Very busy few days here. Two podcasts to share, starting with my C2E2 interview with Force-Cast’s Jedi Journals.

Here is my schedule: Friday, April 8 2:30 p.m. — The Future of Comics — Mooschenko room 4:00 p.m. — Superheroes! — …
Been a little slow to get back online after the Chicago/Memphis trip, but I am pleased to say that I finally have the production notes for Knight Errant: Aflame #5 online here at the site. This is pretty darn late and if I were the publisher of this website, I would fire me. (Errr… wait. Never mind.) No, I admit I’ve had enough real deadlines to keep this winter that …

The Wise Man’s Fear, the second book in the Kingkiller Chronicles by Pat Rothfuss, debuted at #1 this week on The New York Times hardcover bestseller list. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy — who I met, of all places, a few years ago at the comics shop we both frequent here in Wisconsin. It’s one of those unlikely stories you remember for a long time: I was doing …
Here’s the rest of the responses to reader questions on the Star Wars: Knight Errant novel. As before, I can’t get into anything specific that’s coming up in the upcoming comics — and I caution readers who have not read the novel not to go further without considering a Spoiler Warning attached, although these should be pretty safe. Todd Selby asks: Is there an individual who considers him/herself absolute Dark …
I have here the first set of responses to reader questions on the Knight Errant novel, but first, there’s news in Star Wars Insider #124 on the next Knight Errant comics series. You’ll have to pick it up to find out more, but as the name is in circulation, I can say you’ll be hearing more about Deluge in the near future. Now, following the posting of the Knight Errant …
