Go back from SDCC yesterday...and boy was it an OVERLOAD... man when people said that it would be... I was like, how big and great could it be?.........I WAS WRONG... it was great... I got to speak to the HASBRO Joe guys as they were JUST DISPLAYING Alpline, and the Quick Kick that you saw.....when I saw Apline being brought out of his little baggie, i spoke aload saying "You are listining to the fans.."....the Hasbro guy replied"You have no idea how much I wanted to let the Fans know not to worrie, he is comming...".... He even said that they are working on stuff for 2010 with this line, but not in the Fasion as we now know it." he could not divulge much more than that...but its good news....
ANYWAS ON TO LARRY HAMMA AND ME..... So I am just looking at the Be A joe contest display, when this guy comes up to me and says, "He you a Joe fan?" 'Yeah I am!' I say firmly "Well Larry Hama is right over there signing Comics." B-line to the 4 person line  , and got to Larry..... "Hello Mr Hama, how are you? 'Fine' and I shaked his hand... Gave him my Comic to sign for my Son...(Free BTW) and as He was signing, I asked how the movie was coming and he stated that it was going very well. Then I told him that the Fans are worried about ripcord, and I say "please tell me its going to be ok?" with a concerned look, he looks at me and smurks, and smiles (in chuckling way) and says.."Dont worry he going be to fine, trust me!" and like a student to a master, I thanked him walking away in awe and felling much better about the Movie....
I hope you guys do too...as I heard it directly from his mouth...and I saw his face, I know he meant it......

If it's good enough for LH then it's good enough for me, if you'll forgive the cliché.

| Sounds like its building upon what we have, but far more ambitious.
