With that first fresh breeze of under 90 degree weather, also comes October and what happens in October, my fellow geeks?

New York Comic Con!

This will be the first time I attend this bustling convention and in the Big Apple no less. Hmm, a Texan in the Big Apple….sounds like the makings of a sitcom, but I digress. I read Deadrabbit92’s thrilling account of what it was like to wade through the ass tons of people at this particular convention and I swore to be there.

If you’d like to break out that grade A stalking gear (namely your smart phone equipped with Twitter and veritable amounts of courage to say hi), here’s where myself, Ladyvader99, and Deadrabbit92 can be found:

As Thursday and Sunday are exclusively set aside for gratuitous amounts of touristy tourist stuffs and sampling the cuisines of the locals, Friday looks like this:

As I’m sure we’ll be most tired from our excursions (and not to mention the sore arm muscles from the bags of swag I hope to procure), I think one last lap around the convention would do us well before bidding adieu and getting ready for the chaos that is Saturday.

Any time in between panels, or during the hours of missed/filled to capacity panels, will be spent roaming around the surrounding Block section, the sure to be huge exhibition hall, perusing the wares in the dealer room, and generally fucking around with my cohort.

If you haven’t bought tickets to this illustrious experience, I implore you to do so and meet up with us to have fun times filled with sexual innuendos and plushies.

Keep an eye on both @IHOGeek and @Ladyvader99 twitters (I’m unsure if I can persuade @Deadrabbit92 to actively use hers) for instantaneous whereabouts (and possibly prizes to be won from us)!!
