Man oh man,
the past week has been quite a blur. Then again, with everything that
takes place at the San Diego Comic-Con each year, it's hard for it to be
anything but a blur. This year I was able to make it to the 2007
convention for three days, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. At this point, I
think my camera truly hates me for forcing it to take countless
snapshots of toys, games and geeks galore. I may be back from vacation,
but now it's my camera's turn. As always, I hope that these pics prove
to be the next best thing to actually attending the convention. Last
year I shared
over 170 photos from the Comic-Con with you, this year I've
almost doubled that amount for your viewing pleasure. But before we move
on to the pics... it's time for
the usual disclaimer:
The
Comic-Con is absolutely massive and no words or photos can truly do it justice...
you simply have to go and experience it all for yourself. The following
pages are my best attempt at capturing many of the sights that there
were to see at the convention for those of you who were unable to
attend. I hope they're as fun for you guys to look at as they were for
me to see in person! Keep in mind, these pics are in no particular
order... I'm just unloading 'em all on you along with a few comments
about each one. With that being said, on with the photos!
If there's one good way to start off the Comic-Con, it's gotta be finding
a guy sitting on the floor, biting the head off of a Spider-Man ice pop.
By the year 2010, the free bags handed out at the Comic-Con
will be large enough for you to carry around Orca with you.
Don't let the chain mail fool you...
underneath that cloak, he's completely naked from the waist down.
Batman always did like fighting crime...
I just never knew that involved fashion crimes.
FEED ME YOUR YOUNG!
The convention hall was crowded as ever, and it wasn't even Saturday
yet.
Two turtle doves and a partridge in a nipple tree.
This robot demands your respect and devotion.
Da' bomb.
The horse head warrior will gut you like a pig.
He's already got a bomb, is the wooden board all that necessary?
What's worse? Paying to get into a convention where random people sing
karaoke to tunes like James Blunt's "You're Beautiful" on Singstar Pop
or going to a funeral?
If Pinhead and an Isz had an offspring, this would be it.
This is how we all look after 3-4 days of overexposure to the San Diego
Comic-Con
Steam Crow Press had a great booth with gears a turnin' and lights a
glowin'.
Aren't all raves naked and fat?
Actually, I'm sure they'd call it naked and "phat", but same difference,
right?
The Silver Surfer was surfing high above some toy racks.
If you won't buy my toys... you will die, young Jedi.
He's not everybody's favorite Tron Guy, but it's still a fine outfit
complete with disc.
Yes indeed, the furries were roaming the convention, wagging their tails
with glee.
