The IRON SIRENS comic book made their presence known at last weekend’s Steel City Con. IFBB Pros Sonia Gonzales and Adela Garcia were in character the entire weekend. They posed with a variety of characters at the event and signed autographs for fans. Top national NPC bodybuilder and Muscle Tech athlete Dr. Victor Prisk stopped by to get a photo with the ladies.

The newest addition to the online radio world comes via the growing community at RXmuscle.com. The site has enlisted the help of Olympians Jenny Lynn and Adela Garcia as the hosts of their new online radio show, Muscle Girls Inc.

From RXmuscle.com:
After weeks of phone calls and meetings, J.M. Management, ALR Industries, and RX Muscle are proud to anounce the re-launch  of Muscle Girls Inc. featuring dynamic co-hosts: Adela Garcia (4x Ms. Fitness Olympia & 2x Ms Fitness International)  Jenny Lynn (2x Ms. Figure Olympia & 3x Ms. Figure International). Adela is currently tied with Susie Curry for the most Ms. Fitness Olympia titles and is looking to break that record later this year (as well as adding a third win to her Fitness International streak in early March).

I’m all for anything that promotes women in a positive manner. I caught up with J.M. Manion regarding the announcement and he shared the following statement.

At this time of the year I kind of take a break from what’s going on in the sport & focus on other things, like catching up on work. So I was a little surprised to hear from Dave Palumbo in late December that he wanted to talk to me about an idea he had for the Muscle Girls Inc. web radio show. I had been a guest on it once & found it to be a good show & had fun with co-hosts Colette Nelson & Krissy Chin. What I didn’t expect to hear was Dave’s pitch to have Adela Garcia & Jenny Lynn as the new co-hosts. Apparently there were some personal issues that happened with Dave & Colette, his former girlfriend, that I didn’t ask about & feel that is his business anyway. Dave said that he was totally revamping the entire Muscle Girls Inc. Again, since it is Dave’s show it is his call. I do want to thank Colette & Krissy for inviting so many of the athletes we manage to be on the show during their time there. We all appreciated them for that.

I thought the idea of pairing the 2 multi-Olympia & multi-International champions was great because of their status in the sport but also because they are friends & have a natural rapport with each other. It was also great for me since they are 2 of the stars of my Iron Sirens Comic Books which will have commercials running during the program & should boost awareness of the ongoing series. The only hold up was since it was the holidays to try to connect with Adela, who was out of the country at the time, & Jenny since we all had busy schedules. Once Adela, Jenny & I all connected they were excited about the project & immediately said yes. I relayed the news to Dave & next thing I know he & John Romano are asking for photos of Adela & Jenny & quotes from everybody. It’s kind of on the fast track now & will be starting next month. So tune in because I’m sure it’s going to be fun! I want to personally thank Dave & John for approaching us to use Adela & Jenny & look forward working with them & Jeff The Producer for a successful show.

When I spoke with Adela she shared her enthusiasm as well. She said, “It’s going to be fun brother. I’m looking forward to it.” One thing is for sure, you can count on Adela to provide a little comedy. Jenny Lynn shared on the RXmuscle forums, “Adela and I have been friends and competed together for 10 years now and are super excited about hosting this show together!! Listen each week and if anyone has any ideas for athletes you want us to interview or subjects you’d like us to cover…..let us know and we’ll try to make it happen.”

IFBB Pro Adela Garcia and Sonia Gonzalez will head to Pennsylvania this weekend for the Steel City Con. This Toy, Comic and Pop culture convention takes place December 4, 5 & 6. The ladies will be in costume representing the IRON SIRENS comic book. For more information visit www.steelcitycon.com.

Adela Garcia, Sonia Adcock, Jenny Lynn and Jennifer Gates made an appearance last weekend in Columbus, Ohio. They were there representing IRON SIRENS at the Mid-Ohio-Con 2008. I was told it was quite the different crowd from bodybuilding/fitness expos and there were a few characters in attendance. Super Hero Adela’s knee was bothering her and had to find the nearest wheelchair. Two weekends in a row for Adela in a wheelchair… perhaps she’ll relax a bit now that the competitive season is over for the most part.

A new comic book series entitled “IRON SIRENS” will be going on sale next month. More details on the series will be posted here on HARDBODY.com.
