Wizard World Philly and Pirates.

Bulletin:

Okay. I have no idea if I'm doing this whole thing correctly or not,but here it goes.

I wanted to take a minute of your time and say thanks to the folks that stopped by my table and bought an issue of my "ALL AMERICAN COMICS issue #1". Number two will be printed and ready for sale by, the Baltimore-Con.

I liked the lay out of the WizardWorld-con and the folks there seemed real nice.It was especially nice to see families there,spending the weekend together.

On a personal note: Whats with all the pirates? I mean, come on. I like Johnny Depp as much as the next straight guy, but most of the pirate costumes I saw were...well, sad. They usually consisted of a guy in street clothes with a pirate hat on. There was one really good pirate costume. And that guy LOOKED like Johnny Depp. All the women were gettin' a photo with him. And he did so with a smile.

My friend Mike and I were thinking about attacking the pirates sitting at the table across from us just because the one pirate guy was using a metal coffee pot for a beer stein. Thats not Pirate. Thats, 'I don't have a clue what a pirate drinks out of, so give me my Mr.Coffee pot'.

My friends and I have since purchased swords and eye patches and will be bringing them to the shows from this point forward. If any badly dressed pirates are in our vicinity,beware.We will board your displays and loot and burn your tables and teach you what pirating is all about.

Other then that, I really enjoyed my trip to Philly. It was great to meet all of the people and to walk around downtown, I highly recommend going to that city and just taking in the sites, there is a lot to see. So much of our countries history is rooted in that place, and for a city...its pretty clean.

Sorry about the whole pirate rant.

D.
