so. there's not much to say, other than yes.
why would i do such a thing?
perhaps to enrich and deepen my knowledge of the sometimes nerdy and always misunderstood underworld of Star Trek, Star Wars, the X-Men, and every other comic and sci-fi related phantasm of pre-pubescent longing.
also, i was forced.
oh, and also i was promised William Shatner.
and yes, maybe promises were broken, but was it fun?
absolutely, in a mildly traumatizing way.
would i do it again?
yes, but only if i could see more storm troopers on crutches.
so now it's time to let the photos tell the rest of the story. i will say that $70 for an autograph session with Bill was a bit much, but suffice it to say, as that escalator whisked me away to the higher reaches of Comicon's many bizarre visual delights (and the guys from the Boondock Saints) the Shat and i locked eyes across a sea of storm troopers and Queen Amidalas, and, well now i'm pregnant. great.
enjoy everybody!

Your best post to date, Mija. You didn't tell me Emily the Strange would be there. Now I'm upset. Very upset.
