This con always seems to get some good names. And with this one headlined by Burt Reynolds, it was simply a "can't miss".
But before Wizard World I would have to meet up with Joresky at a dingy club outside of Baltimore where he wanted to meet Mike Tramp the lead singer of the band White Lion. A total name for me.
Luckily the place was very moochable so I got in no issue, but here is an overview at what a dingy place that was.
The show finally ended, and he was nice. I got a photo op.
Then it was off to Philly where we found a free spot not too far from Wizard World and slept for the evening.
Saturday morning, me and mooch some breakfast at a spot, which has become a yearly Wizard World Philly tradition for us.
First guest I met is Charles Martinet who voices Mario and many characters in all Nintendo games starting Mario 64 for the N64. Got him to sign a figure. This would be my only autograph for WW, although I kinda regret not getting a Burt Reynolds autograph especially when I saw some of the cool stuff people were getting signed like old playboys and laserdiscs.
I got table photo ops with Adrian Paul, Danny Trejo, and Frankie Muniz.
I got a free photo op with artist Phil Ortiz.
I also mooched photo ops with Keshia Knight Pulliam (which was an upgrade from my street shot) and Vincent Young.
I split two pro ops. Burt Reynolds with Joresky, and Katie Cassidy with markedout's Nightshift AKA Nate.
Ended WW with a Roger Corman photo op at the end of a panel, although I already had him.
After Wizard World it was off to NYC for a long and grueling week.
