The end of the holidays are finally here and Around Comics ushers in the new year with an all new panel. Join Chris as he welcomes Wordballoon's John Siuntres, Scott Cederlund from Wednesday's Haul and artist extrordinair Chris Burnham. It's a good old fashioned geekfest as the panel discusses a wide range of comics culture topics and what they are looking forward to in 2009.
Around Comics is back with a special presentation from Wizard World Chicago. Listen to the first Comic Book Podcasting Panel hosted at Wizard's Chicago show. The panel was moderated by Eisner Award winning writer Sean McKeever, and included 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, Chris Marshall of Collected Comics Library 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. We'll be back again next week with an all new Around Comics, but in the meantime you can also check out Tom Vs.
