Fun!
I'm going to tell you the highlights of my time at New York Comic Con.
First, the two bits of important stuff that I want to make sure my FL list sees.
1)
These are varient covers coming up in February. Take a look at the third one. That would be Clint and... Natasha wearing a Hawkeye shirt. Yeah. That's exactly the sound that I made in the packed room.
2) I thought I had a picture of the slide but I can't find it now. Marvel has announced it's going to do a MarvelYA line of books. The first is a Black Widow book by Margaret Stohl. Here's an article I found about it. This makes me sort of ridiculously happy for a lot of reasons.
Other highlights include:
-being in the same room as George Clooney and getting to see a lot of scenes from Big Hero 6 and Tomorrowland.
-being in the same room with Stephen Amell and listening to some really insightful questions from his fans on Arrow, both past and present. By far, the best fan questions of any of the panels we went to.
-getting quite a few free books, including the first reprint of the Kate Daniel book by Ilona Andrews and having it signed by both husband and wife, including a written apology for spelling my name wrong.
-meeting Gabriel Rodriguez and telling him how much I thoroughly enjoyed Locke & Key and then finding out that Aster bought the first trade book and had him sign it for me.
-eating really good convention center food! So surprising!
-hanging out in The Mary Sue lounge with some really funny and nice people. As one guy put it when I said that I was going to tell people all about making friendship bracelets at Comic Con, "Are you making friendship bracelets... or friends." That made me smile because he was right. I was making friends. We hung out there several times throughout the weekend.
-seeing so many really cool Kate Bishop and Peggy Carter cosplays! So many!
-watching a ridiculously cute Clark Greg and getting to see the newest AoS and some scenes from Agent Carter.
-being a continent away from New York City. Too big, too crowded and too many people!
