This is a very different podcast than normal. This episode was actually recorded for my other podcast, Relentless Geekery, so you'll hear my co-host - Alan Baltis - on here. We chatted with Ted for quite awhile about many things, most of which weren't book or publishing related. I edited the episode so that it focused on the book and publishing. What also makes this weird is that Ted's books are comic books, graphic novels. It is a look at writing and publishing that isn't seen as much. I encourage everyone to check out Ted's stuff. I love it. Even though the kickstarter is over, you can still get his books. https://www.herotomorrow.com/

Today is a very exciting episode. Not only are we now recording video (check out our Youtube for updates) but we have our first interview. Talking with Ted (our TED talk as Alan says) is fantastic. Alan and Stephen have both followed Ted with his Hero Tomorrow company. We talk about Apama, the Undiscovered Animal […] The post Episode 39 – Ted Sikora Interview appeared first on Relentless Geekery.

We welcome Ted Sikora to the show to first help us remember some of our favorite motorcycle wielding bad-asses in this week’s Retro Roundtable. It was this month in 2008 that Sons of Anarchy first premiered, so it seemed only right! We recall bad-asses like Judge Dredd, The Terminator, John Travolta, and Ralph S. Mouse….wait, what? Then we turn our attention to Ted to discuss the first extension into the Apama universe, Tap Dance Killer! Actress Nikki St Clair was the sweetest gal in the city until she was cast in a horror show musical as the Tap Dance Killer. Now, unable to shake the role, this 1920s-esque bizarre mobster assassin is out on the streets dealing damage with a theatrical flair that leaves 'em, quite literally, slain in the isles!

The 2nd annual North East Ohio Comic Con, or NEO Comic Con2.0, was held in tight quarters this year. It was sort of a last minute event for the child and I to attend, and was the winner of a toss up between the Pittsburgh Comic convention and this one.  I am fairly certain that I chose wisely by attending this gathering of cos-players, collectors, and fans of all things awesome.  There were no huge names to be found at this event making you fork out tons of cash to let you stand "near" them and get a picture and pay a little extra for a signed head-shot.  This was a one-on-one with creators, writers, artists, and vendors, who were all there for the love of what started as just some cartoons on some news print.  This event really felt "family" and very relaxed compared to some of the other larger events that have occurred around the Cleveland area in years past.  I am already excited for next years event, it is already being promoted to be at an even larger venue.  With the extra space people will be able to move a little bit more and the organizers will be able to bring in more vendors and different types of other cool things. I am not an avid collector of comics nor am I super engrossed in that world.  I enjoy all the movies that come out and some of the current television programs based upon comics. I collected a bunch of Transformers comics in the mid to late 80's and other assorted ones that I thought looked cool.  I din't know artists and writers, all I cared about was how the stories made me feel.  It is amazing to see how much the industry has grown in 30 some years, absolutely amazing!  We live in a comic culture right now, all the popular, mass grossing, movies are all based on some sci-fi/comic template.  I enjoy the fantasy world that I get to visit from time to time watching the latest Capt. America or Ant Man movies.  It is a bonding time between the child and I, something we can relate to with each other and talk about.  We even get to bring the adventures home via video games from time to time which is also super sweet.  To me this is what the world feels like, a land of super heroes all around us all the time. When the child and I attended the NEO Comic Con I was on a mission.   I wanted to track down different bearded individuals and see who their favorite "bearded" or "mustached" comic heroes were.  I also wanted to talk to some artists and designers to see about their projects.  We had a great time meeting some great people and learning about some interesting and cool things we normally wouldn't.  We met a bunch of nice bearded fellas who took time out to share their thoughts on some different characters found in the comic/movie worlds.  I also talked to Ted Sikora who is a director and writer of a comic called APAMA.  I also talked with Frank James Bailey, voice actor and writer of TERCONA.  Neither men had any facial hair but I didn't care!  They both had some great stories about what they do and also talked about some of their ideas who the great "bearded" or "mustached" characters in comics were.  Take a listen to the podcast to hear from everyone that I spoke to at NEO Comicon.  Below are links to all the cool things I want you to check out that are discussed in the interviews in the podcast.  I appreciate your support and please share with your friends!!!       NEO COMIC CON 2 MAKE A WISH TED SIKORA APAMA HERO TOMORROW FRANK JAMES BAILEY TERCONA JOE MILLER SUPERHEROES TO KIDS IN OHIO 501ST GARRISON, REBEL LEGION & MANDO MERCS / STAR WARS CHRIS DONLEY BEN LEVIN

Craziness in a car. On our way to C2E2 in Chicago, we thought it'd be fun to record an episode! In part one, we talk about our hopes & goals at the convention.  In part two, we discuss what we actually did at the con, including meeting Chris Claremont & Marguerite Bennett and hanging out with Ted Sikora of Apama, the Undiscovered Animal.  In part three, we just leave the microphone on & shoot the shit. Marc manages to fit in a quick review of Sword of the Atom from DC Comics, written by Jan Strnand and art by Gil Kane. This episode really captures what it's like to take a road trip with your friends...if your friends love comics.  Follow Us On Twitter @supertim82@personman44 @newmutant82@jlambertart Follow Us on the Internets (giving us ratings is super dope):iTunesStitcher Listen to Other Awesome BenView Podcasts:BenViewNetwork.com is the where you can discover the wonder of BenView!   Love the Theme Song?The Fantastic Plastics are rad! #comics #c2e2 #chicago
