Comic Con Recap Part 1

I’m back from SDCC 2010 and I’ve already forgotten the long lines, crowds, tired shoulders and feet and can only remember all the awesome stuff! I’m already looking forward to next year.

We started off Wednesday night with preview night, and even though we got there three hours before the hall opened, we weren’t very close to the front of the line. Next year we will have to leave earlier. Once we got inside, however, there was the usual spectacle of booths, displays and freebies. I even got my picture taken lifting a car! It wasn’t a real car(obviously), but you actually had to lift it, and it was pretty heavy, which might have been why they made us sign a liability waiver :)

Comic con is getting so big these days that it is spilling out into the area around the convention center. Across the street there are huge ads as well as more booths and giveaways. Inside the Marriott hotel, adjacent to the con, there was a booth set up for a new TV network called the hub. Here you could spin a wheel to win a prize as well as pose for some photo opportunities.

On Monday I will post about some of the panels we went to, as well as some of the awesome webcomic artist who were there promoting their work who I was fortunate enough to meet.

With everything going on last week, I forgot to update the vote incentive, but this week
is a nice one. I painted up that sketched of Momo that was up a few weeks ago.
