COMICS FOR GIRLS
This panel will answer all the questions you've ever had about finding the perfect comics for girls. Join Barbara Slate (Angel Love, Archie, Barbie), Mike Pellerito (Archie), Allison Barrows (Pre-Teena, Goofyfoot Gurl), Jimmy Gownley (Amelia Rules), Buzz Dixon & Marlon Schulman from RealBuzz Studios (Serenity, Goofyfoot Gurl), Raina Telgemeier (The Babysitters Club) and moderated by Christine Norrie.

I hope someone's able to make it to the convention! Hopefully, there'll be some pictures or first-hand accounts afterwards. It really sounds like such a great panel will be there though, which ought to be a lot of fun for anyone who's able to attend.

I'm taking a train to NYC tomorrow for the weekend so I can go to comic con, the bf and I planned a whole getaway just so we can attend, I am so excited to be going! I'll try to remember to take lots of pictures and post them here when I'm back. I should probably get to packing, I don't know how to decide which issues I want to bring with me to get signed, anyone have some input on making important decisions like that?

Sounds fun, wish I could go...

anyone have a couple thousand dollars I could borrow? I figure $500 for airfare, $100 for food, $200 for lodging and the rest for the DEALERS ROOM!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHA.

Ah well, maybe next year....

The Calgary Entertainment Expo is this weekend - which is a looooong way away from New York!  However, I hope to find at least a few Archie books to purchase.
