We're going to SDCC!

San Diego Comic Con 2015, here we come!

We'll be walking around Saturday and Sunday, trying to meet with as many people as possible. We know a few friends from social media that we're really excited to see. We'll be stopping by various publishers & indie creators and as expected, the exhibit hall will be difficult to get around so hopefully we don't miss anybody. It'll be a crazy weekend but we'll be prepared.

Here's my list of what to bring...a survival kit if you will:
  • Hand Sanitizer - to prevent Con Crud
  • Breath Mints - to prevent the offensive stench from whatever you ate last
  • Cough Drops - so you don't lose your voice by Sunday
  • Extra phone battery - cause your phone will die on you
  • Snacks and water - like turkey jerky, those almond butter snacks & trail mix
  • Business cards - for a little networking
  • Sharpies - for a little book signing
  • Cash - obv.
  • Wear comfy shoes
  • Wear glasses (this is strictly a "me" thing as I don't always wear my glasses and I'm squinting the whole time)
Oh and have fun :)

Phoenix Comic Con Wrap Up

After a four day show, we are pooped!

I'm so tired I can barely string words to make a sentence, so here's a list of what went down at PHXCC'13.

Thursday
  • Woke up at 7am to hit the road
  • Traveled six hours to Phoenix
  • Dropped off stuff at hotel, picked up our badges, and set up
  • Preview day started at 4pm, ended at 9pm 
  • Wil Wheaton came by our table, complimented Jared's art prints.
  • We grabbed grub with the Devastator team and Yehudi Mercado
  • We walked back to our hotel and passed out
Friday
  • Grabbed breakfast in 100 degree heat and headed inside for our Exhibitor table
  • Cosplayers galore, lots of families, Dr. Who fans, and steam punkers
  • Lots of people looking at our stuff
  • Ate dinner with friends at a nearby Greek place, opa!
Saturday
  • Rainbowbeard and Mad Muslim Mulatto were the top sellers.
  • Everything else - wash, rinse and repeat.
Sunday
  • In the home stretch, with two hours to go, the fire alarm goes off
  • We evacuate, then the exhibitors are allowed back in, but the attendees head home early
  • We wrap up and head to dinner with the Yuan Twins and Libya El-Amin from TV Campfire.
Monday
  • Trek back to smoggy Los Angeles.

Calm before the storm

Stinkin' badges!
