San Diego Comic-Con July 24-27, 2008 This was the first year in decades that we attended the world’s biggest comic (and movie and gaming and collectibles) con without a booth or table. We went as... TOURISTS! And we had a great time! We even snuck out to see the new Batman movie on Saturday afternoon. Left and above: Anina was asked to model for a painting demonstration by legendary Nexus artist Steve Rude. Below left: Paul poses with a cousin of Boilerplate. Below: Lea Hernandez, Heidi MacDonald, and Anina on the main floor. |

This year’s lineup included Heidi MacDonald, Trish Mulvihill, Deni Loubert, Shannon Wheeler, Steve Lieber, Larry Marder, Peter Kuper, Todd Klein, Steve Leialoha, Indigo Kelleigh, Tony Lee, and a host of others, arrayed around a long banquet table. |
