Wizard World Philly '08: Day Two
So Many Panels, Not Enough Coffee
by Sarah
I spent most of the second day of Wizard World severely under-caffeinated and wishing for a good cup of coffee. Day Two can be summarized as a series of panels with short breaks in between.
We started out at the DYNAMITE Panel, which we covered over here.
Next, Luke and I split up so that he could catch the MARVEL Secret Invasion panel, while I headed over to see what the guys from ASPEN had to say.
Break for lunch? Not today! Instead we caught the afternoon panels: DC Crisis Now, TOP COW Herd it Through the Bovine (cute, TOP COW, real cute), MARVEL Cup of Joe (man, I need coffee), and the TriForce panel. Good times, especially when a chainsaw-gun-wielding Cole Train flipped out on some nonexistent Locusts.
Of course, it wasn't all work and no play. When we got a few minutes between panels, we hit the floor and chatted with some convention-goers, particularly the ones in neat costumes. Take a look at our new friends.
One thing we didn't have any time for is shopping. That's probably for the best, since we already spent a million billion dollars yesterday. One more day of Wizard World Philly remains. Stay tuned to TheQuarterbin for the last day of coverage and lots more nerdy goodness.

i'm interested to know what is available at wizard world for the bargain-basement price of a million billion dollars. NEED MORE PICS!
I didn't notice at the time, but that Dr. Strange guy looks just like that one actor... ah, what's his name?...
You can't go through a con like that without getting some awesome swag.
I wish I was more of a comic geek. Other than the occasional Sonic the Hedgehog comic in the grocery store and the Oni comic by Dark Horse I was never really exposed to the media, but I think I'd like to start reading them in my spare time.
COLE TRAIN?!
Alan Arkin. That's who that Dr. Strange looks like.
Dude, I was there on Saturday, and Chris and I went over to the Reading Terminal Market for lunch at Dininc's Roast Beef (hands-down the best sandwich in Center City) and who did we see? Oh just Joe Quesada eating his own Dinic's sammich.
Who would have thought that the man many credit with single-handedly saving Marvel would have to eat just like you and me?
