Oh! Extra special shoutout to the lady who was unintentionally(?) funny at comic con because she was blocking the middle of the walkway while she stopped to talk to the kid in front of her about something

Ok. Some of my CW-DC verse fangirl dreaming came true this weekend when I got to meet Colton Haynes. He literally made my con experience when I got to chat with him yesterday at Winnipeg Comic-Con. It was so much fun! Anyways, don't know if Colton Haynes still lurks on here at all - but figuring hashtagging could get his attention if he does - just to let him know he was awesome. (Also, that I regret not getting his Pokemon Go info - I'm always up for new people to exchange gifts etc with! - DM me Colton, I'll add you, swear I won't tell a soul who you are).

Also - Does anyone want to help me fancast him on here? Do we do that anymore on here? I want to get him back on tv somewhere somehow. (I have this great idea that he'd be awesome in the Valdemar series being developed. Depending where they start, I could see him as Moondance or heck, adult Vanyel? (should it be Vanyel's books and he could totally do that - Vanyel's about 37 in the last book!) or Wintermoon (should it be Mage Winds.)

This very nice and trustworthy elf gave me a ring this weekend. You all should hear what he's got to say. I feel like Middle-earth would really benefit from his ideas...

(Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with the event or its organizers. I just created this blog as a means to pass the time. Main: @weirdbird74)

On November 2nd, 2024 at the Burton Cummings Theatre, Winnipeg will be host to a 50th anniversary celebration of Brian De Palma's 1974 cult-classic-horror-comedy-rock-opera…

Paul Williams (Swan) and Peter Elbling, Archie Hahn and Jeffrey Comanor (The Juicy Fruits) will appear as special guests, "along with others" according to the official Facebook post.

The main event at 7PM will feature a screening of the film, a cast QnA session, a costume competition, and a live performance by the tribute band SWANAGE, with more fun to be announced in the future.

In addition, a screening of Malcolm Ingram's Phantom Of Winnipeg documentary will be held on the evening of November 1, hosted by Harold Oblong and featuring Kevin Smith, and a matinee showing of POTP featuring Williams and the Fruits will be held in the afternoon of November 2nd, before the main event.

Tickets to the main event are now sold out, though they are occasionally being officially resold on Ticketmaster, so keep an eye out!

Sorry for the wait, here's the soundbytes from Alan Tudyk onstage with Summer Glau at Winnipeg Comic Con. Every question asker received an autographed bit of ephemera from his work travels. The panel was more firefly-centric but he spoke a few times about his voice acting work. Here's all the times he talked about Wreck It Ralph!

Note: sorry if you can hear me giggling throughout, it's not my fault he's hilarious! as for other audio quality issues, this was recorded on an iphone. Still cool, IMO.

Alan Tudyk discusses how he got into voice over, and talks about his experience voice acting for Wreck it Ralph.

here i've cut out the asker for anonymity's sake. The question was "who was your favourite disney character you've played?". I did not expect that voice to come out of this totally normal-looking guy, omg.

at this point in the panel we were running out of time, so it was requested that askers try to clip down their questions, possibly to a "yes or no" format. Originally, I'd planned to ask what part of his performance as King Candy he'd had the most fun with, but i opted for short and sweet instead. the hotel room keys he's talking about in the clip were the objects he was signing to hand out to askers. I got one from his stay at the Ritz-Carlton in Atlanta! Ignore my goofy laugh, i was just so cheesed that i'd been able to ask any question at all.

UPDATES: Effin' Birds Appearances & Hawaiian Shirts

Had a few additions and subtractions to my fall tour. If your local comiccon-esque event didn't invite me, find their feedback form on their website and let them know how much you wanted to see me there. I'm in the midst of planning my 2025 appearances right now.

Up next:

FAN EXPO Canada, August 22-25 Dragon Con, August 30 - September 2 Madison Comic & Pop Culture Expo, September 14-15 Cincinnati Comic Expo, October 18-20 Twin Cities Con, November 8-10

Unfortunately, Winnipeg Comiccon and Ottawa Comiccon decided to rescind my invitation this year for budget reasons. Hopefully I'll get back to those shows in the future! Feel free to hit up their Guest Suggestion Survey on their guest page if you'd like to see me there. (Please be polite, they are nice people who had to make a business decision.)

Hawaiian Shirts

I have 30 or so EAT FARTS Hawaiian shirts left from San Diego Comic Con, so I've added them to my store. Get them while you can!

Also available are what will be, at least for now, the last run of Oh My God, What The Fuck Hawaiian shirts.

I do have a few of each size in my luggage and will definitely have some at FAN EXPO Canada in Toronto next week.

In honour of the 10th Anniversary of CartoonNetwork's OVER THE GARDEN WALL. Our studio pupper decided to show off her Wirt costume - which she was proud to show off to Elijah Wood at the 2024 Winnipeg Comic Con .

Hey Alice! Really random question but what cons happen in Toronto besides fan expo? (Specifically looking for June augest ones) I swear there’s more. I’m not sure who else to ask this or where to find con information haha. Alternatively do you know of con information in Vancouver canada? Thank you

hi! fellow torontonian spotted 🫡🫵

for large scale anime/gaming/geek cons in toronto, there's: - toronto comic con (march)* - toronto game expo (march) - anime north (may) - anime fiesta (july) - beware as i heard this one is not great for events but maybe they'll improve, smaller event - fan expo (aug)* - furnal equinox (march) - toronto game expo (nov) * good luck applying to these bc the rebooking rate is INSANE and you will also be out a $800 deposit for a whole year

yeah............. toronto has a huge population but as you can see there's really not much in the summer LMAO which is why these few cons are really important to us. and canadians opt to travel for cons during the mid summer season. americans have it good haha. here are some other popular ones: - g anime (jan, gatineau QC) - yeti con (june, blue mountain ON) - ai kon (july, winnipeg MB) - animethon (aug, edmonton AB) - otakuthon (aug, montreal QC) usually same weekend - the only out of province event i attend currently, i really like otakuthon and personally i did really well, but i have heard from others that the profits this year were not as good as last year. (keep in mind the small business culture is huge and competitive right now) - london comic con (sept, london ON) during off-peak season there are also a few markets (bamtori studio has been hosting them every few months and they're so goated!!!), there've been more buzz on markets in recent years as the small business scene boomed. personally i don't think my art suits markets demographic so i don't apply for them/ this post will not cover markets. vancouver events: - anime revolution (aug) usually same weekend as animethon and otakuthon. i have heard conflicting opinions on anirevo so please do your own research on this con. rebooking rate is crazy. - fan expo vancouver (feb) for any informa canada run events, be aware the rebooking rate is extremely high. - emerald city comic con (march) - forgive me for putting an american con here

if i had to travel to the west coast id pick emerald city comic con, i heard it's pretty good to travel out to (and the other ones id have no chance of getting in anyways) if anything i know about these events through hearsay and by googling ahaha. if a con is good then more artists will recommend them generally. you can also join artist alley network international (AANI, you can google them for the application to their discord). personally im not sure how long ill be doing cons as i've been putting off working on my animation portfolio for so long (animation is kind of grim rn so a lot of us have been relying on cons)... and im not sure if ill travel beyond montreal next year... but yeah... hope this helps!
