SDCC Day 2 - Dollhouse season 2, BSG, Farscape and a mysterious bearded man...

Originally published on official Sci Fi Channel websites in the UK, France, Italy, Spain, Germany and Russia.

John Lennon once said that life is what happens while you're busy making other plans and today was undeniable proof of that - a mindblowingly cool day that I could never have predicted. The madness started while I was waiting in (yet another) queue and overheard a guy behind me talking about 'Human Target':

ME: Human Target? I saw that at preview night.
BEARDIE MAN: Oh yeah? What did you think of it?
ME: Really liked it. The sense of humour was really refreshing - can't wait to see how it develops.
BEARDIE MAN: I'm really glad! (reads my name badge and extends a hand) Hi, Amelia, I'm Lenn Wein.

Un. Be. LIEVABLE. For those who don't know, Lenn was the mighty brain behind not only 'Human Target' but also 'Swamp Thing' and a bunch of the new X-men characters to name but a few. Such a lovely bloke and he was more than happy to give me an interview while we waited. That man totally rocks the baseball cap/beard combo.

Oh look, more famous people!
While the Caprica/BSG panel was going on in the geek-infested Ballroom 20, Damian and I bumped into Battlestar Galactica's Richard Hatch (Apollo in the original and Tom Zarek in the new series) who seemed to enjoy talking to me so much he couldn't stop! This guy has multiple fingers in about a billion pies and chatted to us about his upcoming projects, the 'dating site for geeks' he's just launched, soulgeek.com, and his own personal quest for love (yes he's single, ladies!).

Gorgeous BSG actress Luciana Carro (Kat) told us about the difficulties of making the show, her favourite on-screen moment (which included a MASSIVE spoiler so I wont tell you!) and her Japanese fighting fish named Damian (which made the non-aquatic Damian very happy indeed).

And if all that wasn't enough (and trust me, by that stage I was well and truly buzzing) I met up with the star of 'Farscape' Virginia Hey (Zhann), who is so much more beautiful and down-to-earth in real life than you could imagine. She nattered with me for ages about life in England (she lived in the UK for years and misses it terribly), her favourite behind the scenes moment on the show (clue: it involves meat pies!) and how women over 40 are finally making their mark in Hollywood. We also swapped horror stories about having facial prosthetics casts done and she gave me a BIG exclusive about a new show that's currently being written for her where she'll play a mix between her characters on 'Farscape' and 'Mad Max'. I'm not allowed to tell you what it's called because Virginia said "the writers would kill me" but it sounds completely awesome so keep your mince pies peeled! See what I did there? Pies, meat... Ahem. Sorry.

The eternally glamorous Nichelle Nichols (Uhura in the original Star Trek) was even there, signing autographs for the fans, and I have to say if I 'grow up' to be even half as classy as her I'll be a very happy girl. Heheh, as IF I'm ever going to grow up. All the interviews will be up online very soon. Promise!


Joss Whedon plays with dolls - FACT.
Meanwhile the Dollhouse panel, headed by Joss Whedon and Eliza Dushku was joined midway through by two surprise guests: Dichen Lachmann (Sierra) and Fran Kranz (Topher). Dichen apparently loved the episodes where she played Topher's friend, and the one where she got to play with guns - a girl after my own heart! - and Fran, who I adore, seemed totally stunned by the turnout - aww, bless.

Before the panel Joss, who's clearly still gutted about the cancellation of 'Firefly' after only one season, showed 'Epitaph One', the 13th episode of Dollhouse made during production of the first series (for half the budget of a normal episode) just in case the show was axed. He also talked about his plans for the show's scope to become broader and more political in season 2, plus gave us some exciting teasers about what else we can expect, namely a recurring role for Buffy and Angel actor Alex Denisoff (Wesley Wyndham-Pryce), the return of Felicia Day, Zack Ward and Adair Tishler (who all starred in Epitaph One) and possibly a role for Summer Glau if they can manage it. My GOD this is going to be cool.

Joss described his shows as "marathon runners, not sprinters" and thanked the viewers for their campaigns to save the show, saying "it really took the hardcore fan base, the people who are here, to tip the scale." Power to the people.

