I'm off to ConVergence tomorrow!
It looks to be a busy weekend, with seven panels to be on.
3:30 PM Thursday: Diversity in Comics--First panel slot of the convention, but I am bringing a handout prepared with the help of the folks at Girl-Wonder.org. One of two panels I'll be sharing with Dwayne McDuffie, woot!
12:30 PM Friday: Gaming Etiquette. Should be a very polite panel.
2:00 PM Friday: Humor in Superhero Comics. A long historic tradition.
5:00 PM Friday: Old Time Radio. I hope to do my radio announcer voice.
8:30 PM Friday: Manga and Graphic Novels. Compare and contrast.
11:00 AM Saturday: Justice League Past, Present and Future. The other panel starring Mr. McDuffie. This one might be a bit awkward.
3:30 PM Sunday: What's Wrong with the Japanese? A look at some of the more...interesting aspects of Japanese entertainment culture. This is in the A/V room, so will have pictures! And it's the last panel slot at the con, so everyone will be pleasantly exhausted.
In between times, I'll be attending other panels, checking out the art show and huckster rooms, and if I am very lucky meeting old and new friends. I won't be around in the wee hours though, as I have to catch the shuttle bus over to the Crowne Plaza to sleep.
