San Diego Comic-Con

(And as I start this post, I can’t help but sing that Carmen Sandiego song to myself – the kinda good one, not the one that totally sucked.)

Anyhow, so ya, San Diego Comic-Con is this week. Man I’d love to go check it out someday. Obviously I can’t go this year, but maybe next?

I’d certainly relish the opportunity to meet many of the geniuses behind most of the webcomics I enjoy. Plus there are always random “celebrities” (usually not in the mainstream, but famous/recognizable for having starred in an awesome sci-fi show or something, and thus heroes of geekdom) who I’d enjoy meeting / getting an autographed picture from. “VICTORY!!!” Haha, subtle reference: props if you got it without clicking through.

And it’d be cool to hang out with tens of thousands of other, like-minded comic fans. Although I imagine most of them are considerably more h-core than me (my knowledge of anything non-webcomic is extremely limited, and don’t even start with the anime…), I think it’d be an excitingly entertaining environment.

Heck, I’d even wear a costume.

Ok, maybe not that one. But definitely this one. Although there’s something to be said for anonymity.

there’s no sleep on the journey away from time
