Boston Comic Con - November 2nd, 2008 !
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: Comic Cons

 

Boston 

Comic Con 

November 2nd, 2008!

 

Yesterday I blogged about a Comic Con being held in Dublin, Ireland on the dates of November 22nd and 23rd of 2008.

A little closer to 'home' for our USA readers is the upcoming Boston Comic Con, which is being held Sunday, November 2nd, 2008.

This Comic Con is one day only at the Back Bay Events Center.

The Guest List includes:

Peter Laird, who is the co-creator of the TMNT (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

Berni Wrightson, who is the co-creator of DC Comics' Swamp Thing!

I have had the pleasure of seeing Berni Wrightson in person, and hearing him speak about his career in the comics industry.

There is no mention on whether or not there are any panels or programs at this one day con....

However, according to the press release, this one day con should be packed with even more 'tables' this convention versus the last Con.

Of course with dealer tables there should be plenty of toys and and other collectibles!

Plus new and old comic books! 

If you live near the Boston area, and have wanted to attend a comic convention, this one day affair could be the one to get you into the 'comics world' if you aren't already....

For those of you that are new to our blog today, we also have an ongoing 'Comics Show and Pop Culture Convention' ourselves here at "Make It So Marketing Inc.", what with our daily blog posts and new listings of items for sale in our online store!

Thanks for reading this blog post today, and please join us again for more!

Wine & Pop Culture Conversation With JOpinionated!

Wine & Pop Culture Conversation With JOpinionated! 

Thursday October 16th, 2008

From 7 - 10 PM In Los Angeles!

 

Long time readers of our blog will know that Tina and myself are fans of the TV Show "Lost"!

Matter of fact, we have even blogged about our thoughts of the seasons here, and individual episodes at times like this one with the Comic Book as a main prop...

However, to do the show "right" in a blog, the blogger would need to specialize in that show or genre. Which Tina and I don't do...

So, recently I've become 'Facebook Friends' with Jo JOpinionated, (pictured below), who does do the show "right".

  Click Here To See Our TV & Movies Listings!

Her blog on 'Lost' is at:

http://jopinionated.blogspot.com/

Additionally her Pop Culture Blog is at:

http://blog.jopinionated.com/

Jo JOpionated just sent me an 'invite' to her upcoming event in Los Angeles, California for October 16th. The event is actually open for the general public, BUT you need to RVSP her  by 10-09-08 at:

jo@jopinionated.com.

Here is her actual invitation as also seen on her blog: 

"Do you watch and enjoy talking about any of these shows: 30 Rock, Bones, Brothers & Sisters, Desperate Housewives, Dexter, Dirty Sexy Money, Entourage, Friday Night Lights, Fringe, Grey's Anatomy, Heroes, House, Life, Lost, Mad Men, The Office, Private Practice, Project Runway, Pushing Daisies, Rescue Me, Samantha Who, Saturday Night Live, Sons of Anarchy, True Blood, Ugly Betty or Weeds?"

",(Jo),  am hosting a casual evening of pop culture conversation at a wine bar in LA, and would love to meet fellow TV & film fans and blog readers in person!"

So if you are in the SoCal area during this date, you might want to RVSP her right now and mark your calendar to attend!   

For those of you that are new to our blog today, we have an ongoing 'Comics  and Pop Culture Convention' here at "Make It So Marketing Inc.", what with our daily blog posts and new listings of items for sale in our online store!

Thanks for reading this blog post today, and please join us again for more!
