So I took quite a few pictures this past weekend. If you're in one of these and want a higher-res version, email or message me or something. I reduced them because it was taking forever to upload.
If you're not down with the slideshow thing. Album link can be found HERE. I think the "View All" button does that too, but I don't know how to internet...
Things I learned at Comic-Con International 2013...
Jennifer Carpenter steals things. Specifically, she took "a lot of stuff" from the Dexter set after they wrapped shooting for the final episode. It was insinuated that she even yoinked the blood spatter paintings Michael C. Hall intended to take as souvenirs. In case you missed it the first time, she reiterated that she took "a lot of stuff". Also, she wants Deb to die because she does't want her in her head anymore.
"No I'm serious. I think I might be going to jail..."
Kevin Smith is one of the world's greatest motivational speakers. Nearly every person who came up to the mic on his Saturday night panel talked about how Lunchbox changed their lives in some profound way. Not bad for a man whose most famous on screen character is known for being silent. Snooch to the nooch.
Jim Lee is Stan Lee's son. The Marvel Comics Legend legally adopted the talented artist after his entire village was mercilessly fire-bombed during the Asian Pacific War of 1973, leaving young Jim as the only survivor. Thankfully the successful UN program known as "We are One World" connected the two of them and the rest is history.
The previous thing I said regarding the two Lee's is completely untrue. Every. Single. Word.
Something true. Jim Lee is a smart ass and his panels are highly entertaining, especially when you consider it's just some Korean dude drawing on an overhead projector. In high school we called that Physics class.
Oh crap, he's lost it...
...Never mind.
Neil Gaiman looks like Snape. I already knew this, but every time I see him in person, my brain treats it as new information.
American Superheroes are creepy as fuckall when done by a Japanese animation house. Although I definitely liked the flick, "Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox" took some getting used to in terms of visuals. Also, it apparently takes the Dread Pirate Roberts (Cary Elwes) voicing the character to make Aquaman bad-ass.
By Saturday night, the tents outside of Hall H smell like the camp of a mongolian raiding party, complete with horses, after riding day and night, unbathed for a week.
Any attempts by security to actively control a crowd of nerds is less effective than stepping back and letting said crowd of nerds regulate itself.
Steampunk is still gaining popularity. It's only a matter of time before suburban rich kids co-opt the movement into the more mainstream friendly, watered down, Steam Pop-Punk. I hope not. Here's some "Chap Hop". It's fucking weird. That makes it pretty cool.
Finally, I took like a billion pictures. Combined with the billions I've taken at comic-cons in the past, that makes for like, several hundred pictures. Look for full on photographic goodness next time as I continue the SDCCI 2013 post-game..
