I will be attending the Motor City Comic Con (in Novi, MI) again this year. It runs from May 13-15, but I will be there on Saturday May 14th. This should be a lot of fun. If anyone happens to feel like dropping by, I have a couple of spare bedrooms. No joke, I know a few of you are within a reasonable driving range - hint, hint. :)
Media guests this year include: Kate Mulgrew, Brent Spiner, George Takei, Richard Hatch, Dirk Benedict, Tricia Helfer, Sam Huntington, Peter Mayhew, and many more. There are also a ton of comic book writers and artists too.

Yep! But, no Katee. :(
I would love to listen to Kate Mulgrew! But I have to attend a friend's graduation from college that Saturday.
Nice guest list. It would be fun, but I'm saving up for one that will be in Columbus in October. Mid-Ohio Comic Con. The guest list so far isn't as good though.
Come on up for the MCCC too Will. Cheap lodging and the con isn't that pricey! ;)
:*( Darn college...that looks like fun.

Thanks, Rico but I couldn't afford the gas! $4 here in town!! Now if I had one of these, maybe. :tardis
Man I'd love to go. I'm ashamed to admit it but I've actually never been to a huge Con. Sounds like fun, enjoy Ric!
Same here, almost got to one with a WoW guildie here in Toronto but I ended up having to travel that weekend. Really gotta do a big con one of these days.
Looking forward to going to this tomorrow. Maybe I'll bump into Brent Spiner in the men's room again. ;)

Oddly that seems like an appropriate place to run into Mr. Spiner :)

This actually did happen. After his talk at the con a couple years ago I had to use the rest room and Brent was in there doing what no android ever needed to do - lets just say. Pretty funny actually.
I remember that story, that was a classic.
Have a great time!
Well, had a good time at the con today and will have some hopefully fun stuff to talk about tomorrow on the podcast. Took a good deal of pics too. I'll get those up on my Flickr page soon too. Here are a couple sample pics:
i am jealous beyond words!
Here's a video with some clips from previous MCCC's.

That's not even close to how many t-shirts that one place sells. Hundreds of choices to pick from.
