys. I can't wait to hear some more.

I think 30-35 minutes would be a good length (especially since that covers my work commute). And I'd like to hear stuff about collecting Valiants today, and some good nuggets on the Valiant creators. Maybe an interview? Guest stars?

You dudes have a good dynamic, so keep it up.

Gold pick of the week!

Thanks for the feedback! I have a show planned about collecting Valiant books. Interviews would be great, and I plan to pursue that eventually.

The next episode is going to be about the history of Valiant comics, from Voyager to Acclaim to bankruptcy to VIP vs VEI. It should be up by the end of this weekend.

Guys that was absolutely fantastic.

Well done.

Sure there were some things you could have done better, but i dont feel the need to point any of them out as im sure you have looked yourself and know exactly what to do different next time.

Maybe i can do one from the perspective of a Uk collector, retailer as i was lucky enough to pre order them when they were first announced.

cheers

The podcasts will get smoother as Doc and I get more used to working with each other and get better at taking cues from one another. Basically, the conversation will get a lot smoother.

Doc did a good job editing the podcast to where it flows more smoothly than the rough cut, but it's one of those things that improves with time.

Listening to it now, guys. Good work with very valid, well reasoned points. Not bad at all, especially for a first effort. Congrats and here's a big :thumb: to future and continued success.

Maybe one of the mods should sticky this thread so that way Doctor Solar
and/or Chiclo can remind guys like me (who tend to forget things) when new shows are up.


It's just a suggestion.

The gold icon version should only go up and up in value. Feel free to hoard them, and don't forget to get them slabbed.
