Hey everyone. You don't know me yet, I've been a lurker reading C.C.D. for the past few months. I have to say that it's been fun watching a ragtag group of talented individuals mature into a...erh...ragtag group of talented indivduals? Think 'The Goonies' but more street. Nevertheless my name is Edson and hopefully you'll enjoy this brief ride with me into Geekdom.
"Comic-Con"... just the word sends shivers down my geeky spine. For the last three years I had been seeking out these gatherings of my ilk, attending 'New York Comic-Con' in 2008 and 'Wizard World Big Apple Comic-Con' in 2009. I wasn't planning on attending another convention until later this year, but when my cousin and fellow geek Matt presented the idea of heading into Philly to attend Wizard World we rallied the troops and headed south. If you've never been to a comic convention they can be quite a bit imposing. Just take a few steps in and draw a deep breath, the anxiety will pass soon.
BLADE, DEAD POOL AND umm BLADE!
