SDCC: Random SDCC stuff, day 2

Star Wars LEGOS mural

As Kevin just reported, Sunday at San Diego Comic-Con is now sold out. So basically if you don’t have any kind of pass, you can’t get any kind of pass and can’t get in. After yesterday, I guess I’m used to the crowds, because I didn’t mind fighting my way to the Heroes booth to get a comic.

I’ve got plenty of more pictures to transfer over, like Warren Ellis and the Monster Attack Network crew and lots of random stuff. The picture up above is from the LEGOS booth.

What I didn’t get a picture of was the construction workers at the Hard Rock Hotel (opening in the fall, I think?) hooting and yelling at all the booth babes that went over to Subway for lunch. They were impressed with a woman in a Wonder Woman costume. I now know where WW keeps her cell phone, BTW, and so do the awestruck construction workers. Also didn’t get a picture of Joe Quesada running down the street at 11:35 a.m., passing us on his way to his 11:45 Cup O’Joe panel (which Matt has on the home page).

Right now I’m sitting in the Spectacular Spider-Man panel, where Greg Weisman is answering Gargoyles questions. I want to give the lady who asked if he’d still have time to write the Gargoyles comic even though he’s doing the Spider-Man cartoon a cookie. Go comics! The cartoon looks nice, BTW; looks nothing like the MTV Spider-Man cartoon, which is a plus. The new cartoon isn’t about being young and hip, one of the panelists just said. “He’s everyone’s hero.” The new cartoon won’t be dark like that one. Expect something fun when it comes to WB.

Up next is Neil Gaiman, which is what I’m waiting for. And I need a power outlet.

More later …
