So there’s been lots going on. My mom has come to visit for a couple weeks and that’s cool. We went to see The Lion King musical last saturday for my wife’s birthday, and it was awesome! Friday night we went to see Corteo which was, as BNL says: A, M and Azing (like thelonious monk). THEN to top it all off, I went to WonderCon which was great too. I was mostly hunting for bits and pieces to fill in some runs but I did score one biggie off my list of “Comics To Get Someday” where “Someday” = “No Time Soon Because They’re Too Expensive.” – Daredevil 158, first Frank Miller art on DD. I also got some X-Men in the 100-200 range and I’m getting closer to finishing that whole run (about 60% done) and I’m only a couple issues shy of having Grant Morrison’s whole run on New X-Men too!

The only thing that I found super-surprising was that in the far back corner there were a couple of booths that featured porn stars. Like.. Playboy’s Miss September, 1982. How far do you have to be living in the past to make your living selling 23 year old pictures of yourself.

Other cool costumes: Full Sized Alien (From Alien, Aliens, etc.), Zatanna, 5’6 Boba Fett, Porn Star (although she might not have been in costume…). Ghostbuster, Storm Trooper
Bad Costumes: Incredible Hulk, Captain America, Cyclops, Random Anime.

Well, Peace out Y’all.
