Comic Con 2010
  Posted by Anthony E. Zuiker on Jul 26, 2010

Unfortunately, the Dare to Pass team was unable to go to Comic-Con this year, like we did last year. My wife and I were able to attend, and I was fortunate to moderate the CBS “Teching Out on TV” panel with Pauley Perrette from NCIS, Barrett Foa from NCIS: LA, and Kristen Vangsness from Criminal Minds.

I thought I’d let my wife, Gory Girl, provide the wrap up of our experience at:

Comic Con 2010

This year there was a ton of things to see and do but so little time. I'm going to give you the best and worst of the convention this year.

I arrived on Thursday to the Hotel Se in San Diego. It was a hotel that was chosen by the network and being that we decided to go late we were happy just to have a room or so we thought...

It turned out that the hotel used the pool as a party place every night till 2am, so we were running on 2 days of no sleep! This is not a hotel I would recommend AT ALL. The management is a bit crap and the service in the restaurant was God-awful.

Friday at the convention I got an early start looking at all the booths and buying up exclusive Comic Con stuff for my friends in Vegas. Luckily some of them had done a bit of research, so I was armed with booth numbers and the items names all ready for me in an email. This made it really easy to navigate through the large crowds.

There were some really fun costumes this year and some....not so good! 'The Walking Dead' booth was by far my favorite with windows that replayed Zombies outside them, you could take pictures of yourself in the setting too. It also looks to be the hit of the year for AMC and it's defiantly going on my Tivo.

The Tron bike was on display, and it was hard to keep the crowd moving past the damn thing - but once I got close I could see why! I am excited to see this childhood favorite revamped for another generations of kids.
There were plenty of cool things to see at the Sideshow Collectables booth and I always take a slow walk trough there along with the Lucas Arts booth. There was plenty of signing at all the booths this year and it seemed to be well organized as usual.

Saturday was the longest day, but the main reason I went. It was for the panels in Hall H, and if you know Comic Con you know that you have to line up for those at least 6 or 7 hours prior... if not the night before, to have any chance of getting in. I had an assistant do it for me, and I barely made it in the hall being one of the last people before they closed the line. I did manage to get a fantastic seat close to the front so I was all settled in for 10 solid hours of movie previews and panels.

Meanwhile, we’re on our way to locking picture on
Dark Prophecy. I really can’t wait to show you guys what we put together. So excited for October 14th. We’re going to have surprises galore leading up to the launch. Stay tuned!