Run, don't walk from... the scooter people!
Before heading home Damian and I were randomly grabbed by a reporter from Fox 5 News to be part of their report on new methods of journalism (part of which required me to use Damian's iphone, which I have NO idea how to operate and nearly deleted the entire inbox after a person on a scooter ran over my foot during a take!). Then we met up with Huw and his dad Keith Bowen. As well as siring Huw, Keith was also the 'Schrodinger's Girl' science advisor and is actually a real life scientist who works with lasers and stuff. My favourite bit of scientific advice he gave Huw in the lead-up to filming was "scientists don't wear labcoats! And they're messy". Also, I HAVE to mention the coolest costume I saw today - a sort of weird inflatable anti-grav rabbit/cat... thing. Which did headstands! What will they think of next?

But the biggest news for today? I didn't spend any money! Don't worry, I'll make up for it tomorrow... Oh yeah, and Huw met 'Torchwood' star John Barrowman and gave him a 'Schrödinger's Girl' flyer. Cheeky beggar!

Yes, I am totally jealous.

SDCC Day 1 - Avatar, Alice and Spooky Americans

Originally published on official Sci Fi Channel websites in the UK, France, Italy, Spain, Germany and Russia.

I started the day by grabbing some brain food in Café Diem. Nope, I haven't overloaded my brain with 'Eureka' and slipped into a delusional trance, there's actually a Café Diem here in San Diego (or at least there is for the duration of the 'Con thanks to the Sci Fi Channel's American cousin/sibling/alternate self Syfy). It's a Eureka themed restaurant complete with appropriately named dishes and I was served by two very lovely chaps, one of whom had the most fabulous facial hair I've ever seen.

Camp-i-con
There was a 'Twilight' panel in Hall H (the biggest room where all the most famous panels are held) today and didn't we know it! The queue for the place was immense - people had literally been camping out overnight to save their spots in line - and I reckon my only chance of getting into that room would have been if I'd found a Robert Pattinson lookalike and thrown him to the baying crowds. Damn you, sparkly vampire people, and damn all your silly tents as well (though I respect your dedication)!

Luckily, however, Comic-Con isn't really about the massive events - anything shown in those panels will inevitably be aired at some point soon so you'll see it anyway. No, what Comic-Con is great for is the stuff you wouldn't be able to see anywhere else - the independent stores full of weird stuff, the fans in incredible costumes and the smaller panels where the people involved really speak their minds (and are up for grabbing a drink with you afterwards). I know you lot, though - you want the big goss, right? Ok, here it be:

Silly glasses: the next generation
We've all heard the rumours but today a room full of lucky fans got to test out the fledgling 3D technology for themselves as specs were donned and all manner of awesome was seen. Apparently the technology's not quite there yet but from the audience's reactions it's definitely a step in the right direction. The biggest buzz obviously surrounded the screening of 25 minutes of footage from 'Avatar' which, until now, had been kept fairly tightly under wraps. Fox apparently invested over $200million in the movie and that, coupled with James Cameron's heavy involvement with this next generation of 3D technology meant that expectations were very high with some predicting that this revolutionary development will one day be likened to the introduction of the talkies. A tad over the top perhaps but everyone seems to agree that it was superb, unusual and definitely an experience not to be missed.

Depp in 3D (but just one D in Depp)
Among the other 3D delights were a teaser trailer for Tim Burton's upcoming 'Alice in Wonderland' featuring Burton favourites Johnny Depp (as the Mad Hatter) and Helena Bonham Carter (as the Red Queen) and Burton confessed that Stephen Fry's performance as the Cheshire Cat was so creepy that it "confirmed [his] hatred of cats." The big surprise, however, came when Johnny Depp made a surprise (though silent) appearance on stage - unsurprisingly, however, the oestrogen and noise levels in the room instantly went through the roof.

Keeping on the Depp theme I talked to a Capt. Sparrow lookalike today who resolutely stayed in character throughout the interview (I LOVE it when the dresser-uppers do that). Apparently his job is "pirate by day, rum drinker by night" and if he could have any superpower he'd want "the ability to make more rum." I'm sensing a theme here...

The best things in life are free (but my new Hulk t-shirt rocks too)
I spent a lot of today wandering around the Exhibition Hall interviewing my fellow fans, gawping at the incredible costumes and checking out the booths. I picked up a couple of very cool tops and jeans patches but stopped before I got too carried away which I thought was remarkably restrained of me! I could spend SO much money in this place. Everywhere you turn there's a new pretty shiny thing that would instantly double your geek points. Luckily enough the one thing Comic-Con definitely has in abundance (apart from queues) is free stuff and by the end of the day my bag was so stuffed with free t-shirts, flyers and postcards that my back was in danger of giving out!

