Megacon 2008- Day 3!
There’s not really much to report on for the last day of Megacon. I spent most of my day wandering around picking up some good deals on trades and small press comics and going to a few panels on how to write for - and break into - comics, none of which I’ll probably [...]

Megacon 2008 - Day 2!
So far, I’ve learned three essential con-going lessons.
First, it’s better to bring a con buddy. It’s possible that flying solo is benefiting me in the sense that I’m getting to go to the panels that I want to go to and the only compromises I have to make are because of time, but I’ve [...]

Megacon 2008 - Day One
I apologize if this is a bit short on detail, but I spent most of the day in an “OMG FIRST CON!” daze and now I’m just flat out exhausted. For what it’s worth, the day was short on news and more full of me just wandering around checking stuff out.

AJ and The RJP (That’s your new name, man. Learn it, love it, put it on your business cards) were the only ones to answer my plea for opinions. AJ thought that I should devote a post to each issue, with the exception of ones that I have no real reaction to, for your [...]

Y The Last Man Project - All Your Opinions Are Belong To Me
I’ve tried several times to get into Y: The Last Man, but every time I realized that I had just missed out on too many issues and didn’t really grasp all the nuances of what was going on. Finally I decided that I’d just wait until the series ended and pick up all the [...]

Crackerbob’s Convention Tour 2008 - Megacon!
It has now been confirmed - I’ll be starting off my convention tour of 2008 with Megacon, right here in sunny Orlando, FL.
And, really, this will be the ONLY stop on my convention tour of 2008. Cons cost money, kids, and since I’m shopping for a house to move, possibly may be changing jobs [...]

For the Love of Reviews
I’m still very far behind in my reading stack - almost a month behind in some spots - to the point that I’m seriously considering dropping a few titles and just picking up the trade so that I can keep up with some other titles.
I tell you this to explain why none of the titles [...]
