Yup. So Comic-con this year was really sweet! The change of venue and some serious strategies put into place vis a vis organization really made all the difference. (I.e there was actually room to move inside the building this year).
I picked up some sweet comission pieces from Deerish (deericious.deviantart.com) and Jin Chan;
(They're all commissions of a character of mine named Ace)
as well as a gorgeous old stock print and test run comics from each of them respectively;
(Captain Human the Robot has a kids version and an adult version; personally the bf and i preferred the kid's comic, sah funny).
Manga-wise, I picked up Blue Exorcist 2-6, Tegami Bachi 13 and also Fruits Basket 3 & 6 (gifted by a friend, and thus completing my long running set) from the Madman booth.
Then returned later to grab the Soul Eater and Gurren Lagann collections on DVD. (I have wanted SE on DVD for so long, weee~)
I also have a tradition at Cons of always buying some small amount (sometimes large) of art related supplies (since I always finish the weekend with a massive craving to draw/sketch/paint), so picked up a couple new markers from the folks at ComicArtGear:
Last but certainly not least, this llama:
Who is fondly known as Jazz Llama, but really needs a proper grown-up name.
In and around my wallet flying off into the sky and showering the convention with little I.O.U notes, we did many other things; met many other artists, cool vendors of steampunk wares (got invited to Steampunk camp!), ate pancakes with cosplayers, ooh'd and aah'd at all the cleverly talented artists, and nearly fainted at how freaking adorable all the kiddie cosplays were this year xD har har har...
Anyway, I apologise for the horrible phone camera quality of all the photos, I need a new card reader for my other camera and I always forget that OTL.
