Yep, that was a legitimate one minute sell-out! Faster than I expected, but I'm happy we weren't like Comic Con and made people sit in front of the computer all day.
I took a peek at the tickets sold and it's 100% hardcore WALKING DEAD fans from the look of it, a couple names I definitely recognize. NorthernCalifornia and a high percentage of folks from Oregon. Almost everyone who got tickets only got themselves a single ticket, so it looks like we’ll all be making lots of new friends!
For those who didn’t get a ticket, there’s still hope, Image Comics will be giving out two passes at a WonderCon raffle. Details here are in this very thread.
Also Ron and I will be posting up our public bar crawl map later tonight or tomorrow morning, so even if you can’t bus it, you can still come along. Can't wait til Friday!
January 4, 2011 2:43 pm Nice pick Ron, all the best photos of Axel are from here at the Isotope. And the take-over of comics by San Franciscans continues...!
Thanks for the great write-up and for attending that fun bash with us, Ron! James Robinson and I had such a blast, and the Bloomingdale's folks were blown away by all the sexy nerds and nerdettes who came out. Last night was a really great event, I will treasure the memories forever.
Wow. Marvel's long-awaited "major press worthy" Cap news hits with all the yawn-inducing impact of a Yanni concert (although that art looks pretty sweet). Talk about a missed opportunity! On the other hand... DC's USAToday announcement this morning is pretty exciting! http://bit.ly/7UIOb
How could you guys forget Red Wing? The greatest bird hero of them all! Also Thanos' pet Skreet, and the Red Ghost's Super-Apes are favorite Marvel U pets of mine too.
Also, any great western hero not only carries a pair of six-shooters but also has his trusty stallion...
The Original Ghost Rider's horse was Banshee, Kid Colt's was Steel, Rawhide Kid's was Nightwind, the Two-Gun Kid's was either Cyclone or Thunder (depending on who was the Kid at the time), and The Black Rider's horse was Satan... and like his master, Satan had a secret identity too, the very un-satanicly named Ichabod.
What? Don't make fun of me! Surely I'm not the only one who read the Marvel westerns around these parts! (yes, I had to look a couple of those up)

Okay, Jimski beat me to Red Wing. He gets my love and respect.
Also, Animalvader1 for his Marvel U horse knowledge!
