Anyone going? Although I've known tons of people over the last 15+ years that have gone, I have never gone myself. Well, now I work for a small concept art book publisher that will have a sizable booth there. I will be there partly for business, partly pleasure. So I'm seeing if anyone else here goes and what day they might be there for possible meet ups. Unfortunately, the only day I can go is Friday. If I am at our booth (#1701) it would probably be around lunch time to help out during lunch breaks. Here's the website:

Otherwise, anyone interested in conceptual artists who've worked on major sci-fi, fantasy and horror films might want to check out our booth as many of the artists will be there. That includes designers that worked on Star Wars I,II & III, the Alien movies, the Batman movies, and the upcoming The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe among many others. The company website is:
http://www.designstudiopress.com/
and they'll be in booth #1701. There's not much on the website now, but there's 4 more books coming out in the next couple of months. Three will be premiered at Comic-Con.

Anyway, Atomic Cocktail and I will be there (at the convention, but not necessarily at the booth) if anyone else is going. (And yes, I'll be wearing an Atomic Cocktail costume. Oh, and Atomic also has done a ton of work for another company there, Sideshow Collectibles. If you go to their booth, you'll see his needlework in the Classic Movie Monsters series, the Planet of the Apes series, James Bond series and 1960s TV show characters like Maxwell Smart of Get Smart to name a few.)
