Panels:
Friday there is a Venture Bros. Panel at 8PM which Michael Sinterniklaas (2k3 Leonardo) may or may not be at. He attends every year but is usually unlisted.

Corey Feldman (Voice of Donatello in movies 1 and 3) is appearing Saturday morning at 10:45 in a panel previewing the third installment in the "Lost Boys" film series.

Tom Wayland (Jammerhead), Rachael Lillis (Tomo Ame) & Veronica Taylor (April O'neil) may all potentially be at the "Voice Actors: East Meets West" panel on Saturday from 12:45PM to 1:45PM. Though each of their attendance has been confirmed, whether or not they will be at this panel has not.

Jim Martin & Noel Macneal (Puppeteers from the third TMNT live-action film) are featured in a panel on Sunday the 11th from 2:45PM to 3:45PM called "Children's TV Legends".

Veronica Taylor (April O'neil 2K3) will be part of a panel that same Sunday called "Voice & Art- Veronica Taylor & Misako Rocks!" from 3PM to 4PM.
NOTE: Being that Veronicas panel overlaps that of the puppeteers, Michele Ivey (AKA IveyAngelo) has suggested fans check out the "East Meets West" panel on Saturday as to perhaps catch her there rather then having to choose between the two.

Drome members attending:

Powder
Raph
Agilarept
IveyAngelo
Jephael
pl212
Archon Turtle
BoggleKng
Peter Palmer

Let me know if you're going & I'll add your name to the list.

*Thanks to Michele for some of this information*

I am will be there on Sunday with the fam.. can't wait.. and just an update, that Kevin won't be attending this year due to schedule conflicts, according to Michele.

Hence his name not being on the list.

I'll add you to attending members though.

Powder, you missed 2 more TMNT involved artists :
1.Andie Tong: Wizard TMNT strip
2.Emilio J. Lopez : 4kids TMNT

il be there three days and prob running on no sleep lol. I'll check with Olli at work, he did the voice for fugitoid, i remember him telling me he wouldn't show up for the con as a fan. il check.

Will these two both be in Artist Alley?

Wow :o ...I ´ll wish to be there!!! sigh! ...
Please, take a big bunch of pics and some good news for all members that cant be there!!!... ;)

For those who are interested, Veronica Taylor will be signing in Autograph Alley..

Saturday – 11:00 – 12:00 – Table 5
Sunday – 12:00 – 1:00 – Table 5

I'll be there all 3 days, mostly buzzing around in the artist alley area. It's sad to hear Kevin won't be there. We was my top reason for going. I still plan on having a good time, though.


*edit* Does anyone know if the Scott Williams voice actor is the same Scott Williams known for Inking Jim Lee's pencil work?

Yup, thats where I got their names from

Heres another :
- Peter David : TMNT Dreamwave

What Wizard TMNT strip?

Larry Hama (of G.I. Joe fame) is also going to be there. He wrote an episode of Fast Forward.

A small Turtle doc crew of me and an assistant will be there on Saturday in the morning only. If all goes well we will also be grabbing another great and rare interview in town the day before.

Wow, you guys are on a roll !:tgrin:

We are hanging out damnit.

Awesome, thanks for the info! I never heard of this rare comic (500 Limited), so I found it for 20 bucks just now, including shipping.

Where at?!

No problem, thats a good price

Ebay has one $50 or best offer, free shipping

Actually HERE: http://www.digitalwebbing.com/store/dwp.html

Just scroll down to DWP TMNT Issue #24! :)

Thanks, just made my order; $20.49 total! :D Digital Webbing had been out the few times I had checked on it. Glad they have some more in stock.

just ordered my copy also - thanks alot for that info, i was actually considering paying that ridiculous price on eBay - now i don't have too.

Any updates from Dooney ?
Hope he brings a few prints

Awesome guys! Glad I could help get it at a better price! :D

The Doonster should be there, but he hasn't update his blog yet. he is usually pretty good about that

He updates his deviantart page more and has been talking about it there.

Thanks, VM, I didn't check that one yet.. he has too many blogs :-P He does have NYCC $10 print up there though..

Does anyone know what are Dooney's prices ? just so im prepared lol

Prints are always 10 bucks unless otherwise noted (I got a one of a kind from him for 25$), but his original pieces all vary in price. I paid $60 for an 8X11 (rough measurement) watercolored piece of Mike, but there were smaller pieces ranging from $20-$50 and the most expensive was $75 if my memory serves.

I believe my Leo watercolor was about $75.

Leaving for NY at 5:15am tomorrow morning. FML.

See you crazy cats and kittens there!

My plane leaves at 11:30. See ya Friday buddy!

If anyone wants to pop up & say hi, you can see my facebook link in my sig.
Feel free to add me or just peep my picture as to recognize me at the convention. Tallyho!

Depending on how cold it is in the convention center, I'll probably be wearing one of my signature sleeveless convention shirts (since most people recognize me from afar by the turtle tats) or my green hoodie with the GoGreenMachine.org logo on the back.

Is there allot of Ninja Turtles stuff on comic con ?

ok kool, thanks for the info.

Layed over in Dallas. What's up Texas?

Have fun guys! Let us know what you got!! ;)

we need to meet up for some pizza! Il be there at table 550 wearing my custom turtle backpack lol. on sat I was thinking of wearing my mikey mask lol. why the hell not right? lol

I'm going to the con on Saturday. I hope to see Dooney and Larsen (speaking of, I can't find any info on Larsen attending the con on the NYCC official site. Are you guys sure he's going to attend.)
