    Two Packs of Heroclix (Which included among others: Supergirl, Sun Boy, Brainiac Five, Darkseid, Lex Luthor, Flashpoint Superman, teh Human Target, Silver Banshee, and Libra).
    Apocalypse Giant Heroclix figure.
    A little Pokemon toy.
    Ultimate Spider-Man Volume One
    Two Geoff Isherwood prints (Jean Grey and Batman) Both signed.
    Astonishing X-men #39 signed by Nick Bradshaw (He was really pissed off about something).
    Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City.

    I also met the creators of "Kill Shakespeare" I really wanted to buy a copy from them but after buying the Isherwood prints I could not afford to and eat this week.

    Actually I don't even know why I'm complaining about money, some scholarship money I won is being put into my account on monday. I could in theory spend a lot more than I did and still come out ahead. Normally I'd feel guilty spending Scholarship money on random stuff but my folks are actually encouraging me to spend it on random crap. Heck, they want me to go to the con again tomorrow if I want to... Damn my parents and their support of my hobbies.

    I went to Dragoncon this year and didn't get any swag.
    That was the most disappoint part of the con.
    If they had a freebe table I couldn't find it, of course I was too busy seeing and meeting icons.

    Well I had to pay for all of that. There was very little in freebies.

    Geoff Isherwood and Nick Bradshaw are hardly Icons but I met and talked to them. So that was cool. It was a moderate sized con with a decent mixture of guests.

    Oh...when I think of swag I think of freebe's.
    I went to the local "Light up" festival last night got a lot of swag as well as my kids.
    Got a free Ice Scrapper, made my day, because my sons broke mine just Friday.
    And I was thinkin' "Got to find a ice scrapper" Viola...one appeared.
    All Right! Life is good.

    Perhaps, cats usually do have some ulterior motive.

    More than a few, this time of th month kills me. I got Supergirl, Batman, DCU Presents, Nightwing, Ultimate X-men and the new Hellboy hardcover.

    I haven't read X-men or DCU Presents but Batman, SuperGirl and Hellboy were great and Nightwing was okay. I was going to drop it after the last issue as it still hadn't hooked me but when I was flipping through it today it looked interesting so I gave it a stay of execution. The villain is still kind of generic, but the writer really has Dick's voice down pat, almost as well as Snyder and Morrison.
