SDCC: Tournament of Spectacle, Logic, and Strawberry Milkshakes!

Saturday night, post-convention floor hours, pre-party time, in the YouTube Lounge on 7th St., nerds from around the world (okay, more like a lot of die hard fans from L.A. and a few people from other parts of the U.S.) gathered in the limited seating, ample standing room zone by the cramped stage to witness …

SDCC Day 2: Dead shred a rather genitive Game!

Hordes of Hall Knights and Con Zombies earned their grass-stains yesterday with the return of two of last year’s most popular Comic Con panels, AMC’s The Walking Dead and HBO’s Game of Thrones. Thing is, the quality of these enormously popular panels exchanged a surprisingly ‘lil flip-flop. Dead spread a thick infection of electricity throughout …

SDCC Day 3: Marvel’s Phase 2… kicking ass ‘1-inch at a time’!

Since I was so critical – or quiet, rather – about Marvel all weekend, leave it up to the company’s Iron Man 3 panel to turn that son ‘a bitch right upside down. Lots of dates were announced and a shit-ton of surprises. Yeah, no Hulk movie announcement. No Guardians of the Galaxy footage. And …

SDCC Day 1: DC Sophmore Slump? #0 Chance.

Gooooood morning (now afternoon -- horrendous wi-fi, folks) Comic Connnnnnnnnnnn! After a wild night where Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA-hosted a rooftop riot of resident evils, your pastor found himself on the floor of an unexpected hotel room; this fortuitous 3.75-hour carpet-face-cringed doze may just have been enough to deliver the Friday horror of Hall H. No …

SDCC Day 0.5: We pick up where E3 left off, Eskimo Nuts!

Ladies and gentleman, We've barely done a thing at The Con thus far -- but I could go home now and say it's been a winner. You see, San Diego Comic Con 2012 is akin to obtaining your first learner's permit: you just have to remember to use the turn signal. Once you've been to the not-so-surreptitious …

Murdering SprE3: The Lost Files (Part Deux)

You know an event was spectacular when peeps are still talking about it more than a week later. Okay -- so maybe that's just us. But, where Comic Con can rip the absolute sails off of your boat, E3 had us craving for more. Sure, our diocese essentially took the day off last Wednesday (See: To …
