Tales from Comic Con
Sorry for the lack of updates this past week. I was running around like the proverbial chicken with it's head cut off trying to get all our stuff ready for Comic Con.
It was my first comic book/video game/movie/sci-fi convetion experience and I guess couldn't have picked a better one to start with. The San Diego Comic Con International is the biggest convention of it's kind in the world, the grand-daddy of them all. And man, it did not disappoint.
The Con itself went really well. We had the four page story teaser for 60 Minute Broadwayand some script pages, story synopsis..etc bound into a pitch book. We got to show it to some people at Image, Top Shelf as well as some other indie companies and everyone really loved the idea and the pages. Now it's just a matter of getting 8-10 more pages in the can and doing formal submissions. I really believe in this project and think it's going to find a home and a publisher. I can't wait to see it sitting on my bookshelf.
All manner of people in costumes. We got to witness the world's fattest Stormtrooper, Superfly Superman (a James Brown looking dude with a Superman outfit that left nothing to the imagination...you could tell what religion this guy was at a glance) and my personal favorite...Gus the Klingon. There was one guy dressed in a complete Spawn outfit walking along holding his small son's hand. I wanted to lean down and say to the child, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry".
And I used to get embarrassed if my Mom picked me up at the mall in front of my friends.
I'll have pics up here in the next few days.
