iFanboy - Episode #237 - New York Comic Con 2011 Part 2

Once yearly, the comics industry descends on the far west side of Manhattan and crams into the all too tiny confines of the Javitt's Center for New York Comic Con. And as we do, iFanboy is there to talk to your favorite creators and get the scoop on what's going on and what's coming up. Enjoy this third of four episodes from NYCC. Rob Liefeld is a comic book loving and making maniac! One of the biggest announcements at New York Comic Con was the return of the Extreme line at Image Comics, overseen by Liefeld. And if that wasn't enough, Liefeld is keeping himself busy drawing two monthly books: The Infinite from Image Comics and Hawk Dove at DC Comics! One of the most succesful indie comics stories of the last few years is Atomic Robo and then men behind that successful series are Brian Clevinger Scott Wegener! What's the deal with the time-spanning robot who is equally at home stomping Nazis and taking meetings in the board room? One of the most daring and innovative comic book companies these days is Archie Comics--that's right, Archie Comics! Archie Comics Co-Publisher Jon Goldwater and Archie Comics President Mike Pellerito give the lowdown on what's exciting at Archie Comics! Francis Manapul is one half of the team behind one of the biggest books in comics: The Flash! As both the co-writer and the artist responsible for Barry Allen's adventures, Manapul is a man constantly on the move. Archiaia Entertainment is producing some of the most interesting and innovate original graphic novels on the stands today. Books from the likes of Jim Hensen, Brent Schoonover, and Marjane Satrapi. Archaia Entertainment Editor-in-Chief Stephen Christy shows of some of his wares and makes us want to spend a lot of money. Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie just can't seem to shake each other, even though they aren't working together (at the moment). But while they might not be teaming up at the moment, both have found their home in the X-Men corner of the Marvel Universe. Plus: Jamie McKelvie blushes and Kieron Gillen sings!
