Well, that was some weekend! We gave away 2 HUGE boxes of comics for free, cases of Wizard magazines, also for free, and we raffled off toys every hour!

Jasmine Mai stopped by the table for her free issue.

Here’s the lucky winner of an Eric Draven figure!

V stopped by to make sure we’d remember remember the 5th of November.

Even though this guy is on the verge of death, he still made sure to stop by and pick up his free copy!

And here’s Eddie C, who won the grand prize at the end of the day! Congrats!

And then The… Hulk maybe? Stopped by. It is supposed to be The Hulk, right? He looks bigger on TV.
Later on I ran into Luciana Carro of Battlestar Galactica. She’s one of our featured guests at Wizard World Philly and Chicago Comic Con this year!
I introduced myself, but when I moved in to give her a “Welcome to Wizard World” hug…

She popped me in the mouth.
Note to self, watch out for Luciana’s right hook…
Well, that’s it for now! Be sure to check in here weekly as I’ll try and find my way to other cons to give stuff away, meet and greet, and get slapped around by other famous people!

First off, let me introduce myself. My name is Spat, and I’m the new Convention Coordinator for Wizard World! I’ll be writing in to this blog quite a bit, I’m sure!
So, what does a Convention Coordinator do? A lot of things. One of the things I’ll be doing is making sure that Wizard World has a presence at other conventions around the Country.
In fact, that’s my first announcement!
This weekend, April 17-19, Wizard World is going to be set up at Chiller Theatre (http://www.chillertheatre.com/) in New Jersey and will be giving away all sorts of goodies! Saturday we’ll be having an hourly Raffle for some toys, as well as a grand prize raffle at the end of the day for a 24″ tall Rocker Biker Girl Statue from Electric Tiki!

And all you have to do to win is sign up at the table, and be there when we pick the name at the end of the day! It’s that easy!
I plan to try and make these kinds of Convention visits and promotions a regular thing (so long as Wizard want to keep sending me to conventions), so keep checking back here for a list of upcoming dates of shows that Wizard will be attending!
