Most artists who have drawn characters for Champions of the Galaxy have not been familiar with the game and its fans when tapped to make the visual representations of the men and women who do battle in our far-flung future.  Werner Mueck not only knew what COTG was when he became the official artist for the Promoter Madness sets (and now for POW, as well), he had done possibly hundreds of bootleg characters for game fans before getting a regular job from Filsinger Games.  As a result, his artwork has consistently shown a dedication to the concepts the game embodies, and as anyone who has worked with him (myself included) can tell you, he's everything you want in a collaborator -- quick but thorough, creative but able to work within a framework, and above all a guy not to take himself too seriously.  You'll see what I mean in this post-GalactiCon conversation with perhaps the most prolific artist in COTG history.

Running time: about 17 minutes.

Now that President Prodigy has informed the fans of the POW that teams will be reinstated at the start of 2123, we have to know: Who's getting together with who?  It's true, some old alliances are being reestablished, but there are some new groupings that might surprise you.  Also, one tag team has already said they won't be together in the coming year.  Which one?  What other rumors are flying about as-yet-undeclared fighters?  Trent's got some information you're going to want to hear!

Thayne and Ahnu are locked in a closely-contested struggle for the freedom of a cherished icon – a wife and children to one, a revered religious leader to the other.  But right now, the race is too close to call.  What's Trent been hearing about how Dar Gova plans to have his Jardiil fighter pull away and win the war?  And does Thayne have any plans of his own to counter?

Finally, what's the name Iron Hand doing in a POW broadcast?  You'll just have to listen to find out!

Running time: about 16 minutes
