into the spiraling galaxy of geek culture through the kaleidoscopic lens of the planet's
biggest pop culture gathering worldwide (clocked twice by Guinness!): the San
Diego Comic-Con. With such special guests as: Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller, Kevin
Smith, Bruce Campbell, Felicia Day, Scott Aukerman, Stan Sakai, Sergio Aragonés,
Trina Robbins, the Russo Bros., Lloyd Kaufman, Tim Seeley, Kevin Eastman, and
many others - along with 400+ photos and art - the book also features forewords by

Clan's own uber-nerd mastermind RZA.
