77 Days Until San Diego Comic-Con 2016

77 Days until San Diego Comic-Con 2016

With 77 days left things are still coming…new guests, parking, outside events…it’s so much fun.

Free Comic Book Day

First I wanted to mention Free Comi’c Book Day Saturday May, 7.  This is a great time to head to your local comic book shop and pick up a bunch of new and free books.  Not only are there interesting and fun books to read, but it is usually a pretty busy day at the shop so you can meet people who know way more about comics than I do…  Last year my local shop had a Star Wars theme and a bunch of cosplayers showed up in appropriate attire – it was cool.  For more info on Free Comic Book Day, check out their site.  They have lists of the comics you can pick up and a locater for your local shop.

Stan Lee is Coming

I’m so excited about this!  I was a bit worried when I heard that he was not gonna be attending conventions outside to U.S. a few months ago, so I’m not gonna miss the opportunity to see him again.  I’ve made it to a few of his panels over the years and he is always a fun speaker.  His creative genius is the one of the main reasons comics are in pop culture today and he’s always got something fun to talk about.  If you get a chance, don’t miss his panel(s).

Parking

Finally, if you were lucky enough to get parking in the lottery, I believe the group 1 period ends on Friday with group 2 starting up next week.
