About this episode

The episode discusses the Dark Crisis event in the DC Universe, featuring guest insights and critiques.

DCOCD is the DC Comics events podcast, where we look at every DC event in chronological order from Crisis on Infinite Earths to... we're not quite sure yet. Every Crisis has been building to this new Crisis, and what’s different about this one? It’s Darker than the others!!! The Justice League are dead and the Great Darkness is finally making it’s move on the DC Universe through it’s possessed pawn Deathstroke. And what’s up with Pariah? He’s stopped crying and it looks like the worst news for our heroes. Paul is joined by first-time guest DOUG ADAMSON and Podcasting’s MICHAEL BAILEY to find a path through the darkness to discuss, critique, praise and ultimately rate and rank this event. This event is led by JOSHUA WILLIAMSON and DANIEL SAMPERE.
