Comic-Con: Apatow's Comic Foil
Judd Apatow's Superbad panel was one of the comedy highlights of a very comedic Comic-Con. Here's LAT writer Sheigh Crabtree's take.
While many folks were blogging from The Con, I found it strange that the LAT and EW insisted on editing their bloggers before posting them, with inevitable time delays. The writers were timely, but their posts were not. An edited blog is not a blog, in my view. That said, next year I humbly request a live-posting photographer. We had some terrific shooters at the Con from our online staff, but they didn't get the photos up until after the weekend. I'm going to take a badly needed digital photo course, but still, at one point after Nora left, I was sitting at one panel downloading photos into my laptop, then shooting pictures and taking notes at the same time, not to mention bleary-eyed editing into the wee hours. I have reams of material I have yet to post, because yesterday I was posting other folks' reports (with help from online staffer Erin Maxwell) and writing stories for the daily.

Fun times sitting with you and Marc. I think you and Nora did superlative work!
