The Buffalo ComicCon was held last weekend in gorgeous Buffalo “if you lived here you’d be planning your move west by now” New York. I was there, as was my my one-of-a-kind Jetson’s bowling shirt that was the talk of the show, and which attended several after parties without me. Sigh… at least there were plenty of costumed weirdos for me to forge lifelong friendships with!
BUFFALO! The name of New York’s greatest city evokes a smelly, fur-covered beast, and this past weekend you could have stood shoulder to shoulder with dozens of comic fans who met that exact description at the glorious Buffalo Comicon! Yes, furries, Furiosas and fur-REEKS of all kinds stopped taking their meds and gathered at the Buffalo-Niagara Convention Center to tell the world that they will not be silent! (And also that, sorry, they had spent all their money but did I have a business card they could take?)
Thanks muchly to Nigel Carrington, Howard Cadmus and my other buds who made the convention great, and especially comic pimp Emil Novak, who put the show together. I’d also like to thank Square, the credit card service, for creating a swipe-device that can accept chicken wings as payments.
I’d like to thank all the geeks, freaks and Greeks who came to see me at the Buffalo Comicon this past Sunday. My sales were great, my patter was snappy and my iPad successfully phished the Social Security numbers of everyone who paid with a credit card. That’s what I call a helluva show!
As usual, however, I managed to make my fair share of enemies. I don’t know how I keep getting on these peoples’ bad sides. I guess when you ask a cosplayer “So, does that anti-gay wedding cake law in Indiana apply to you queermos too?”, you may rub a nerve!

“Wait, let me guess: Michaelangelo. No? Lemonjello? Portabello? (Look, I don’t know which one of you mutant turnips fights with hotdogs, but either way your movie sucked.”) |
And that’s a wrap (mmm… I could go for a wrap right now!). Hey, be sure to visit Sweet Jenny’s/1811 Comics, the best candy shop/comic store ever to give me more free chocolate dipped pretzels than I could ever eat! I actually shared some!Â
