Alas, I have awakened too late to do much con blogging this morn. Have to scurry over to the convention center, machete my way through the masses and keep business appointments and do panels. Friday didn't seem as crowded as some feared but I've got a hundred bucks that says today more than makes up for it. As usual, I was happy with all my panels yesterday…but especially with the annual Jack Kirby Tribute Panel. Wait'll you see the transcript of this one in The Jack Kirby Collector.
Had a nice talk last night with Frank Miller. The biggest news out of the convention so far, I guess, is that Frank's signed to direct a forthcoming movie based on Will Eisner's The Spirit. I knew about this weeks ago but the announcement was embargoed, as they say, 'til now. Can't think of anyone better for the job.
Also, it was announced yesterday that the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon series, on which I worked eons ago will be coming out — all three seasons in one high-quality DVD set plus extras — in November. This is another one of those things I've known about for some time (and so did you if you read between the lines here) but was not allowed to announce. (One thing I learned and didn't know is that Garfield and Friends reruns are returning to TV. They join the Boomerang schedule in November.)
Have to get going. I'll try to write more tomorrow.
