My friend Joey turned me on to a comics podcast around 4-5 years ago called the 11 O'Clock Comics Podcast. The hosts attend the New York Comic Con every year and I was hoping to meet them and have a picture taken. Although I spent the better part of 2 days on the look out, I wasn't successful in finding them. Next year, I'll have to hang with Joey who always gets to see them.
Finally, I wanted to meet Dan Slott who is the current Spider-Man writer. After reaching out to Mr. Slott on Saturday via twitter, he responded that he'd be at a booth at 3pm Sunday. I didn't want to stay that long on the final day but I would just to meet him. Unfortunately, after making the line and only being the 7th person, he decided he couldn't stay because he had popped a filling and was in pain. So while I managed to take a few pics of him while on line, I'll have to wait for next year to greet him and get a signature.
So, pretty disappointing final day for me. I did manage to purchase some Funko Pop figures and pins for some of the kids in the residential building where I work. Also picked up some t-shirts for my kids and nephews.
