SQUEE! David Hewlett scheduled for New York Comic Con

[wraithfodder]

We missed out on NYCC tickets for Saturday, the first time EVER, because we always got them at a local comic book shop and they sold out in ten minutes, while I was stuck at work, so I ordered Friday tickets. Then today the schedule was announced. It was like it was meant to be!

They don't list him as a guest?

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

He's listed as a speaker. I don't know if they'll do autographs at the end of the panel. Sorta hoping they will as I don't see much chance to see him otherwise, at least that wouldn't cost me hundreds for a Creation Con...

[timespirt.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it will be the first time he has come to NY that I know of.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I know. My friend who is going with me to NYCC doesn't know yet that we're going to being staying late so I can see this panel. Once in a lifetime opportunity!

[timespirt.livejournal.com]

Have fun.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Thx!

To my knowledge he's never done a NY Comic Con before. I've been going for several years and haven't seen him.

[timespirt.livejournal.com]

Yeah because I would have gone myself just to see him but John Barrowman would have tempted me as well. Didn't find out soon enough to even think about buying tickets.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I saw that John Barrowman will be doing photo ops/autographs on Friday, so that's my chance to actually meet him :)

[timespirt.livejournal.com]

Wish I had known far enough in advance to get tickets myself. Have fun hon!

This is the one with Rainbow and Jewel in it too, I think?

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Not sure. Gotta research it!

Great. David goes to a convention that I can actually get to and it's sold out on the day he's there. Yes, I'm bitter.

But, congrats to you!

The con is almost totally sold out except for Thursday. That's never happened before. We're thinking next of buying 3 day tickets (if they're not too pricey) just so if we need to swap days, we can. Sorta glad now I missed out on Saturday tickets!
