Mid Ohio Con haul

[Ed Gein]

I went today. Didn't see too much. I attended a panel pertaining to horror in comics and film. The people who were suppsoed to host it were no-shows, so Brian Pulido took the reins and led an impromptu discussion about horror--he seems like a really cool guy. Arther Suydam (Marvel Zombies cover artist) joined in on the discussin too. I saw Lou Ferrigno and shook his hand--that guy still looks amazing.

Anyhow, I didn't get any comics, figures, or statues. But I did get bootleg DVD's of some stuff I've been wanting for years:

Rocko's Modern Life: complete series
The Wonder Years: complete series
Are You Afraid of the Dark?: complete series
Freakazoid: complete series
Evil Dead: the musical

All in all, it was a good day.

Freakazoid. I miss that cartoon.

[MarioBro7]

Freakazoid. I miss that cartoon.

I miss Candlejack, that was th

Ha nice hauling dude, Rocko's Modern Life and the Wonder Years were great shows! :D

[Ed Gein]

I can't wait to watch Rocko again. It's been so long.

And the Wonder Years is just amazing. Once I work my way to that last episode I'll probably cry even though I already know what happens. That's got to be one of the saddest last episodes ever--it's just too real.

[SpawnFan1]

:(

I never saw the last epsiode...

Most tv stations around here were pretty crappy with keeping series on till the end when I was young.

Edit: Damn now I want the Wonder Years on DVD to follow it through to that last episode...

[Ed Gein]

I'll bet it's floating somewhere here in cyber space.

[SpawnFan1]

Yeah I bet it is but I'd rather see the entire series through to that last episode then just the last episode itself.

[Ed Gein]

I'd assume they're all somewhere, but that could take some work I guess.

Sounds like for the most part, I didn't miss much. I was thinking of going, but I was at a local video game store and the guy had the box set for Rock Band for the PS3 for $100. I was gonna go in there and JUST get RB, maybe RB and the guitar, but then when he said he had the whole bundle for $100. I stood there for a sec......and I was like "oh, what the hell". I was even gonna pick up a couple of older video game strategy guides (which woulda added another $20 to the bill) and the owner was like "on the house, man. You're one of my regulars."

Needless to say you can guess what I was doing last night.

Nice haul regardless tho, man!

[Ed Gein]

Yeah, you didn't miss much. There was some uber-fanboy stuff going on and a few people in costumes (nothing great), but I think it was pretty sad. I've never been to another con for comparison, but I just got the feeling that this one was lacking in some ways.

[deogg]

I always check out Origins (the gaming convention) in Columbus every year. THAT is a fun convention! I've been meaning to go up to Novi (Michigan) for Motor City Con, but I never just get up and go to it.

If you want a fun comic con to go to that's a doable distance, try Motor City Con.

Brian Pulido rocks...Sworn to the black!!

[Barry Sanders]

Dude I totally want that Are You Afraid of The Dark Series!!!!!! Can I send you some Blank DVDS so you can make some umm backups :D or let me borrow them. :D
