Ladies and gentlemen, today we get swallowed into the belly of the geek beast. No, not Harry Knowles. Comic-Con. (…Or, as the ancient Aztecs called it, “Kahmik-K’ahan.”)

COMIC-CON 2007: Kevin Murphy in Rifftrax-issued L.B.P.’s.

Michael J. Nelson, Kevin Murphy and myself will be at various places at various times signing stuff, drawing little […]

Ever the good son, Conor cheered on his mom in a post earlier today. (Wishing you victory in the photo contest, Mrs. ConorsMom. You’re going down, cute baby picture!!)
Made me feel a little guilty for not cheerleading my own mom here at the Rifftrax Blog. Though technically she now qualifies […]

Clearly, I am a man who values his dignity.  But occasionally, under extraordinary circumstances, I’m willing to do something slightly foolish - as long as there’s a good reason. Be it raising money for charity, attending a costume party, or walking down the street dressed like an idiot to see what people do, some things […]

And if you think these guys aren’t the Original Original Gangstaz, then you never saw what happened to people who dissed Wilkins Coffee. (To repeat:)

While attending The Con, be sure to take the short hike* to the Borders on 6th Avenue:

Because while Keanu Reeves’ presence is surely to be the most buzzed about thing at The Con, and the Dark Knight exclusives are sure to go fast, you won’t want to miss the Buy One, Get One […]

Did I say “in?” Sorry, meant “on.”

As we prepare to descend into the valley of the uber-geek, we present another sketch of one of our favorite con archetypes, this time drawn by Mike. Many years ago. If you happen to look like this guy, please remember that we kid because we love.

HUGE Post-Cyberpunk Fan.

It’s Comic-Con time, and the folks at Legend Films are busily prepping our own Mike Nelson for his appearance at the Rifftrax/Legend Films Booth, and of course for Rifftrax Live Saturday at the gorgeous Balboa Theater. It’s no easy task - Mike has been broken down into his component parts, shrink-wrapped and packed into seventeen […]

Consider:

N.B.: The Slimsticks are free. What with the high price of Slimsticks these days, I’d advise anyone to seize this opportunity.

Received this in a mostly-defunct mailbox the other day:

FROM: bellsouth.net
SUBJECT: hi there pyrophosphate
Well, I’m just gobsmacked by this one. How did some spammers (apparently from the South, where I’ve never lived!) know the nickname I’ve cherished since third grade?

A real stumper.
sincerely,

It will all have been a big sad joke if after these earthbound days are over, my final resting place is not listed in Find A Grave.

Good to have an pre-arranged exit, in case you plan on going zombie (as I do).

And if I still live in Minnesota — more accurately, if I still […]

On those rare occasions when I show people something I’ve drawn, the most common reaction I get is, “Oh, you poor thing. Was it a farm accident?” For you see, they wrongly assume that my hands must have been caught up in a tractor’s PTO and left mangled and nearly useless. (I suppose they assume, […]

“Time” in this case equalling me. Apologies.

For a reminder of what this rather odd contest was about, click here. Warning: it involves a very young, quite enraged, woman-hatin’ Joey Lawrence.
Congratulations to all contestants: you are smart, you are funny, and some of you are frightening. […]

Why in the name of all that is good and holy would you strive for this look?
