Comic-Con: Your Rescource for Multiple Jackie Os and Half-Naked Spartacuses

Hey guys, sorry. I've been busy over here at Comic-Con. Busy doing what? Oh, you know: hanging out with four Jackie Kennedys and four bulging Spartacuses. Do you smell a love connection?

Sadly, my matchmaking was thwarted when the Spartacuses appeared to be same-sex oriented (they're Greek, it's expected), but I found the Jackies much more chatty. What exactly was a pack of pillboxers doing at this comic-book convention?

One of the Jackies urgently pressed a card into my head. On it, a message in red letters: "DID LSD KILL JFK?"

"We're promoting the new project by Tim Kring, the guy who did Heroes," one said. "It's about the LSD generation, and mayyyybe it was involved in the Kennedy assassination? Maybe?"

I was disappointed. "So you're not promoting Katie Holmes as Jackie Kennedy?"

Jackie 1.0 grimaced, and the others followed suit. "We're so much better than her."
