Derek "Divine" is an annoying Fanboy, pure and simple. The neighbor of NBC studios started with comic books in high school. Uh-huh, around the same time we all put them away. Ever well-rounded, Double D's fully enthralled with movies of all kinds (Pulp FRICTION anyone?), TV, theatre, music and sports. Better yet, Divine has gone to SDCC for over 20-years, and now finds himself helping New Nerds find their way into the great hall. That be Hall H, foo's. Follow @uncledarryl37
