  1. Whatever you want? He signed my Clerks laserdisc for me a couple years ago (not at a fan expo event, but he was happy to sign). I'm anticipating getting a non-comic item signed here myself.
  2. Will there be a panel featuring ALL of the former/current Mando actors?
  3. Perhaps I'm looking in all of the wrong places, but where exactly does one procure a completely blank cover for an artist to create a commissioned sketch cover? And related question: If I commission an artist remotely, and agree to meet them at a convention to pick up the sketch cover, if a CGC witness is present, is that sufficient to have it submitted for the yellow label?
  4. Any chance of Wayne Knight attending this one, who was unable to attend last year?
  5. Ming-Na Wen, John Barrowman, Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes, David Hayer, Stephen Amell and Alexander Ludwig cancel very conveniently 2 days before the con.
  6. Thanks. Looks like given his set signing window of time, I'll have to hope Fan Expo gets him at a few other cons this year.
  7. @Kevin Boyd any details on Kevin's autograph price? Not on the site...
  8. So I did, but it fell upon deaf ears (as I expected it would). I'm understanding in general when guests cancel, this isn't my first con and I've been attending this one in particular for years. But when this many people cancel and there are no longer any real headliners (and despite what anyone says, my belief is that given everything going on right now, most cancellations were because it's in Texas), the "too bad so sad" refund policy needs to change. The celebrities are what you use to promote the con. When numerous celebrities cancel and you've already sold tickets for people hoping to see those celebrities, it feels really bait-and-switch-y. The lesson I've learned this year is to never, under any circumstances, buy con tickets in advance. And I won't be ever again.
  9. I saw it, I thought that was nice of him. But he also canceled "due to a professional obligation" on 7/13 for a 7/17 - 7/18 con. If the scheduling/work is that tight for him...
  10. Just wanted to note he also canceled his appearance at Comicpalooza in July.
  11. I can understand not canceling the event as a whole at this point, but given the number of cancellations (and the week isn't over yet), giving people the option to get a refund or credit their ticket to next year would be the right thing to do.
  12. I believe Dork Buzz will be there, who can CGC witness/facilitate. https://www.facebook.com/DorkBuzz
  13. Grrrreattt. I guess this frees up my Saturday now. When I'm lighting this much money on fire, I prefer it to be at WinStar.
  14. Is that posted somewhere? Not seeing that on the Facebook account or website. I guess that means now I'm 2 for 2 in eating con tickets costs because my guests canceled.
  15. Does that mean masks for fully vaccinated attendees? How will this impact photo ops?
  16. I've seen many conventions where guests have canceled days before the convention. I was just supposed to attend a con in Colorado last weekend, but the guest I would have been attending for canceled 2 days before. Luckily, I was able to get the flight/hotel refunded, but had to eat the con ticket cost.
  17. I just wanted to comment on how the website advises ticket pricing BEFORE getting to actual the purchase ticket screen: "Single Day Advance ticket price From $25 Full price From $30" While technically accurate, "from" is misleading because that's the Friday pricing. A bit different when you click-through and see Saturday is $50 and Sunday is $40. Please do better than misleading people like this next year, because it looks like a single day is $25 or $30, not just Friday. I'd love to know the bounce rate of that page.
  18. Ok, that plexiglass is laughably silly. This wasn't the case at Comicpalooza in Houston in July. Kevin, I didn't see Wayne Knight's autograph price on the website?
  19. Wayne Knight just appeared in the Fort Worth-based "12 Mighty Orphans" as a great villain. Glad to see he'll be in town!
  20. I met MPG as well, really surprised at how down-to-earth he was.
  21. Yes, I was there today. It's busier than expected. You can find helpful CGC witnessing services at the DORK BUZZ booth. Very friendly and good guys. Got my items taken care of fairly quickly. Because one guest showed up late for their photo op in the afternoon, it pushed all the photo ops back by half an hour. And to make matters worse, there is only *1* photo op booth, not multiple operating at the same time.
  22. Comicpalooza said on FB that "someone will be there."
  23. https://www.cscomiccon.com/ Will CGC have a presence or witnesses at Colorado Springs Comic-Con?
  24. https://www.comicpalooza.com/ Anyone attending? Will CGC have a table/witnesses?
