You may know TV hostess, stand-up comedian, comic nerd, and geek maven Blair Butler as the host of "Fresh Ink" on G4's "Attack of the Show!" and if you don't, you should. This Sunday at New York Comic Con, Butler is set to bring her expertise and insight on comics and video games to the Dark Horse Video Games and Comics Panel, where she'll be hosting a conversation on all aspects of bringing some beloved video-game franchises to the comics page. The panel, which takes place from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in Room 1A22, is described on NYCC's website thusly: "As the lines of pop culture blur video games and comics, a slew of popular characters and franchises cross platforms. Join representatives from Dark Horse Comics, as we explore this growing comics phenomenon. Guests include Mass Effect lead writer, Mac Walters, artist Omar Francia, as well as Star Wars: The Old Republic—Blood of the Empire artist Dave Ross, as well as inker, Mark McKenna."Sounds awesome, right? Well now it's slam packed with 100 percent more Blair Butler! Even if awesomer was a word, it would still fall short of what this panel just became! If you're a fan of storytelling in comics and video games or just a nut about pop-culture crossover, this is a panel you can't miss!
