About the
Staff:
Derek
McCaw - Editor-In-Chief
Derek juggles his time as a high school English teacher,
a husband, father, writer, actor, and occasionally funny
comedian. As an actor/comedian, he has been found at ComedySportz,
Calaveras
Repertory Theatre, City
Lights Theater Company, The Big Stinkin’ Improv Festival,
and the HBO Workspace. As part of the comedy troupe Mumblypeg,
he even has a few copies of his comedy album left. As a
writer, his rantings have been published on ActionAce, Daily
Radar, Fanboy Planet, Once Upon A Dime, and The
Wave, while a series of short one-act plays of his had
a successful run at City Lights in December 2002. In addition
to writing two issues of Tony Loco for Illusive
Arts Entertainment, Derek now also serves as an editor for
Catastrophic Comics.
Michael
Goodson - Videogame Editor, Swag Mooch
Michael Goodson was born and lives in San
Jose, California. Having followed wrestling since childhood,
he put his talents to use in a weekly wrestling column for
DailyRadar.com. Then they went out of business. In 2000
Derek and Michael started FanboyPlanet.com. After writing
hundreds of wrestling columns, Buffy and Justice League
reviews, Michael sold his share in the company in 2006 for
one box of HeroClix. It contained 4 rookie Aquamans.
CURRENT CONTRIBUTORS:
Mario
Anima - Technical
Editor
In the
years since he foolishly said, "hey, I'd like to review
Teen Titans for you guys," Mario has rendered
himself almost indispensable. Bravely, he has soldiered
on since the Titans left the air, tackling Lost,
occasional movies and helping behind-the-scenes wherever
he can.
Troy
Benson - Ranting
Editor
Mild-mannered
Troy Benson runs a petting zoo and offers legal advice to
comic book characters.
Ric
Bretschneider - Podcast
Producer
Fanboy
Planet moral compass and "sound guy." Ric pops
up where you least expect him. Let's just say that he knows
where the bodies are buried, and leave it at that.
Christopher
J. Garcia - Wrestling
Editor
Harlan
Ellison once called Chris Garcia "the devil."
Who are we to disagree?
Jamie
Kelwick - British
Editor
By day,
Jamie eats, breathes and sleeps film, working as a movie
critic for BBC-Radio Humberside and teaching feckless youth
about the beauty of French New Wave Cinema. At least, that's
what he does when I imagine his job.
Lon
Lopez - Moron
Life Editor
Actually,
Lon thinks he runs Moronlife.com,
but he has joined the staff of Fanboy Planet as a contributor
on the podcast, and it will only get worse from there. They
don't call it a PODcast for nothing...
Steph
Rodriguez - Podcast
Archivist, Lighting Designer and Writer
It all
started because she had the makings of a Zorlac, remembering
obscure details of podcasts and then knowing the difference
between an ellipsoidal and a Source-4. Now she writes about
geek events at UCLA and hops in her TARDIS to cover Doctor
Who.
Mish'al
Samman - Asia
Editor
Mish'al
has now moved to the greater Los Angeles area, where he
still steeps himself in Japanese culture while taking acting
classes.
Tim
Watson - Comic
Book Store Clerk Editor
The
fool kept hanging around our podcast until we gave him something
to do. Come to think of it, that's how he ended up working
at the comic book store, too.
