Comic Con 2014




  The above photo shows the many different ways people came to Comic Con 2014. Some came dressed up as their favorite or made up characters, while others wanted to show themselves off. There were authors signing for free, there were celebrities who charged for an autograph, and then there were others who just wanted to show themselves off as you will see in the photos below.
  I met a comic artist William Ramos who lives in the Bronx, and owns a comic company called Section Eight Comics. We talked for a while about the name of his company, and where he is located. I asked if he can live being a very small artist owner in the world of comics, and he (like many of the others) said that they are doing it as a hobby part time. William has hopes of going big, but that is in his future - when he does not know. 
  You will see in one of the photos a pretty young girl named Amanda Rivera. Amanda is special because just like William Ramos Amanda is also from the Bronx. Amanda lives in Wakefield, and told me that she can not wait to see her photo in the Bronx Nerws.  
  Enough written here as the photos will speak for themselves.


This is Amanda Rivera from the Wakefield area of the Bronx.

This is William Ramos the artist and owner of Section Eight Comics from the Bronx.














Here is The FAT Guy of Fat Guy Comics.

Here two artist from Archie Comics are signing their work, FREE.














Here WWE star announcer and former champion wrestler John "Bradshaw" Layfield signs autographs and takes photos with you for a fee. Other former wrestlers Ted "Billion Dollar Man' Dibiase and "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan were also signing and taking photos for a fee. 
  I was able to talk to JBL who said that he would love to get back in the ring at least once a year, but can not due to an injury that would only get worse if he wrestled. JBL does the blow by blow analysis on WWE's Monday night Raw show, and said he loves doing it, but wishes he had better commentators then he currently has. 


As you can see there was almost anything to buy at Comic Con, including Horns, Magic Wands, and Fairy Dust.














The character Halo was roaming in front of its booth.

One of the many costumed attendees.















Two more of the many costumed attendees.













 

Using the old adage 'sex sells' on the left is a girl in a bikini walking around with a poster for one booth. On the right the words other than those that started with the letter P are much smaller as you see on the t-shirt of the girl with the Power.









Here you see some new clothing for the Geeky Girl.


















These three could just pop up on one of the many cable or other channels.


















And then there were those who got tired out by all the excitement.
