This is Comic Geekspeak, episode 1554.

Pants on the floor at C2E2 2015.

Welcome to the show. I'm Brian Christman, also known as Pants.

This past weekend, April 24th through to 26th, I was out in Chicago at the McCormack Place

for the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo. Otherwise, I otherwise known as C2E2.

It was my first time out there since 2013, and I really had a good time at this show.

Really did.

Met a lot of people, caught up with a lot of people, hadn't seen quite a while.

And so what I have for hearing this episode is several interviews I did on the floor of the convention with a lot of hopefully

familiar voices to the longtime listeners. And speaking of Comic Cons and travel, this episode of Comic

Geek Speak is brought you by Geek Nation Tours. This October, Gig Nation Tours is off to New York

Comic Geek style. They'll be headed not only to the

Uber Awesome New York Comic-Con, but also will be exploring New York City through a geek's eyes.

Tour participants will see the regular New York City tourist locations, like Hell's Kitchen, Central Park,

and Times Square, but they'll also stop by the fictional dress of the Fantastic Four,

where Uncle Ben was shot, and even the Frick Museum, which was the inspiration for the Avengers

Mansion, of the Daily Bugle, and much, much more. And they'll even be hitting a couple of comic

book shops at local to the area, like Jameson Bob Secret St Stash as seen on comic book Men on AMC.
