We also have a BK’s Bullets closing our Amazon’s Attack discussion. Bent shares his views and we share ours. We also look at the Epilogue threads and why we think it is important to where things are headed.

NOTE: Jim is on this episode via Skype because this was recorded after the hard drive crash.  We experimented with his headset mic this time for the first part and switched to the phone. We were deliberately checking the quality differences in sound to see which works best when we have to do this in the future. In the past we have only used his phone. If there are any sound quality differences from normal, this is why. We’re playing around to determine the best sound experience when we aren’t recording in studio. Thanks for your patience.

Raging Bullets Special Report Episode 1: A DC Comics Fan Podcast

Special Report 1: Jim and I intended to record directly from the NYCC.
 We unfortunately spent all day and evening Friday in the Atlanta
Airport. (Yes, we live in Ohio and there is no reasonable explanation
why Air Tran trapped us here.  We decided that we promised you some
"live" content from the con.  While we can't deliver you direct con
reports at the moment, we can deliver you a special review of Brave
and the Bold #1.

We also recorded some special segments from the NYCC for you.  We chat
with Raph and Juan from Geeks United about the news from the DC NATION
PANEL on Friday.  Jim and Sean also discuss the DC Panel from Saturday
and some surprising news on DC Countdown and where DC is headed over
the next few months. (Special thanks to Ian Levenstein of Comic Timing
for his help with organizing Raph and Juan's help on the panel we
missed while stuck at the airport.)

We will be discussing the Minx, Vertigo, Wildstorm and CMX news on
future episodes as short segments over the next couple of weeks.  We
hope you enjoy our coverage of the NYCC.

NOTE: We are recording this episode on an Iriver in an airport.  While
there is some airport background noise, we hope you enjoy the content.
