      We've been discussing it on this link.

      Hey guys, the Lexington Comic Con is only about 2 weeks away. They have a pretty good guest list, especially for a show only in it's 2nd year, but most of us guys are most excited about Captain Marvel himself, Jackson Bostwick. So, does anyone want to meet up there? Maybe meet up and go to dinner after the con? Me and the

                My son and I went to the con today, and we got to hang out with Tom (MIB41) and had just a great time. We all got to meet and have our pics taken with Jackson Bostwick, Captain Marvel himself. He was a very nice and engaging person. Really enjoyed the time speaking to him.





                We also met Greg (luey), and I bought a sweet Palitoy Batman and Robin set off of him! He had some astounding Mego stuff.

                There were a few other Mego pieces here and there. I did score a Flash Gordon Dr. Zarkov for a measly $12. He only had his suit and boots, but Tom pointed out I was nuts to pass him up at that price. Thanks pal!

                  I had a blast spending the day with Chris and his son. It was a great time and we even found something neither of us had ever seen before. A great time and a memorable experience. Thanks for sharing it with me! And it was a pleasure meeting you Greg. Great talk! You have an AWESOME booth!

                    Good meeting you guys, that place was crazy packed all day, the show promoters had to turn the lights out to get people to leave at 6... Back tomorrow!

                      That picture both delights and depresses me. I so wanted to go and meet Jackson, but I am glad you guys were able to. Things here sorta took that option away, but I suppose there will be other opportunities.
                      I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                      If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                        I got a chance to give it a look & I am glad I did! Great crowds and plenty to look at and great to catch up with some old friends! Greg brought plenty of Mego's which makes any drive worthwhile.

                          We missed you pal, but we were thinking about you and your family. I hope we can all get together for this next year...and hopefully sooner!

                            Scott we missed not having you there. But as Chris said, you and your wife were very much on our minds. And although you may not show in those pictures, your spirit was very much there. Your family bro.
