Special Issue: NYCC 2013 Day 3 & 4 Recap | Comic Book Podcast | Talking Comics
The weekend hits and the masses descend upon the Jacob Javits Center for NYCC 2013. Our fearless podcasters return for recaps of days 3 and 4. To share their thoughts on all the big Marvel Now Announcements, Stephanie Brown’s return to the DCU and our thoughts about our very first meet up.

Below is a statement form Mr. Niles:
“Woke up at 6am to water rushing into the house. Already ankle deep by the time we saw it. We got as much as we could off the ground and tried to block but there wasn’t much we could do. The worst was trying to get to Gil. It was waist deep almost and strong enough to throw around logs. I reached him and he was submerged and freaking out. Don’t remember much more then lifting him and carrying him all the way back to the house. Looking back I can see how scary it was.”
We are securing the house as much as we can and going through the damage. A scrapbook full of original art I’ve kept for 30 years is gone. A lot more.
Our friends Belinda and Steve are setting up a fund to help. I feel terrible about this but once things settle I’ll have to face up that we need help. I just wish I could catch my breath for 5 minutes and I can make my own money. Austin has had other ideas I guess.
We’ll keep you posted. We’re sort of trapped here for right now. Going to pack and move as much as we can before the next storm hits.
Thank you guys so much.”
