Hot off the ending of Armor Hunters, Modern Myth Maker Robert “V-Ditti” Venditti joins us for a discussion of the entire run of X-O Manowar.

This is essential listening for any fan of X-O Manowar, as we dig in to the entire story, start to finish.

First up, By The Sword, the very first arc of X-O Manowar, and the launch of the Valiant Universe. We talk about the origins of this series, and X-O Manowar, and discuss how many plot points and seeds were -ahem- planted in this first arc.

Next, Rob tells us about starting Ninjak’s story in Enter Ninjak, an idea that seemed laughable at first, then became vital, and the necessary second story arc. We talk about the character of Ninjak, and why he was chosen to be in this story, and how this arc came to be.

We wrap up the first part of this discussion with Planet Death, the climax of the first year of X-O Manowar stories, and the climax of Aric’s very first character journey. The Vine Aliens take center stage in this, as Rob tells us about this story, and some of the deeper meaning behind this arc.

Of course, this isn’t just a cut and dry discussion of the arcs. Rob drops the knowledge about X-O Manowar, the secrets of the armor and of the Vine, and a whole lot more.

Listen now, and come back in a week for part 2!
