<p>I'll be at <a href="http://planetcomicon.wordpress.com/">Planet Comicon</a> this weekend in Kansas City. It's my local show so I'm probably a little biased but Planet gets better and better every single year. In fact, it was so awesome last year, it outgrew the convention center. So this year it's moving downtown to Bartle Hall. I hope to see lots of you out there.</p>
