ComicCon-ing: Fan Expo Dallas, MegaCon Orlando, and Comicpalooza News

We have a few cons in the Southeast coming up soon.  We will be focusing on the celebrity guests for the cons for right now and when it gets closer to the cons themselves we will start including the comic book artists.

Fan Expo Dallas is looking like it will be one of the better cons of the year.  Rare appearances by Tim Curry and Mark Hamill highlight the list of celebrities.

Other confirmed celebrities are:

• In addition to Mr. Curry, Meat Loaf, Nell Campbell, Patricia Quin, and Barry Bostwick will appear making for a great Rocky Horror Picture Show photo op.
• Adam West and Burt Ward of Batman
• Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley from Vampire Diaries
• Jeffery Dean Morgan and Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead
• Robin Lord Taylor from Gotham
• Drew Struzan, artist who designed Harry Potter and Star Wars posters.
• Stan Lee, of…well if you don’t know…

 

MegaCon is owned by the same company as Fan Expo Dallas so their guests right now overlap. Appearing at Megacon so far are:

• Jeffery Dean Morgan
• Norman Reedus
• Stan Lee
• Paul Wesley

 

Comicpalooza just started announcing guests. Announced are:

• Felicia Day
• Chad Coleman, Steven Ogg and Lawrence Gilliard, Jr of the Walking Dead.  I do collect autographs from members of the Wire, and already having Mr. Gilliard, I’m looking forward to adding Mr. Coleman to my collection.
• Amanda Wyss, Ronee Blakeley, and Robert Englund of A Nightmare on Elm Street.
• Chad Hardin, illustrator for Harley Quinn.  I know I said I wouldn’t do comic book artists just yet, but Mrs. Nola Nerd Couple is a huge fan.
