Alright, so I'll start with Adam West since I mentioned him in previous post! Meeting him was super exciting and super nerve raking. When I got to him it felt like I was supposed to talk to his guard cause he instantly started telling me about prices and what not. I got my BluRay copy of "Batman the movie" all ready when suddenly Adam asked me to "do my Riddler laugh" I got thrown for a loop. I sat there thinking "what's a Riddler laugh? Didn't he say in an interview that Frank Gorshin had a distinct laugh. Does he mean that. " So I got trapped in my head, totally failed, but I still met him and got his autograph and he was happy and nice, so whatever, I can still die happy now!
Greatest part of it though, was being stopped for 352 pictures with people or by people I don't even know. Makes me really feel like I did a great job on my Riddler Costume (cause I already knew my friends did great jobs on theirs). Everyone from little kids to grownups (and sometimes creepers) love to see people all dressed up. Once some pics are up I'll be posting them here!
Speaking of pictures! I am currently on the hunt for all 352 images taken by people I don't know! If you were at wizard world (comic con) Philadelphia this weekend (Saturday the 12th) and saw a Riddler, Poison Ivy, Two face, Batman/woman (girl dressed as batman) or Penguin let me know! Share a link, I'd love any help finding those images.
I knew it would be a good day considering I was able to a copy of Superman/Batman no. 26 within minutes of being there. James Marsters was also a amazing person, so easy to talk to and he talked about how he has a storm trooper costume that he dresses up in when his kids go to sleep, making him one of the most amazing people ever! And we entered the costume contest which was cool but very time consuming. We got to be in pictures near the batmobile, hang with storm troopers, be in newspapers on maybe on TV, and generally feel like we were part of some awesome club!
Big regrets? I wasn't very cool around Adam West, but honestly my worst day meeting Adam West out does any day not meeting Adam West. The costume contest coulda been more organized, totally not my fault. Beyond that, perfection!!!!

ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU!!!!
ReplyDeleteWHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! That was such an amazing day. We were awesome. My only regret is the costume contest just cause I thought we were sort of lame and it was poorly organized and took too long. But whatever cause the rest of the day was fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I like the rainy background. I was so excited by all the new layouts they provided! haha
