Again, I'm pressed for time so I'm just going to drop a quick note here to let you all know that I'll be wandering around Wizard World Chicago next week Saturday. So stop me and say "hi" if you happen across me among the throngs of attendees. Here's a few of the panels I'm somewhat likely to attend to help you track me down...12-1 p.m.
NAKED BUT CLOTHED: THE SUPERHERO COSTUME
The Wizard School Room: 8
Artist and costume designer Adi Granov (“Iron Man”) joins Dr. Peter Coogan (Institute for Comics Studies) and Dr. Stanford Carpenter (School of the Art Institute of Chicago) for a wide ranging look at the superhero costume. A rare copy of “Superhero: The Secret Origin of the Genre” will be given away!
2-3 p.m.
THE UNVEILING OF OGENO.COM
The Jim Mooney Room: 4
Ever wondered what Entertainment Networking would be like? Have you ever thought about what it would be like to have all your bookmarked sites in one place? If you’ve ever thought about this, your dreams are about to come true!
4-5 p.m.
COMIC BOOK RESTORATION AND HOW TO DETECT IT
The Wizard School Room: 8
Most comic collectors are aware of the paper restoration controversy, but very few know exactly what it is or how to spot it. Long time collector Richard Evans and noted paper restorer Matt Nelson present guides to understanding restoration and how to detect restored comics.
6-7 p.m.
MAKE YOUR OWN WIKI
The Wizard School Room: 8
Wikipedia is just the start! Wiki founders from Wikia—home of Wookieepedia, Memory Alpha and Muppet Wiki—demonstrate how to edit pages, build a community of contributors and protect your wiki from vandals.
