A recap of our Comic-Con chat with G4’s @AOTS and Blair Butler

Last night we co-hosted a chat on Twitter with Shorty #television winner Attack of the Show (@AOTS), from G4TV. Comic expert and @AOTS corresponded Blair Butler (@TheBlairButler) answered questions about social media, Comic-Con, her new comic book and even about Ben & Jerry’s ice cream! Here are some highlights from the fans that asked questions:

@CherryGarcia: If we (Ben & Jerry’s) were to create a super-hero flavor, what ingredients should go into it?

@AOTS:  So much pressure. Peanut butter and Kryptonite?


@ShortyAwards: What are some recommendations for people new to comics?

@AOTS: The Walking Dead is a great “gateway drug” to comics. I also love Y The Last Man and Locke & Key.


@ShortyAwards: Who’s the funniest comic character and why?

@AOTS: I’m embarrassed to admit that Daniel Clowes’ NSFW comic “Wilson” made me laugh out loud. A lot. Funniest misanthrope in comics…


@BRW_549: If there was one comic book you could re-write, which one would it be?

@AOTS: That one is wicked tough. But I’ve always wanted to write (re-wirte?) a story about the New Mutants’ Karma…


@haffathot: What do you think will be the biggest change in the DC universe post-Flashpoint?

@AOTS: I think SUPERMAN is going to be quite different! But Grant Morrison is writing — and he did my favorite Supes story: All Star Superman


@monita113: What celebrities will be at #SDCC?

@AOTS: Chris Evans, THE CAST OF GAME OF THRONES OMG!!! nerding out!


Thanks for joining the chat, enjoy G4’s coverage of Comic-Con and stay tuned for our next chat!