I also dropped by the x-sanguine booth where I met the organiser Kevin for the first time after weeks of zombie-related email communication. He particularly liked the behind the scenes clip on my website where I'm zombied up with live maggots on my face (ok, maybe 'liked' is the wrong word but I definitely got respect) and he was kind enough to give me three VIP tickets to Saturday night's big zombie party in exchange for recording his outgoing phone message. I should get paid for all of my voiceover work like this!

Horror and arm-wrestling
In other news, we were treated to a preview of the new Star Wars game 'The Old Republic' which looked very interesting indeed (Matrix-style fight scenes + lightsabres = win!) and during a filmed interview I somehow managed to provoke an arm-wrestling match between myself and 'Schrödinger's Girl' director Huw who, bizarrely, claims that I let him win. I do not refute this, partly because I wouldn't dare defy him but mostly because lying is naughty and wrong.

Once we'd got the feeling back in our biceps we finished the day by checking out a fantastic documentary called 'Every Day is Halloween' which stars American horror hosts Count Gore De Vol and Karlos Borloff, who I'd met earlier in the day. Despite their fearsome appearances these guys are the nicest people you'll probably ever meet and have a passion for what they do that instantly made me want to run out and make more movies.

The documentary charts the rise and fall of the Count as a local TV station horror host, and how he rose again in typically vampyric fashion thanks to the wonders of the internets. Not having a tradition of horror movie hosts in the UK this was something of an eye-opener for me, but it managed to somehow make me nostalgic for an era I was barely alive during and the very natural style of irreverent humour is something very special indeed. I really wish that more studios would man up and commission 'risky' stuff like this but until that day comes it's indie all the way, baby!

Karlos seemed quite adamant that I'd make the perfect English Elvira-style horror host, sparking a little project which I'll tell you more about at a later date, but until then the Count is keen to show both 'Blood Actually' and Huw's vampire-themed 'Ministry of Secrets' short as part of his short film show.

After that there was just enough time to pop into the local Irish bar that's become our regular evening haunt, where the sound of another English accent led to us chatting to a lovely chap named James from Forbidden Planet in Southampton. Hearing another Brit did make me pine for home a little but it's difficult to be too sad when tomorrow I'm back at the 'Con sampling a million new flavours of wow. Look at all the loot I've gathered so far, and it's only day 1!

Until I get back home next week you guys are 8 hours ahead of me. Don't tell me what happens (I hate spoilers).

Comic-Con San Diego - Preview Night

Originally published on official Sci Fi Channel websites in the UK, France, Italy, Spain, Germany and Russia.

Huw, Damian and I grabbed a (two-storey) train from L.A. and a scenic three hour journey later we emerged, wide-eyed and blinking, in San Diego. There was absolutely no mistaking that this was the right town - banners advertising the 'Con line pretty much every street here as if a giant eye were running for election and the fans were out in force, some already proudly sporting their badges. After dumping our bags at the hotel we headed straight to the convention centre to register and pick up all the bumph we'd need to get us through the next few days. The lines to get in simply to register were ridiculously massive, even for press and professionals, and snaked out of the building and right down the street but luckily the Gods of Geek were smiling upon us and just as we were resigning ourselves to first day queue-related sunstroke we found a very nice lady who fast-tracked us straight into the building. Thanks, nice lady!

The weird thing about Comic-Con (ok, ONE of the weird things) is that you never know who you're going to bump into and this was immediately illustrated to us when we found ourselves standing in line behind Annalee Newitz and Charlie Jane Anders from io9. The site wrote a brief article about 'Schrödinger's Girl' (www.schrodingersgirl.com) when the first teaser trailer was released (just a couple of weeks after shooting finished) so it was great to chat to them and put faces to the names.

After a quick food stop I headed back to the Convention Centre to check out the three pilots that were screening. None of these had even been aired in the U.S. so the audience was understandably excited and, for the most part, they weren't disappointed. I won't say that all three were exactly to my taste but there was definitely something in there for everyone.


'HUMAN TARGET'
Based on the DC Comics title, this pilot episode follows a mysterious private detective who will stop at nothing to protect his client, despite being stuck on a 220mph train ride to splattery oblivion. That's dedication, huh? But why is he doing it?

