<p>The Comic Book Club celebrated its 1-year anniversary at The PIT with a SOLD OUT show featuring comic book fans Bill Hader & Seth Meyers and three of the biggest writers at Marvel Comics, Matt Fraction (Iron Fist, Punisher War Journal), Brian Michael Bendis (New Avengers, Ultimate Spiderman), and Ed Brubaker (Uncanny X-Men, Captain America, Criminal).</p>

<p>NOTES</p>
<p>--The writers were in town for a semi-annual event called the Marvel Creative Summit, a continental congress for every writer and editor at Marvel to brainstorm and map out storylines for the upcoming year.</p>
<p>--When asked to reveal some details from the summit the audience guffawed when Bendis sarcastically said, "Alpha Flight is the new X-Men." Seth Meyers sat visibly befuddled through a couple nerdcore wisecracks such as this before saying, "I'm counting how many jokes will only get a laugh from this crowd."</p>
<p>--Bill Hader's impression of a dying Tauntaun was perhaps one of those jokes. We found it funny though.</p>
<p>--Seth and Bill revealed that when Natalie Portman was a guest on SNL, she stunned the writers' room during a read-through when she mispronounced the word Dagobah.</p>
<p>--According to the THE NEW YORK TIMES PROFILE ON THE COMIC BOOK CLUB, "[LePage, Tyler, and Zalben] have parlayed the show into a gig for PulpSecret.com, a Web site devoted, of course, to comics. Their video version of 'The Stack' offers three in-depth reviews of comics and a seven-minute 'speed round' packed with topics. On YouTube, one clip of the show received more than 15,000 views. Mr. Zalben recalled being in line to see 'Beowulf' when he met a man who said, 'Thank you for everything you do.'"</p>
