Well, it’s almost here. The New York Comic Con. And us Geekadelphians are packing up and shipping out to New York City for the entire weekend, to cover an array of fun, geeky things.

For the most part, we’re going to try to be professional about this. Walk around with our video camera, interview select people, ask deep, interesting questions… you know, legit journalism stuff. We’ve got interviews scheduled with some great comic book artists and video game developers, and we are very excited to bring you all some fresh, unique content.

However, I make no guarantees that I won’t throw myself at Joss Whedon. Pleeeease can we get a Serenity II?

My picks? The world premiere of the new Futurama movie, Futuruma: Into the Wild Green Yonder, is definitely at the top of my list. An opportunity to see a Futurama movie on a large, theatrical screen? Count me in. I also plan on previewing upcoming titles from Atari, notably Ghostbusters and the new Chronicles of Riddick, as well as titles from EA, such as the Godfather II. Ah, and let’s not forget the panel (and signing!) with Penny Arcade.

Planning to come to the Comic Con? Let us know. We’ll hang out, buy you a drink, and take a photo of you for on the blog.

He teaches writing and literature at some local Philadelphia colleges and works in publishing. He knows absolutely nothing about sports, and is proud of it.

    Wait-what?! What artist are you scheduled with?! DAMN IT!! I miss out on everything nowadays!

    You guys have fun though. Get me tons of free stuff, and take a gas mask with you. Don’t question me, just do it.

    You’ll hit me on the way when you throw yourself at Whedon. Although I’ll try not to be “that guy” and remember to take off my Jayne hat during the Dollhouse panel. I’d tell you to say hi if you see me, but it may be too much to ask that I be the only fat chick with glasses in a Jayne hat.
