Title: San Diego Comic Con - Day 2: Thursday
Post by: JackFrost on July 24, 2009, 02:15:03 PM
Well, the internet connection here is pretty crappy and it took forever to upload the pics - I had todo it 3 times to get them all to come up. So, that's why this wasn't up sooner. So without further ado...

Here's the car they're raffling off to see if they can get folks to pay attention to Heroes again:

Here's the first beginnings of The Line. On Saturday, this line will wrap around the building:

And now the entrance to Hall A is really getting crowded:

Of course the crowds were even heavier, but I still go a chance to look around a bit.

Here's writer/artist Jeff Smith who one of my favorites for a book he did called Bone:

And one booth is supposed to have several actors from the show Dexter at their table over the weekend - but no Michael C. Hall, naturally. Here's Julie Benz who plays Rita:

And Jennifer Carpenter who plays Dexter's sister Debra. Also apparently she and Michael C. Hall recently got married... ??? :o:

And speaking of Dexter, I'm a little skeptical of how good the show's going to be with this as the current ad campaign:

And how about some costumes?:

These folks were stuck in the 90s I think:

I dig that this kid's parent's went all out for his costume:

And just so you know, I tried to get a picture of this girl's face, but she kept turning away, so I never got a good look at her face:

These two are apparently dressing as they normally do every day:

Oh and Tex ended up back in our room - if the painting looks pretty much the same as before? - that's because he didn't work on it at all after he left our room the day before. Tex gets sidetracked far too easily when left by himslef, so he comes by our room so we'll remind him to work:

More later...

Comic Con is also a convention for films and TV shows.

As for Heroes, I am still watching it  >:(

No, it isn't. And in reality really has no business in a comic book convention. Love the show, but it's not comics related in the slightest.

I didn't see a booth devoted to either of your requests, unfortunately...  :-\

And you want me send all my pics? Or just the ones of the Guild and Dollhouse booths if I got them?

I highly recommend going to San Diego at least once. Especially now that it includes all other media besides comics, there's probably something of interest to nearly everyone. If you do go, we can hang out!  ;D

Also, fix the Xavier pic.  I want to see it.

Is that in this thread?
