Artist's Alley, Deviant Art, rockerboy

It was fun to see some of my siblings at Comic-Con.  I couldn’t take any pictures because they were in the Art Show and that just is not allowed.  They seemed to be having fun looking out at all commotion in the main room.  Some of our other siblings are posing at our creator’s Deviant Art page.

One of the most wonderful things I found out about Comic-Con is that Deviant Art sponsors the area called Artist’s Alley.  This area has tables and tables shared by some wonderful, talented artists, writers and more.  Such a great thing for this company to do!  I thank them very much because some of the nicest people are there!

Large.  Small.
Traveling.  Dancing.
Wayward glee.  Determinedly.

 

 

Wow. Tired.

Anton Strout, David Petersen, Hello Kitty, Outlander

Well the wet stuff stopped coming down by the time I got on site – Yay!  So while there were clouds the sun was peeking when I found these gals and their fun kitty hat for me.

Not too long after I found this other kitty picture.   No doom for me, but no guarantees for anyone else.

Then I went to see people and presentations – like …

rain, time

There is this damp stuff coming from the sky on day two of Comic-Con!  Hope the people I saw camped out last night stay dry.  I don’t know what today has in store, but I do plan to write a little bit more about each of the fun people I met yesterday at some point soon  AND I still have to get back to my travel to Ireland.   This time thing is causing me problems here.

Comic-Con!

IMG_1641-smallThe fun has started!!  And I am ready.

Authors, artists, directors – oh the fun I had today!

First to sit in on the session Science Fiction & Fantasy Literature with David Brin, Jim Butcher, Rachel Caine, Jason Hough, Marie Lu, Jonathan Maberry and Henry Herz was way fun.  More fun was visiting with them all at their autograph session!  Some were cuddly, some were kinda scary, but all in good fun!

Jonathan Maberry apparently was a bit hungry.  Made Jim Butcher wonder whether he should be sitting next to him.  But then Jim had these very scary sharp fingers to protect himself so I think he would be fine in the long run.

IMG_1679smallDavid Brin seemed a little gruff but perhaps this was because he wasn’t quite sure what opinion to have of me yet.

Jason Hough, Rachel Caine, Marie Lu and Henry Herz were all sporting beautiful smiles.  Rachel had this wonderful cover that looks like an old book, but inside?….a computer of course!  And Henry was probably most happy with my choice of a book for him (and Jim Butcher) to sign.

Later I found Peter Beagle for a wonderful hug to round off the afternoon.
