  • Stuff at this panel is recap from previous #DC panels (Green Lantern:Rise Of The Third Army,etc.).Useful if u only had Sunday pass, I guess. #
  • At least Dan DiDio and Jim Lee generate a palpable and honest enthusiasm about the #DC line that makes me mind the lack of new info less. #
  • Jim Lee is discussing 10 page Digital First .99 cent books. New titles daily from Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman families. #DC #SDCC #
  • If you don't do digital, all titles will be bound for traditional publishing at "a later date". #DC #SDCC #
  • Joe Kubert Presents – series of one shots. Looks good! #DC #SDCC #
  • Also reviewing MAD magazine and Get Jiro. More nontraditional graphic offerings now available through #DC #Vertigo. #SDCC #
  • Interesting to hear Jim Lee talk about Get Jiro- fascinated by the obscure food stuff, like the ortolan scene.Serious, geniune enthusiam.#DC #
  • Jim Lee also worried Anthony Bourdain would "eat his baby" when they met. DiDio checks w/Wayne to see if they've "gone off message". #DC #

  • Dan DiDio – There were 2 months where Aquaman beat the entire Marvel line up. Oh, Dan… #DC #SDCC #
  • Jim Lee – DiDio hired other artists to draw JL behind his back b/c of his tendency to run late. He was outraged, but liked the art.#DC #SDCC #
  • DiDio on his chemistry w/ Bob Wayne at panels – "We drink heavily before panels." Wayne – "And we practice b4 we get here." #DC #SDCC #
  • Jim Lee – Don't try to draw Batman; try to draw Mr. Potato Head with Bat ears. #DC #SDCC #wordsofwisdom #
