If you’re 21 and older, here’s your chance to hobnob with some pros:
Mark Waid, EiC of BOOM! Studios, is inviting all comic con attendees to celebrate the company’s fourth anniversary by hosting the BOOM! Studios Drink Up.
According to the BOOM! blog:
For those not in the know, a “Drink Up” is just like a “Meet Up” but with people drinking. This will be a gathering of friends and fans, so make plans to stop by see what’s happening!
The event needs no tickets or RSVPs, and will take place from 9pm until the wee hours of the morning at the Manchester Hyatt Grand Lobby Bar.

I’m semi-excited as this is the bar at my hotel, but I’m only familiar with Mark Waid. I’m a bad fan.

I was very excited to learn about the drink up, and was crushed to read that it’ll be hosted at the Manchester Hyatt. The owner Doug Manchestermade a personal donation in support of Proposition 8 last year, and while he’s free to give money where he chooses I’m free to boycott his business in protest.

I’m also supporting the Machester Hyatt boycott and will not be attending. I’m going to write Boom Comic and request they move the event.
