My first convention surpassed my wildest dreams.::yellowsmile::
My daughter was treated great by the guests and fans alike. George Perez was a gracious and pleasent man to meet and speak with.
Items he discussed...He's busy at work on the new Brave and the Bold series. WW was one of his proudest accomplishments. IC #7 took just 3 days due to a hurried deadline.
Also the 40th anniversary of The Batman show was great. Adam West and fellow castmates were just great. I think ive been bit by the convention bug. |

Almost...LOL !! My daughter was a trooper as long as she could be. We were about 8 feet from him so that was good enough. She did get fustrated later that she didnt stay in line longer when she found out that Adam did some voice work on Fairly Oddparents on Nickelodeon. One of her favorite cartoons !!:lol: |
