Ku Liang has potentially one of the best jobs you can think of - working with the coolest events around the globe and trying to figure how to make them even better? Ku is the Global Director of Business Development at ReedPop - the company behind some of the biggest comic and pop culture conventions in the world including New York Comic Con, the MCM chain of events in the UK (which is running its Birmingham event this weekend, where guests include Star Wars's C3PO Anthony Daniels and geek hall of famer Sean Astin), PAX events around the world, and the relatively new kid on the block, Comic Con Africa. It's Ku's job to help develop and grow these events further ... no mean feat when there are over 40 events worldwide, each with their own regional challenges and trends against an ever-changing international pop culture backdrop. Against the backdrop of the MCM Birmingham event this weekend, Ku was in Johannesburg recently for the second edition of massively successful Comic Con Africa and was kind enough to chat to us about many things including: - how Japanese animation and manga, a good smattering of kung fu books and plenty of Chinese translated sci-fi novels started him on a lifelong path of geekdom. - how his extensive experience in retail and publishing helped give him the clarity and understanding of what fans may want, and how to make sure ReedPop is getting it right. - and whether the convention scene, and fandom itself, in the US and internationally is close to hitting its saturation point. Plus we discuss how the recent Comic Con Africa experience in Johannesburg compares to other Comic Con events internationally.

Jarcque Henning is the owner of a gaming store in Pretoria called HQ Gaming that specialises in Magic: The Gathering. Regular listeners of the podcast will know that I love playing MTG, and HQ Gaming is one of my favourite stores to play at in SA. Jarcque quit his job in IT to pursue his passion for selling pieces of pretty cardboard to nerds like myself. It's a bold move but it's one that seems to be paying off as Jarcque has attracted a regular customer base through competitive pricing and offering players generous incentives. We get into the difficulties of selling a relatively obscure luxury product in the current South African economy and we also hear tales of Jarcque's international competitive experiences. Jarcque is one of the few store owners who is also a competitive player which gives him a unique perspective on the wants and needs of his player base. We also get into the future of South African MTG and Jarcque's role in it. HQ Gaming along with Easy Gaming Group will be hosting the first-ever Africa MTG Open Series at Comic-Con Africa with a first-place cash prize of R3000 for each day, so I expect to see the best in the country duking it out to secure the loot. https://almostperfect.co.za/ep-42-jarcque-henning/

It's National Novel Writing Month! And in the first of this four-part series, I speak with Kelan Gerriety, founder of the Sera Blue publishing company, along with fellow horror-fantasy author Jason Hes. Together, Kelan, Jason, and I discuss the importance of Queer representation in niche genre literature as well as the first-ever Comic Con Africa. Joining as my co-host for this episode is my friend and fellow lover of all things nerd, Courtney Antonioli. Be sure to head over to the Typed Out website for audio previews of Into The Dark by Kelan Gerriety and Our Immaculate by Jason Hes.

Olympics podcasting team (the "uncanny" Daryll B., Dburt and Capt. Kirk) as they wax about this (mid) week's following topics:  there's still much to discuss about this past weekend's impressive box office performance for Marvel's Black Panther (the hidden and not so hidden meanings; sequel potential; Dburt wants a Victorian age/steampunk version of the Black Panther for Netflix a la SYFY's Krypton; is this really a Black sci-fi/fantasy renaissance?); Reed Pop appears to be exploring a Comic Con Africa (whoa Afronerdism goes global!); picking up from where we left off weeks ago, the team discusses a web article critiquing the Black barbershop as a hostile "cishet" space for the LGBTQ community; the Women's bobsledding team of Nigeria make history by entering into this year's Winter Olympics.  And lastly, we revisit the debate over whether comic books that possess non White male leads or themes have difficulting selling at the marketplace.  And if so, does this ultimately mean that  Black retailers are needed?  (shout out to Philly's Amalgam Comics).  Call in LIVE at 646-915-9620.
