Baltimore Comic Con (BCC) invited Jimmy down at the last minute to be on a panel remembering his close friend John Cassaday. Besides Jimmy, Scott Dunbier (former Wildstorm EIC), Heidi MacDonald (The Beat EIC), Albert Moy (John's art dealer) and Joe Rybandt (Dynamite Entertainment Executive Editor) were on the panel as well. They shared stories of times together, his work, how they met and more. Dean Haspiel also told a great story from the audience. Some other audience members told short stories of meeting him and how kind he was to them. We told some fun stories and some more serious ones and it got very emotional at times. You'll hear the whole panel. Thanks to Bob Harrison for hosting and big thanks to Brad Tree of BCC for everything.
Jimmy also briefly talks about his short time at the show (he only was there on Sunday) and running into mutual friends. Sharing stories, crying together, laughing together and more. It was comforting and somewhat cathartic and part of the reason he went. To be surrounded by so many of John's friends. Jimmy also comments on the show a bit as he walked around before and after the panel.
Thanks for listening.

Our dear friend John Cassaday passed away on September 9th. As many know, Jimmy was one of his best pals. As you can imagine, he is devastated. We are doing a couple of special episodes to honor his memory. John was a big supporter of our podcast from the very beginning. He came on only a handful of times or so in the early days and let us find our feet after that. He was always one to let his work speak for itself and we respected that. We put together a compilation of some of the episodes he was on including Episodes 18, 50, 100 and 200. As said, early days. We think you'll love hearing John talk about his work back then as these date from 2005-2009. Such an incredibly talented and kind man. One of the best comic book artists ever and a true friend. His work will live on.
Next episode, Jimmy asked some of John's friends/colleagues to send in their memories of him. How they met, his work, a favorite story and more. Jimmy talks of their friendship and shares a few stories as well. It will be an emotional one for sure. Come back later this week to listen.
