David Mack Mentioned in Avengers Finale Review
From SilverBulletComicBooks.com's review of Avengers Finale:
	Luckily, the artists chosen to represent the scenes in current continuity gel together very well, with other more stylistically-defined guest artists providing some lovely splash pages that recap key moments of Avengers history, as apparently chosen by the Avengers themselves. It’s testament to the effectiveness of the art that even a non-Avengers-fan like me can feel the impact of some of these series-defining moments, as how can one not love the retro-goofiness of the original line-up (complete with the “robot” Iron Man) or the classy maturity of David Mack’s rendition of loving couple Vision and Wanda in happier times.

San Diego Comic Con 2004 Memories & Photos
From David Mack:
	One of my girlfriend's fave bands [is Death Cab for Cutie]. We met them in San Diego and went to dinner with them. That band member on the website [Otaku-House.com] and his Bruce Lee pal in the photos are super cool. That was a great San Diego con! At my booth, Bendis also introduced me to the OC's Allen Heinberg, who was great and bought the original art to one of my Alias covers. Then Bendis introduced us to the Matrix's Andy Wachowski. Anh's Tranimals were the exclusive at the Tower Records booth and her peeps there are tight with Death Cab. Comic cons are such a great collision of worlds! Any way, go Death Cab! Congrats!
