Newly returned WWE star Rob Van Dam is part of a Comic-Con panel tonight discussing the connections between comics and professional wrestling. The description for the session, entitled "Not So Strange Bedfellows: The Relationship Between Comics and Pro Wrestling" reads:

Some have called the spectacle of pro wrestling a "comic book come to life." That is not so far from the truth. From the heroics of Hulk Hogan, antiheroes such as John Cena, and villains like Ric Flair, come and explore the parallels that exist in character development and storyline advancement between these outrageous forms of narrative presented by architects from both worlds. Featuring Rik Offenberger (First Comic News.com), Francis Szyskowski (The Massacre Twins), Todd Tochioka (Working Snug.com), Scott Lost (Scott Lost-Art), and international wrestling superstar Rob Van Dam (WWE Monday Night Raw). Moderated by Joshua Waldrop (M1W Entertainment).

Shore's Slant: The session is tonight at 8:00 p.m. If anyone is going to this panel we would love to have a report on it. Drop us a line at dotnetjason@gmail.com if you go and let us know how it was.
