Tomorrow is the day I take Hannah to her first Comic Convention. She'll get to meet Starlin and Nester of Legion fame past.
She is soo geeked to go, and I'm glad to have her interested and wanting to go.
Purchases and freebies are to be had (blood drive will fetch free comics for me and her, although I am the only one giving blood.)...will report back later tomorrow night.

enjoy!!!
(BTW - it is sooooooo cool to be sharing comix-love with a daughter. I firmly believe comics have to be less of a boy's club to survive)
The childhood friend Exnihil never had.

She had a blast today.
She picked up some figures (Kitty Pryde, Ms. Marvel and Mary Jane) from the Marvel Universe 3 3/4" series. Plus a few comics. She snaged a Legion of Super Heroes #300 while I was collecting my free comics for donating blood. I had to explain the premise of the issue, but she loves it.
I grabbed a bunch of Unc. X-Men comics for the free comics (148 - 180, with 6 missing issues. Pretty good run nonetheless.
Also snagged the DC Universe Blue Devil figure.

That's so awesome that you took her! I can totally imagine how much fun she must've had. I went to my first con last week, and I'm 28 years old, and walked around with the goofiest grin on my face. And good on you for introducing your daughter to the wonderful world of comics!
I might live on the butt end of the world, but I get to see the days before anyone else.... mwaahahahahahaha

Leaving the 14 level Hyatt that the convention was held at, we had a conversation that contained the following exchange...
"Did you have fun Han?"
"Yeah."
"Was it what you expected?"
"No, not really."
"What did you expect?"
"A little one story building with a couple tables with kids comics, a couple tables with comics for you, and some toys."
"Was this better?"
"Yep. Now I gotta get Kitty Pryde off of her card."

Glad you both had fun.
DCD should totally do a Blue Bull character. Or give Babe the Blue Ox his own book.
