Nothing Venture Brothered, Nothing Gained
No real news to speak of, but Adult Swim released the footage of the Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick-led Venture Bros. Dragon Con panel, and it’s notable for two reasons: 1) it’s viewable by our friends in foreign lands (so I’m told, please correct me if I’ve been misled) and 2) it’s been edited. If you’re not impressed by the latter, then clearly you’ve never watched a con panel, live or recorded before — gone are the slow bits, the moving around, the stupid questions from stupid fans… this is just the good stuff, and it’s wonderful. Everyone should do this for every con panel ever.
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
