Did you read my last blog post? Are you sitting on the edge of your seat to find out why I left the Sylvester Stallone panel?? I know I am! Kidding. This post is about some offsite events and some of the SWAG that I collected.
So, I left Hall H to attend a private, invite only, B.P.R.D. meet and greet. The Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense, as I'm sure many of you know, is the government agency that Hellboy works for. I was one of the lucky few that was awarded an official B.P.R.D. badge and received signed copies of the recent Hellboy and B.P.R.D. Comic books! It was awesome to have the opportunity to meet the great writers and artists behind the stories.
After the meetup, I headed over to the Los Angeles Times Hero Complex party at the local Puma Store. It was free food and booze (sponsored by Patron) and you had to be on the list - which is always cool to me. There wasn't much going on and sad to say I left early out of boredom after enjoying the great food and alcohol. I say "sad" because about an hour after I left, one of my idols showed up to the party, Stan Lee (creator of the great many great Marvel Comics characters). A life lesson has been learned - never, EVER, leave a party where you were ON THE LIST and offers free food and booze...NEVER!!!!
SWAG from yesterday included: An Expendables Tshirt and another bandana, got more free comic books, pins from the DC Comics booth, inflatable weapons for some new video games coming out, DC Universe lanyard, the previously mentioned Megamind goodies, and a pair of the real3D glasses from the morning previews!
To quote Back to the Future again (this time from part 2) ... "to be Concluded" with pictures!!
