Title: Montreal Comicon December 5th
Post by: latinjoe22 on October 21, 2010, 12:50:34 PM
The title says, except that this one is a one day event, hence a mini comicon. Admission is 5$.

Click here for basic info (they haven't put out all the info yet, as the guest list and program is still the same from the september show so It obviously wasn't updated)

Interesting.

The event itself...or the admission fee?

To everyone: get informed. As you'll notice, there is no program yet. The admission fee for the Montreal Comicon weekend Sept.11th&12 was triple this amount but well worth it because it was loaded with a very interesting program. A lower admission fee usually means less program, so check out the link every now and then to see what's new.

Oh cool, Manapul's gonna be there.  He did issues #9-14 of the G.I. Joe Frontline series.  I wonder if he'll bring his girlfriend along. ;D

And the funny thing was that your head was the only part of your body that was not costumed  ;D

EDIT: Also, my biggest surprise was to find out that Scramble set up at the Comicon. Did you bring any Joes Scramble? I would've come to see you, a trade would've been easier on both our wallets at the end of the day :)

Even when I did costume up my head for the Deadpool outfit, people still recognized me.  My friend the Transformers guy told that my voice was a giveaway. ;D

How was the costume contest by the way? I didn't know if there was one, but I could hear a lot of cheering from time to time coming from accross the hall.

Then I think I saw you. So close, and yet so far.

No Joes, I was set up in artist alley promoting my storybook line, Mrs Fritz's Kids (http://http://www.mrsfritz.com). We gave out a fair share of promotional bookmarks but sales did not cover costs, so I doubt we'll set up at a comic convention again in the near future. Madman did buy one of our books for his nephew though, which was pretty cool.

Hey Scramble,
Meant to reply for the longest time, but have been real busy. It was great to see you again, and to meet Alan. I think what you're doing is awesome, but yeah, the comic-con wasn't the best place to showcase, as it's a completely different crowd there. Not the right audience, but it was worth a shot I suppose.

I gave the book to my nephew, and he sat down and read it out loud to me as soon as I gave it to him. I could see that he was really enjoying the book. He kept cracking up with each student's explanation for Mrs.Fritz's hair.

Also, it was good to meet SEOAP finally as well as see some familiar faces again.
