MY COMIC CON PLANS

The San Diego Comic Con is so huge (80,000+ people expected this year), so overwhelming, so impossible to meet up with friends that I'm posting the list a panels I will try to attend so you can find me if you want...

I will be hanging my hat on the convention floor at the Asifa-Hollywood table which is booth 5374 (across from the TokyoPop display). I cannot guarantee that I'll stick to this schedule, but based on the advance programming scheduled posted on the comic con website - here's what I hope to see:

THURSDAY
2:30 GOLDEN & SILVER AGE PANEL - Room 8
3:00 COMIC CON'S 35th YEAR - Room 1B or...
3:00 - FREAKS & GEEKS REUNION - Room 6ab
4:40 - CFQ SUMMER MOVIE PREVIEW Room 6CDEF
6:00 - HISTORY OF U.S. ANIME - Room 7

FRIDAY
11:00 - JACK ADLER - Room 8
1:00 - I'm interviewing SID JACOBSON - Room 3
1:00 - CHUCK McCANN - Room 5ab (I'm pissed I will miss the first hour of this...)
2:30 - THE INCREDIBLES & BRAD BIRD - Room 20
3:00 - CARTOON NETWORK PREVIEW - Room 6ab
4:00 - BOB CLAMPETT TRIBUTE (I'm on the panel) - Room 8
6:00 - TOM SITO on ANIMATION STRIKES - Room 7b
6:00 - THE INKWELL (new fanboy TV show) Room 9
9:00 - LADY DEATH screening (I predict I will skip this)

SATURDAY
12:30 - Fred Ladd & GIGANTOR - Room 2
3:00 - SKY CAPTAIN & TEAM AMERICA preview (two movies I'm dying to see) - Hall H
5:30 - CARTOON NETWORK ADULT SWIM PANEL - Room 6ab
6:00 - ANIMATION DEVELOPMENT PANEL Room 2
8:30 - WORST CARTOON EVER (My screening!) - Room 6ab
10:00 - HAIR HIGH (Bill Plympton's latest film) - Room 6ab

SUNDAY
Before I leave, I'll check out the dealers room in the morning and juggle these:
1:00 - JOHNNY DC (DC's kids comics panel) - Room 3
1:00 - JOSS WHEDON (Buffy creator) - Room 20
1:30 - TEACHER'S PET PANEL (Gary Baseman and co.) - Room 5ab

These panels are just the tip of the iceberg, and I reserve the right to change my mind and just sit in room 8 or 6AB the entire con. I'm already exhausted! Hope to see you there!
