A bold new era for Secret Origins Podcast begins. Ryan Daly welcomes three brand new guests to review the stories from DC Special Series #10. First, Sean Ross joins Ryan to discuss the first origin of the immortal Doctor Fate. Then Ryan and Terry O’Malley take the boom tube to New Genesis to learn the story of Lightray of the New Gods. Then Ryan and Donovan Morgan Grant break down the pre-Crisis/pre-Roy Thomas origin of Black Canary, and examine her live action appearance in that Birds of Prey Harley Quinn movie. Finally, Ryan explains the return of this once dead podcast and reveals the untold Secret Origin of Rhys Daly.
