You spent way too much time focusing on Joey.

It's his animal magnetism.

Thanks Flee, always enjoy your video con reports. Looks like Megacon is quite the show.

[Senormac]

Yes.... very fun. Wish I could get out there sometime. You east coasters are a family. I saw Dale, Joey Post, Watson, Rick and I think Roy....?? (was he there? in that scene with Rick? )

 

The weather is killer. It almost hurt seeing that much sunshine

 

And screw the mega death..... go with DEVO (thumbs u

I know that comic conventions have evolved into multimedia events with the

anime/manga costumers and movie panels starting to take center stage, but I

noticed at the show that the video gaming area had a nice crowd around it too. I think

this is one way where there could be some crossover appeal to expose gamers

to comics.

Nice video Flee!

 

We're actually going to have a similar video game setup at the March 3-4, Tampa Bay Comic Con.

To keep comics alive for years to come, we need young people to be exposed to them. I think having video games under the same roof as comic books is a great way to make that happen!

Some highlights:

"eats a pickle", not "smokes a pickle", and you have to read what

is printed Wally, heaven forbid your humor should be misconstrued.

Great report Flee, love to see all the boardies dueling.

Nice job Flee, wish I could have made it there. I noticed a few Chuck sightings...loved the one of him sitting on the floor rifling through boxes, guess he never gets tired of that!

It's a pity Rick Remender isn't attending the London show because, for something a bit different, I was going to ask him to sign my PS3 copies of Bulletstorm and Dead Space.

 

Great convention video. Thanks!

We've always been good, just hoping Jim would chime in, guess he's

not home yet.

Got to pick up the latest book in the Korgi series at the show. It is a

creation of our own Darth Corgi on the boards. It is wonderfully illustrated

in his detailed-ink style. He even added a sketch inside.

My wife is a big fan too.

 

 

 

Check it out. (thumbs u

And finally in the spirit of friendly fellowship experienced over the

weekend, here once again is Tupenny Conan with his heartfelt message of love.

 

 

 

 

That's all folks!

[Theagenes]

Holy Spoon! The first time I hit play it showed a video from Anonymous! Flee, has your YouTube account been hacked?
