114. I’m headed to San Diego Comic Con

Today, on the show I talk about an exciting event that is coming up next week, San Diego Comic Convention (SDCC). SDCC is the mecca of all comic con! I was so excited when they chose my panel (Cosplayers, Ready your Swords!) that I pitched to them to be part of the 50th anniversary of SDCC. Make sure you check out the schedule for my panel. We’ll be doing some meet and greets, autographs and more. Or just stop in a say hello!

112. Scott Shaw, cartoonist and founding member of San Diego Comic Con

Fan is short for fanatic. One of my favorite quotes from today’s episode with cartoonist, Scott Shaw. Scott takes time out of his day to chat with me about the conception of San Diego Comic Convention (SDCC). As well as highlights of his works in the cartoon and comic field.

108. Countdown to Kauai Comic Con with Aaron Yamasato

Aloha!- Today I am joined by a friend, Aaron Yamasato! I previously had Aaron on my podcast discussing Hawaiian culture and cult classic filmmaking. I met Aaron when we worked together on a TV show called Inside Hong Kong.

101. Stan Sakai creator of Usagi Yojimbo

I am trying to contain my excitement today… I had the honor of interviewing the legendary Stan Sakai. For those of you who are not falling out of your chair, this means you don’t read comics. For those of you who just fainted, you know Stan as the creator of Usagi Yojimbo.

25. The San Diego Comic Con episode

It’s San Diego Comic Con week! In honor of this convention, I sit down with my occasional co-host Oscar, as well as other special guests to chat all things Comic Con. One of the guests is author and film critic Ric Meyers, known as the kung fu guy! He was a long-term columnist for Inside Kung Fu and Asian Cult Cinema magazines, and has consulted on numerous films, including one of my favorites, Kung Fu Panda. I sit down to talk with Ric about his 20th Kung Fu Extravaganza at San Diego Comic Con. Another guest is Lei Ann Resurreccion, who is a lover of cosplay. Lei Ann chats costumes and cosplay fun with me as we both plan on being at Comic Con next year!
