Just bought my ticket!! I'm planning on going all three days, commuting from my parental unit's home (unless I can find somewhere closer to crash but it's not heinously far away). I wasn't sure about it but Brubaker will be there and we all know how I love to fan!stalk creators.
Anyone else planning to go? I'd love to meet up with y'all if you do, since I'm probably going it alone. (I need comic loving friends! *sniffle*) I might get one girlfriend to tag along but it depends on her schedule... so post if you're gonna be in town!

I featured this thread, like all con threads get featured.

Thanks, Quis! I do have a friend whose going... and it looks like she may be the only one! But I promise to share any dirt I get. (Not promising that I won't get sidetracked with the stalking, though! )

It's all about the swag. Swag RULZ!
Posted by Caliente on :
It does indeed.
Incidentally, I'm toying with the idea of dressing up as the Golden Age Black Canary. I love Birds of Prey/JLA v4 Dinah much more but I have the pieces (boots, body suit) to work a costume from Back in the Day more easilyt.
I just need fishnets, a blonde wig and jacket to complete the look. Not sure how to work the last one into my budget but the other two? No problem! Only thing is-- it's winter. I don't want to freeze my tail feathers off (so to speak).
Anybody whose dressed up in the past have advice? It is more than welcome...

Jeepers H. Tutu! Where is the Wonder Con? I need to see Cali-Canary!!!
Don't think for a minute I can't put a Golden Age Starman costume together on short notice. I even have--wait for it--the Cosmic Rod Posted by l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN on :
yeah but i'm sure Mrs.Cobalt would object to you wandering around Wonder Con with your "Cosmic Rod" out wouldn't she?? Posted by Caliente on :
Eh, he'd probably let her hold it. All would then be well in the Cobalt household. (Or so I've heard.)
And I will post pictures! If I get it together in time, that is. Either way, I'm sure there will be pictures of my stalking adventures. Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Like when we were at the Geoff Panel in San Diego and Cali went up to the mic and Geoff was like "Hi Beth".
Yeah, Cali has stalked him enough so now they're freinds Posted by Everyday Girl on :
Ohmygod! I like think Gramps has pictures of Miss Caliente like sitting on Geoff's lap or some junk like that...
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Gramps needs to load all of the pics he has from San Diego!
Posted by Everyday Girl on :
Ohmygod! I thought Gramps like already did that...

About dressing up:
It shouldn't be that cold in S.F., at least during the day. But if it is, a long, waterproof overcoat is your friend. Look for one of those packable, crushable ones if they still make 'em.
Posted by Caliente on :
Actually, I was going to go Old Skool with a long coat 'cause I get cold easily. We'll see, though.

Huh. I haven't had any "frEInds" for a long time... And, yes, that was very embarrassingly awkward for me. In an awesome way, of course. Because it's Geoff. And everything to do with Geoff is made of awesome.

IIIIIIIII'm going! Legionworlders reunite!
Posted by superboymddjr on :

Hey can someone find out what's up with Superman:Secret Origins? Or am I the only one who's "Wonder" ing?
Posted by Caliente on :
Sweeeeeeeeeeeet!! Can't wait to see you boys!!
I'm thinking I'll dress up on Saturday... if I can work up the nerve. Otherwise, I'm definitely wearing my Legion shirt one day... and probably my Manhunter one the other.
Wheeeee! So excited!! *dances*
Posted by Caliente on :
Today's the daaaaay! So excited!!!!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Keep us posted!
Especially when you go all badass Black Canary on the Con!
Posted by Caliente on :
Poo poo, my dog got sick, so I missed Day One. Tomorrow I shall be there with AVENGEANCE, though. MEL is excited, I'm sure.
And I couldn't pull the BC look together in time. Plus, I kinda lost my nerve. But still. I shall photog muchly! Especially the stalkage.
Posted by Yellow Kid on :
NOooo!! No Watchmen tickets? I was so hoping you could tell us something about it.
Posted by Arm Fall Off Boy on :
I think Cali has eloped to an alternate universe and just SAID she was going to the con.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Either that or holed up in a mountain cabin with a tied up Geoff Johns.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
So Wondercon attendees, any scoops?
