A brief roundup from our trip down to Comic Con 2013 --
It was my best intention to attend several panels and at least one "Hall H" event, however I succeeded in only going to parties and meetings. Highlight of the weekend was doing "the sprinkler" on the dance floor with Joss Whedon and taking a photo of my friends with the King of the Con, Mr. Nathan Fillion himself. Seeing such favorites as Matt Groening and Bryan Cranston was a welcome surprise. Speaking of Bryan Cranston, how awesome is this?
