|HEY! Did you (or your friend) see me at #C2E2 and fall in love with this Clint Eastwood / Tattoos painting? I was out of prints so I gave you a code to get free shipping? Well, I fixed it so that code should work now. Tag that guy if you know him!

My nieces attended #C2E2 last weekend and bought me this awesome Jeph Loeb autographed comic!
Thank you, Amanda and Megan!

⛈️ When it rains, it pours! Between tracking severe weather all night and more coming Thursday, I’m officially beat. Sadly, I have to cancel tomorrow’s stream to catch up on sleep and stay healthy. I’ll be back soon with wild #C2E2 stories! Love you all! 💙 #Twitch #Skywarn #YouTube

C2E2 2026 Photos, Part 2 of 2: Jessica Jones, The West Wing, and a Cavalcade of Comics

Previously on Midlife Crisis Crossover: It’s that time again! This weekend my wife Anne and I attended the latest edition of the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Exposition (“C2E2″), a three-day extravaganza of comic books, actors, creators, toys, props, publishers, freebies, plush dolls, variant covers, anime we don’t recognize, and walking and walking and walking and walking. We missed the inaugural 2010 gala and presciently skipped the February 2020 pre-shutdown soiree, but more often than not, whenever they send out the call to convene, we’re happy to answer... ...although we dragged our feet on committing to this year's edition as we waited for them to invite actors that we hadn't already met and who've performed in shows and/or movies we really enjoyed. Less than a month before showtime, we were finally feeling it and bought tickets. But we planned for a less epic adventure than usual. It was still fun! We have fewer anecdotes than usual, though. On the bright side, that means less typing for me and a shorter read for You, The Viewers At Home! (Not counting the next several paragraphs.) […]

C2E2 2026 Photos, Part 1 of 2: Cosplay!

It's that time again! This weekend my wife Anne and I attended the latest edition of the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Exposition (“C2E2″), a three-day extravaganza of comic books, actors, creators, toys, props, publishers, freebies, plush dolls, variant covers, anime we don’t recognize, and walking and walking and walking and walking. We missed the inaugural 2010 gala and presciently skipped the February 2020 pre-shutdown soiree, but more often than not, whenever they send out the call to convene, we’re happy to answer. While we recuperate and wait for our feet to forgive us for their punishment, please enjoy this collection of cosplayers who brightened our day around the show floor. The jazz-hands photo ops and other details will be shared in the other chapter because everyone loves costumes. We regret we can only represent a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the total cosplay wonderment that was on display this weekend. We’re clearly not professional photographers, journalists, costume designers, or Oscars red carpet commentators. We’re just an aging geek couple doing what we can for happy sharing fun. Enjoy! Please feel free to identify any characters we failed at recognizing! […]
