Philadelphia Comic Con Day 1

The MLD Team spent the afternoon at the opening day of the 2010 Philadelphia Comic Con. The day mainly featured vendors and entertainment personalities vying for fan attention, and I don’t even know if there was a single panel held on the site. Our new Twitter feed was a big part of the action so come follow along tomorrow and Sunday.

A lot of costumed characters were running around including rival groups of “Jedi” from Pennsylvania and New York. Hopefully, things will remain civil. We even had some great lunchtime entertainment at the Reading Terminal Market from a guy playing video game themes on the piano. The highlight of day one was easily taking a spin with KevinMLD in the George Barris Batmobile.

The evening entertainment was provided by the PhilyZombieCrawl.com in the form of a zombie beach party at The Trocadero. The official opening night after party featured zombie face painting and music from Bauhaus, The Misfits and other death obsessed moaners. Just two blocks away from the Convention Center, The Troc will also host Kaiju Big Battel as part of the weekend activities tomorrow night.

Look for more detailed posts with more pictures over the next few days. Also check out our show preview if you haven’t yet. In the meantime, do your best Isaac!
