I just spent a fascinating afternoon at Austin Market Research watching Jon-Eric and Jessica Steinbomer conduct three focus groups. I sat with Jessica, Amberlin, our host Shawn and our friend Venda on the client side of the one way glass while Jon-Eric and Darren had their way with our guests. Three groups were asked a battery of questions including "what is a villain?" before being presented with the our list of names and identities. Some interesting patterns emerged. One interesting bit of information was that a lot of folk liked the name Lord Vile but didn't care for what we did with it. I learned a lot from the process and its outcome. My thanks to everyone who took the time to come out and participate. Your feedback was invaluable. On Monday night the comic book panel reconvenes. They will be given today's results and the results of the poll. We will base our decision on this information. If you haven't voted yet, do so soon. You are almost out of time.
