Trolling Emerald City Con

Torvald and the pros

When you go to a comic con, it's always a good idea to have a gimmick or two – some unique stamp that distinguishes you from other fans, makes you easy to remember, etc. For Laura Gjovaag, one of her best hallmarks (aside from her sparkling personality) is Torvald the Troll. You can read about Torvald's origin here.

Laura was very busy taking Torvald around to, and snapping photos of him with, various comic pros and movie stars attending the Emerald City Comicon this past weekend. The great thing about these photos is how posing with Torvald often brings out the personality of the person in the shot. At right is Laura's photo of Torvald and Margot Kidder.

You can read Part 1 of Laura's Emerald City con report here.
