Overheard at San Diego 2008, part 1

Rumors, chatter, and the real low-down

Continuing our award winning wackiness from last year, ComicMix presents the ongoing whispers that you might have missed while you were on line waiting to get in...

On the way to the Dr. Who panel:
"If I see another Stormtrooper, I'm going to drop-kick one."

Luckily, we found one that's just the right size to drop-kick...

Around Entrance A:
"Find The Six? And what the hell is that guy with the 5-3 on his back?"
"Third base to first?"

Comics pro who wishes to remain anonymous:
"Chris Tucker is really upset that all of his scenes as Ebony have been cut out of the Spirit movie."

The Ebony line is very funny. Glenn, will you be covering the MST3K Event on Friday?

Back in 2006, Dan Shive did a non-continuity sequence of his webcomic El Goonish Shive, in which Sarah, the experience con-goer and Susan, the newbie, went to SanDiego. it starts here, and runs for some time afterward (though, sadly, not completed). The first strip, in particular, is even more appropriate this year than then, apparently.

(Should you happen to check it out, i call your attention in particular to a Very Funny throwaway gag in the sxth strip.)
