HERO For the Holidays!

This Holiday season, the Comics Podcast Network is hosting a fundraising drive for the HERO Initiative. Every little bit helps, so whatever you can give is more than enough. On the fence about picking up a certain title this month? Why not give $3 to HERO instead! Thanks to Scott Cederlund for getting the ball rolling on this, and thanks to HERO for helping past creators!

Here is a link to the HERO For the Holidays Drive page on the CPN site. Also, thanks to Newsarama for posting the related press release. Hopefully a lot of people will donate, as it is indeed for a good cause. Also, please post if you donate so we can keep a running tally of funds.

Thanks again, and Happy Holidays to all!

Comic Timing – Episode 50: Part 1

Part 1 of Episode 50 is here, and we are feeling Retro! Here are the first two segments, the first with the original Comic Timing crew, plus Brent Kossina: Tobey Cook and David Price! Then we have a discussion with Sean and Jim of Raging Bullets, as well as Freddie E Williams, the brand new artist on Flash. Finally, after the credits roll, I included a lost segment with Brent, Raph and I just shooting the breeze back in the summer. The segment is not very comic book related, but it’s good fun.
