We get all kinds of awesome folks coming through Marvel HQ. Case in point, we recently had a visit from New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano.
Robinson is a big fan of Marvel's The Avengers--ask him about Tony Stark's Acura--and got a first-rate tour of our office from Arune Singh, Marvel's Director of Communications. Ben Morse and I also sat down with Robinson to record an episode of our This Week in Marvel interview podcast. The podcast will be live on Tuesday June 5, but for now enjoy some photos of Robinson's visit to Marvel HQ, taken by Judith Stephens. Oh, and be sure to follow @RobinsonCano on Twitter, learn about Robinson's charity--the RC 24 Foundation and ...

Late last week, I had the pleasure of giving a tour of Marvel HQ to Danny Pudi who plays Abed on the show "Community."
Danny was INCREDIBLY nice and was happy to find out that nearabouts the entire Marvel office loves his character and his show. He took photos with many of us here at Marvel and then Ben Morse and I recorded an interview with Danny for our This Week in Marvel podcast. The interview will go up in the coming weeks, but I wanted to share the photos now! Check out the photos taken by Judy Stephens below, and follow @DannyPudi on Twitter!

Earlier this week I had three rad dudes from the band Mayday Parade up at Marvel.com. They got a crash course in comic book editing from Bill Rosemann, hammed it up with Steve Wacker and talked Deadpool with Nick Lowe and Jordan White. Fun for all! Check out the photos taken by Judy Stephens below, read our Marvel Life interview with Mayday Parade bassist Jeremy Lenzo and follow @Mayday_Parade on Twitter! Me with Mayday Parade members Jake Bundrick, Derek Sanders and Jeremy Lenzo at Marvel HQ in NYC:

A few weeks back, the dudes from New Found Glory visited me here at Marvel HQ to shoot some video, steal some comics and generally goof off. Which is fine with me. They're pals and I like seeing them when I can. I'm actually heading out to see them tonight in NYC on their big Pop Punk's Not Dead tour. Anyway, check out the photos that Judy Stephens took of NFG with me, Marvel Comics Editor in Chief Axel Alonso, editor Jordan White and Social Media Coordinator Janna O'Shea:
Check out newfoundglory.com for tour dates, music and more and follow 'em on twitter at @newfoundglory. Oh, and check out their new record Radiosurgery. It's great! \m/ \m/ --Agent M ...

The House of Ideas was recently paid a visit by Henry Kaye (guitarist) and Ian Devaney (singer) of the band The Static Jacks. Their PR folks randomly sent me their new album, "If You're Young," and after giving it a listen, I was hooked. So I reached out to see if the boys in the band were Marvel Comics fans--and of course they were! So I showed Henry and Ian around, then sent off a few questions to test their Marvel mettle!
Agent M: Who are your favorite Marvel characters? Henry: It's the old standard but I have to say Spider-Man. I feel like a lot of musicians can probably relate to Peter Parker's social awkwardness and struggles with girls. It definitely rang some bells with me. I recently got SPIDER-MAN: BLUE by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale. I loved it. Tim

Yesterday, I shared a few photos of The Misfits--one of my all-time favorite bands--visiting us here at Marvel HQ. But, between Judy Stephens and our video crew, we took a ton of photos! So, below, you'll find the rest of the day's photos. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for my interview with The Misfits on Marvel.com and Marvel's YouTube channel! And, of course, visit misfits.com and look out for their new album, "The Devil's Rain," on sale October 4!

Today we had legendary punk rock band The Misfits come by Marvel HQ! I brought them around for a tour of Marvel Comics, they met some editors (who are also fans!) and we shot a video interview. The video will be on Marvel.com soon, but our crack photographer Judy Stephens took a ton of great photos. I've been super super busy, but I wanted to share a few photos from today. More photos, and more details, tomorrow!

This post has been a few weeks comin', but it's finally here. I got a PR email from one of my music contacts with info on upcoming Jonathan Coulton goodness and reached out to see if the geektastic singer-songwriter (You know the songs from the Portal video games? He made those.) would want to visit us at Marvel HQ for a tour and some fun times. Seems like a natural fit, right? There's lotsa audience crossover and he has plenty of fans here at the House of Ideas (including me, natch), so I was happy to hear he was on board. When I emailed folks in the office to let them know he was coming through, I got a particularly large number of very excited replies. Funny enough, someone I DIDN'T email about JoCo coming was AMAZING SPIDER-MAN writer Dan Slott. But word spread and he called

A few weeks ago, Adam Lazzara and John Nolan from the band Taking Back Sunday stopped by Marvel HQ in NYC for a visit. I've been listening to them for years and we even come from the same music scene (LIHC represent!), so it was fun chatting with them and showing them around the House of Ideas. Adam and John are both Marvel fans, and we've interviewed them both on Marvel.com. You can read our interview with Adam here and our recent feature with John here. They're awesome dudes and we had fun strolling through Marvel. Check out some photos (taken by Judy Stephens) below:

A few weeks back, singer Mike Moynihan and guitarist Matt Fox from the stellar metal band Shai Hulud stopped by Marvel HQ. I've been listening to them since 1997, so it was my pleasure to show them how we do things here. Fortunately, the dudes really appreciated seeing Marvel, since they're legit True Believers. I even asked Matt a few questions to gauge just how geeky they are. Agent M: Who’s your favorite Marvel character? Matt Fox: As cruel as it is to put one over all others… I'd have to say Taa's last remaining son Galan, colloquially known throughout the universe as GALACTUS. Why? He devours worlds. Agent M: What’s your oldest memory of Marvel comics? Matt Fox: As far back as I can remember I always loved Marvel's super heroes but |
