That's my favorite part about the mid-sized to large conventions. One can't wander the floor all day, but the ability to connect with other fans (or see the fan side of authors, etc.) is really cool. I've been going to Dragon*Con since I was 13, and it's evolved a lot (lost all of the comic book aspects), but for the… Read more

Good point - maybe we should be a little happier with our options. Read more

They do have wrestling at DragonCon... Read more

Settle for MMA? Read more

I'm with you on this - Heroes Con (it's a comic con, but I'll use it as an example) is a bit like this. Enough to have plenty of people on the floor, attract decent guests, but not so big that it is an inconvenience. Read more

I kinda like this rule. Everybody gives it a try. Would a bad TMNT mask work? Read more

On a similar (but more awkward note), comic book writer Mark Waid tells a story about two guys who flew him to a con as the guest of honor, only for their to be no convention - all a ploy to get their fill of MW. Read more

I personally showers 2x a day during conventions just to not be that guy. Read more

I've never been to a pure lit con, but I'd be all for it - pretty interesting. Would you have some sort of dealers' room? Would they sell rare editions or new books? Read more

I would be fine with a french fry flavor. Maybe those dry potato sticks from 7-Eleven? Read more

I wonder if they taste like rock candy. Read more

Gravity Falls is quickly becoming one of my favorite tv shows. Read more

It doesn't get a ton of coverage - I feel like most people think it's a silly hot wheels spin-off. There's some good stuff on it, we'll be covering it here in the future. Read more

Ernie Hudson gets the shaft too often. If they ever re-make the first one, Winston should be a 'buster from the beginning of the movie. I had no idea Arsenio voiced Winston on the original cartoon. Read more

If you want the previews, check out Charlie Jane's what to watch post on Mondays. Read more

I want a season of the Ghostbusters animated series voiced by the original cast. Read more

I think CN is waiting until the Fall to debut the new episodes of YJ & Green Lantern. We'll probably know more after Comic-Con next week. Read more

This warrants an info-graphic, something akin to where cuts of beef come from. Read more

Darn good call! I almost put the death ray on there, but it's more of a nice tale. Read more

They did, but the Japanese did alter the plague bacterium. The Soviets formulated an "extended-release" packaging that allowed it to be poured into warheads. Read more
