ComicCon!

Since I live in NYC and I'm of course a hopeless, hopeless fangirl, I got a weekend pass to ComicCon. Some highlights:

-- I spent time with [livejournal.com profile] caia_comica
-- Today I met [livejournal.com profile] mizzmarvel and the rest of the Boostle squad.
-- Saw Voltaire perform on Friday night (he was phenomenal!) and got his autographed CD and a hug today. Voltaire is a good hugger. I highly recommend Voltaire-hugs to all interested parties.
-- Saw some entertaining cosplayers, including a Monica-Captain Marvel cosplayer and a couple of Daken cosplayers.
-- Got Naomi Novik's (Temeraire) autograph for my BFF.
-- Got within a foot and a half of James Marsters, but decided not to bug him because he was busy taking photos with fans.
-- Briefly met and spoke with Greg Pak, Fred Van Lente, several other comics professionals, and attended a panel where the speakers were Jerry Robinson (creator of The Joker) and John Romita, Sr.
-- Met Giuseppe Camuncoli, who is GORGEOUS and has a sexy Italian accent.
-- Got a hug from Cobra Commander, who was wearing a 'Free Cobra Hugs' sign.

Homan, I am so super jealous! Also, I really hope you got pictures of those cosplayers. I've never seen a Daken cosplayer.

Whoa, you actually located Greg Pak! *impressed*

Must have been while I was getting tea. I might go try to find him today, see if I can complete my collection of signatures on Chaos War #1.

Camuncoli was really nice, and he did have a nice accent.

How many Daken's did you see? I saw a total of three.

What is this green I see? Oh, that would be me.
