Title: Wizard World Columbus (Ohio) Comic Con!
Post by: WillEagle on September 12, 2015, 02:56:30 PM
I am going with my wife to this on Sat. Sept. 19! It has been a very long time since I have been to one and I am really looking forward to it! William Shatner will be there along with Brent Spiner as far as Star Trek goes. About 4 from Walking Dead which I don't watch and 3 wrestlers which I don't watch and Mike Tyson. Big whoop! Buster Douglas kicked his rear end and he was from Ohio! I'll walk by him and yell Buster, Buster! The original Karate Kid is there along with Adrian Paul who was the Highlander. I do wish there were more Trek actors there but all well it should still be a blast! Next Saturday can't come soon enough!

Bought my photo op with William Shatner today!!! I waited to make sure he didn't cancel since there have been about 5 so far. Seems like a lot to me. Oh, well the Shat is still there!! I fun part will be to find parking because it is in downtown Columbus. So we will see.
Rico, I will be happy to send in a report to you. So looking forward to this!

I'll see if I can get it too you before you record.
I was wrong on people that cancelled. There have been 8! That really seems like a lot. To be honest though I really was only interested in seeing Brent Spiner and David Ramsey of the cancels.
Going to try and get there when the open so I better hit the sack.

Beam me up Columbus Comic Con!

Too bad about the cancels but that does happen.  I think Brent is currently going to be at the Austin con at the end of October.

That is cool you got to meet Shatner and get your Photo with him. Looks like you had a fun time with some of the cars on display.

When I was at the comic con I was able to go through some comic boxes that were 2 for $1! And along with some help from the wife we found 40 comics!! They also gave us a comic of The Walking Dead which was a Columbus Comic Con exclusive. And what I found very cool is that it says that on the inside where the publishing date and everything is. Very cool. So I was able to fill some holes in my collection but also started some new ones. I found quite a few Star Trek Comics and among my favorites were the 2 part Romulans 'The Hollow Crown' and New Visions #3 'Cry Vengeance' witch is an $8 comic!!! And I also picked up a lot of Battlestar Galactica most based on the Sci-Fi channel show. Also a really cool Variant of Black Widow #1 from 2010 and 3 Six Million Dollar Man. Filled some holes in my Justice Society of America series and picked up 3 Futures End 1 shots with the 3D Covers! It's probably a good thing William Shatner's forum was coming up because I would have went through a whole other section! I think the wife was glad to!  ;D
Well here they are!

That's some cool stuff Will.  That Black Widow cover is very nice.  Great haul!
