How the HECK did I miss this?

(Yes the quality is poor but…but wow…)

Here We Go Again

Next Saturday we’re taking the train down to New York to go to the 2009 New York Comic Con. You may recall we went last year.

The organizers are saying the event is bigger this year, both in terms of floorspace, exhibitors and attendees. Notable the game company and anime company presence is apparently larger (and both were big last year)! It promises to be a lot of fun and we’re very much looking forward to it.

Needless to say, I’ll be picking up swag for certain readers of this blog as well 🙂

Oh, and I’m also planning on blogging the event from my cellphone, so keep an eye out for that.

Go On – Name Them All!

The following image is thanks to this guy:

Click on it and see if you can name them all. Who is that fourth from the left, in the blue-gray suit? (And I assume that is Patrick Duffy as The Man From Atlantis next to him?) And who’s the  girl in the red/blue outfit standing next to Bruce Banner (not to mention the Captain America dude behind her)? Was there some USA Captain America series in the 70’s that didn’t screen in Australia?

As for the spaceships…well you’d have to be a half-man not to recognize them all (note: thats a challenge to AW and BS). Except maybe for the round one above the dalek, with the circles sticking out. It’s familiar, but I can’t quite name it.

And what is Twiki holding?
