Historian and comic book author Van Plexico joined me on a panel asking whether revisionist history was the new fantasy. Incredibly, fans in the Sci-Fi & Fantasy Literature track were not only awake on Monday at 10AM, closely following Dragon*Con’s last late-night activities, they were exceptionally erudite and thoughtful.

Jack Foley in HBO’s Band of Brothers.
Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) and James and Oliver Phelps (Fred and George Weasley), the busy stars of the Harry Potter movies, kindly agreed to adjust their schedules to answer a few questions for the Daily Dragon.
The Parsec Awards, a "Celebration of Speculative Fiction Podcasting," were established in 2006, dedicated to rewarding excellence in various aspects of Speculative Fiction Podcasting—available for both Sci-fi & Fantasy Original Content, podiobooks, and a variety of other categories dealing with the new frontiers of Portable Media.
Saturday night, artists gathered in excited anticipated for the Art Show awards, presented by celebrated artist Todd Lockwood. The awards consisted of three categories: the Special Awards (people’s choice), the Treasure Chest Charity Art Project (the charity art project), and the Juried Awards.
Artist Don Matz, who judged the treasure chests, could not attend because he was currently judging the Dawn Look-alike contest. A member of the audience joked that Matz was judging "another kind of chest."
And the winners of the 2007 Dragon*Con Independent Film Festival are:
Best Short Film: "Jakob and the Angels"
Best Animated Film: "Operation: Fish"
Honorable Mention: "Thanksgiving with the Kranzes"
