Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Mystik U"Yeah, I agree that making this story "official" would have an "everything you know is wrong" effect. But it would be fun to read further adventures."
Rob Staeger (Grodd Mod) replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Mystik U"I really liked that book; I'd love to see more of it. I don't think I want it to be the official history of magic in the DCU, but I'd be very happy to see more adventures like that in an alternate timeline. "
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)'s discussion Hey Kids! Comics! Vol. 1"Thanks, Richard. I figured there might be some factual basis, but couldn't see a reasonable way to research it. There was no train involved, but the artist hit by a taxi might be a reference. The other is a woman bumped out of a window high in…"

Heroes Convention 2009
Posted on June 19, 2009 at 11:26pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
After a late start, spent almost seven hours at the convention. I attended one panel discussion: "The New Power Generation of Comics" with Brian Michael Bendis, Ivan Brandon, Ed Brubaker, Jonathan Hickman, and Matt Fraction.
