WONDERCON 2008
So another Wondercon has come and gone and I have one resounding opinion: Wondercon needs to be extended to four days.
For the two of you who have no idea what I am talking about, Wondercon is a convention held in San Francisco annually celebrating the comic-book industry and the popular culture it spawned. During the course of the weekend, my wife described it as a family affair. For us, it truly is. It's one of the greatest joys in my life to share my passions with my children and it was so great to watch them enjoy themselves walking through the oft crowded exhibition halls of Moscone Center.
So it came and there it went. I know I didn't get my fill so I definitely needed more time to absorb everything. Especially when attending panels. As tiring as walking the halls can be, it's so much fun, especially the kids clamoring to take as much pictures with every Superhero and oddities in costume that they bump into. Trinity was especially ecstatic, having taken pictures with Batman, Harley Quinn, Superman, and a couple of Storm Troopers. All in her Supergirl costume. Priceless.

Goal for next year? My own table, selling my own, over-priced swag. I will BE Wondercon.
Better said than done. More later!
