About Us

Derek McCaw – Editor-In-Chief

Derek works as a writer, actor, and occasionally funny comedian. As an actor/comedian, he has been found at ComedySportz, The Big Stinkin’ Improv Festival, and the HBO Workspace. He has fulfilled many of his childhood dreams, including becoming a presenter on BBC-Radio. If you owned a Macintosh in the late 90s, you heard his voice taunting you as the Weasel in Eric’s Ultimate Solitaire.

Derek wrote two issues of Tony Loco with Mark Teague for Illusive Arts Entertainment, edited Sparks for Catastrophic Comics (now a major motion picture!), wrote The Greatest American Hero with William Katt and Chris Folino for Catastrophic/Arcana, and contributed stories to Bela Lugosi’s Tales from the Grave from Monsterverse Comics. His latest book, I Was Flesh Gordon, is now available from McFarland Books and Amazon.

CURRENT CONTRIBUTORS

Ric Bretschneider – Podcast Producer, Columnist, Writer

When Ric Bretschneider isn’t producing the Fanboy Planet Podcast, he obsessively collects geek activities. If you Google him, you’d swear you’re looking at five different guys. A professional software developer for decades, your computer likely has at least one application he’s worked on. He consults with individuals and groups on how to effectively present and engage an audience. Lately he’s been into pro and fan applications of e-communities and podcasting. When he has a moment, Ric reads books and comics, and plays analog board and card games. He’s here to help people, it’s what he does.
