COMIC-CON 2014 PREVIEW NIGHT

My Comic-Con experience is already very different from years past, as Pyles and I have new jobs we have to work into our week, but we made it downtown yesterday with plenty of time to bump into Hillary & Ciro and the FM 94/9 crew, grab our badges and get onto the floor at 6pm.

Man, have I just let pop culture pass me by in the past year. I think the only shows that I watch that are represented this year are Adventure Time and Key & Peele. I gave up on True Blood, never watched Breaking Bad, and though I loved Walking Dead, you miss a few episodes abd the whole thing gets away from you.

So walking the floor is pretty foreign to me. What is everyone running to? Why the lines? And how many thousands of dollars can one family spend on Hasbro and Mattel toys? But it's fun, feverish, and not the place to be if you're prone to anxiety attacks. Today, we're hitting the Wired Lounge, doing a walk through of the Assassin's Creed parkour course, and then I'm off to work at The North Park Theatre for Steam Powered Giraffe.
