Hall H: Fallen Soldier

"So we're agreed then?  After the 21-repulsor ray salute, we'll inter him in that bitchin' styrofoam glacier I made, then get the hell outta here before his mom shows up.

Then I'm totally gonna tell all my friends I touched a dead guy!

Stand by me, beeyotches!"

Slave Leia-Con

Now that the smoke has cleared and I've sifted through mountains of pics from Comic-Con, in which I counted more Slave Leias than I did Wolverines and Batmen combined - not to mention hilarious anecdotes like this one from Rich Johnston - I think it's safe to say that Slave Leia-Con is no longer an "if", but a "when".

I just want to be on record as having called it when that day arrives.  And, you know, be on the VIP list and stuff.

Didn't see that coming

Seriously, the first time you watched Empire Strikes Back, did you ever imagine that our culture would rise so high in concurrence with the economy crashing down around us like the horror stories from the '20s old people used to tell, and you'd wake up one day and suddenly Slave Leia is a career option?

I mean yeah, we hoped!  But who knew?!?  

This meeting of the Virgin League of America will be called to order

Wolverines, Gambits, Psylockes, Monarch Henchmen, Black Widows and big-ass tiara Luke Cage, presiding.
