Dallas Sci-Fi Expo -- February 8-9, 2014

[mysterio]

So they're going to jump back and forth between Irving and Dallas now? May in Dallas and the smaller shows in Irving? That'd be a little awkward.

So any announcements yet?

[mysterio]

They're supposed to start this week, according to their Facebook feed.

Yeah Wave 1 is supposed to be announced this week...to be honest I don't expect big names in the artist section of the show. Probably the same ones they always bring...I'm just looking forward to the celeb side since there is a Tardis in the banner, I hope they bring Doctor Who actors.

That's the bad thing about these shows. They are well attended, but if you've been to multiple shows the artists are the same. I'll be selling at this show, which I'm really looking forward to, but now I have a vested interest in the guests and how that may effect my sales opportunities. Fillion would be great, some good star wars guests would be good too. I do anticipate dr who guests as soooo many people have been begging for them. It would make for good attendance, but from what I've seen, whovians are not always interested in comics......

I want Bowler and leonidas to go again, I missed them and Need sigs from them

First post of thread updated with link to guest list . Not impressed so far.

Rehash of past guests. Get some new guests!

According to the Facebook page a headliner will be announced tonight. Allegedly a rare appearance, and a first for the state of Texas.

Is he/she going to cancel at the last minute too?

[mysterio]

Richard Dreyfuss is the big name announced tonight. Not a bad name, but I'm not sure it will generate the excitement they hoped it would. I can hear the spurned Whovians now!

[Monster's Lair Comics]

A good "sci fi" name though, still hoping for a Star Wars guest other than Mayhew (who lives in Texas and goes to every every texas show).

Stephen Amell added as a Headliner.

Who is that? I'm going to have to look up his bio...

 

EDIT: I've never watched Arrow, but its a good get for fans of the show. Bravo. It ought to be good for sales of Green Arrow books too.

[JorgeRR96]

Karl Urban added!!! :D

[JorgeRR96]

artist Ian Churchill added to the lineup.

That's kinda cool, actually have a few things for him to sign anyways from his earlier days on Cable and Deadpool respective series. Do look forward to adding an Urban sig. to a Jidge Dredd and a Amell to a Green Arrow.

That's what I want to do too...got a Star Trek photo cover variant that I want to get signed by Urban and an Arrow comic for Amell...but damn I feel bad for the DWC people that have to go from the first floor to the fourth floor just to witness the signatures . Thank God DCC is going to be just one big floor.

Chris Sprouse added.

Peter Weller added! Rare appearance and nice opportunity to get double sigs on a Star Trek Countdown to Darkness comic!
