TeamSD: Adventures of Lawyer Girl and Demian Man

SDCC - Tron Banners

Whew! What a tiring weekend. We just got back from my first trip to the mecca of Comic Conventions (San Diego Comic Con) and Jaci’s first trip to San Diego evar. I have to say, the trip was fun, exciting, hectic, crazy, and I’d do it all over again (although I can’t say the same thing for Jaci).

We were greeted in San Diego where every street sign was lined with a Tron poster and buildings had epic banners of epicness.

There were celebrity sitings galore as the 1st night we were there we saw Charisma Carpenter outside our hotel, followed by eating at the same restauraunt as LL Cool J, Lou Feringo, and Danny Devito. We then walked by the entire cast of V, saw the King of Vampires(Mississippi?) from True Blood, Peter Jackson, among others.

The trip was long an tiring but without further delay here are some of our pictures!

We got up bright and early on Friday to get in line for the convention and on the way Jaci stubbed her toe (not a good start to the day) and remained grouchy for the majority of that morning. Then again, who wouldn’t be grouchy when you had to wait in the line pictures below.

In line at SDCC

Little did we know(since this was our first time) was that Friday is actually a relatively mellow day and it would only continue to get crazier and crazier.

In the convention:

Random celebrity sitings:

New cool art:

Jaci and I refer to this one as the “Taylor Swift as Supergirl” piece. This is probably one of the favorite pieces in my collection now. Also Scott drew this on a giant board, I didn’t full measure it but I think its 18×22 or something.

Scott Clark - Supergirl

Omar hasn’t done a Supegirl before and he was concerned with how it turned out, but I was blown away. This was such an incredibly cute and awesome Supergirl!

Omar Dogan - Supergirl

I have another Supergirl from Philip but once I saw him working with ink wash I knew I needed to have another one! Well here it is:

Philip Tan - Supergirl

I’ve been a huge fan of Stephane’s for a long time but he’s never come up to the Nor Cal shows. Once I found out he was going to be at SDCC I knew I had to grab a piece and I lucked out!

Stephane Roux - Supergirl

The Udon team continues to blow me away with their art style. This is another take on Supergirl by Eric Vedder!

Eric Vedder - Supergirl

I have quite a few more pieces that I haven’t shown here, you can check them all out in my personal collection at http://demianlee.com/photos

So I realized i never posted any info on our trip to WonderCon so I figured I should post up some pictures, especially with our SuperCon trip coming up this weekend. Also, since I’m using the G1 now for my cell phone and it’s pretty well integrated with Picasa, I think i’ll give that a shot to see how it’s picture interface is.

Overall WonderCon was pretty cool. We only got 4 pieces but they were all really awesome. The first is Supergirl by a Wildstorm Artist Eddie Nunez. The second is another Supergirl by Aspen artist Joe Benitez. The third piece, and probably one of Jaci and my favorites is an awesome Rogue by Aspen Artist Micah Gunnel. The way this guy draws is absolutely fantastic. The 4th is a quick sketch Micah did for me in the sketchbook of Supergirl (pictures below).

We skipped out on Saturday (as per the usual) to avoid the really hectic crowds, so on Sunday we checked out the Chuck panel which was pretty interesting. It was a lot more packed than we thought it would be (although maybe not enough given all the save chuck ruckus that’s been going on. Anyhoo, hopefully I’ll get some really awesome goodies from SuperCon this weekend!
