My Top Ten Comics of 2013

What a crazy year 2013 brought us in comics! As you heard me mention on the podcast, I would be posting this after episode 110 hits the airwaves, making it third year in a row I have put finger to keyboard to bring you my thoughts on my favorite comics. I will also be including where these books placed on my lists in prior years (if they appeared at all) and a few also rans.

I don't get out for long distance travelling as much as I'd like these days, overnight trips just doesn't agree with me, but when the line up was finalized for the Wrestling is Art events set for Massachusetts and Rhode Island, I was sad I wasn't going to be there live.

Wrestling is Respect Rebirth 01/28/13

I had the pleasure to commentate the return of Wrestling is Respect at the end of January in Boonton, NJ. Rising from the ashes of the Pro Wrestling Respect promotion, which I had been a fan of in the past, I was interested to see how this reimagining would be.
