If you're heading to the Tucson Comic-Con this weekend (and you should, because admission is cheap and it'll be a lot of fun), be sure to look for Range contributor/Best of Tucsontm honoree Eric Esquivel, who will be all over the place, talking, signing and selling things, and generally being a cool guy.
Want to ask Eric questions? Catch him at a panel talking to comic book writers, and a panel for a book he worked on, Zombies vs. Cheerleaders.
Below the cut, descriptions of the books he'll be selling and pretty pictures of the covers!

Ostensibly, this is a discussion of a comic book, but at some point, it becomes a conversation about father figures, non-traditional families and the process of mentoring. Also, Eric and Arnie argue for a bit.

It turns out Batman Odyssey is not the tale of Bruce Wayne embarking on a long journey home after war, written in epic verse. Still might be interesting, however.

Eric seems happier this week as he and Arnie from Heroes and Villains discuss Luthor Strode, which is good. I was worried about him.

Eric really hates the new fish-eating Aquaman. Hates everything about it. Arnie doesn't seem to feel quite as strongly.
Eric and Arnie are from Best of Tucson winner Heroes and Villains. Check it out, but don't make Eric sell you the Aquaman. That would be mean.

I don't personally see a lot of comic criticism and discussion, but I suspect that this video has one of the rare mentions of NAMBLA regarding the genre. Also, Eric and Arnie talk about the new Batman comic, which they like. So there's that, too.

This week, Eric and Arnie discuss (the new) Action Comics #1. The last time there was an Action Comics #1, it introduced Superman and became one of the most valuable comic books of all time. No pressure for this one, I suppose.

This week, Eric and Arnie discuss an obscure selection from a small press comic imprint and the lasting social implications...no, not really. They talk about JLA #1 from the DC Universe reboot. Of course they do, silly.
