[Beware Cyclops]

Were you somewhere near India?

Closer to India than a lot of other places in the world!

Looking at Google Maps, I was within 1,000 miles of the Indian border.

No drinking + 1000 miles to India + can't look at Twitter feed ÷ where the hell is my map = UAE??

ENJOY YOUR NO PRIZE!

Yup, UAE it was. Dubai, specifically.

We've been teasing this one for the last week, and it's finally done:



We are thrilled to release this conversation. We talk with Josh about the entire run of Harbinger, getting his usual insights, humor, and understanding.

Our conversation was so long that we had to break it up into two episodes, and each still runs well over an hour. In the first part, we talk about Omega Rising, Renegades, Harbinger Wars, and Perfect Day.

Enjoy!

I can't wait to hear this. Recording it was amazing. There were a few times where I was speechless........

This is a MUST listen.

In the middle of the Perfect Day portion of the conversation... this has been really great, guys. Can we get this treatment for X-O and A&A? Would love to hear V-Ditti or FVL work their way through the entire run. Or Kindt with Unity and Rai when they get that far in, perhaps?

[Keith]

Oh crap, and then it ends right there with a "wait till next week?"

[Dr. Solar]

We'd love to do more of these sorts of retrospectives. This one was a ton of fun.

And yes, sorry you have to wait till next week. The second part is as long as the first, it would have been way too long of an episode to release all together.

[Elveen]

V Ditti is down for an xo one.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Thank you OTV gang. This is now my favourite episode, can't wait for part 2. Seriously, Thank you guys for this awesome "balls deep" conversation with the best "character" writer in current comics, imho.

Thank you to Joshua Dysart for these 2 years of stories, for the fact that every single issue of Harby was a comic that would stay in my head for days, weeks, months, now years. And if we're going honest, THANK YOU for the tears, laughs and WTF moments that your story gave us. Thanks for making me believe that this art form can have room to improve yet, if the industry just focus on what really matters.

And honestly, looking back, if it weren't for those preview pages on the back of X-O #1, I probaly would not be the VEI fan that I am today. I was shocked (in a good way) on how real and honest and ballsy that comic promised to be. I jumped in the next month, not because I wanted to read about a group of teen kids going against a baddie, but because those preview pages alone made me care for the characters and the story about to be told. It was not like X-O#1 itself, where I was excited because it sounded "awesomely cool"- being a new fan, and TOTALLY new to these properties, you might guess that "out-of-time barbarian in an alien suit" is awesome as a concept still today.

Harbinger #0-25 is one of my favourite runs in comics ever, that's not up for debate. I even unintentionally made my gf started quoting the BM#0 issue because we read it together (I forced her, pratically ) and she enjoyed it a lot to the point that, since then, she asks me what happened to the monk, after all. .

I am downloading now the last 2 I haven't listened to.

Really enjoyed the SDCC eps

I can't wait to hear the Dinesh and Dysart eps.... and a vditti one in the future, weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Bone-A-Fach-ee]

Just got up to the Harbinger Wars section. Good stuff fellas. It's cool how open Dysart is about everything that has already happened, and able to keep such a tight lid on future happenings. Looking forward to listening to the rest of this ep, and apparently the next one too!

[MarkRoseHFX]

the SDCC coverage was great, the Baron and Bone-A-Fach-ee were fantastic guests. Was also really cool the other board members on there

the first part of the Dysart interview blew me away, it's my new fav OTV ep . i can't wait to hear the second part.

[MarkRoseHFX]

V Ditti is down for an xo one.

So, you gonna be a little more prepared for V-Ditti than you were for Dysart?

[ilzuccone]

Just listened to the sdcc coverage up through most of of the dysart interview.

You guys have really stepped it up. The podcast was alway great, but dang you stepped it UP.
Gracias

For those of you that want to get a little more Indy cred, I released a "Small Talk" interview with Steve Bryant, the creator of Athena Voltaire. We talk about the upcoming hardcover Compendium of Athena Voltaire, the allure of pulp stories and why making comics is great.
