San Diego Comic Book 2009 Day 0

This has been one of the most difficult yet very rewarding Comic Con for me. I'm always grateful that I live pretty close to Comic Con because lot of people from over the world are traveling long way to San Diego to check out the stuff at Comic Con, which is very plentiful. For example, there's always Australian woman who attends lot of same panels that I do.

I spent exactly 285 dollars this year at Comic Con, including parking fees and gas. I spent good deal of my money on independent comic books because I want to support those small independent publishers and also, I would like to see them to continue to produce very unique comic books. For example, I bought the one that had Jesus Christ used bad languages and used the guns to kill Hitler and Nazis people. Very entertaining.

So here's the pictures!

Arrive at Convention Center before 8 am because I had suspected the line would be long.

Photobucket

Ah shit, I'm right. The line was much longer than last year.

Photobucket

Brought the throw with me so I have something to lay on hard concrete.

Photobucket

Reading the book in line. I had loaded lot of videos on my iPod but the light was too bright so I had to turn to other avenues of self-entertaining.

Photobucket

Playing speed card game with my friend CJ, whose is an artist.

Photobucket

The line is being move to the inside of the building. Sweet!

Photobucket

CJ and I are being emo.

Photobucket

Aw, dammit.

Photobucket

Fuck me.

Photobucket

Texting and twittering like crazy. If you read my twitter on Day 0 of Comic Con, that's why I ramble a lot.

Photobucket

CJ is drawing to pass the time.

Photobucket

Light nap because I only slept an hour before I came to Comic Con, due to excitement. Reminds me of when I couldn't sleep well before I go to Disneyland. How nostaglic.

Photobucket

The main entrance to the building.

Photobucket

The line is being tightly controlled but this has its drawbacks. It didn't permit me to get first row of line, which I got last year. :(

Photobucket

Moments before I pick up my 4 days pass. This year was different because I actually had to provided my ID to ensure that I'm not a fraud. I saw someone registered under various cartoon characters. How amusing but I doubt it would work for him this year.

Photobucket

Next 5 hours of my life.

Photobucket

Goofing around.

Photobucket

Walking around to ease my boredom. Saw this couple, whose had cool steampunk costumes.

Photobucket

Moments before we enter the exhibition hall.

Photobucket

Sweet, I'm in!!!

Photobucket

Ah, I feel so home at here.

Photobucket
Photobucket

Very cool costumes!!!

Photobucket

Ready to go home for meal and rest.

Jesus, those Twilight fangirls. When I arrived at con center, they were already camping out, which is insane. They made first day of Comic Con pretty difficult. Only if Twilight panel would be in room 25 but that's meany inside me. 7 thousand scream fangirls in Hall H can't be any fun at all. :(
