Matman Remembers NYCC 2012

So New York Comic Con 2012 is a memory, but now Brian and I have to filter through all the fun and start to report to you the things we saw, the interviews we did and the people we met.

First of all we must thank ReedPOP Entertainment for giving us the access to do what we do.

And a serious HUGE thank you and hugs to Vince, Lisa, Cristy and Boo for sharing their home, train, cabs and table with us.

My many thanks to Brian, Krystal and the gang from Bender / Helper Impact who helped me by organizing and scheduling all my DC interviews. This made it so easy for me to just focus on the interview instead of everything else that goes along with it. Also, thanks to Alex and Pamela from DC Entertainment for making things run that much smoother.

Thank you to everyone at Zondervan (Father Mark, Matt and Chris) for not only their time and interviews, but their boldness. Partners in the battle!

Here is my list of folks I chatted with...

Mel Caylo of Archaia Entertainment
Chris Koelle - artist of Zondervan's 'Book Of Revelation'
Matt Dorff of everyipublishing
Caitlin Blackwood who plays young Amy Pond from Doctor Who
Manny Galan from 'Captain Cornelius Cartoon's Cartoon Lagoon'
Fred Pierce, publisher at Valiant Comics
DaFixer himself, Umar from DaFixer's Hideout
Adam Levine from Topps Company
Jeff Lemire - writer of 'Animal Man' and 'Essex County'
Bill Willingham - writer of 'Fables' and creator 'Elementals'
Scott Snyder - writer of 'Batman' and 'Swamp Thing'
Mike Pelleritto - president of Archie Comics
Emilio Velez, Jr. - creator of the 'Dodgeball Teens'
John Sazaklis - writer of DC Super Pets

Over the next month or so, I'll be talking about the incredible books I found and a little battle between Chris Giarrusso and Franco! Aww - Yeah!
