Christmas has passed and I'm still alive, despite catching one wicked flu bug that had me bed-ridden and fuzzy headed for most of the holiday.  I'm on the comeback trail right now, and while not a hundred percent just yet, I'm up and about and on the lookout for New Year's happenings and whatnot.

In the meantime, I'd encourage you to check out my guest appearance on the Around Comics podcast with Chris Neseman and Tom Stillwell of Spinner Rack Comics.

We have a nice discussion about comics and what it's like to write for a licensed property like Xena: Warrior Princess and Army of Darkness.

Please check it out and feel free to comment below!

My coverage of the Windy City Comic Con concludes with this interview with Len Kody and Jenny Frison, the creative team behind Image/Shadowline Comics' Chicago 1968.

(Geek To Me readers may remember that Chicago 1968 received the Kryptonite Medal in the Geek Factor Olympics, and Len Kody says he couldn't have been happier!)

Thanks to the great folks of the WCCC!  It was a great event and I can't wait to see what they have in store for next year!

After discussing the nature of the current goings-on within TNA Wrestling with Jeff Jarrett, I was able to sit down with TNA Superstar and former Olympic Gold Medalist, Kurt Angle. Angle was open and frank about what he was expecting at Bound For Glory IV and gave a 'shoot' interview, saying what he truly thought about Jeff Jarrett and their upcoming match.  Kurt also gave his opinion about 'gimmick matches', the blurring of fiction and reality in TNA's television storylines, and what Jeff Jarrett should expect in their match at Bound for Glory.

When you talk to Jeff Jarrett, you learn that he is a man who has lived a remarkable life, has seen a lot of things and has been a lot of things.  He is a third generation wrestler with a storied pedigree; a multiple time champion who has held the WWF Intercontinental Championship (before the promotion changed its name to WWE), the NWA North American Heavyweight Championship, as well as the WCW World Championship.  He is the self-proclaimed 'King of the Mountain' and he is also the co-founder of TNA (Total Nonstop Action) Wrestling, a fledgling promotion that is testing its mettle against the more established and popular WWE.  Jarret himself will admit that the WWE has a '40 year' head start, which motivates him all the more in his role as promoter and pitch-man for his company.

I thought I'd celebrate my 101st blog posting by sharing a gift with all my readers.

The above animation was created by user 'etourist' on the Go Animate! web site.  I met the creator of Go Animate!, Alvin Hung, at the San Diego Comic Convention and was able to get an interview (click below):

Researching my piece on the 'SUPERDOGunderdog: Knuckle Opera for the Socially Challenged' comic art exhibit gave me an opportunity to meet some very talented folks, among them independent comic creator Jeff Zwirek (who featured prominently in the REDEYE Article)...

My Comic Con experience was drawing to a close and I had yet to speak to my last interview, Grant Morrison.  Most comic book readers know Grant from his work at Marvel (Marvel Boy) and DC (Final Crisis), but he was in town to plug his involvement in the Virgin Comics on-line feature tentatively titled 'MBX' based on The Mahabhrata, a considerably epic tome of Indian origin...