The 'tortured soul' overtones to the brooding male character initially gave me the fear that this was going to be all doom and gloom, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that as well as some bone-crunchingly good fight scenes there was also a lot of comedy in there, the lion's share provided by the super tech-savvy Guerrero played by the fantastic Jackie Earle Haley (whose appearance on screen was greeted by deafening whoops and cheers from the audience). It'll definitely be interesting to see how this series matures when it starts airing in the US in January 2010 (and it made me thankful that my own train journey from L.A. had been so uneventful!).

Lesson learned: If someone dares to challenge your knowledge of foreign languages the best comeback is to hijack their next important business conversation. In Japanese. For about a minute. Point proven!


'V'

Well, it's just an average day in an average town in a... oh blimey, look - a massive alien spaceship! What are the chances?

This was the one I was absolutely dying to see and I'm hooked already. Cleverly drawing the audience in with multiple storylines and characters (including Dale, played by my flavour of the month, Alan Tudyk) we're immediately chucked into the classic 'this could totally happen to me' alien invasion storyline. The difference with these aliens? They're all, like, really, really hot.

Luckily not everyone is fooled by their 'we come in peace' purring and so the PR war begins. I'd like to think I wouldn't be fooled if super-sexy aliens landed, declared their peaceful intentions, then started recruiting humans to be their own personal PR officers so I guess I'd be joining the rebels (but that doesn't mean I can't like the aliens, now does it?). It's got a style to it vaguely reminiscent of BSG, and that's a winner in my book. Who knew recycling could be so much fun? Definitely, definitely one to watch

Lesson learned: If you're looking for a peaceful life and accidentally utter the words "I'm not that guy any more" this means that a) you probably still are that guy, and b) you will immediately be flung so far into a complex, life-changing storyline that you'll be seeing stars.


'VAMPIRE DIARIES'
Isn't being a teenager a drag? First your parents bite it (not in a blood-sucky way), then the cute boy at school you like turns out to be a vampire and can't even come into your room. Bummer.

Described in the blurb as 'an edgy and romantic new drama in which two vampire brothers - one good, one evil - are at war over one girl' this was clearly one for the younger members of the crowd. Granted, it wasn't exactly Twilight but the comparisons were clear. Seriously, lads, fighting over a girl at your age? Tsk tsk.

Far too teeny-bopperish and heavy on the schmaltz/angst combo to be my drop of red but then again I'm not exactly their target market. If you're still in your teens or are prone to developing unnatural crushes on sparkly vampires then you might like it.

Lesson learned: Hormones = vampiric powers.

After the pilot screenings I had all of about fifteen minutes to join up with Huw and Damian again to sneak a look at some of the stuff in the main exhibit hall and let me tell you, that place is HUGE. More than huge. I'm fairly sure even SPACE isn't that big. I'll attempt to post a photo soon which fully captures the brain-melting enormity but I'm not quite sure if a still image could contain such concentrated levels of awesome so you may just have to wait for my video diaries. While wandering around suffering from major sensory overload we met a few people in costumes and discovered the work of a Mr. J. S. Lewis - a terribly talented author and artist specializing in a sort of steampunk style - and I bought a 1940s style poster of a rocketman for my wall. It rocks so hard that I'm already having mild panic attacks about how to get it home safely.

I'm also not entirely sure how I'M going to make it home if the temptations I sampled today are anything to go by. There are literally thousands of booths in there stocking everything from antique comics to Lego to t-shirts and all of them want to give me their cool stuff in exchange for all of my monies.

I'm in serious trouble.

Geeking in L.A.

Originally published on official Sci Fi Channel websites in the UK, France, Italy, Spain, Germany and Russia.

Before heading to Comic-Con in San Diego I spent a few days in L.A. with director of Schrödinger's Girl Huw Bowen and fellow actor in the film Damian Hayes (www.damianhayes.com). Between the meetings, the huge amounts of food and attempting to adapt our pasty English selves to the heat we managed to squeeze in a bit of sightseeing and I spotted a few things along the way that I thought you might like.

