Spinning off a concept Malcolm wrote about on the blog, Malcolm, A-Ryan, Phil, and Helen pick some of their favorite moments of graduating from one character that was easy to love to a more complex, and better one.

The original article with Malcolm's four graduated pairs is at ComradeRadio.com, along with the other podcasts of these fine hosts.

Come to our Facebook group (search "Comrade Radio") to let us know what you thought and about your own instances of moving on from a character.
