More stuff that I liked in high school that was uncool which is now cool…

I finally made it to New York Comicon. The first year they had it, they oversold tickets and I couldn’t even get in main event area. Now, a few years later, I seem to have recovered from the experience and had a jolly ole time. Unfortunately, my partner in crime (that’s you Jesse) had to bail for work reasons. Next time, you’ll see me posing with the cosplay(ers?).  NYCC was the warm up event to my dream of attending the main event in San Diego. The day did make me nostalgic for the time when I used to go to these comic book conventions in Connecticut in the 80s. No costumes, “celebrity” autograph signings, or corportate booths. It was just comic book collectors and sellers.

    wicked! The big San Diego comicon has gotten a bit commercial, don’t you think? I feel like they’ve got big comic book movie stars as headliners and that’s not as appealing to me as the goofy costumes. IMHO. But, what do I know. I am not the target audience.

    If you went, you’d have to take WAY more pics than your NYCC flickr set.
