Many items from those lines are hard to come across and bring high prices. I asked about BANDAI toys because I figured the show may have ended up being very Power Ranger heavy given the 3 guests and your complaints about all the fans.

whitemo58, no luck on the Wave 20 Green Lantern.
And for all you haters because there weren't any Joes, I saw 25th Ripper, Hooded Cobra Commander, 2nd version of Roadblock, and Tripwire carded for $3 each. Bam! There are your Joes! Toy selection was better yesterday but the costumes were better today. Ticket system is still gaff. Now the Dunk was closed and you had to purchase tickets upstairs, then get in line downstairs. Hopefully they work on the ticket process and also making it clearer for convention goers. |

Hopefully they work on the ticket process and also making it clearer for convention goers. I saw plenty of cheap loose DC figs and Wrestling as well as carded 90's X-Men. Nothing new in MU figs. Almost bought a loose vintage T-Cats Grune for $10 but I passed. I was there for the art. I also agree the costumes I saw were amazing. Black Canary & Katara come to mind. The only thing that really sucked was that people would stop in the middle of the isles to take pictures which clogged everything up. There was also a brigade of people in moderized scooters terrorizing anyone with two workable legs. Lots of Battlestar actors Hatch & Benidict were accross from each other. The black Power Ranger was awesome as well as Hack Saw. Jake Roberts looked like he was goon die. The first thing I did upon entering the convention was find artist ally and more importantly Paul Ryan to have him sign this Fantastic Four 370 page. I also bought these 2 pages from him. Fantastic Four 383 pg 14 & Avengers West Coast #60 pg 11 My girlfriend really liked this pinup of Samus vs Aliens.

Was a poor show if you went looking for Transformers? And just how crazy was the line for the green ranger. You guys make it sound like a madhouse.

And Jake looked pretty good for a crack head. If you've seen "Behind the Mat" he was looking much better today than in that documentary. Supposedly he's taking Yoga and getting fit for one last push in one of the larger promotions. Quote:
I went immediately to Paul Ryan to have him sign my copy of GI Joe Trade vol 9 (He penciled the SFX issue #85). He was super cool, talking to my friend and I for about 10 minutes about Joe, Larry Hama, and life in general. I got a head sketch of Cap to add to my growing "Cap Sketches on a Backing Board" collection. I'll post it later when the kids are in bed and I have time. It's a shame a classic artist and all around good guy like Paul Ryan isn't doing something for DC or Marvel. There was an Emma Frost that had my attention. Little bit of the butterface but she went full cosplay on the outfit. There was a half-hearted one too, but she was wearing white jeans. Lame. |

So right on the scooters. And don't forget the baby strollers. I was behind one or two of those.

Paul and his wife were very excited to get some $ and Paul loved talking about each page and the story behind it. There were plenty of others by who could not stop talking to Paul or me while I was waiting in line. Super nice peps. He def should still be working for Marvel or DC. I know that Emma Frost her name is Crystal. She's a letter carrier in North West Mass. She's super cute at times. You should see her as Lady Jaye. That really did it for me. The girl dressed up as Black Canary was super hot. I was behind her in line for a sec and she bends over at the waist right in front of me. It was so hot I had to point it out to my girlfriend. Please post some pics of what you got.

No photos of the female cosplayers, DS. The wife would not approve. I snapped a couple of others - Sandtrooper, Stormtrooper, Batman, Wolverine, Jawa. Mr. T was there with a big ass missile launcher. A photo of him with Dirk Benedict would have been nice. And the guy who built his own R2-D2 was there. He's a regular at SuperMegaFest. The kids loved the working R2.
Here's Paul Ryan's Captain America head sketch. Very pleased with it. Paul Ryan will be at SuperMegaFest so show him some love. Track down a copy of GI Joe #85 and have him sign it. He said he asked for a shot at GI Joe for his son, Jason, who was into GI Joe at that time. So a couple weeks later they asked him to fill in on Joe. |

Awesome BEAM! I love seeing OG art. Thanks for sharing. Also great news that he's going to SMF. I may go to that too and pick up some more art from Mr Ryan. My girlfriend wants to see Kevin Sorbo. His prices were great. Everything was 50 or 75 in his portfolios. He also had a big loose stack of DC Flash and Superman art. He still has a ton of early 90's FF Avengers pages and I'd def like to pick up some more.
