Just found out about the Dallas Comic Con on October 19-21.  Stars like Felicia Day, Bruce Campbell, and Sean Astin are slated to be there.  Stan Lee is also slated to be there, but dunno if he might be able to help, considering the history between Marvel and CoH.

Personally, I don't have the fundage or the time to go to this, but I thought I'd throw this in here, in case there are people in the area that might want to spread the word.

There is HalCon Oct 26-28th Halifax Nova Scotia.  Odo from DS9 will be there,  And yes,  Even Gail Simone will be there.  I'll try my best to get to Halcon this year.  http://hal-con.com/guests

It might help to go "the smaller the better." Nobody wants to hold on to an 8x11 sheet of paper all day. If you make something smaller they can put into their pocket - or if you're willing to print out some postcards or even "business" cards that advertise SaveCOH that might help.

Actually a business card would be a great idea.  Head it with "Save City of Heroes."  List the petition, the Titan Network, the CoHSunset email, maybe 1 or 2 more things, and thats it.  Maybe stick one of those AP33 drawings made on the official boards on it too.

What about buttons?  I've been a part of FIRST Robotics for a long time, and if its one thing I learned it's that everyone loves having and trading buttons.

There's nothing coming up for Toronto (where I am!) until next spring, but I wish you all the best of luck...

Even standing around with an Ipad advertising SaveCOH isn't such a bad idea either....

...or at least play the SaveCOH videos

So I don't think anything is effected in light of the news from Status Update 2 from today...

Who's going to NY Comic Con and what materials are you brining?

Currently I have no room, no tickets and no printed material.  But, I still plan to "storm the gates" even if its 10F and snowing.  If anyone is planning on being there please send me a PM so this can be as best of a colaberative effort as we can make it.

Peter David is semi-publisher-neutral, plus he writes for games, as well. The rest, are either under contract to a potentially hostile publisher or are not people I'm familiar with.  Someone more savvy in the industry could probably be of more help.
I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

Does..anyone wanna lend me the plane fare to come to the US? :D

Lend me plane fare, money to get my passport redone and money to build myself a fully functional suit of Crab Spider armor and I'll be there.

Otherwise I'll press my face to the window and stare in your general direction.

I am going to try to make it Fri 10/12 and tell people they have to Save City of Heroes.

...or else.

But, seriously, I'll try to bring some visual with me and at least talk to people about it and why it should be important to them, even if they aren't CoH players, but as MMO players.
