  • San Diego Comic-Con – here we come!

    San Diego Comic-Con. It’s my favorite and least favorite time of year. So much fun! So much stress! Going to Cons for almost 15 years couldn’t even prepare me for the madness that is Comic-Con. Luckily, I’ve learned to relax, take it all in stride, and not try to do every. single. thing. Every year I…

  • HNG Podcast – 2013 Comic Con Part 1

    DSC01033 I’ve been recovering from a gnarly Comic Con cold (stoopid germs) all week so I’m running a bit behind on my Comic Con wrap-up posts. Stay tuned for a post that’ll include pictures and more details on the panels, but in the meantime, Darcy and I recorded a podcast where I go through my…

  • San Diego Comic Con 2013 Thursday Shenanigans

    It’s Day One of San Diego Comic Con 2013 and somehow I always manage to forget just HOW insane it is. So. Many. People. It’s always super stressful but it’s also so much fun. I decided to dress like Han Solo and my nephew just happened to wear his Jedi costume so we were pretty…

  • HNG Podcast: Pre-Comic Con Confab Conversation…thing.

  • San Diego Comic Con, Part 4 – Sunday Shenanigans

    This has been my craziest Summer ever. I feel like I’m never home and I pretty much haven’t been since the beginning of June. Some of the reasons have been great (weddings, visiting new family members, hiking through Yosemite) and some of them have been sad (Grandma’s funeral) but all of them have been very…

  • San Diego Comic Con, Part 2 – Friday Shenanigans

    I’ve been struggling to figure out how best to showcase my Comic Con shenanigans because I have over a thousand pictures taken over the course of 3 days. I did a post dedicated to the Panels and thought I might do posts dedicated to Costumes, Celebs, Exhibition Floor, etc. but no matter how I worked…

  • San Diego Comic Con, Part 1 – The Panels

    I promised detailed blogs about Comic Con and by golly, I aim to keep that promise. There’s just one problem. There’s waaaay too much for just one post. I tried. I’ve gone through approx. 1000 pictures (no joke) and narrowed them down to the best of the best and even then I was left with…

  • San Diego Comic Con 2012 (Sunday Highlights)

    Awwww, I’m sad. Comic Con is over 🙁 I’m starving, sleep-deprived, sore all over and yet I would go back and do it all again tomorrow. I’ll put together some really comprehensive SDCC posts in the next couple of days here with many more photos, video clips and details, but until then, here are some…
