OK, here we go with a few upcoming conventions in Florida.
http://www.tampabaycomiccon.com/  October 20-21. A bit tight for time but might be possible.
http://www.stonehill.org/necro.htm otherwise known as Necrocomicon in St. Petersburg. October 26-28.
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Daytona-Beach-Comic-Book-Convention/109085789161874 November 18. And, just about the last one of the calendar year.

For those of us down South (and for those of you Northerners who just want to get out of the cold) this might be a chance to spread the word a bit more.
As long as somebody keeps making up stories for it, the City isn't gone.

Quick update.

Costume is nearly complete.  We added rubber fishing boots with red spray paint and it is looking very sharp.  Final detail work happening now with the cowl and stars.  I have a greyhound bus leaving thrus afternoon for City and leaving NYC early Sun morning.  My room atm is a hostal in Manhattan.  I will also be bringing three tiki torches with me (without fuel).  My plan is to find a public space/main lobby type area and see if anyone will join me in a City Hall type vigil simular to what is running right now in AP33.  If I'm really really lucky I'll be able to convince the ticket gate to sell me a press or vender pass for Sat and be allowed to continue through the second day.

Wish me luck!


Go get 'em Graph.  We demand pictures. :)

You might want to consider adding Rhode Island Comic Con to this list.

You'll definitely attract attention standing either outside the main doors, or just inside them to the side of ticket pickup. Please be careful walking around that area at night though --- I don't know how familiar you are with NYC, but it's not the safest. I was nervous walking through the streets this mornig even.

You MIGHT want to ask AZ Powergirl at Artist Alley table P16 if she'll be willing to have some Save COH fliers on her table. She's a very nice lady, and I don't know her well enough to be comfortable asking her, but she does a LOT of superhero cosplay, and that's her table at NY Comic Con. (I'm terribly shy, and I only know her because she's modeled some of my clothes as a favor through a mutual friend once.)

I am working there, but will walk around when I am not... I made a Save COH top hat... LOL I will be at one of the Stylin Tee booths, and if anyone has fliers I can ask if they will put them out... if they let me wear my hat I will, if not you might have to ask where Starr is....

Statesman will be at NYCC.

Hi Graphite!  Me and my fiance saw you, you got a picture with me!  (Army jacket, Cap shield shirt).  I am formerly Strongwall and my fiancee is Gaia Stormsoul, we were the folks who got engaged on Virtue a few years back with the dev-run Rularuu event we talked about!  Can't wait to see the pics.

Fight the power!
If you see me posting here, you need to tell me to stop it and get back to writing.

I did talk to statesman... :D Can't wait to see the pic... I took a pic of my hat at the stand but not on my head, so it's not the best pic, but you can see what it said :D

That's a great Statesman costume!!!

Thanks for doing it!

You'd think with the popularity of Avengers, and even the Arrow TV show that just started companies like NCSoft would be trying anything to hold onto a Supers related game.

The Problem with that is that the concept of the Super Hero is mostly popular in the West particularly US and UK.. not as big in the East.. especially Korea..

What you'd really think is that Cryptic would take this as an object lession. For all we know, they have...
