I recently had the good fortune to be invited to New York Comic Con as press, so I packed up and headed to New York (actually New Jersey because riding the ferry rules) for a long weekend away. I met up with the incomparable Joey DiCarlo and Aubrey Litchfield from So Wizard Podcast, we set about interviewing as many amazing talents as we could for their YouTube page. Today, we are going to start sharing those interviews with you!

First up is our meeting with Timur Bekmambetov, the director behind such renowned movies as Wanted, Night Watch, and Day Watch. He talked to us about his newest picture, Mercy!

Next up we have our discussion with Charles Ardai, the co-founder of Hard Case Crime. We talked about that and his comic series, Gun Honey!

And finally for today, we talked to Joe Simko and Ira Friedman about their all-ages comic title, Craniacs!

Stay tuned this week and next as we continue our New York Comic Con coverage over here at SWO Productions!
