Yep, for the first time, I'll be doing sketch cards. Hoping to see lots of faces, new and old, this time 'round...

Seems Neil DeGrasse Tyson's been asked to weigh in for DC's current editorial purposes which star and where in our sky we can find it.

I remember back in the late 1980's that John Byrne referred to an unidentified red dwarf located "50 light-years away", partly out of respect for the 50th anniversary of the Superman franchise's founding. I don't think the star in question was ever specifically nailed down by name or catalogue number, although a number of amateur and professional astronomers have come up with usable maps and lists and posted or otherwise published them so that the public - science-fiction, fantasy and super-hero writers among them - could have their own fun with the material.

Before Byrne, there was Elliot S! Maggin with his statement about Antares in either Miracle Monday or Last Son of Krypton. Not sure which novel it was.

And did Mark Waid say something in Birthright about the Andromeda Galaxy?

Went and saw this gentleman tonight at the National Gallery Auditorium. Not sure if I'll be posting my impressions here or at Spacing Ottawa, but I'm leaning to the latter at the moment. Will let you know ASAP...
