Try do, sometimes. Some artists actually only sketch there.
A few years back Adi Granov had an alley table but was only sketching when he was at the marvel booth. I got in line an hour ahead of time and was first. He did a killer Iron Man for my wall. The only thing is that it took 20-30 minutes and held up the line for others.
But before McNiven hit it big, he did a Thing for me when he was on MK 4 with no issues

And I just received confirmation that C2E2 is a go! I'm involved in a bench trial that is being put off by the opposition and the State of IL today told me I am allowed to block out dates that interfere with my schedule.
I take back everything I ever said about the judicial system

Both shops I was in are sold out. I gave up on Joe a while back but kind o itching to get back in. I grew up on Joe and it was my first ever comic. I have a soft spot but its just been awful besides the Cobra book but tie-ins killed that for me

Upon further research, I have been misinformed. I thought dragon con was about getting dressed up, getting drunk, an having sex with someone doing the same thing that you will never see (or at least recognize out of costume) again

Enjoyed a Bell's Expedition Stout last night while catching up on Justified. Man, I love that beer. The wife hates the smell on me afterwards, however. No smooching until I brush my teeth, use mouth wash, and scrub my goatee.  My wife is the same way when I get beer head on my goatee. Anyway, I'm currently at the Revolution Taproom which Chris has mentioned and enjoying their newest offering as of today, the Infiltrator. It's a dopplebock that has been slow fermenting since Nov. before that I had a Zanate, a mole style stout with chocolate, cinnamon, and a guajillo pepper finish

I remember a few years back, the Penguin players, personally delivered season ticket holders to their doors. Imagine how surprised you would be to see Sid at the front door with your tix.  He's one player I'd close the door on. Toews on the other hand...

I recently got back into Nerdist. I stopped listening a while back when it started to feel like an elitist podcast. But his interviews are actually really entertaining.
I also occasionally listen to Jay Mohr, depending on his guest.
Always on though: The Crabfeast Girl on Guy Wright Turn

I don't care hay anyone says, hockey teams do the most for their fans.
The Sabres had the players meet fans in the lobby before the first game and had half off everything in their store the week of training camp.
The Blackhawks gave all season ticket holders $100 gift cards. And right now I'm waiting to get on the ice at Solider Field for a special open skate.

Okay, now this was perhaps the funniest thing. We get an honest discussion out of something that was never intended for the original purpose of this thread.
I love this place!

Everyone keeps telling me I'd like Invincible. And honestly the only story I ever read of his was the Marvel Team-Up with Spiderman. I have the first and 4th HCs from Comic swaps or cheap finds. I just haven't dug in yet.

Yeah, I'm a man, I drink that stuff and I still think that was an awful marketing plan. Why alienate half of your potential customers for a beverage that clearly doesn't need to be gender specific. It's not as if they're pumping each bottle full of testosterone... or are they?  If that was the case, they would have called it Dr Pepper 10-T

So I was driving home from work and listening to the Sabres game and hear Boston score 3 goals so I shut the damn thing off. I wake up to them winning 7-4 and Vanek with the hat trick. What the hell?
And tonight is Chicago in Vancouver. Should be interesting.
