It’s the one year anniversary of the Pop Culture Affidavit podcast and I’m celebrating in fine style with coverage from the 2013 Baltimore Comic-Con! I attended on Saturday, September 7 and you’ll get to hear me talk about the con as well as talk to some comics creators I met, including Art Baltazar and Franco, Michael Golden, Rob Kelly, and George Perez!
You can listen here:

Pictures are located after the jump, but I did want to share some links to things mentioned on the podcast …
The Baltimore Comic-Con: I obviously want to provide a link to the official page of the con and offer my thanks once again to the organizers for giving me a press pass.
Hey Kids, Comics!: Rob Kelly recently wrote a book and I had the privilege of speaking to him about it at the con. Look for an extended interview with him on the next episode!
Healed: A comic from Homeless Comics that I didn’t buy at the con but checked out online and it, or at least issue #1 is really good.
