I will absolutely be there. I will have a weekend pass, so I'll be there all three days.

It's nice to have a con within walking distance of my apartment.

I know that on Friday, a bunch of us from thecomicforums.com are gonna get together for dinner. We have a Wondercon tradition of going to Canton chinese food on Friday after the con, a couple blocks away. Join us!


I may have something going on Saturday after the con. Something involving poker.

I think so, but I only know the Star Wars ones and comics related one. There were lots of gaming and anime characters that I am not familiar with at all. The Bumblebee Transformer and Predator are really awesome.

That's way more beautiful than any pic of the girls dressed up.

Except maybe for that dozen or so slave Leias having a pillowfight.

I have been debating if I am going to be able to go to SDCC this year. This pic makes me want to go.

How funny ... that's my friend Annette in the Catwoman outfit. :D We've been friends for 10 years. She lives here in L.A. and told me she was going, but I didn't know what costume she was going to wear. She makes her own and has a bunch of different ones :thumb:

Not surprisingly, there was a huge crowd of guys following Catwoman and Cammy everywhere.

I stopped by on Sunday. I was last at this event 2 years ago. Stock on Valiant comics was LOW! They are so hard to find. Anybody else have any luck?

It kills me that I was out of town the weekend of this convention. What's worse was when the gf suggest that she really wanted to go to fly to the NY Comic Con...but mentions this day after the convention was over.
