TAKEDOWN: THE DEFUSER!

One of the many wonderful things about attending Conventions is the opportunity to meet some terrific people — and none have been more sparkling, energetic personalities than JARRETT CRIPPEN and his wife NORMA. 

Jarrett, of course, is the recent the second-season winner of Stan Lee’s TV series WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPERHERO?  Jarrett and his wonderful wife not only do the Convention circuit to promote his character, Jarrett is a superhero out of costume, fighting crime as a Texas-based real-life police officer.  He also uses his new-found celebrity to promote safety awareness for kids and to raise money for such children’s charities as Scare For a Cure.  (To find out more and to donate, please go to www.scareforacure.org)

So it’s with pardonable pride that I get to hang out at Cons with Jarrett.  Here are a few photos of Jarrett and his wife and me, from our most recent Convention together.  At 6’4”, with those muscles and handsome face, he really is the embodiment of a superhero.  :)

And for those of you wondering if I’m still doing any Conventions in costume, this should be the proof that I do!

What’s more, I also got to hang out with novelist MORT CASTLE, who literally wrote the book on writing horror fiction!  If you don’t know who he is, shame on you!  Look up Mort Castle on Amazon.com, buy a couple of his books, and prepare to be impressed — and scared!
