I've never been to a con where there were "guests" listed who you couldn't actually meet. The entire concept of calling someone a guest who isn't available to meet or get signatures from is insane to me. Does that sould crazy to anyone else? This could likely be my first and last time at NYCC.
Anyone going to NYCC this year? What are your plans and what days will you be there? Panels, Signatures, Sketches, Cosplay?
I'll be cosplaying as Bane and meeting up with a group of DC cosplayers. Might try to get a sketch from Richard Isanove and also get some signatures from Jim Lee, Esad Ribic, Tim Sale, Mike Del Mundo, Scott Snyder, and Greg Capullo. I'm hoping Jason Shawn Alexander has a print of a great Abe Sapien drawing he did available.
I mistakingly thought I'd be able to meet a couple celebrities there but it seems they will only be attending panels (which I don't care about at all). I'm actually highly disappointed in that but oh well. I still expect to have a great time experiencing the big show for the first time.
This is one of my favorite cosplay pictures I just thought I'd share also. Myself as Bane with Bane co-creator Graham Nolan...
@ms-lola: Of course I'm super jealous. Hopefully he will be there again next year. That's cool you got an art book of his too. I'll have to look for it myself.
@ms-lola: I'm planning on attending the Toronto Fan Expo in 2016! Constantly get good guest at that show. One of my absolute favorites doesn't make many appearances but Jae Lee seems to be there each year. If I had known the star of my favorite film was going to be there this year I would have tried to get there to see Mr. Slater.
The first user I can remember that started doing the sig was Billy Batson. Not only does Billy do the "BB" but every post also needs to be bolded to really be special.
