| Many of my most significant memories of 2010 involve Comic-Con (both San Diego and New York). Here are the highlights. In no particular order: | 
| 
 | 
| Panels | 
| The White Collar and Psych panels were awesome, but my favorite was the Rifftrax panel (moderated by the awesome Veronica Belmont), which included a hilarious live riff of a ridiculous short called "Buying Food." | 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) Geek Girl Supreme Veronica Belmont and the Rifftrax guys. |  | 
| I got to meet the riffers (Rifftraxers?) themselves, Mystery Science Theater 3000 alums Michael J. Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy. | 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) With Kevin, Bill, and Mike from Rifftrax. What's up with that look on my face? |  | 
| 
 | 
| People | 
|  | 
| * Todd Stashwick, who isn't anything like Dr. Scott Borman, and Dennis Calero, who is. (Just kidding, Dennis.) | 
| 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) Todd Stashwick and Dennis Calero: partners in evil. |  | 
|  |  | Dennis Calero's rendering of Todd Stashwick's Heroes character Eli as the Three Stooges. |  |  | 
| 
 | 
| * Stephen Tobolowsky. I was disappointed to learn that he can't turn things to gold in real life. | 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) Ned Ryerson? Bing! |  | 
| 
 | 
| * The evilgreat David H. Lawrence and the lovely Mia. | 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) In the clutches of the Puppet Master. |  | 
| 
 | 
| * Foz McDermott. Hell of a guy. | 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) "The Mighty Foz" himself. |  | 
| 
 | 
| * Milo Ventimiglia. The guy knows how to handle a camera. | 
| 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) Milo sporting the crewcut, and me looking goofy. |  | 
 |  |  | (NYCC) Milo's hair is longer, and I am looking goofier. |  |  | 
| 
 | 
| * Brea Grant. Wonderful, as advertised. | 
| 
|  |  | (NYCC) One of these days, someone will take a picture of Brea and me in which I actually look halfway decent.
 |  | 
| * Brea's brother Zane is awesome in his own right. | 
| 
|  |  | (SDCC) With the Grant siblings. (Note to self: wear smaller shirts.) |  | 
| 
 | 
| * Interviewing Brea and Zane at NYCC was definitely one of the highlights of my year. | 
| 
|  |  | (NYCC) Awesomeness runs in the Grant family. |  | 
| 
 | 
| * My Twitter peeps at SDCC. Notably absent is @TsarMaxii, no doubt off doing something involving either bacon or murder. Or both. | 
| 
|  |  | The Convention Center fell to our superior numbers. |  |
