Dr. Bruce and Stephe are en route to Austin Comic Con, where the streets will soon run with Geeky effluent of all manner. It's cool though.

Standing 8 Count Back in November at Wizard World - Texas, we were fortunate enough to meet Daffney. You may remember her as David Flair's screamer in the WCW, or you may recognize her as TNA's "Sarah Palin."
