Common down. We'll be there. This is an annual thing.
Comicon started as a nightmare. Imagine driving down with a rented van, loaded with stuff, packed… and then to go to the loading docks before it closes, and being told that they’re closed. So that meant carrying all of the boxes from the parking lot, up stairs and into the convention center. Sounds easy, but try maybe 10 trips, maybe more. So that said, we got the booth 50% ready, which was a miracle on it’s own… and it was a great start. Many readers came to say hello, most of who we didn’t know. That’s always great.

No preview of the mag, but here’s a preview of an ad. I’m sure the advertiser would never be bummed at this. See me in the pic? It was Geisai. I was a judge there and it was a pretty rad event. I got to see a lot of my personal heroes and see others who I haven’t seen in a while. I don’t want to be a mouth piece for Takashi Murakami, but this dude is on to a lot of cool stuff and another cool thing is that he brought a bunch of “us” (journalists, artists, fans, and more) together.
