PTG Episode 107 is brought to you by Heroes Landing. Thanks again to Todd and Stu for supporting our recent Facebook Fan Page drive–monetary incentive works EVERY time! If you’re in the Clermont area this weekend and you’re a Star Wars fan, then you’re GOING to want to stop by Heroes Landing on Saturday and be a part of the Star Wars Grand Florida Alliance meeting going on there from 5-9PM. As we’ve mentioned on the show a number of times these past few weeks, renowned sculptor and production designer Brian Muir, who has worked on some of the most well-known film franchises in Hollywood history, will be on hand to talk about his autobiography, In the Shadow of Vader, and to meet fans and answer questions. Should be a great night, so be sure and stop by!

In this episode we cover the announcement of the 2010 Will Eisner Award nominees, awarded each year for excellence in the comics industry. Certainly a lot of names on the list will be familiar if you listen to PTG on a regular basis, and not all of them because we’ve been praising them all along. There’s one nominee that I personally have a problem with, and seeing his name on the list was ALMOST enough to start a vintage “Felix is Fuming” rant. But since we’ve retired that segment for the sake of my listeners ears and my blood pressure, it’s merely a … heated monologue, rather than a rant. Also in this episode, PTG Flash Reviews returns to FlashForward, getting caught up five episodes into the second half of Season One, and also to Fringe, which gets back to a more conventional (for that show) style episode, complete with gross-out opening minutes and some seriously bizarre Walter Bishop culinary multitasking. We wrap up by spotlighting two Superman titles that shipped last week, Superman: Last Stand of New Krypton #2 (eh) and Superman: Secret Origin #5 (improving!). Enjoy!
