Holy crap, I guess I'm posting regularly now, eeeeek.
Anyway, yeah, I'd only been to Comicon once before (year before last), and let my boyfriend lead me around like sheep on the main exhibit hall, whoopdeedoo. I had no idea all of these crazy panels were going on, so this year I took it upon myself to look at the schedule and figure out what I wanted to do. So it was actually the first time either my boyfriend (who's lived in SD most of his life) and myself did Comicon right. I got to meet/shake hands with/get a signing from Amy Brown (www.amybrownart.com), and the other goals were of course Neil, Kevin, and Angelina... but come on, that's like asking for water in the desert. Makes me wish I was a huge fan of lesser known individuals so I could make them feel special and keep from making already big stars feel like caged animals. I felt really badly for some of the celebs I saw today.
...However Quentin Tarantino strolled by me with a big smile on his face, so he seemed the most happy about being a big shot and walking among the crowds freely. Down with the entourage!
