At the Marvel: Your Universe panel, i was able to not only praise the panelist for putting out two great books at the same time the Iron Man movie hit, but ask them why we got two very very very different books on the stands that were as far away as possible from the Incredible [...]
After the Punisher: War Zone panel I ran out into the hall to get out the word that yes, it will kick ass. I heard them before I saw them, just a loud series of clicks and whirrs and shouts and this little knot of people slowly moved down the hall like a horror movie [...]
I highly enjoyed my tome at WonderCon this year, set in drizzly San Fransisco and proving that last year’s joy wasn’t just a one time thing. I got to meet my awesome colleagues in the comic blog-o-business, from Blog@Newsarama to the amazing David Brothers from the 4th Letter. I got to sit in [...]
Okay, Iron Man.
It’s the only goddamned Marvel panel at WonderCon this year and by hell or high water, I was going to be there.
Well, after both hell and high water I found myself a little on the late side in a gigantic auditorium with Jon Favreau and about 300 other people. A lot of [...]

My laptop ran out of batteries yesterday along with my camera [...]
Revealed at the Marvel Booth, the Mark I Iron Man armor designed by Stan Winston.
Slick.
Oh my GOD.
I’ve been seeing customers and fellow bloggers (HEY BULLY!) … and a very important person with very important news.
I have to say something or I am going to explode with the secret, but the info won’t be officially released until around 4 today.
But I need to say this: ONE OF MY PULL [...]
Quickie Update: I just asked the Joe Quesada panel if people check in regarding character continuity when people use characters from comic to comic (oh sayyyy…. Kingpin! Showing up in one book, going to Japan, used in two other books between that one published later, and on and on). I tried to phrase it well, [...]
Convention Zen
I sit in my car, the husband driving (sadly, he won’t let me call him Happy Hogan as he’s both chauffer and bpdyguard this trip), listening to Sirius channel 22 (1st Wave!) and anticipating the Big One.

The San Diego Comic Con is like nothing else on Earth and [...]
