Wizard Toronto Comic-Con - March 26-28, 2010 - IP's
Posted: Mon Mar 29, 2010 7:00 pm
Volunteered and attended all three days of Wizard's first Comic Con in Toronto. Here are my celebrity IP's. For anyone comic oriented, I got Cameron Stewart, Dale Keown, and a bunch of others to do sketches for me.
Jewel Staite ($25) was super sweet and just as pretty in person...she signed a Serenity poster for me (I provided the poster)...no chance to really chat with her but was very cool to meet her.

Ernie Hudson ($25) was really nice...appreciated that I remembered he was in "The Crow"...signed a Ghostbusters poster (I provided)...added, at my request, the "when somebody asks if you're a God, you say yes!" line above his signature...

Doug Jones ($35 incl poster)...snagged the last full size Fantastic Four poster he was selling...he was really cool....hugged me and my friend...

Gil Gerrard ($25) was awesome...totally knows how to make fans happy...joked around and was very cool...best meet of the con for me...signed an original Buck Rogers movie poster (I provided)
Erin Gray ($25) was in a really bad mood...and while she wasn't nasty to me...it was very awkward to hear her ranting (after getting off the phone) and be the only person within ten feet (end of the day)...she shortchanged me on cost...handed her forty and she gave me back $10 instead of $15 but I wasn't going to argue with the mood she was in...still glad she signed (the same poster, obviously, that Gil Gerrard signed) but a bit disappointed she couldn't be a little more gracious to a) a volunteer and b) a paying customer...but, such is life...
No pic...(forgot to take it for this batch and not going to get camera out again)
