I do apologize but today there is a convention going on and we didn’t get the comic strip done. Hopefully we can press out two more next week.

Its not a lie. We are doomed. Apparently the human race decided it was ok to make robots that feed off the bio-chemicals of dead humans. (Mainly in the battlefield.) So where does it stop? When will the robots evolve and not be able to decide what is dead and what’s not?
How about if they can only feed on dead beings? Oh then your safe. BAM! One blow to the head with a robot arm and your down….dead. Time to feed. Enjoy your time now till Zombie Judgment Day. *nods*

So yeah, I was a little bit worried when I picked up this movie the day it came out. I heard that a lot of people said it wasn’t what it could of been. One of my good friends said you really had to read the graphic novel first. I did, somewhat. I read enough to understand the characters and what was going on, so when I watched the movie, I knew the background a bit and not knowing the end of the movie I think is what made it good for me.

The movie itself has everything I pretty much want in a movie. Wide range of characters, drama, comedy, action, suspense, – I’m sorry yeah the movie was just freaking cool!

But to even add more to it, I found this and nearly laughed to death. the “Saturday Morning Watchmen Cartoon” – prepare yourself

We all have friends who have this problem – they have more friends online then they do in real life. I don’t know what to say…a friend is a friend?

So at work I was spending some of my down time playing “Bejeweled on facebook” I think I played over 100 games and bejeweled my brains out. I even played the game so much, I broke the game. take a look:

Last time I checked, that little empty space shouldn’t be there! So before my brain exploded I then decided it was time to quit.

Honestly…would you be Conman’s sidekick?

Dancing with everyone rocked! Even though I can’t dance! Thanks to everyone who praticipated and enjoy the video! (I’ll write more later, but I’m about to go play xbox live lan party…….yeah that’s how geeky I am.

ConCraze: dancing at Tokyo in Tulsa from Nicktechyguy on Vimeo.

What a wild trip. It was pretty cool in Tulsa. Except for the heat. About 109 degrees outside last time my friends and I looked. Trust me – geeks don’t go outside. White skin doesn’t go well with the sun. That’s why conventions are usually held in hotel’s with sky-walks to get between buildings.

Any who I didn’t make it to many panels. I mainly sat with my friend Jeff of DreamGear Studios and told people about the comic. I did attend the Artist Alley 101 panel and we all had a pretty cool time in there and learned some pretty nifty Ideas. Thanks again to Marie who headed that one. Make sure to check her stuff out from RosaleenDhu Designs. One of her good friends (and mine) is Beth. Beth does not have a site yet, but when she gets one I’ll throw it up on the Links page. Also met another friendly person by the name of Eden. She gave me a discount on one of her items so check her stuff out on Deviantart. Also sitting beside her was Brent. Check his Deviantart as well.Also met one very cool writer by the name of David Doub. Hes got a comic by the name of Dusk, about vampires…check it out here.

Also want to give a big heads up to two awesome dudes – Bob and Eric. They got a great comic called Boodachitaville and I have to say, I’m impressed. They also helped find a cool place to fill my stomach and then some. My stomach will never look at me the same way again. So they were totally cool. Check out there comic – it’s a must.

So to help my comic, I thought I’d inspire some people by asking them to dance with me at the convention. Turned out into three things: The good, the bad, and the ugly.

The good :  Makes  an enjoyable video, I had fun, they had fun, and I’ll post the video in the next few days for everyone to see and get a good laugh.

The ugly: (I know wrong order) – during the first dance, with a furry, I made my final pose and dislocated my leg. I hit the ground and it popped back in. Ten minutes later I was dancing again!

The bad: My camera man (bless his heart) was laughing so hard at that moment he accidentally stopped recording and we missed that great moment of me in pain. Oh well. I do have a shot of me holding the camera since the cameraman still laughing as I limp away. I’ll have it in a day or two. Check it out.

Overall, I had an excellent time. Thank you Tokyo in Tulsa 2009, I hope to see you in the future. Or past if I get that time machine.

So yeah today I leave to goto to Tokyo in Tulsa. I’m pretty excited to go really. Driving up with my friend and then I’m going to chill with Jeff from DreamGear Studios. So if any of you are going, I hope to see you there!

On another note I feel real stupid. I really have to thank my excellent roommate for saving me cause yes, I did misspell retarded on my last comic. It’s bad enough that I misspelled a word, but that one in general…wow. So yeah, a big thanks to my roommate for covering my back on that one. God I feel stupid.

So back to Tulsa, I’ll be mainly around the artist dealer room and I’ll be the guy with the tiger striped black and blond hair – so feel free to say hi, I don’t bite. Not hard at least.

So since I’m going to Tulsa and I just went to Otaku Omaha, I’m going to have to hold off on today’s comic (I’m sorry) but I’ll see if I can make it up to you all somehow. So till we all meet again!

I’m sorry, but cosplaying is the bomb. I don’t care if you throw a towel around your neck with a safety pin with a superman shirt and walk around talking to people…your guys are the coolest. That’s if you mingle with others. If you just sit around looking at people walk by – then your just a freak in a getto superman outfit.

I’ve known some cosplayers who make costumes from ducttape. But what is it that brings out the best of conventions? The way these people will act for you. If they get up and pose and play out their character, it brings a smile to my face. They, are the life of the con. I don’t care what anyone else says.

Of course on the turn around you have the coolest cosplays in the world, and when it comes to photos everyone wants a shot. I’ve heard of people spending around two hundred to thousand dollars sometimes. WOW!……Dang. yeah I think the most I’ve spent around was $100 to put my drunken Vash costume together, but a good friend from the midwest came and did an even better original Vash. I loved it. I can say I was jealous, but I still played out the drunken Vash and made plenty of new friends.

So anyway – Love your cosplayers. Go up and say hi, even if it’s getto superman. They are there to make friends. Its up to you to appreciate them for who they are!

DO IT!
