It is possible that four days of Fan Expo is too much
I am SO TIRED.
Loads of fun! Although next year/Hallowe'en I am going to make green armbands and only paint my face green, because it got all over the white shirt and ruined the effect.
I even managed to stay within my budget, except for Sunday when I went a bit over. Better than previous years, when I've spent my lunch money on things and came home starving...
- Comics, obviously. (A few '80s Batman books, one issue of Cass' series, one Dixon Steph appearance, most of the NTT arc just before Judas Contract, a bit of the Adjectiveless Titans run where Rose is Lian's babysitter, and a whole whack of Rucka 'Tec issues.)
- A grey Bride of Frankenstein t-shirt, because I have been banned from buying any more black t-shirts
- Buttons! Four buttons. A chibi Oracle, Cass & Steph's Bat-symbols, and one with chibis of the whole Young Justice team. Even Anita, who often gets left out of "team" fanart, not that fandom has issues with racism or anything D:
- And, the thing I went over-budget on: Martin Landau's autograph on my Ed Wood DVD case! Seriously one of my all-time favourite movies and he is fucking amazing in it. He was really nice and there was hardly any line, so we talked for quite a while. Totally worth going a little over on, especially since he actually gave me a discount 'cos he liked me and it was the afternoon on the last day. Closest thing I will ever get to meeting Bela Lugosi, so!
