Hey, For those interested, I just wanted to let everyone know about the upcoming Niagara Falls Comic Con on June 9th, 2012. Celebrities scheduled to appear are Dustin "Screech" Diamond, Robert Picardo, Chandler Riggs, Gunnar Hansen, Burt Ward and wrestling talent Bret "Hitman" Hart, Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, Greg "The Hammer" Valentine and "The Genius" Lanny Poffo. I think I'll be heading down for this one for sure!! You can check out all the details at their site: nfcomiccon.com/ |

Never knew Niagara Falls had its own Comic Con. Is this the first year? Sadly, none of the wrestling guests interest me as I'm not really familiar with them (other than Bret Hart, but only by name) being too young at the time.  I'm a huge Star Trek fan and would've went for Robert Picardo, but I already met him (for the second time) at the Toronto ComiCon in March. The "green screen" photo-ops tempted me for a bit as I'd love to have a photo with Robert Picardo on the bridge of the USS Voyager (really wish Toronto ComiCon had this), but it's not something I can't do myself in Photoshop with the photo-op I already got in March. In fact, I decided to try it and just threw one together moments ago and going to get it printed out. Money saved. ;D |

It was pretty good. I went early in the day, left by 12:00. Bret Hart had a huge line and didn't come out until 11:45. Poffo and Beefcake were at a table together. LLP was $10 for everything, including a signed book. Beefcake was $20. Virgil was there too, but I didn't see how much he was charging. I didn't see what Bret was charging either. Valentine was a no-show I guess, or later.
There were a lot of booths with wrestling stuff, one guy had most of the recent elites/basics at highly inflated prices.

^ i didnt go because it was gonna end up being too much money for what i wanted.. im sure bret was probably $30 an item or so.. beefcake and valentine $20 each, LLP and virgil probably $10...just one of each is at basically $100 + $15-20 entry + gas.. way too much.. and i wanted 2 items from bret, and dream team..
still mad at dream team for bailing on the dr fleas signing they were suppose to have in december
