    Hmm is it worth it to drive to San Diego with no passes and no place to stay and just hope for the best?

    It's always worth it to drive somewhere with no plan and just hope for the best.

    I bet they'll hit at least 150k people this year, easily.

    Man, SDCC was so much fun last year, hopefully I make it again next year. I'm flying out for the UK on Friday though so this year wasn't really feasible.

    I haven't really even heard what the good panels are going to be, what are you guys planning on getting to?

    For a random chance to find me, check the BBC booth. It's across from the cave trolls at Weta.

    I'm on my way out to a few parties right now but should be around the booth tomorrow morning for a bit and then I go on the move again.

    How many SE are here?

    And yea, I think Bogey is right there are easily 150k here. It feels oversold.

    I will be there for tomorrow.. still deciding if I should bother trying to go to any panels or just walk around the showfloor. It will be my first time going and only day so I'd rather not just be standing around for hours in lines.

    I had a pretty good time for my first Comic-con. It's too bad I never tried to meet up with any of you guys. I did meet Mike and Jerry at the PA booth though. Super cool guys. Jerry drew me a picture of Gabe and I told Mike to write his favorite big word, so he had Gabe saying Macropterous.

    The only disappointing thing about the con was waiting 2 hours in line for Iron man 3 and not getting in and then waiting an hour to get into the Mass Effect event and not getting into that as well. They really need to change how people can get into panels. Other than that I had a fun time.

    Yeaaah you really need to sit in Hall H all day to see anything.

  • Mortal SkyMortal Sky Tails, You're my realest friend.Registered User regular
    The fact that panels don't have a line cutoff is odd

    Oh well not like I'll ever be in San Diego anytime soon

    Yeah, they know the number seats in the room, so they really should tell people beyond that that they have absolutely no chance of getting in

  • JMan711JMan711 Registered User regular
    That and maybe have a separate waiting area for panels later in the day. You want to wait for the True Blood panel? Sure, but do it over here so you don't ruin someones chance to see the Futurama panel when you don't give a shit about it.

    Maybe they don't tell you that you can't make it in so you stay put for a while.

    They like you where you are.

    That's ok man. I think we've only played a few rounds of mass effect multiplayer together before. Next year we can try to meet up. This year was kind of hectic because I suddenly got a job right before the con and was moving all day today so I only got a chance to go on Saturday.

    This November, Dynamite Entertainment and writer Chris Roberson are teaming up to bring comic book readers "Masks," the first Dynamite crossover featuring the publisher's lineup of famous pulp heroes of yesteryear: Green Hornet, Kato, The Shadow, Miss Fury, Black Bat, Zorro, The Spider and others.

    While the entire series will be written by Roberson, the debut issue of "Masks" also features the art of Alex Ross -- and not just on covers. Ross is painting the entire issue, interiors and all, marking his first interiors since DC Comics' "Justice."

    So how was the Con? What did you guys see and line up for? Was there a PA meetup?

    Did @fightinfilipino at least hang out with @DrZiplock?!

    I heard there was a Deathklok show one night on the USS Midway aircraft carrier!

    I met WaM and she was the only forumer that I got to at least see and hang out with a bit.

    I lined up for nothing because I didn't have the time to, which is a bit sad, but I knew that going into this. Still, great show and hyper productive for me from a work standpoint, but also just a shit ton of fun.

    Met (we're doing business with some of them):
    Matt Smith
    Karen Gillan
    Neil Degrasse Tyson
    Clare Grant
    Seth Green
    Brecken Myer
    Chris Hardwick

    Hung out with:
    Patrick Rothfuss
    Storm from Paul and Storm
    Kim Evee, very briefly
    Stephanie Thorpe

    Edit: WaM's hang out list is much better than mine.

    DrZiplock on

    to dr z, futility, ff - <3 <3 <3

    terrific to see you guys, even if futility nearly shook my arm off my shoulder and dr z may have cracked several of my ribs

    to beavs - fart

    also, my hang out list doesn't impress nearly as many people as I think it should

    Hey now...that hug was given with equal force to the one being received at the time.

    ...and it was awesome.
