It’s been kind of a full weekend for me, between doing some emergency plumbing, finishing the art for the first issue of a project I’m working on for this web site (which I won’t be putting up for a while), finally sorting out how to hook my Wii up to the internet, and cleaning. Consequently, I have actually seen no new TV shows, movies, plays, nor have I read any new books save for comics, none of which seems to be pivotal enough to write about.
I’ll try to put together a review on the first 3 issues of the new “Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 8″ comic series.
The only real news is that I have my tickets, and lodging set up for Wizard World Philly, which is weekend after next. I’m hoping to be able to do more at this convention than I was at the NYC one. And the experts’ opinions seem to indicate that this is the case.
The advice that was given at the “Breaking in to comics” panel mentioned in my first post, was that Philly’s Wizard World is really the best convention to go to. The logic was that it’s close to New York, but it’s not in New York, so while everyone from the Industry is there, other people tend not to be. It’s also comic specific, unlike the larger conventions (New York included).
I’ll definitely post notes on this convention in a couple of weeks.
