Seeing kids in awe of Stormtroopers and Jedis, a mother – daughter Harley Quinn duo, buying David Bowie earrings and a bookmark of Han Solo as a cat, makes Family Day at Motor City Comic Con the best! First, I feel that the family day ticket prices are an incredible deal! Kids under four are […]Read More
Walking into Motor City Comic Con, one can be amazed by many things – a giant Thanos costume made out of balloons, Hawkgirl cosplay with functioning wings, Stephen Amell’s abs. But the most amazing aspect of Motor City Comic Con, and something I noticed more this year than any other, is that it is a […]Read More
Fear In Texas: My First Texas Frightmare Weekend. By Cake Blissken I received a phone call at exactly 3:33am, on May 4th, 2018. A man’s voice began rambling, telling me “I had to be in Austin, Texas today.” It sounded urgent. He had something to show me, that would change my life forever. I took down […]Read More
So I had the opportunity to attend HorrorHound Weekend again this year that took place at the Sharonville Convention Center in Cincinnati on March 23-25, 2018. I was accompanied by my good friend Andy Kallas, his 7 yr old daughter Delilah and my son Michael Jr. When we hit the con on Friday the queue for wristbands […]Read More
It’s often said that out of harsh times some of the best art is created. The way and shape of things causing people to look creatively inward and really tap into what they want to express can make for art thats universal and compelling and inspiring; a cultural moment addressing things that need addressing. For […]Read More
The past year has just flown by and I can’t believe it’s already time for one of the best and biggest Comic Cons in the Pacific Northwest, Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle, WA. This year’s four day con looks to have more fun and fandom than can fit into a TARDIS. Below is a […]Read More
After a year hiatus, I was back at MondoCon! I could not have been more thrilled. I can’t tell you how much I missed all the great art, the films, the artists, the nerds and of course my friends last year. My return did not disappoint. As always, my partner in crime in Austin was […]Read More
We all love the huge comic conventions, whether it is the mother of them all in San Diego or the biggest local one in your state. There’s nothing like walking down an aisle and then turning to see Jason Mamoa or Billy Piper walk right past. But let’s not forget about those smaller cons. They […]Read More
Escape from New York ComicCon 2017 Pow! Blam!! Kaboom!!! Splooogge!!!!

Hello movie fiends and film freaks! Fantastic Fest 2017 recently took place in Austin, TX and once again, the 8 day film festival was stuffed to the gills with a smorgasbord of international cinematic offerings to devour. Like previous years I went all out, forgoing rest to pack in as many screenings and events as […]Read More
Comic conventions can be quite hectic place at times. Large crowds trying to see and do many things with everything going on at once. If not properly staffed and planned out things can get out of hand quickly. With Rose City Comic Con expanding to a third day in its sixth year, I was wondering […]Read More
There’s no finer time of the year and no film festival that remotely compares with the 8 days of unbridled genre lunacy and (often alcohol fueled) fun that is Fantastic Fest. It seems an almost impossible feat but every year somehow manages to be better than the rest. Consisting of predominately World and North […]Read More

My day started with meeting Michael Rooker. While waiting in line, I witnessed a three-year-old girl instruct Rooker how to kill a zombie. See the video on our […]Read More
Day two started with waiting in line to meet the remarkable Billie Piper of Doctor Who, Penny Dreadful, and Secret Diary of a Call Girl. Only a few minutes late for autographs, I see Miss Piper walking towards us. She looks right at me and says, “I just need to use the toilet” in the sweetest British accent imaginable. […]Read More
It’s Friday May 19th, 2017 at approximately 6:16 PM …Do you know where your children are?
