November 7, 2013November 7, 2013 / David Chosid / 2 Comments

There are a few good reasons why I was really excited about RI Comic Con 2013. First, it was really close to my house. But more importantly, it had an amazing and huge guest list. Here’s a list of just some of the awesome guests:

Danny Glover (Die Hard of course)
Billie Dee Williams (y’know)
Anthony Michael Hall and Ilan Mitchell Smith (both leads from Weird Science)

Sam Jones (Flash freakin’ Gordon!)
Sarah Douglass and Jack O’Halloran (baddies from Superman 2)

Alan Oppenheimer (Skeletor, Masters of the Universe)
Larry Kenny (Liono, Lord of the Thundercats)
Jeremy Shada (Finn from Adventure Time)

I’m in full on New York Comic Con recovery mode. Thank God that today is Columbus Day and I don’t have to go to work because my body wouldn’t be able to take it.
