Representing, from February 8th 2010, our first interview with Paul Levitz. Even though it was only a couple of years ago, in terms of the comics industry, and DC Comics in particular, it was a lifetime ago. Listen back to an interview, just as an executive was leaving corporate life for a freelance gig, and four podcasters were embarking on their third creator interview, with someone whom they’d all admired for a very long time. We talk about Paul’s past runs on the Legion and the JSA, his post-corporate runs on Legion of Super Heroes and Adventure Comics and how to put together a really great comic room. What do you think lived up to the promise? What ended up differently? Let us know on our Facebook page, http://facebook.legionofsubstitutepodcasters.com/
