Okay, this is pretty cool. I just found this link on a friend's blog. I really like the Zatana(sp?). (Girl Magician costume.)

Zatanna ≠ villain

I'm a bit late to the party here, but better late than never, I suppose.
 
Rorschach, that costume is wicked cool!!!  I saw several versions of Harry at the con, but yours is definitely the best of the bunch.  If I had seen you there, I definitely would have stopped and ask to take a few pictures.

Amber, I think I ran into you and your husband in line for Jim's signing on Saturday and I'm wishing I had actually introduced myself.  :-\ 

Jim's panels and getting some books signed by him were definitely some of the highlights of Comic Con for me.  It figures that the man himself is every bit as funny and entertaining as his writing.  He's also one of the fastest talking people I've ever met; he could seriously give a couple of my favorite fast talking fictional characters (Sam Carter and Rodney McKay from the Stargate series) a run for their money.  :)  The next time Jim is doing a book signing in Portland or Seattle I will definitely be making the drive to see him again, and hopefully meet some of the folks from the boards here.

I'm not sure who I met, but saw at least three Harrys on Friday at the panel and think it was Rohrshach who gave me the Harry business card in the Mysterious Galaxy signing line on Thursday.  If anyone saw me at Con, I was wearing either a San Diego Star Wars Society club shirt (I was working at their booth a lot) or my Chicago Cubs Murphy (Saturday = cosplay day).

A couple people took photos of JB with my husband (as Harry) at the pre-Playing God signing on Saturday.  If it was someone who reads this, I'd love to have a copy of the pic (that was the day I forgot my purse & camera).

HI! to anyone I met -- next year I'm getting names and writing them down!!
Damn it, Harry!  That's not a plan, it's a Looney Tune!

We didn't go to the Saturday signing ;)

I think I saw it, too, but wasn't sure. It was on the TV Guide channel of our cable system here.
If you are up to no good, please do no good for me too, okay?   ;D
