Hyatt Space Available!!!

 I'm posting this for a friend.

He has room for two at the Hyatt. I think check-in is on Thurs and check-out is on Monday. Male or female is fine. :)

Turns out my boyfriend and I had two room bookings and we need to give this one up. Alas, I'd feel like a douche to put people in tough spots so I'm passing this on to whoever wants it (obviously you'd have to pay for it).

If interested, please let me know here or email me at msmarvelgirl(at)gmail(dot)com so I can give you more details and put you in touch with my friend.

Never read Cry for Blood. Was that Rucka? Took awhile for me to get into his stuff. But I LOVED his recent Question backup in Detective with Cully Hamner (who is at DragonCon every year). The Hutress & Montoya made an awesome team. Sorry to see it end. Loved her also dating Vic Sage in the animated series (from your avatar above). Never gotten into Birds of Prey. Not enough Huntress for me. Love the Jim Lee version & Paul Gulacy's. He drew her in a couple Batman mini-series. Gorgeous art. Had him sign that Batman cover for me with her on. I'm always up for talking comics, and I love the Huntress. I'll be the one going through Artist Alley wheeling a big box of comics to get signed since I don't get a room there or have a car. Going to be tough this year with so many comic guests.

My local comic shop has had a big sale on mini-busts for a few months now. I keep my eye on the Huntress one. Got the Wonder Woman one a few months back. Half off mini-busts.

Oh, Wizard Atlanta is new. It is in it's first year. So far it looks underwhelming since all their comic guests were past DragonCon guests.

Oh, I found it.

Here is the Pual Gulacy cover he signed for me.

I ran into him years ago late at night at DragonCon, and he talked to me one on one for about an hour!!

Also love his cover with Catwoman & Batman:

Have a print of that one signed from Jimmy Palmiotti who inked it. (He's coming this year too!)

Gail Simone isn't on the guest list for DragonCon right. Though I'd love for her to come. Though I'm happy with Neal Adams (my favorite artist ever), Paul Smith, Tim Sale, Kelley Jones & so many more.

There will be a lot of great Batman artists there though.

Neal Adams (in my opinion is the best Batman artist ever)
- 70's Batman comics & the new Batman Odyssey series

Kelley Jones
- 90's Batman during the Bane storyline & Batman/Dracula Red Rain

Tim Sale
- Long Halloween & Dark Victory (some of the best Batman comics ever)

Darwyn Cooke
- Batman Ego, Catwoman Selina's Big Score & main Catwoman series, he also created her modern look.

Mike Mignola
- Not only did he create Hellboy, but he did a lot of incredible Batman covers, especially the Batgirl Special & the ones where Jason Todd dies.

George Perez
- 1st appearance of Nightwing in Teen Titans, also 1st Tim Drake

As for Marvel artists:
Olivier Coipel
- House of M, Thor, & Siege

DragonCon is going to be awesome!!
