And the big news is...

After almost 12 years working in or around the City of New York (4 years as a provisional civil servant, 4 years as a consultant to City of NY, and 4 years as consultant from Unisys to New York State supporting the City of NY) an era comes to an end this Friday. I have spent years working as an IT jack-of-all-trades for Management Information Services, some of the titles included Senior Network Manager, Citrix Enterprise Engineer and Technical Liason just to name a few.

Lots of reading...

I have been slacking on my blogging duties do to life kicking my butt, and as always tons going on not to mention the unbelievable amount of comics I have been reading. I have been truly enjoying comics in all their forms. Since the Comic-Con here in NYC I have been consuming comics with reckless abandon.

NY ComicCon - Day 2 (Part 2)

The next thing that I went to was the Hulk panel at the IGN Theater. The line was freakin' ridiculous, but I met up with my friend Frank and his son and we stood in line. The room that this panel happened in had 2 screens, 1 on either side of the center where the stage / dais where everyone eventually sat to talk. The panel was filled with 2 producers Gale Anne Hurd and Kevin Feige, the director Louis Leterrier and a surprise to us Tim Roth. We were given a talking to by the producers first then the director, then they showed us some footage of Ed Norton transforming.

NY ComicCon - Day 2 (Part 1)

The second day of the 2008 NY ComicCon was by far the best day for this geek. I started off arriving around 11AM and not really sure where the rooms where the panels were located. I strolled following the cryptic signs and the small amounts of people heading back to the panels area. I went from room to room checking what was there because I had already reviewed the schedule and wasn't too excited about the choices I read on the schedule before I arrived.

NY ComicCon - Day 1

Today was the first day of ComicCon in New York at the Jacob Javits center. What a great experience from the booths full of comics, trades and merchandise to the artists sitting just on the otherside of a table. Some of the highlights were seeing some of the video podcasters from within the comic culture like the iFanboy crew and Nick from Varient Edition and seeing a good friend Jon Hoche perform with the Vampire Cowboys. Will check back in tomorrow after day 2... Hope to see you there.
