The Jack Kirby Tribute Panel was the last event I attended at this year's WonderCon, and it's always good to end a con with a panel that is sentimental and funny because it can help you forget any nonsense from the rest of the convention. And thanks to moderator Mark Evanier (one time assistant to […]
So I will get to the question that everyone is asking, did Groo colorist Tom Luth attend the panel. The answer, sadly is no, but that didn't stop a full room of people from having grand old time listening to Groo The Wanderer artist Sergio Aragones, writer Mark Evanier, and letterer Stan Sakai (Usagi Yojimbo) […]
[rwp-review-recap id="0"] To round out the month of Jack Kirby, we have Darkseid #1 to bring us tales from the shadows of Apokolips and give us insight into the head of its cruel overlord.

Dark Horse has sent as an exclusive advance preview of Sergio Aragones's newest issue of the iconic warrior. Groo: Play of the Gods #3 includes lands full of gold, pirates who want the gold, and clergymen who are willing to use torture to convert people to their beliefs — like Europe used to be. Oh, […]
Back in 2008, Kirby: King of Comics was released to much fanfare and it was warranted: featuring amazing presentation, old-school style paper stock, and all the Jack Kirby artwork your eyes could handle and presented in large format so you could enjoy all those Kirby dots for all-time. Now, as we celebrate Kirby's centennial, Abrams […]
[rwp-review-recap id="0"] With Captain Ahax, Taranto, the Iberzan clergy of Diothos, and the hidden away Groo and Rufferto on a ship set for Ahax's newly discovered land, things are looking on track. Ahax and Taranto are going to get their gold, and the clergymen will have plenty of new people to convert. Things couldn't possibly […]
Bleeding Cool's Christine Marquet reports from The Mark, Sergio, Stan, and Tom Show Panel: This Thursday afternoon,The Mark, Sergio, Stan, and Tom Show panel took place at San Diego Comic-Con 2017. From Sergio's flavorful reminiscing of life early in his career to Mark's spilling his water (which needed attention before the conversation could continue), the trio shared a warm […]

Over the years there have been certain panels that I try to see whenever they happen. Whether at SDCC or Wondercon. The Mark, Sergio, and Stan Panel falls firmly into that category. I must have seen some iteration of this panel at least 6-7 times over the years. Why you ask. Well, I'll tell you. […]

By Joshua Stone The annual Quick Draw panel at SDCC is always one of my favorites, and that is for two reasons – Sergio Aragones and Mark Evanier. Aragones can draw anything and make it funny and have it done faster than you can blink. He and Evanier's banter is always fun and it is […]
I am at San Diego Comic Con at one of my favourite regular panels, The Sergio And Mark Show. And it is to be its last. Cue shock and horror from those who have been here for many, many years. In fact, I don't think some of us actually leave the room from year to […]
Sergio Aragones is the delight of any convention he attends, and the fact that the comic Groo is still running, probably the first comic book I ever read, is even more delightful to me. There is quite simply nothing like it that lampoons so effectively whatever aspect of human life strikes Sergio's fancy at any […]
