As usual, the man who is your master now went one on one with the audience, answering rapid fire questions about everything Dark Horse Comics (oh, and some other stuff, too). Read More...

If it’s Friday at San Diego Comic-Con, it must be time for DC’s New 52 panel! Well, this year anyway, as editors Bob Harras and Bobbie Chase, and creators David Finch, Adam Glass, Dan Jurgens, Jimmy Palmiotti, Gail Simone, Rob Liefeld, Scott Lobdell, and Scott Snyder hit the stage to talk about all of DC’s upcoming books.
First book up was Simone’s Batgirl #0, which focuses on the surprising origin of Batgirl in the New 52. Then, Batman #0, which Snyder said presents a very different take on Batman - as well as teases for what’s coming up in the next year.The next thing Snyder plugged was Swamp Thing #0, and also teased that in the upcoming Rotworld crossover you’ll get to see, “horrible, dead versions of your favorite characters.” Read More...

A decisive battle has been fought at Blackwater, but The War of the Five Kings is far from over. With that in mind, HBO’s Game of Thrones was out in full force at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, with cast, crew and more ready to chat about the highly anticipated third Season, which will adapt the first half (loosely) of George R.R. Martin’s “A Storm of Swords.” Oh, and if you think you know what’s coming, book readers? You know nothing.
The panel - like last year - was moderated by Martin himself, who started off by apologizing that the Producers couldn’t be at the panel, because they’re filming season three. He also apologized that, “My nephew who does the boobies,” also couldn’t be there, referring to the SNL sketch from this past season. Then it was tie for a recap reel from Season 2, and let me tell you: Game of Thrones needs to be shown on a movie screen regularly because it looked - and sounded - fantastic... Particularly the Battle of Blackwater, which sent a shockwave through the audience. Read More...

If there's a sound of someone winning San Diego Comic-Con, it could probably have been heard at Vertigo Comics panel, where the publisher shocked the audience with the announcement of a brand new Sandman mini-series by writer Neil Gaiman, and artist J.H. Williams, III. Oh, and some other stuff happened, we guess, so here's the full recap.
On the mega-sized were Vertigo Editor Karen Berger, writer/artists Jeff Lemire and Mike Allred, artists Rafael Albequerque, Dustin Nguyen, and Mark Buckingham, writers Dan Abnett, Bill Willingham, and Scott Snyder, and Editors Shelly Bond and Will Cunningham. Berger kicked things off by talking about American Vampire - and as mentioned by writer Scott Snyder earlier on in the day, this is the halfway point of the series, with some big changes coming up.

Friday morning of SDCC 2012 opened up in Ballroom 20 with a packed to capacity crowd excited to see... Well, the Firefly panel later on that day. But before that, there was the equally anticipated Community Panel*. With creator Dan Harmon leaving the show, and new showrunners on board, there were a lot of questions about what’s coming up for the residents of Greendale. Luckily, we got the answers for you, live.
First though, the panel kicked up with a mega-mix music video announcing that the show is moving to Friday, to the tune of Katy Perry’s “Last Friday Night**,” and mixing tons of footage from the last season. Did the audience laugh and cheer? Pop pop! And I don’t know if this has been announced before, but the show is premiering on October 19th on NBC. Then, enter the cast and new producers to massive cheers... And the first question was whether the newbies would destroy the show: Read More...
