When does it get here again?
If by "here" you mean Central time zone (is MI in Central??) I think that's two years time. I believe next year is east coast.
Unless I'm out of a job next year, I'm going to do my damnedest to be there!
This year was my first, and I highly recomend. If for nothing else, just to put faces to names, and hear voices, so when reading the board, you can hear the party all year round. I can now infer what Fay's face would be like when she says some things (usually blushing, but, hey, if it was anything else, it wouldn't be Fay, and we love her just the way she is!).
I was at the first one in Evanston and last year's in Madison, but I definitely want to get out and meet more Buffistas I have yet to meet!! I really miss meeting Fay and everyone else in Seattle, which is one of my favorite cities, but all this talk about people now being broke would have been quadrupled if it were me (I'm broke and I didn't even go to Seattle!).
Windsparrow has suggested we get a special savings account at our credit union for F2F.
Hmm, if Andi and I put aside $20 each from our paychecks, in 10 months we'll have a $800 kitty for the east coast F2f...
I meant here as in time-wise for the East Coast.
Well, the F2F was a month or so later than usual, so it may be closer than you think.
Ah, fuck! Jilli, according to the Dark Horse page:
6:00 – 7:00 The Umbrella Academy: Gerard Way & Gabriel Ba (* ticketed event: See Dark Horse employee for details)
So I don't know how that works. I'll stop by the Dark Horse booth on Wednesday and let you know.
all this talk of broke reminded me, I got paid today, so I can pay some more down on mr. VisaF2F bill.
6:00 – 7:00 The Umbrella Academy: Gerard Way & Gabriel Ba (* ticketed event: See Dark Horse employee for details)
Aaauugh!
So I don't know how that works. I'll stop by the Dark Horse booth on Wednesday and let you know.
Please oh please do, because I need to be at that signing.
Jilli, I talked to a friend who's been to Comic-Con before, and I think how it works is that you pick up a ticket at the Dark Horse booth (#2615, it's really easy to find on the map), and then they have a drawing and post the results on a board somewhere, and if your number was drawn, you get a spot in line. I'll find out on Wednesday what the details are and give you a call. My copy of
The Umbrella Academy
came today and everything! Now I am less hopeful about my chances of getting it signed. Perhaps I will run into Gerard Way in the bathroom. Unfortunately, that is not an option for you.
Unfortunately, that is not an option for you.
I make no comments, and I take no bets.
