Dreams of Eddie Mars
New York Comic Con was pretty awesome. I have heard mixed reviews from a number of people with different agendas, but for me… awesome. I got tons of stuff signed. I got a bunch of new sketches, mostly of Dr. Inferno, so check the Skateboard Heroes site frequently in coming days for a major upload of art by Friends of the Heroes.
Lots of costumes at NYCC this year. They call it cosplay nowadays. I’m not sure why, but everything needs a name, so cosplay it is. The thing is, for every hot, halter wearing Supergirl that really pulled off the look, there were at least three midriff-bearing ladies who, well, shouldn’t be bearing ANYTHING. I mean, if my bare belly looks better than yours, ladies, I think you need a friend to have a little talk to you.
Nevertheless, there are plenty of dudes with camera phones ready to post your chubby middie to Facebook, so… kudos? To me, we’re not talking prints to double as christmas gifts for grampa, but I don’t know. Society is so screwy now, maybe 15 minutes of embarrassment is the new 15 minutes of fame.