First off, advertising is totally different in L.A. to how it is in England. If there's a film coming out soon you'll not only see posters and TV ads for it but also a mass of other innovative and unusual marketing strategies and I particularly liked the 'go back where you came from, alien scum' themed advertising that's been done for upcoming feature 'District 9' (which, from the looks of the trailer, is going to kick a serious amount of rear end). A lot of L.A.'s public benches are now officially for humans only and there are similar signs all over the place - busses, toilets... It's very cool. Humans rule. Whoo!

Of course there was the obligatory trip up to the Hollywood hills to see the famous sign and while we were up there we popped into the observatory for a good healthy dose of science (and some tesla coil-fuelled 'Tomb Raider: Legend' flashbacks). I also had to check out the legendary walk of fame which, despite sounding quite grand, is really just a normal street which just happens to have a bunch of stars embedded along it. To the side of this street, however, I found the footprints and signatures of R2D2, Anthony Daniels and Darth Vader, immortalized forever in concrete during the 1977 promotion for Star Wars. Nice.

Yoda appears to have relocated here from Dagobah and I must admit I'm sorely tempted to do the same. What a fantastic town. This is just the warm-up for this trip, though - next stop San Diego for Comic-Con!

Eeep, squeee and other sounds of barely restrained excitement,

Amelia to report from Comic-Con International for the Sci Fi Channel

Originally published on official Sci Fi Channel websites in the UK, France, Italy, Spain, Germany and Russia.

Well hello, sci-fi-ers!

Er... hi. Who are you?
I'm Amelia. Hullo. Although this is my first blog for this site chances are you already know me (or my voice, anyway) as I'm a continuity announcer on the Sci Fi Channel.

So why have you escaped the glowing confinement of my screen to talk to me on here?
Well, when I'm not on the tellybox informing you all about the delights of Dollhouse, Heroes et al. I'm also an actress and one of the feature films I appeared in last year is screening at this year's Comic-Con in San Diego. Because of this I've been asked to go along to speak on the panel and will be wandering around open-mouthed and gaping at the geeky wonderousness for the full event, including the exclusive preview night (where I'll get to see sneaky screenings of new shows which haven't even aired in the US yet).

I'm sure tonnes of people would love to to go but can't so I'm going to be letting you fine chaps and chapesses in on the action by doing a daily blog for scifi.co.uk, taking pictures AND filming a video diary.

I'm Comic-Con-fused. What on earth are you drivelling about?
Comic-Con is like Lourdes for the terminally geeky, where fans of all things genre turn up in their droves every year to worship at the altar of awesome. It's the biggest such convention in the world (celebrating its 40th anniversary this year) and many companies use it to break all kinds of exciting news to the masses, show never-before-seen, brand spanking new episodes and films, and release limited run collector editions of all kinds of cool stuff that can only be obtained at the 'Con.

Speakers for this year include Joss Whedon and Eliza Dushku (for Dollhouse), David Tennant, John Barrowman and Russell T Davies (for Dr. Who/Torchwood) and Tim Kring plus assorted cast members (for Heroes) to name but a few! For full details of what's going to be shown take a look at the official Comic-Con website (kudos to anyone who reads the entire list without getting a joy-induced migraine).

So... if there's anything you'd like me to check out while I'm there, from comics to TV shows and anything in between, then just give me a shout and I'll do my best to cover it. Just post a comment under this blog or hit me up on Twitter. Easy peasy.

What's this film malarkey all about, then?
The film I'll be on the panel for is an independent British sci-fi feature called 'Schrödinger's Girl' which was shot early last year. Read that again: British. Science fiction. Feature. Yes, it IS possible. It's also deeply awesome.

I'm intrigued. Entice me.
Alright then, I will! Do you like inter-dimensional travel? Evil parallel selves? Worlds colliding? Geeky in-jokes? How about zombie brain slaves and lashings of blood? This film has it all.

It's a parallel universe flick exploring alternate histories via three different versions of the UK: the first is much as ours is, the second's a technologically advanced utopia of slick, apple-esque gorgeousness, and the third, the People's Republic of Great Britain, is a dark and grimy Commie dictatorship. Chuck in an illegal supercomputer, a vial of neural accelerant and some ill-advised quantum tunnelling experiments and you have a chase through realities as one hapless scientist attempts to undo the damage she's caused and return the world to normal before her alternate selves can interfere.

I ended up playing more roles than any other actor in the film - a total of five characters - as well as providing the voice of the mysterious Q computer (a sort of Brit-chick version of GLaDos), and some of my parts were rather bizarre to say the least (being baldcapped and chained to a wall for a day of filming was a particularly memorable experience!).

