This Monday Graphic Policy Radio is back for a brand new episode. We have a very special episode with return guest Scott Kaufman, who you might know as SEK. The fall television season has begun, and with it brings numerous shows based on comic books. Debuting Monday is Fox's Gotham, a prequel of sorts exploring the city of Gotham before Batman. Instead of centering on the Dark Knight it instead revolves around James Gordon and the Gotham Police force, before colorful characters became the center of crime. It'll feature some familiar faces, including the origin of some of DC Comic's most iconic characters. Scott is the proprietor of the AV Club's Internet Film School and an associate editor at The Raw Story. He also writes for Lawyers, Guns & Money, podcasts, and is an expert on Game of Thrones.
