Some have called the spectacle of pro wrestling “a comic book come to life.” That is not far from the truth. From the heroics of Hulk Hogan to the anti-heroics of “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and the villainy of Ric Flair, this panel explores the parallels in character development and storyline advancement between these outrageous forms. Featuring Paul London (Hero of the Prophecy), Jonathan London (Geekscape), Rik Offenberger (First Comics News, G-Man Comics), Francis Szyskowski (The Massacre Twins), Todd Tochioka (Image Comics), R.C. Samo (Fanboy Nation), Anthony Ray Bench (Attack of the Doc), and Flobo Boyce (Knew Amsterdam). Moderated by Joshua Waldrop (Ultima Comics)
