C4 is Northern Michigan’s largest comic book and pop entertainment expo. Located at the scenic Grand Traverse Resort, C4 is Northern Michigan’s perfect gathering of comic book creators, exhibitors, and fans. Cherry Capital Comic Con (C4) is a comic book convention that celebrates the medium of comics, rather than a specific genre. At C4, all comics are equal, as are their creators and their fans. The organizers of C4 intend to prove to the world that comic conventions – just like comic fans and the comics, themselves – don’t have to be “this” or “that”. They can just be what they are…which is simply “cool”. Connect with your favorite creators at a variety of panels. Meet up and coming talent in Artist’s Alley. Find great deals on comics and collectable merchandise at our gathering of exhibitors. Participate in our costume contest, with categories for both adults and children.

During my initial interview with, podcaster supreme Ming Chen, I had to skip numerous questions due to time constraints. Since Ming was down for another interview, we dove into the other topics. Metroid, comics that ended too soon, traditional comic strips, A Tribe Called Quest, and concerts were among the numerous things we talked about in this long form interview. Put it on in the background and enjoy.
*Note* For some reason, my mike cut out for a good portion of the interview. I had to go back and do voice over for myself. If it sounds a little off, that’s why.
