• Hey, we’re back with a long overdue update — Sorry about the delays, it’s that time of summer when the weekends get busy and it seems like there’s not enough time in a day to accomplish what you’d like. We’re back now and have stockpiled all the latest for ya, so you didn’t miss a beat. Today there’s more from the San Diego con (better late than never), and of course those wonderful NewsBites that seem to be so popular when there’s not a lot of major stuff going on. We’ve got a new poll on the way today, too. Let’s roll:

• It took a while for material to surface from Kev’s con appearance, but today we’re happy to have quite a few pieces of media from the show. First off, Aint It Cool ran a small piece that summarized a few of the goings-on at the panel. Nothing really different than we reported, though it does allude to the fact that both Brodie and Banky will appear in View Askew 5, which we’re sure will happen, but hasn’t been out and out verified yet.

IGN reveals that Kevin did mention again at the con that they’re still expecting to have that Clerks Animated Series DVD ready in January, so it seems that things are going well on that one. With commentary, storyboards, and lots more, we can’t wait.

Coolest of all, thanks to the CHUD website, we’ve got 2 clips from the webmasters panel, featuring Kevin and that famous jab he made at Ron Wells. Surf HERE to check out the clips in RealPlayer format.

Finally, we’ve got a couple shots of Kev, Jennifer, and Harley on the scene. Great looking family Kev’s got there.

• In the latest Dork Tower comic (#9, Dork Storm Press, by John Kovalic, cover by Dave Sim of “Cerebus” fame) there’s a one page comic all about fanboy envy of Kevin and his multi-faceted success. Well worth checking out.
• Daily Radar has named Clerks as one of the “Top 10 Best Work Movies”.
• The highly addictive Hollywood Stock Exchange website is now offering stock in View Askew 5 (VIEW5). Get in on the IPO on what’s sure to be a big moneymaker!
• A VA movie sees a mention in some Hoyle Movie Pocket Trivia cards — Card #49 asks, “Who played the role of the comic book artist in ‘Chasing Amy’?” They post the answer as Ben Affleck, but considering most of the main characters could be considered artists, there’s lots of correct answers.
• Joey Lauren Adams plays a horny philosophy professor in “Harvard Man”. Do we have your attention now? Find out more in this article with Ms. Adams at the Canoe website.
• The Fletch Won website is starting a petition to get the original Fletch flicks on DVD. If you’re a fan, surf on over and lend your name.
• Priscilla Barnes, everyone’s favorite three-nippled topless psychic, is appearing on the Sci-Fi Channel’s new Invisible Man series. By the way, “Hollow Man” this Friday! Be there.
