So here's day 1 of Comic-Con.  It started out having to wait in the hot sun to even get into the Convention Center(Yesterday, I just waited in line in the Sales Pavilion).  First thing I did was that I went to the Cyanide and Happiness Booth to meet with Austin St John: The original Mighty Morphin Power Ranger(Red, plus Zeo Ranger Gold).  Surprisingly, there was no line for him.  So while I waited, I did have a friendly chat with him, and he apparently is intrigued by the Nintendo Switch.  I gave him a drawing I did of his character Jason Lee Scott as an Alicornified Red Ranger(I'll show you all this image later on)

Next up, I picked up an image from Jay Fosgitt of my characters Wanda and Abigail.  He did a great job of the drawing.

Then came the Star Wars: The Clone Wars panel.  I got it prior to the previous panel ending, and while the cast and crew looked back at the last 10 years of Star Wars the Clone Wars, they announced that there will be new Clone Wars content on Disney.  SURPRISE!

Then I was able to catch the Rise of the TMNT panel.  IT's a new Turtles series on Nickelodeon, with a new voice cast.  Eric Bauza returns as the voice of Master Splinter while Rob Paulsen will join in as a Voice Director(He will also voice a member of the foot clan with fellow VA Maurice LaMarche.  NARF!).  I was able to catch up with Rob and give him my new drawing.

Then I caught up with Greg Cipes, who I had a Skype chat with on Memorial Day.  I gave him some new artwork of my own(Will show off later on), and he actually liked a paining I did of the Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach.

Afterwards, I went down and checked out the Rocket League playoffs.  Note to self: Never eat a ton of popcorn, even if you got it for free.  I got pictures of myself with the Batmobiles, plus pics of the Jurassic Park Jeep Wrangler and the Delorean from Back to the Future.

When I got back, I noticed that the Hasbro Booth was open season.  But here's the interesting part.  They were sold out of the MLP Toy for the day, while the Power of the Primes Optimus Primal toy was still widely available.  I was able to pick one up, plus a Bumblebee gift for a close friend.

Finally, I checked out two panels.  The first one involved writing and tips.  It was more about simplicity, making sure the lines you write match the character, and failure will be in the future.  Nicole Dubuc was there, and I gave her one of the new drawings I did.  I ended the day with the adventures in voice acting panel.  Once again, I didn't get the shot to try out. :(

 

Anyway, that's it for day one.  Tomorrow, I'm taking my dad down to see the My Little Pony panel.
