Mid-Ohio Comic Con

[Michaelangelo]

Hey everyone,

Here's another chance for a meet up this year for anyone on the East coast area.  It's not the biggest get together, though it's a nice convention that I've done a few times in the past.  Not sure if I'm going or not this year yet.  Though I figured I'd list it just incase others may like to turn this into a meet up.

TMNT Guest
Peter David = Writter for the Dreamwave TMNT comics
Paul Jenkins = Edited for the comics, credited for issue #43 Mirage Vol. 1 and did "UnderWhere" with Kevin Eastman.
Dave Aikins = Artist for TMNT Children Book, "Fours a Crowd"
Andrew Pepoy = Inker for Image TMNT Comics.

Put me down as a ?

I LOVE Columbus and would like to intro wendell to the whole comic con thing. But its not definite. Unfortunately, we need to wait until closer to that time. So, don't get your hopes up just yet, Mikey.

Its official! I am going to Mid Ohio Con, unless something drastic comes up. :p

I'll be arriving sometime in the evening on Friday the 25th. I'm staying at:
Best Western Columbus North      
888 E Dublin-Granville Road
Columbus, Ohio, 43229-2416

I rarely stay close to the convention since the rates are normally outrageous, plus its triple points right now for those with a Gold Crown membership.

Here's a tentative schedule for me, in case anyone else is gonna show.

SATURDAY PANELS
10am Show up, get tickets, Dealer Room
11am Panel Room A - Faces of Sci-Fi
LUNCH (Johnny Rockets)
2pm Panel Room A - Hulk's Mash
DEALER ROOM/AUTOGRAPHS
4pm Panel Room A - Spotlight on Peter David
DEALER ROOM/AUTOGRAPHS
6pm Dinner (pizza) – Movies at the Hotel (Sin City, whatever else I may bring)

SUNDAY PANELS
11am Panel Room A - From There To Here
LUNCH (Somewhere :p )
3pm Panel Room A - Friendly Neighborhood Writer-Man
5:30pm – Depart for Home


Oh and Paul Jenkins will also be there. Who is he, some of you may ask... well, here's a little excerpt I found:
Was an editor for years, starting with the TMNT, going through Tundra and bloody Majestic (urgh!) HB was my first real writing gig.   I did a couple of Teknopages after Rick Veitch, recently did two issues of LOTDK, HB/BOM crossover, some Vertigo short stories for Weird War and Winters Edge, other bits and pieces...

So that's TWO TMNT people.

I'll be down there for the convention as well.  

[Michaelangelo]

I'm leaving for this convention tomorrow.    I'll make sure to give my reviews when I get back, maybe even some from there if I get online.

[Phoenix]

heh, of course you'll be online.

Heaven forbid I become engaged to a computer nerd and not have a kickbutt laptop to bring along. And the hotel has high speed net.
