Paul Levitz reads books. I heard it on that podcast earlier this week. What an iconoclast! And he looked so normal when I saw him in one of those JLU disc "extras" last year, too. Tsk.

She kept the hearts later on, rhino. Only they had arrows through them. Really big arrows.

The 7-year old and I tried to get Timber Wolf's autograph at C2E2 today, but...well, you see what happened.

Yes, I met them!!!!! <Fan boy squeeee!> It was very brief -- it was the end of their time at the counter. I had to practically shove Mark Waid and some other nobody (Phil Hester?) to get them to stop hogging Paul Levitz. Yes, Mark Waid is a convention guest hog! I always knew it.
Yildiray is a charming fellow. He seemed pleased (I think) that I asked him how to pronounce his name correctly (something I had been obsessing about). It's Yil-di-RYE CHEE-nar, as best I can tell. He did the sketch of Timber Wolf at the 7-year old's request. There was a fellow behind me with kids, too, and I'm pretty sure he was Turkish. Both guys faces lit up when they started talking.
Mr. Levitz acted delighted to meet us. My son managed to put him in his place with the comment "I didn't know the Legion was in a comic book!" We talked for awhile about comics to read with kids. He recommended Lee & Kirby, and I told him I was hunting for an old trade with the original Galactus saga in it. His eyes lit up and he agreed that was a good one. We then debated whether the "ultimate nullifier" or the teeny doohickey, as I called it, was a good way to end the story. He's eager for fan feedback on his new Legion stories, saying "I'm easy to find."
As you can tell, I did nada to pump them for story hints and spoilers. I was totally overcome a la Chris Farley Show, and enjoying the chance to meet Paul after all these years. He looks very excited and happy.

Hah! I think that would be illegal in Illinois.
