Denver Comic Con 2014
Gary
Denver Comic Con has sadly come to an end, but it was a great convention. The feel of it is different than other conventions, because their emphasis is different. This convention seems to be a lot more about learning, for adults and kids. There was an astronomy panel, a lot of work panels, panels by those in the industry to help others trying to get into it, or better at it, and a play area for kids. The panels were great, and I have seven handwritten pages of notes. This Friday, I'll have them typed up and share them with everyone here. I'll also post considerably more photos (my wife took a bunch that I have to sort through). As most know, cos-play can be quite hot, but it can also be quite geeky, so we'll see what my wife's priorities were when she was photographing. For me, my priorities can be described by this anecdote from Sunday.

So yeah, that explains my priorities, but on Friday, we'll see what her priorities were.

I also got to meet Sylvester McCoy. He was quite nice and had fun with the selfies people took with him. I bought an autograph. He's my favorite of the Doctors, and it was really cool to meet him.

In one of my panels, I got to meet a fellow web comic artist, The Immortal Caleb Child, maker of Mischief in Maytia. He was wearing a "cheap wookie costume" (his words), which appeared to be a rug with a head hole cut out. It was well played.

I also picked up the latest version of Band and Pest Control. I'm posting these, because I expect them to be good, since the previous issues were. As I go through the other comics I got, I'll post info about them if I like them. I also found another webcomic, d2 Monkey. I liked the first handful of comics so much, that I bought his volume one collection the next day. Check it out.

One last update, before I post a few pics that I posted on twitter, for those who don't follow me on facebook or twitter, Steve Lieber. Was kind enough to review some of my work, so expect some changes in it over the next few months. I'll probably also switch over to mostly black and white as I play with his recommendations, and ideas that I picked up in the panels.
