AICN will see some of you at THE FAMOUS MONSTERS CONVENTION next Weekend!!!

Hey folks, Harry here... I'm giddy about this for a number of reasons. First... Holy Shit, I get to go to a FAMOUS MONSTERS CONVENTION!!! As a kid, I'd read about Famous Monsters Conventions, but my parents never had quite the cash to drive to New York City, where they always seemed to be. Instead, my parents threw their own conventions - which were pretty damn cool in their own right... but... FAMOUS MONSTERS CONVENTION always seemed like a dream to me. This also gets to be one of my Nephew's Birthday Presents (he's turning 10 tomorrow!) and thus far in his young life - through he's traveled the country with me... he's never done a convention. Why did I choose this? Well, you can't have your first convention be COMIC CON. That'd be like charging the beaches of Normandy without any training. You kinda need to find a smaller niche convention, get to a point where you don't feel intimidated talking to Con Guests - where you would feel... at home with the Convention Community that builds up... AND THEN, only after you've learned how to stand for hours on your feet, meet heroes at various stages of intoxication and have secured no less than 27 unpaid for autographs and a half dozen paid for autographs - can he graduate up to the utter madness that is COMIC CON. But for a first convention... I couldn't have a more perfect event to take him to. You see, KublaKhan (Gio's site name) - is a Zombie superfreak - and at this convention he can meet a ton of the talent behind his favorite Zombie films... Romero's Holy Trilogy, RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD and he himself will represent DAVEY, THE KID ZOMBIE from PATHOGEN - thus adding to the zombie cast of guests. I dare say he's the youngest Zombie guest at the convention. I just wanted to share the fact that I'll be at Famous Monsters Convention for July 9th through the 11th in Indianapolis, Indiana. In addition to me, Father Geek (Jay Knowles) will be attending - along with Capone (Steve Prokopy) - so feel free to come on down to the fabulous Wyndham Indianapolis-West next weekend. We'll be hanging out late every night and mixing it up with fans and guests - just as Uncle Forry would have intended! See you folks there!
