The wonderfulicious Brea Grant is this week's Geek a Week. Brea's an actress who played Daphne, "The Speedster" on "Heroes", and I was tickled a while back to find out she reads my blog. I had a lot of fun hanging out with her at Comic Con last year (and hope to see her again while I'm there in a couple of weeks), and even did a short interview with her when I was there.

Brea is smart, funny, generous with her time, and a complete and total comic book geek. When Len Peralta, who does the Geek a Week podcast and art, interviewed me for the series, he asked if I knew anyone else I would recommend. That was an easy one! I'm glad it worked out.. and she wasn't the only person I suggested. Stay tuned. Len's got quite a few more very cool folks on his list, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what he does with them. The trading cards are killer funny and it's always nice to hear what's going on inside other people's nerdy heads.
