Yup, they have a FAQ page that says to bring a bag and your own food

I had my photo taken today, but after 2 hours it wasn't close to being ready for pickup. Hopefully not the case tomorrow as well as you might be cutting it close. I'll be grabbing mine in the morning then hightailing it over there to line up for signings (they start at 12:30 I believe) after their morning photo-op.

The lineup for The Guild didn't look too long, never did go past the ropes. I'm guessing an hour once you're in it.

I wasn't limited to just one item but I can see BA101 being right for the more busy line ups.

I'd suggest a bottle of water as well, the line ups for food and drink can be rather long.

I only caught the backend of the guild signing booth so I have no idea how it was before they stopped people from lining up.

Where's the schedule for this thing? The link to the programming schedule on the website doesn't seem to work.

Well that sucks. 11:20 photos start and at 4pm they are doing a panel. I just might be cutting it close.

Then again I can bug her about it, and tell her a bunch of nerdy Flames fans are talking about her on the internet.

So conflicted...

So she was Elektra, or are you just saying this?

To Be Quite Honest · 06-19-2011, 05:16 AM

No mention of the man who dressed in a DOOM costume? He was in a booth and it was fantastic! My phone died so I didn't get pics.... <sad face>

Sorry about the size, I'll fix it and get more up tomorrow.

Nope, that isn't her. And I'll say no more.

Don't make me post pictures of all the girls!

(I wouldn't actually do that, at least not here.)

BlackArcher101 · 06-19-2011, 09:01 AM

Advanced ticket holders are sitting in the corral this morning. No lineup.

3 Justin 3 · 06-19-2011, 09:16 AM

I don't have an advanced ticket, but I'll be heading down at 10AM, so I can hopefully get in at 10:30-10:45.

Just remembered how I have to bend over to park there.

Bring on the day of the geek!

BlackArcher101 · 06-19-2011, 09:44 AM

I have a feeling you'll get in immediately.

3 Justin 3 · 06-19-2011, 10:43 AM

The line up wa pretty damn fast. Where is bertuzzied's booth?

Cecil Terwilliger · 06-19-2011, 04:36 PM

I'm sure it is too late but he was 1107-1109. Had good 2/25 deals on tpb's.

I bought almost the entire series of Y the Last Man and vol 1 of Fables and a huge volume of Spawn.

3 Justin 3 · 06-19-2011, 04:50 PM

I most likely checked it out without knowing. Was there for like 5 hours.

Bought 3 prints, an action figure and 9 comics for a $1 or $2 each.

Pretty cool for my first comic con. Definitely be going next year to see Romero.

Took a couple pictures of people, no perv pictures but I got one with hot super woman.

Cecil Terwilliger · 06-19-2011, 05:05 PM

Here's the prints I bought and a free TDK poster from the awesome DC booth. I have a ton of buttons from their booth. Would have loved to commission something from Sale but $200 is way too much for me.

Numbered Mignola print. Calgary exclusive.

RW99 · 06-19-2011, 06:10 PM

Well I managed to get my photo, though the Expo did their best to not print it. So I was a few minutes from getting cut out of getting the autographs. And I caught a glimpse of Summer Glau

BlackArcher101 · 06-19-2011, 06:12 PM

That Summer Glau lineup was insane. At times Frakes was actually waiting for someone to come in contrast, shocking.

3 Justin 3 · 06-19-2011, 07:01 PM

The DC booth was pretty cool, lots of free stuff. I'll post my prints in a little bit, need to get them off my iPhone.

Was a lot of nice looking girls out today. I got caught a couple times looking at some ass, haha (only by my friends though, not by the girls).

The NOS booth had some nice girls in it, damn those blue dresses were nice and tight. One of them even yelled at me "Hey nice jersey!", as I was wearing Team Canada, she totally wanted me.

That would be my best friends ex-girlfriend. (Unless there were other Elektras with nice bums)

Edit: If its the zombie Elektra, then it's definitely her.
