Ye, we often poke fun - with him OR at him.
But he really is one hell of a guy (those of you who have never met him are really missing out!!!), and this wonderful community really needs to salute our favorite gran'pa!
YAY, Abin!
Let's all post our favorite Abin Quank moments.
for me, I have a hard time choosing which. But driving around Sandy Eggo, plotting out the comic book version of the Adventures of Everyday Girl is the first thing that comes to mind.

[clears throat, looks out at audience]
Remember that time at the Stumptown Comics fest when we didn't have enough booze for Sketchy's gallery reception, so Abin used his power ring to turn all the bottled water into absinthe?
Of course, I hate absinthe with a passion, but it's the thought that counts! Plus, all the cute little PDX alterna-hipsters at the show were super-impressed!
And then that one auburn-haired hottie in the orange gingham capri pants kept hitting on Abin by asking all those leading questions about "recharging," but he was totally modest and pretended not to notice.

I am!
He used to read me bedtime comics and his Mordru voice SCARED the HELL out of ME! (not as much as his Lana Lang voice, but still...)

The San Diego 2008 Abin Experience would be hard to beat.
But thinking about the one-and-only Wizard World Boston get together - where I believe Abin singlehandedly changed DC convention policy - always makes me smile.

Speaking of laptops, Abin saw my mini-notebook in Sandy Eggo and said "Even his laptop is cute!"
