So far have landed probably $100 in free advance copies of books between Tor and Simon & Schuster booths, made it into the Turtle Lair gaming lounge and got a rare black&white print by Kevin Eastman with a signing ticket for him today, played some Street Fighter 6 as Jamie, went to Super 7 Cobra recruitment Center and got some stuff, and me and my wife made it in the standby line to the D&D Tavern Bar for drinks. That one was pretty rad.
At one point in the bar, it starts shaking and a dragon attacks the place and breaths steam into it while you are drinking. You see him fly in from the mountains in a back picture like a Universal ride.
And to the poster way above - Yes, there are plenty of comic books and comic book focused panels that aren't crazy packed. I hit a few of those yesterday too. And plenty of comic sales, especially that last hour of the last day. Previous years IDW, Image, and Dark Horse would go 50-75% off everything since they don't want to pack it up and return it. I walked out of there with a massive stack of heavy ass art books at least one year.
And going to be camping Hall H for WB, Marvel, House of Dragon, etc. tonight. Absolutely don't mind chilling on the back bay in line waiting. I'll bring a few books, my Switch, some food, a chair, and I'm good. It's not this horrible teeth pulling event it's made out to be - unless you are EXTREMELY unpatient. I'm a book reader. I don't get bored if I have one on me.
Honestly, despite what I said this does sound fun.
