In today's edition of "The Commuter Cut," we hear highlights from our live Comicpalooza show including Ernie and Celeste’s conversation with Maeve Aviary and Liam Norris, two cosplay professionals and judges for the annual Comicpalooza cosplay contest this Saturday.

Then, we hear from Dr. Stanford Carpenter, the Academic Liaison for Comicpalooza who discusses an event called Comicpalooza University, and Gil Muniz, Program Coordinator for the Department of Fashion Design at Houston Community College who discusses Comic Couture, a showcase of one-of-a-kind fashion designs inspired by comic book and anime characters.

Also, Bobby Ramos, co-founder of Ramos Renditions a long-time exhibitor at Comicpalooza, tells us about their artwork which includes everything from large murals to canvas works.
