I searched ComiCon, so …sue me if I missed it.


Anyone else going/ Any Meets? I’m really hoping to participate in the portfolio event.

Im goin. Love the movie panels and free goodies. Also planning on puchasing some of the Star Wars exclusives there at the con.

I'm going with the whole family. On the way back home, we're hitting LegoLand.

I'll be there .. again.

Got the latest Update in the mail yesterday. Those planning on going and buying their ticket day of, should read the website. They're warning of Saturday selling out again and, possibly, another day will sell out. They also have a new 3-day pass (omits Saturday but includes Preview Night).

The website's recent update also hints at upcoming panels ("Heroes" is planning a big thank you panel) and lists some of the exclusive figures. I'm excited that George Romero is gonna be there.

I'll be there from Preview Night through Sunday. 55 days away!

Did you see that thing? (rhetorical) You save five dollars. Five DOLLARS!!!

$5 can buy you a case of Mt Dew for the X-Men cartoon marathon the night before you and your buddies go to Comicon.

I wonder if Kevin Smith will show up!!!??

Why not.. he showed up last time.

But he was scheduled for the year before ...

i was kind of being sarcastic. In all the 3 or 4 comicons ive been to he was always a show--expected or not

I'll probably be there, working in a booth. I went for the first time last year for work, and I imagine i'll be there again.

I'd love to go, but could nowhere near afford to. I'd be happy enough to be able to actually get some of the convention exclusives for once!

Actually, he didn't.

He missed his panel and everything. They claimed it was due to "traffic", but a bartender at the hotel next to the theater that was previewing Clerks 2 in Mission Valley told me that he was having so much fun at the theater, hanging out with fans and answering questions that he stayed there the whole rest of the time and just didn't show up to the Comic-Con at all.

I would love to go again one more time (did go in 1996 and 1997), but the lodging is prohibitively expensive these days.

Anybody want to pick me up a couple of the exclusive toys?

I now live on the corner of 10 and A, so I think this is within walking distance. I kind of outgrew comics a while ago, but my understanding is that there is lots of other cool stuff as well. I think I'll probably go at least one day.

Yes, there are lots of non-comics related stuff going on. I'm not into comics and I go for the entire time and my schedule is full.

The movie stuff keeps me entertained.

What about the "meeting up for a game of pool or darts", people?

Interesting, considering I shot video of him appearing after the last panel of the day.



Anyways, here's a partial list of film panels:

Also looking forward to this:

A couple years ago, a few of us started an annual ritual. We will pick up our badges around 3ish and walk over to Hooters for appetizers/drinks. Then we'll head back to the Convention Center in time for Preview Night. If anyone wants to join in, let me know.

Now as to meeting up during Con... it's tough to do, due to event scheduling. I'm usually standing in line for an event or attending an event, so my free time is extremely limited. But if someone wants to meet up I'm sure there's a way to work things out. As the time gets closer, and they post the programming grids, we'll see how it pans out.

absolutely. tim and eric awesomecon!

Oh hello there Comic con thread. How are you?

I am going. DVDTalk meet up night?
