BTW, who's going to color those B&W drawings by Nighty, Drake and the others. They really deserve to be seen in full color! I'll bet they'll be stunning.

Oliver Nome, he takes commissions at all/most of the cons he's at. He's part of the Wildstorm studios bunch of folks.

I'll have to remember that, considering that I scored the table card with this sketch.

I was sorry too. I was looking forward to meeting some of my old CoH running mates in person. We'll catch you next time though Vee!

I thought it was going to be a real pain to have to stick on any stickers we gave to people - and that not many people would want one if they couldn't just take it and put it in their pocket. But it actually worked out well; people were quite happy to have a sticker on their badges and the stickers and flight rings were very popular. Also, people got a real kick out of the Lad/Lass etc. name tags and thinking up their superhero name. The banner was a huge hit and Gary could easily have sold a bunch if he'd been allowed to. The restaurant draw was also pretty popular. People really like the giveaways - it gets them to stop and look, they don't have to buy anything.
The table was a big success, IMO. It served its initial purpose of providing a place for us to congregate. It also celebrated the Legion anniversary, which, apart from the panels, wasn't well covered by DC as far as I'm concerned. It also worked as some outreach to people who hadn't heard of Legion World - so maybe we have some new members. It would be well worth repeating, provided there are enough people to man the table and contribute to costs.

Great! Didn't know Drake was in, too! That's five of us, then. LEGION-John had a peice, too, right next to MEL's.

And I'll send out the stickers to everyone once I get my life back on track here...hopefully soon.

I agree fully.
Words cannot express the metaphoric "Jaws" fin that snuck up on me when I discovered the "no stickers" clause... everyone at the table handled it like a pr! No problems at all.
Everything I envisioned could go wrong did not, and I can only thank each and every one of you (especially Gary).

So from the context clues here, you were not allowed to give stickers unless you stuck 'em on people? WTF? Was this the Bizarro World convention?
(And couldn't this pose sexual harassment concerns? )
