News Roundup: True Blood Fashion, Joe Manganiello and Comic Con 2009 Fan Photos

In today’s news roundup, True Blood hits the runway at the Australian Fashion Week vampire-themed show. Warner Home Video teamed up with fashion label Saint Augustine Academy and the label’s designer, Alvin Manalo, in creating a new line inspired by True Blood and promoting the second season DVD release.

Fancast talks with Joe Manganiello about Alcide, preparing for the part and hanging out with Anna, Ryan and others on the set of True Blood. Joe mentions that he loves Comic Con. I hope he loves it enough to try to be there this year!

Playboy Magazine goes 3-D with its June issue featuring Playmate of the Year Hope Dworaczyk. What’s so special about that and how does it tie in with True Blood news? Check out the 3-D glasses.
