Age of Reptiles: The Journey #1
Ricardo Delgado (W/A) and Jim Campbell (C) Dawn breaks over a sprawling forest in Cretaceous North America—a dawn far colder than its peaceful, forest-dwelling herbivores are used to. The seasons are changing, and it’s time for the able-bodied to migrate south. But the trek is a dangerous one even when massive herds band together, for while there is safety in numbers, numbers also draw attention, and the carnivores are moving in! This journey may not last long when the first hunter arrives, a ferocious tyrannosaurus rex who has her sights set on a young triceratops!

When supernatural artifacts from the Homelands begin surfacing in the modern world, it falls to Cinderella, Fabletown’s best kept (and best dressed) secret agent to stop the illegal trafficking.

I had a lot of fun, hopefully the next time you guys go live, I wont have to work and therefore have a reliable internet connection. Despite having choppy video on my end, the chat was a lot of fun.
Congratulations on reaching this milestone… And a good episode too. Enjoyed it!
Hey congratulations as always. Relistened this morning, when I was signing off I meant to do The First Doctor’s farwell to Susan, so sorry if it came off weird.
NEIN! I thought the recording was today!!!
P.S. 1 in 10 adults Americans read comic books? Really!? I’m shocked 1 in 10 Americans read at all ;-)
DanHunter-
Thanks for introducing me to the awesomeness of Spaced!
And Stephen, you don’t need to torrent it; it’s free on hulu. Every episode so far.
love that Edmund Fitzgerald bit at the end.
What’s odd to me is how Stephen insists that Dick and Tim and Damien are all named “Wayne.”
Party on Garth, Party on Batfamily
