MucaMeow here to share my adventure at Comic-Con this year (A bit late). We knew it would be tough to fit everything in one day, but we were determined. We woke up early Thursday and made our way to the San Diego convention center.

We were accompanied by many attendees from the shuttle to the convention center’s main entrance. The first thing to do was scope out the exhibit hall. The exhibit hall was roomier, but we didn’t have a lot of time to look around – we had panels to attend.

Our first panel was Caprica, Battlestar, and Beyond. …

I always thought Comic Con attendees would get violent over limited edition exclusives before any other scheduled events but I was wrong.  USA Today reported that two guys in their mid twenties got into a fight in Hall H as Unversal was presenting Jon Favreau’s(director of Iron Man movies) Cowboy & Aliens.  As the two guy were fighting, one got stabbed in the eye with a pen.  The victim was taken to a hospital while the stabber got restrained and arrested by the cops.   I don’t know the details of the incident but I’m predicting they probably got into a fight …

Capcom unveiled a major title today: Street Fighter Vs. Tekken.   The 3d world of Tekken will be ported to the 2d universe of Street Fighter.  Gameplay is from shoryuken.com:

Even though the players can be “tagged” similar to other Capcom Versus titles, the gameplay doesn’t seem as exaggerated as previous titles.  Namco is also producing their own Versus game called “Tekken vs. Street Fighter” and it won’t have projectiles like the fireballs or sonic booms.  It should be interesting seeing the Capcom characters without most of their powers! The games will be available for 360 and PS3…

It seems like the Suicide Girls are not allowed at this year’s Comic Con.  The drama started when a Comic Con board member saw a Suicide Girl sell a DVD copy to a minor at WonderCon (also run by the same people who organize Comic Con).  For those of you that don’t know much about Suicide Girls, they’re a web community consisting of tattoo’d girls photographed in a series of photoshoots.  Majority of the pictures are nude but I see them as artsy more than exploitation shots like Penthouse.

 

Suicide Girls’ statement to the accusation  is that they never sold a …

The ever popular San Diego Comic Convention is just around the corner and it’s featuring the best of the best exclusives.

So, here’s one of the best. It’s Orko from the Masters of the Universe Classic’s collection. Orko features color-changing plastic that makes him go from translucent red to clear. He comes with a stand and his magic wand, a spell book–and this odd accessory laying at the bottom of the package…Oh damn! It’s Prince Adam! Well, that doesn’t make sense… Orko is the star of the show and Prince Adam is an added bonus? Adam features his maroon sword and …
