Episode 10: Interview with Bryan Q. Miller







I had the great pleasure of speaking with Mr. Bryan Q. Miller concerning his run on Batgirl. We discuss what it is like to work with Lee Garbett, the supporting cast of Batgirl, the villains, Stephanie working with other heroes, and we even briefly discuss Cassandra Cain. All this and more, plus listener questions. I really enjoyed speaking with Mr. Miller, and I learned a great deal!

Ask Writer Bryan Q. Miller a Question

Ita vero! (Yes, indeed!) Mr. Bryan Q. Miller has agreed to come on BtO! He has also kindly agreed to answer questions from you, the listeners. Please follow the following guidelines:

1. NO questions about Smallville. Mr. Miller has already told me that he cannot discuss anything Smallville related. This is a Batgirl podcast anyway! ;)

2. NO rambling questions. As this is the first guest I'd like it to be as problem-free as possible and to not take up a lot of Mr. Miller's time. Please make the questions short, sweet, and to the point!

3. LIMIT OF 3 QUESTIONS! I love answering your questions but I don't want to scare away our guest or make this a taxing event. I also don't want to have to delete questions. Make the list no longer than 3 questions! (In the event of an overload of questions, I do reserve the right to edit the number allowed per person.)

Thanks in advance, friends! I'm quite excited! Let's make Mr. Miller feel welcome!

Go here to post a question, or e-mail me!

Fly on, Babs lovers!

Episode 7.5: The Wonder Woman Show

In this non-Babs related episode, I, along with special guest George Berryman, add commentary to Wonder Woman, the 2009 DC animated movie. Synch this episode with your DVD and you can follow along with us!

There is some great discussion before and after the movie not only concerning Wonder Woman and her mythos, but also the great potential for Batgirl: Year One the animated movie.

In this extremely depressing episode, I announce a contest to create a new Batgirl to Oracle Intro/Opening, answer a few questions, and give a moment of silence for my recently-deceased external hard drive. I review World's Finest Comics #176, Detective Comics #384, Detective Comics #385, Batgirl #8, and Red Robin #10. I apologize for the bare quality of the episode, I did the best with what I had.

In this momentous first episode, I thank the people who were most helpful to me, talk about myself, answer the question "Why Babs?," discuss my expectations for the show, Batgirl news, reviews of Detective Comics #359 and Batgirl Vol 2. #1 and my literature recommendation.

Don't worry...I'm working on correcting the wind in the next episode.
