One week until Comic Con!
I’m just going to put it out there: This is pretty much going to be a Comic Con Blog for the next couple weeks.
The past couple days I have been reading every little bit of information available on Comic Con. They just posted the programming for panels, the independent film festival, autographs, etc. My itinerary is already looking very full and I have no idea how I’m going to be in 4 places at the same time. Let me know if you can get me the time travel hourglass that Dumbledore gave to Hermione.
I’ve already learned a lot about the comics industry and all things related just by reading through the details. My thanks goes out to the dedicated copywriters who managed to squeak some humor into a few of the descriptions. Now that my eyes are bleeding from computer monitor/information overload, I’ll have to wait until I heal a little before I can go back to see which panels won’t make the first cut.
But I made my first list without taking into consideration that there are films running throughout the day at the same time as the panels! And I know I’m going to waste a good amount of time waiting in lines for the panels that I really want to see. WTF am I going to do, seriously? Will I even have time to visit the convention floor to see all the booths, Artists’ Alley, and to buy some totally awesome crap with money that I really shouldn’t be spending? Will 4 days be enough time for me? Will Ben go completely out of his mind at any point during our vacation that he doesn’t view as a vacation but merely “traveling with my wife to appease her inexplicable, obsessive fangirl needs (and maybe to meet Simon Pegg)?”
All this and more to come. Anybody else as excited as me about anything right now?
