As promised, here is the Comics Podcast Panel from Wizard World Chicago 2008. The panel was moderated by Eisner Award winning writer Sean McKeever, and included myself, Brian Salazar of Around Comics, Vince Bonavoglia of 11 O’Clock Comics, Scott Cederlund of Wednesday’s Haul, John Siuntres of Wordballoon, Stevie D. of Comic Book Queers, Steven Schuler of Alter Ego, and Sean Whelan of Raging Bullets. If you weren’t able to attend the convention or the panel, here’s your chance to hear what eight of comics Podcasting’s finest have to say about the medium. Besides the people from above I want to thank Chris Neseman (Around Comics) for putting the whole deal together.

I also had a chance to meet (some for the first time) some really cool people; Professionals: Mike Norton, Dave Wachter, Skottie Young, Greg Rucka, Pat Loika; and friends of the show: Mark Ross (Cluck Trent) and Matt Kramer (Darth Kramer). I was only there for a few hours on Friday, so I would have liked to have met many more people, perhaps next year. I’ll be going over more of my experiences including the incredible deals that I got. for this week’s podcast due out Wednesday.

This week on the show I give a full rundown of the DC Comics January/1Q 2009 Collected Editions. I blogged about this a few days ago and I have yet to come up with a source for the list so take it with a grain (or chunk) of salt.

Also on the show I do a little eBay Sold Searching and you won’t believe just what are hot commodities and the final sold prices for the books.

Have an email question regarding what to do with damaged books that are bought at conventions; news on a brand new cool Prince Valiant retrospective; and is anyone buying the Marvel Illustrated books?

All this including the New Releases of the Week, what’s coming up on the next TwoMorrows Tune-In Podcast and a Kick-Ass (#1-2) giveaway – find out how to enter on the show.

On this week’s show, I celebrate all things Hulk. I give a rundown of some of the essential collected editions you should read (or better yet – own). I even talk about the early days of Kirby and Lee, through the Peter David run and right up to Planet Hulk and WWH.

I also catch up on all the news of the past two weeks and if you are going to be at Wizard World Chicago be sure to stop be and see the podcasting panel, which I will be a part of.

Lastly, I rundown The New Releases of the Week and a few from last week, too.
