WHO IS THE NEW MASKED MAGICIAN?

Not John B. Pyka according to a press release recently distributed. Following a discussion related to the various possible identities of the Masked Magician at Magic Cafe, one of the places where the allegations were posted, John posted a press release from which the following is excerpted: "The rumors started circulating quietly at first" says John, "Tim Deremer in Canton OH was the first to voice speculation when the TV series first aired on MyNetwork, and it has gained steam since then." While John admits he is a controversial figure in the world of magic, he states that the rumors are false. "I am not the Masked Magician" says John emphatically. "I am a lot of things, but I am definitely NOT the Masked Magician."
