STARS FROM NBC’S “AMERICAN GLADIATORS” TO
APPEAR AT WIZARD WORLD CHICAGO!

The Gladiators Venom And Phoenix Will Be Answering Questions
And Giving A Behind The Scenes Look At The Hit Show

Congers, NY (June 17, 2008) – If you thought She-Hulk and Wonder Woman were impressive, just wait until you meet the real-life powerhouses Venom and Phoenix from NBC’s “American Gladiators” at Wizard World Chicago.

During their Friday-only appearance, the tough twosome will be signing autographs in the autograph area and will take part in a special tanong and answer panel at 2 p.m. During this panel, Venom and Phoenix will give the inside scoop on everything from how they became Gladiators to what it’s really like to Hang Tough.

Beth Horn shed her skin to become one of the most feared warriors in Gladiator Arena. Now as Venom, she stalks her prey with caution and strikes when it is least expected. Any opponent that faces her had better come prepared because there is no known antidote for Venom, who is lethal in any dose.

Making her debut this season, the beautiful and bewitching Jennifer “Phoenix” Widerstrom is as impossible to defeat as her mythical namesake. And just when a competitor has fooled herself into believing she’s got a chance, this dangerous bird of prey rises with talons fully extended to shred anyone into submission.

“American Gladiators” debuted in January of 2008 and was an instant success. Hosted sa pamamagitan ng legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan and professional boksingero Laila Ali, the ipakita matches amateur athletes against each other and the show's gladiators in contests of strength, agility and endurance. The competitive program, now in its segundo season, is a revival of the immensely popular original series that ran from 1989 to 1996 in syndication.

Wizard World, the largest family-friendly comics and pop culture convention in the central US, returns to Chicago June 26-29 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center. For madami information and to purchase advance tickets, please visit www.wizardworld.com.
