Supanova Pop Culture Expo 2012: Melbourne Day Two
The geeks were out in force today
by David “Aussie Dave” Lobato, Reporter
Supanova 2012 officially opened to general public ticket holders on a very sunny Saturday the 14th of April at 10am. The Royal Melbourne Showgrounds was the (not so) secret headquarters for the event, with ample parking spaces and several public transportation options (including a special Supanova train service) in operation meaning that getting to the event itself was a rather straightforward affair.
Special Event: My Little Pony Royal Wedding, A Second Look!
“How do you feel about ponies?”
I was in a parking lot with a friend and a fellow brony when I was asked this random-in-almost-every-scenario question. I could tell there was some underlying reference that I didn’t catch, but I didn’t know how to answer. My ultimate response was a hesitant, “…why?” The aforementioned brony gave a brief but relatively informative breakdown of the show, mentioning some of the puntastic names (i.e. Fillydelphia, Manehattan, etc.), and, if we’re being honest, I wasn’t quite sold. Like most girls, I loved My Little Pony when I was younger. I even had a place for them in my heart of hearts as I went into young adulthood in that Peter Pan “never gonna grow up” kind of way. Despite not having watched the movies or the shows due to my ever-lasting tomboy phase, the ponies never failed to make me smile. But would I, as a young adult, be captivated by this show like some of my peers seem to be?
Special Event: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic Royal Wedding

No expense was spared for the Wedding party in Los Angeles, which featured a menagery of guests who were excited about the royal event!

WonderCon 2012: Marvel Animation Panel
by Kroze Kresky, Media Editor
Marvel Animation came to WonderCon 2012 fully prepared to blow the audiences away as they took the lid off of their Marvel Universe block on Disney XD (premiering April 1st).
NYCC2011: Regular Show Press Roundtable coverage
ComicsOnline had the opportunity to sit down with J.G Quintel (Creator, Mordecai), William Salyers (Rigby) and Sam Milton (Benson, Pops, Muscle Man) of The Regular Show. While nothing was revealed for upcoming episodes, it was more so an inside look at censorship and the creation process.
NYCC2011: Venture Bros Panel and Press Conference Coverage
“We have Nothing for you. So much Nothing, especially for you.” ~Venture Bros Creators to us. And that is exactly what most of the panel was. Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick, the creators of Venture Bros, were highly unprepared, except for the questions that were submitted to them. This doesn’t mean it was a “bad” panel, it was entertaining, and despite there being several off-topic derailings by the two, there was also some information given about the actual show.
NYCC2011: Venture Bros – Doc Hammer’s Most Hated Words/Phrases
Over at NYCC Venture Bros Panel, Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick had so much Nothing to announce. So much, just for us. While we were being entertained by Doc’s stories and the comedy workings of these two, they were derailed when discussing how Doc hates certain words. He even had a list of them, and was kind enough to read it to us! So, boys and girls, don’t forget to try and use these when you’re talking to him:
· Ridonkculous
· Hot mess
· Literally when it’s not used appropriately
· Totes (as in totally)
· IMO and IMHO
NYCC2011: Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Preview Panel
Get ready to conquer a new kingdom, because Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is coming out to hit your consoles in the face with fantastical awesomeness. Of course, by fantasical awesomeness, I mean logic and sense-making. For a lot of fantasy fans, this is a wet-dream come true.
The game is a single-player RPG, centering around the Well of Souls: a sort of resurrection machine. Up until the creation of the Well of Souls, resurrecting the dead was not possible, and its sudden appearance affects the world greatly (the NPCs are drastically affected, shown by their in-game dialogue). The player is the first life form resurrected by the Well of Souls, and is left to explore the world they left behind through new eyes. The player’s actions affect gameplay, the environment, and future quests.
