Hypericon Gaming Schedule

The Hyperion 2009 game schedule has been posted. We've also added some new guests.

Hypericon 5! June 5 - 7. Nashville, TN.

Back From The Con

And boy are my arms tired. Along with the rest of me.

Hypericon was a blast! Since I'm the gaming director I mostly did gaming stuff but I did get to be on a comics panel. The name of the panel was "Comics Greatest Moments (To Me)" and we discussed the things that got us into comics as well as the things that have kept us reading them. Comic geeks can't discuss comics without bitching about them, too so there was plenty of that, as well. It was a lot of fun.

A few of the things I mentioned were Watchmen, the aftermath of Crisis on Infinite Earths, Pretty much everything First Comics put out, Byrne's Fantastic Four, Marvel's Essentials line, and the Byrne/Claremont X-Men.

My fellow panelists threw out things such as Astro City, The Dark Knight Returns, the Dark Phoenix saga, and everything by Roy Thomas.

I'm leaving a bunch of stuff out but it was a really fun conversation.

How about you? What are your favorites?

Reviewing the Reviewers & Hypericon

Dann Gire from the Chicago Daily Herald reviewed the Fantastic Four sequel and you'll never guess what his headline is. Are you ready? Wait for it...

Fantastic Bore!!!!

Man, Oscar Wilde's got nothing on this guy!

And with that I'm off to Hypericon!

I may not have any updates until next Monday or Tuesday. Have fun and I'll rap at ya soon.

Slouching Towards Hypericon

I'm the gaming director at Hypericon which means I'll be spending a lot of time this week on last-minute preparations for it. Because the con starts this coming Friday. No pressure. Yes, I'm all right. Thanks for asking.

If you are going to be at the con I'd love to meet you face-to-face. If you can make it to Nashville this weekend stop by and have fun with us.

Melissa Gay (who did the art for the con at the top of this post) and Todd Lyles will both be showing in the art show.

So, the updates may slow down (or stop) until the weekend is over. Have fun and I'll see you on the other side of the weekend!

Dial H for Hypericon

Dial B for Blog is what Noetic Concordance wants to be when it grows up.

Regular posts will continue once I'm done with Hypericon
