Just heard the new episode and it was amazing. I really didn't think I'd find this one very interesting, but I found a lot of the inside info about how the comics were done to be intriguing. I also liked hearing about all the stuff happening at the end of the Shooter days. Can't wait to hear the second half.

Personally, I think it was easily the best one yet, and I have listened to them all. Lots of good stuff. 
One of the neatest things I found out was that Janet was involved with Texas Comics, a company that published one book (as far as I know), the Justice Machine Annual. Had no idea she was involved with that.

Great work
I don't have time to post on here that often, but I do have about eight hours in the car every week so I really like the podcast.
The past two really would be interesting to anyone who cares about comics history, not just Valiant. Chiclo really seemed like an expert on the dead universe and then you just had an awesome interview on the last one.
I didn't realize it was a two part interview so I was actually pumped at the end when you said it would be continued later.
I am a graphic artist/illustrator myself but I didn't start until '97 just after everything had become 100% digital (actually in high school I did a few composite layouts). I love hearing about color and printing from before then, it really seems like a task.
If you speak to JJ again tell her that other illustrators/designers and valiant fans really appreciated her interview.
Also the Unity podcast was just awesome, even the off topic x-men and secret wars stuff really was relevant because you could compare and contrast influences. Great work by all 3 on that one.

Glad you are enjoying the podcasts. We have had a stretch of pretty good ones.

BTW, from one talentless hack to another, I really enjoyed this episode.
