    Anyone planning on going this year?
    I'll be there with Nerd City and our booth will have some interesting Godbeast, Onell and Galaxxor exclusives. We're also hosting an after party at Reggie's on Friday night, if anyone's interested.

    got the three-day last year, will probably grab on this year as well. my almost brother
    is coming up from southern missouri for the show, and plans are for "all out"! i asked
    kirby about c2e2 this year... they're not so sure about it, apparently. at least not a big
    booth like they had last year. (keeping fingers crossed that joe comes back with some
    good news, though... that and i need to get my v-color! =p)

    Haven't decided if we're even doing C2E2 this year. We're short staffed and spent all our money moving last August.

    Eh, I might go Sat. Last year was fun, but nothing I really had or have to see. Hard to believe it's already time for C2E2.

    Yeah that's how I felt but then again I only went 1 day last year. I'll probably buy a bunch of half-off trades and maybe some bargain toys.

    NERD! We'll see you Sat, I like going to that discount book place and picking up a couple of graphic novels.

    Please stop by the Nerd City booth. I'll give you a beer!
    I'm pretty certain that I've sadly not met many fellow Skullbrainers in real life!

    I'm sort of waiting to see if there'll be more weird / indie stuff this year.

    That'd be cool to see. I'd love something weird and homegrown like that. I wish I had more time to flesh out some idea's I've had but with the hospital, school and a 2 year old I'm generally drained. I need to sleep less (then the 6 hours I'm lucky to get now) to get more done. I also don't have much space to do sloppy art projects.

    Whine Whine Excuses Excuses.

    Well I'll be going with a close friend who knows about my toys but just can't understand them. He's cool though, big comic fan, see you dudes and dudettes there.

    Can't wait Ben! Last year I didn't get a chance to throw down some drinks @ the show w/ you guys...this year have some Guinness Draught ready for me @ the booth brutha! ;)

    Nerd City's after show party!!! ;)

    I think Brian wants 2 bring some of his "Zombie Chucks" (hopefully an exclusive colorway) to C2E2. I helped him cast up some SICK neon glow colorways last Sat. till 5am...

    Sweet. I just found out we're in booth #1026. Also confirmed that we've got live art from Revise CMW, Joey Potts, and Veggiesomething, as well as a plush exclusive from SteffBomb.

    We'll have 2 exclusives for the con, both are by Atom A Amaretusra! First up is Miyuki, his latest sculpt with a colorway that is mega-limited and ONLY for C2E2 :D

    We'll also have some sets of the (now sold out) GID Atomutants in a new colorway....

    Going with a couple of friends for all 3 days - missed last year, but heard it was great. Just got an email saying Patton Oswalt was doing a show Friday night; that sounds like fun. Hope to see you guys there.

    i'll be pulling all three days as well. my "brother" is coming up from downstate
    missouri, along with one of his friends from st louis. his friend runs a comics
    website, so he's been pulling all kinds of strings to get us press passes, as well
    as setting up after-hours stuffs with artists and writers. so hopefully i'll be able
    to share some inside views along the way.

    ^ That would be incredible if you could get those press passes! :mrgreen:
    I can only imagine the people you would get to talk to and the things you would get to see and do... Very nice!

    okay... so my people from out of town are rolling in around noon-ish on friday, i think,
    so we should be heading down there shortly afterwards. there's only one press pass,
    which i won't be getting, so nothing happening in the way of cool, behind-the-scenes
    stuffs... oh well. we should try to plan a meet up somewhere for saturday, though, since
    it looks like that's when most of us will be there. maybe take a little side-trip over to c
    town, grab something to eat at happy chef and a bubble tea at joy yee? bryan was just
    bitching about how we don't get together as much... =p
