There's more good news for fans going to the second Kapow! Comic Convention this weekend, as legendary Star Wars producer Rick McCallum has joined the Momentum Showcase panel to present footage from Red Tails and hopefully answer questions from fans (fingers crossed for an update on the live action Star Wars TV series). British writer and director Gareth Evans will also be there to discuss The Raid.

Yes, [frick] Rick McCallum.

George's "yes" man. Equally responsible for the suckage that was the Star Wars prequels.
