That’s a Wrap – Comikaze 2013

So Say We All! |
Among the highlights was Stan Lee kicking off the event with his big reveal of The Zodiac coming soon through Disney Press. It’s a new venture for Lee, who promised that it’s like nothing we’ve seen before! Edward James Olmos, who followed our Generalissimo on the Hot Topic Main Stage was inspiring, especially his rousing call of “So say we all!” as he finished his panel, which made the whole day a little less exhausting. And the most uplifting panelist of all was the sweet and sassy presence of Tara Strong. She’s the hardest working guest at Comikaze. She held two panels on the main stage on top of three days of signings and photo ops. And she did it all with resilient joy and enthusiasm.
Finally, we wish to take a moment to thank a few guests and exhibitors who made this a very special Expo. First on our list is the beautiful and talented Cerina Vincent. She generously gave us her time to talk about all the amazing projects she has lined up, including a very special Hallmark channel feature called, The Thanksgiving House. She’s also the star in a horror-fying (yes, I just made that word up) short called Skypemare that harkens back to the stylings of the Master of Suspense, Alfred Hitchcock. We’d also like to recognize Bongo Comics for their benevolent gift of their time to talk to us about their work. Special thanks to Nathan Kane and Max Davison for the interview. Love the Simpsons and Futurama, and we were super excited to hear that Futurama, though canceled on Comedy Central, would live on in the comics! Check them out! And last but certainly not least, thanks to Queen Mab for the sweet connections to other great Nerds doing wonderfully nerdy things. Your loyal subjects thank you!
