As I sit here looking at my "Sgt. Fury and the Howling Commandos," "The New Warriors," and "Cyborg Blue Devil CAT WOMAN," I remember so many quiet early upstate Western New York Saturday mornings. After a bowl of cereal and milk, I would grab a pile of new comics, slide out the front door and jump onto our pink lounge set on our front porch and gleefully read about my favorite heroes, their challenges, their losses, their victories; life lessons on a printed page... sharing new story lines and favorite characters with friends who brought their comics and piled onto the outdoor lounge set beside me. San Diego Comicfest this year reminded me of why I stay connected to the comics community http://www.sdcomicfest.org/ I enjoyed participating on several panels and serving as moderator for the Friday evening Apocalypse/Dystopia Panel. The room was packed with apocalpyse fans and onlookers who provided lively questions and discussion. sandiegocomicfest .sched
