Squeeeze! Masters of the Universe figures have come a really long
way.

Actually, I prefer the original Leech over this version.

Webstor, however, was looking pretty damned good...

...as was Snake Face!

An action figure preview of the upcoming Texas Chainsaw Massacre prequel.

Did I mention it was crowded?

Only one of the two Matrix twins? What, are they not speaking to each
other now?

Say pal, you don't happen to know where Sarah Connor is do ya?

Hey, even though my movie sucked, I'm still a valid Terminator too!

This guy really likes his buttons.
Unfortunately, he had no idea where he was or how he got there in the
first place.

I'm sure this costume has some actual meaning behind it, but to
most people, it's yet another convention girl in a skimpy costume.

Lloyd Kaufman - indie movie hero and a total ham.

Darth Vera holds a cigarette up to her lipstick-covered mouthpiece.
Classic.

Homer Simpson with a box o' Duff and not a worry in the world.

And that's what you get when you eat Frankenberry instead of Boo Berry.

Bob is
just as angry as he was last year.

Blahblahblah convention cheerleaders blahblahblah...

While Spider-Man did look cool hanging from that rafter...

...this Spidey was a huge hit with the kids.

I'm all about this Zombie Wolverine!

Gotta love the Barbie faerie impaled on one of his spikes.

Virgil was telling exciting tales to the kids about some match with
Andre the Giant!

This blurry
photo of me was the last picture taken that day, and it's kind of
appropriate since the Comic-Con is always a blur. Your senses are
assaulted from every possible angle each day at the convention and when
it's over, you can only look to the photos and your many, many memories to
try and make sense of just what the hell happened there. The Comic-Con is
always fun as hell to attend and I'm glad I got to meet more people this
year. I really hope we'll be able to get our
asses in gear so that we can have an I-Mockery booth at the 2007
convention. Either way, you can bet your comic-loving, movie-watching,
video-game-playing, toy-collecting asses that I'll be there in 2007.
You stay classy San Diego!
