DC Secret Files Podcast Vol. XV: DC Comics Presents Mystery in Space

The fifteenth episode of our DC SECRET FILES podcast — the show that dares to tackle DC Comics’ greatest creations in encyclopedic form! Each episode, Frank will be joined by a special guest, in this case, veteran blogger & podcrasher Professor Alan Middleton, of the Relatively Geeky Network, to cover characters and concepts from across DC’s history. Our discussion of the given property will be married to a piece of original art commissioned by DC to spotlight the same. This time around, we chat about 2004’s DC Comics Presents: Mystery in Space #1, by Elliot S! Maggin & J. H. Williams III and Grant Morrison, Jerry Ordway, & Mark McKenna, as well as a host of other talents. Plus we cover YOUR feedback! D.E.O.
