San Diego Comic-Con Coverage 2007: Not Doing So Hot

by

comic_con_logo.png

I was hoping that I could give you some sort of update tonight, but I’m sorry to say I got F’d in the A with a capital C by the infamous California traffic. You see, California’s highways were in the mood for a power rape and I was it’s victim. Instead arriving in San Diego at around 2 o’clock as expected, I got in after 6:30, which is a half hour after they stop handing out badges.

The trip so far has also featured me hurting my ear on my roommate’s (and semi-infrequent commentator Shawn), Shawn breaking a bird’s neck with his windshield, and his forgetting his extremely important press credentials that resulted in extreme emergancy actions, so this trip has so far not been the best comic book convention going experience I’ve ever had. Instead of ogling babes dressed like Wonder Woman and attending a “party” hosted by Sony like I hoped I would tonight, I comforted myself with several healthy doses of Miller Geniuine Draft telling myself that tomorrow is another day. I’m praying that I can get in all the action packed coverage I can for you in between buying expensive ass exclusive toys. Wish me luck my friends, I need it.

Edit: I just realized that instead of creating a new post, I wrote over the old one. I blame the beers.

    Wow, huge bummer. Hope you didn’t miss today’s hot toy action. In the GI Joe section, not only did they have a huge vintage collection on display behind a glass case, Sgt. Slaughter was signing autographs and putting fans in headlocks. Yes, the original Sgt. Slaughter. I’ll have pics up in the next couple of days. Hope today went a bit better.

    Things did get better. There was so much toy action that I didn’t get to look at the comic book stuff that much. Oh the irony!
