Wizard World Los Angeles 2008

Not a ton of pictures, I forgot to bring my camera.



C-3po!



Jeph Loeb and Joe Mad...too lazy to wait in line but I admire both of their bodies of work (Joe Mad was the one who made me want to draw comics, Jeph Loeb is not always on but he's written some of my favorite stuff like the Long Halloween - see below).

Anyways this is my first Wizard World LA (the other Wizard World I've been in attendance at was 2001 or 2002 in Chicago I believe, that was fun too).

This one was not that big, I think I missed something because it was like 1/5th the size of comic con but it was still lots of fun to see all the people out dressed up and come across some cool stuff.

My only disappointment was there was NO dark knight stuff and NO indy stuff (well on Sunday when I went, maybe there was on Friday or Saturday) but I fixed that problem by buying a Long Halloween Batman (should have got it signed by Loeb but i was taking it out of the box anyway) a random Joker figure then the lego versions of both batman and the joker as well as the lego version of Indiana Jones (pretty amazing too) and a dvd wherein Kevin Smith interviews Stan Lee and Joe Q (and it was free!) and some other random stuff. I'll post pics of my stuff if I have a chance later, maybe not though cause I'm lazy and will be tired after class.

I dont really think its worth 28 bucks to get in but it is a cool con and anything wizard you know big names are gonna show up (I saw Lou Ferrigno and the deputy from the Sandlot!) I'm not sure if I'll go again next year but maybe, its a good warm up to comic con in July.
