		<description><![CDATA[We headed out to take part in Free Comic Book Day at Laughing Ogre Comics in Fairfax, Virginia. I go to this shop a few times a year, and it was obvious that the day&#8217;s festivities certainly drew a good-sized crowd. There were still plenty of free comics available in the middle of the afternoon, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I may not actively collected comic books anymore, but I love visiting the local comic shops on Free Comic Book Day because the kids have a blast. Some comic shops go all out with freebies and costumed characters, making for a terrific family outing. Here&#8217;s a picture from the Laughing Ogre comic shop in Fairfax, [...]]]></description>

While each of these posters is fantastic in its own right, I really wish Mondo would have gone with one artist for the series.  It would have been great to see a series similar to Olly Moss&#8217; or Tyler [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am blessed with two wonderful sons who are just getting into superheroes and action figures. After watching the Avengers cartoon and seeing all the hype for the upcoming movie, my youngest started carrying around an Iron Man action figure (which just warmed dear old dad&#8217;s heart). The other day he told me that Iron [...]]]></description>

Sure this poster isn&#8217;t the most amazing poster ever, but I&#8217;m beginning to get more than a little excited about this movie. The poster might look like a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Morgan Spurlock, of Supersize Me fame, shot this movie at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con, and it looks like it might actually embrace all the geekiness rather than mock it (which is refreshing!). I doubt I&#8217;ll ever make it to Comic-Con, but I will definitely make it to this movie.]]></description>

Usually when you see Lego photos, the entire scene is built out of the colored bricks, but I&#8217;m not that talented, so much like what they do in the video games, I used a more realistic backdrop.