'Schrödinger's Girl' will be closing the film festival portion of Comic-Con at 3:40pm on Sunday the 26th of July and I'll post more details about where you can next see it in the UK when the new trailer goes up online.

Sounds like fun. Who's GLaDOS?
Seriously? Oh my god... Play 'Portal'. NOW.

So yeah, apart from battling jetlag and spending a couple of days in LA that's what I'll be doing. All very, very cool and more than a little exciting. Bulb changed. Brown alert engaged. Be cool, Tyler, just be cool. And remember to breathe.

Looking forward to hearing all your thoughts and suggestions for what you'd like me to cover. Take care and play nice,

Milly

Dazed and Comic-Con Fused.


There's been a veritably flurry of good news for the soon-to-be-renamed 'Schrödinger's Girl' of late - first it signed to US sales agent Multivisionnaire, and now I can proudly announce that it will be screening at this year's Comic-Con in San Diego! Plus, I've been asked to go along and speak at the convention after the film! I'll also be in Los Angeles for a few days prior to the Con, exploring and meeting people along with director Huw Bowen and fellow star of SG Damian Hayes. This is literally the most excited I've been since I got a Bumblebee action figure for my 6th birthday. Squeee!

For those who don't share my nerd-esque tendencies and have no idea what Comic-Con is, think of it as Lourdes for the terminally geeky, where fans of all things genre turn up in their droves every year to worship at the altar of awesome. It's the biggest such convention in the world (celebrating its 40th anniversary this year) and I've been wanting to attend for as long as I can remember so the mere idea that a film I appear in will be there to entertain fellow fans is enough to make my head spin. Very cool news indeed! Aside from wandering around the convention for five days soaking up the atmosphere like some kind of wide-eyed sponge before taking to the podium/desk/darkened corner with Bowen et al. to chat to fans about the film, I've also got a few interviews lined up which I'm very much looking forward to - well, it just wouldn't do for me to have an actual HOLIDAY, now would it? Heheh, as IF talking about comics and sci-fi is work. God, I love my job.

As you might have gathered I'm proudly out of the closet as a sci-fi lover so obviously I adored being part of 'Schrödinger's Girl', but for me the best thing was that the parallel worlds aspect allowed every character to appear in a different guise in each world. In fact I ended up playing more roles than any other actor in the film - a total of five characters - as well as providing the voice of the mysterious Q computer, and some of my parts were rather bizarre to say the least (being baldcapped and chained to a wall for a day of filming was a particularly memorable experience!).

For those of you who haven't heard about the film yet, let me tell you a little summat about it to whet your appetites: It's a parallel universe sci-fi feature film exploring alternate histories via three different versions of the UK: the first is much as ours is, the second is a technologically advanced utopia of slick, apple-esque gorgeousness, and the third, the People's Republic of Great Britain, is a dark and grimy Commie dictatorship. Chuck in an illegal supercomputer, a vial of neural accelerant and some ill-advised quantum tunnelling experiments and you have a chase through realities as one hapless scientist attempts to undo the damage she's caused and return the world to normal before her alternate selves can interfere.

So far SG has had screenings in locations as diverse as Cannes and Swansea (where the SG team, pictured above, turned up at the International Film Festival) and I think this diversity is a nice little geographical echo of just how broad the appeal of this film is. Yes, it's a sci-fi film (and I fully understand how that label alone can be enough to put some people off) but rest assured it's not just one for the geek patrol. I was very pleasantly surprised by how accessible the technological side of the script was to the average 'normie' viewer, allowing the audience to make as much or as little of that side of things as they chose to by letting the action carry the main weight of the plot, while simultaneously refusing to dumb down and including some great geeky in-jokes - no mean feat! There's also some fantastic subtle comedy in there, mainly in the form of wry observations from 'space cops' doubleact Slip and Hand, and the special effects have already been soundly praised by critics.

The guys at Quiet Earth liked it (and they're people who know a thing or two about genre films! Read the review here) and I reckon you will too so I'll keep you updated about where and when you can next see it. If you're lucky enough to have Comic-Con tickets then do check it out - it's closing the festival on Sunday 26th at 3.40pm - and if you see me wandering about with my mouth hanging open feel free to say hi, or offer me a paper bag to breathe into.

See you in SD!
