Comic Book Club: Live!

This past weekend was New York Comic-Con, and while I’m having slight technical problems exporting our last wrap-up show (you can check out Day 1 and Day 2, and the wrap-up is available over at Newsarama’s site for now), I wanted to give you some of my favorite bits from the weekend:

Favorite Announcement: David Lafuente on Ultimate Comics Spider-Man with Brian Michael Bendis. Lafuente has been blowing my mind with near perfect work on Patsy Walker: Hellcat, and Ultimate Spider-Man Annual #3. Bendis’ Ultimate Spider-Man is, month after month, the most consistent book Marvel has (possibly ever) published. Putting them together makes me giddy with glee.

Favorite Sneak-Peek: Neil Gaiman and Andy Kubert’s “What Ever Happened to the Caped Crusader.” Again, if I can get past these annoying tech problems, you’ll see our advanced review of it. But suffice to say, get yourself to the comic shop this week; it’s one of the best Batman stories ever written.

Favorite Picture: That one is easy, it’s tiny Wolverine:

Also, Pete was there.

Favorite Overheard Phrase: I didn’t even hear this one, it was just related to me, but on a commission some guy was getting:

“I like the way he’s grabbing her boobs, but I don’t like her eyes. She looks too surprised, and Captain America doesn’t rape people.”

Favorite Interview: That was actually Pete talking to DMC, of Run/DMC (it’s mind-blowingly good, no joke), but Joss Whedon and Tahmoh Penikett (Helo from Battlestar) in the booth at the same time? I nearly threw up and died.

So, those of you who were at NYCC: what were YOUR favorite moments?
