When you walk in for the firs time to the NYCC, you are overwhelmed by all that there is to do. First Person Shooter Video games, adult super heroes with adult problems, villains, and the zombies, oh the amount of zombies, are scattered all over the floor. Between all of this Comic...
Yesterday, I was treated like a stupid girl. I’m still fuming about it. It’s not just because I know that I’m not a stupid girl, it’s because the person who did it was a male co-worker who has known me for almost ten years. He’s probably twenty years my senior and has...
It seems one of the bigger challenges of creating all ages comics is hitting on stuff that will interest kids without talking down to them. But one look at Action Lab Entertainment’s booth at SDCC (Table 2202 in the Independent Press Pavillion), and you can tell this is not a worry the...

Philadelphia. Driving in, you are immediately hit with the smell of cheese steaks. Your thoughts stray back to elementary school and learning about Independence Hall and Ben Franklin. Your more adult self thinks of Rocky. But sometimes there are other reasons to come to Philadelphia. Sometimes there is a different kind of...
What do Stan Lee, William Shatner, and cast members from the hit TV series “Charmed” and “Firefly” have in common. No, they were not all guest stars on the Big Bang Theory, although that would not be a terrible guess. No, they are all special guests at this year’s Wizard World Philadelphia...
One of my favorite days of the year is coming up next week. On Saturday, May the Fourth (Star Wars Day, too!), it will be Free Comic Book Day. Participating local comic book stores will be hosting events and giving out special editions of a variety of comics, all for the effort...

The one question I can count on each year from my kids is, “Can we go to Comic-Con?” Followed by “What is Comic-Con like?” So this year I took to the show to help you determine if you should take your kids to the show and if you do what to expect....
They say, “quality is better than quantity,” and it is beyond true. However, when you have both, now that is a winning combination. This year’s NYCC saw DC’s booth had big name comics, new products, and aside for a breakdown in communication with guest signings, had an overall great showing.
