For Saturday, I spent most of my time get some comics signed by creators in the Marvel booth and the artist alley. Some include Steve McNiven, Scott Hanna, Steve Uy, Andy Lanning, Greg Horn and others.
I didn't have a chance to go to many panels, I did go to Marvel's Cup o'Joe, I was only limited to only 1 question b/c of the line, but I plugged his column on myspace that announced a fan favorite characters is coming back. I also bought some cool stuff like some artist prints, a Skrull latex mask, and some action figures. All in all a good.
Sunday was by far by the best day for me at the Con. I was considering skipping it since I had pretty much done everything i had set out to do, and it was "kids' day" but i went anyway. There was a Marvel Prize or No Prize trivia contest which I attended and was hosted by editor Tom Brevoort and my comics idol Dan Slott. The final round came for this huge stack of prizes, the question-who is Steve Harmon, which I know having read Dan Slott's books, but the guy on stage didn't, so i immediately got up and they had to pick me since I was the first one up, and Dan knew i knew the answer, so i yelled out "Slapstick" raced to the stage, hugged Dan, got my prizes which included- Hulk hands, original sketches, an Iron Man statue, an Iron Man action figure, and others. All in all a most excellent con experience :D
