Apparently none of us are above petty bribery to meet our sinister demands.
Oh and as I said, candy and David Prowse (Darth Vader himself man!)

Prowse is going to be at the Pittsburgh Comicon?! Oh crap. Crap. Seriously. Crap. I might have to drive over for that. (I'm putting way too many dates on my calender. Sheesh.)
But, hey, there's nothing wrong with bribery. It's blackmail you have to look out for.

Yep, Vader is going to be at Pittsburgh this year. I heard he's really tall. Ever notice that everyone in Star Wars is either really short or really tall? I got to hug Chewie once and Darth Maul is a shorty but way scary in real life.
Pittsburgh Comicon is my favorite con by far. Not too big for it's britches but not small either. It's also very Independent friendly, which is good for those of us out there pushing out our stuff all by our lonesomes.
Renee is awesome and she's kept the con going despite some serious crap going down in her life. I am rooting for her husband. I think he's been terribly wronged.

Now that you mention it, I do realize it. I knew Maul was itsy, and always assumed Chewie was too, but I've never seen either of them outside of the internet. Definitely seems like something worth attending.
I've only gone to a couple cons, ACen being one, and it's huge, and this little dinky one called Ikasucon. I did notice that the smaller cons seem to be more independent friendly, to use your wording. Though, those are both anime cons, and therefore not the same thing at all. So, this comicon might be something I need to pop in on.
I don't know anything about her, or her husband, but I hope things turn out alright, whatever they are. Anyone who shows strength during times of great stress get my unwavering respect. For what it's worth.

Chewie is one tall sucker. He was not on stilts. I think he's about Seven foot something....
Renee's husband was suspect in the murder of his first wife. It's been over a decade but police officials looking to clean up old, unsolved cases went back in and basically set him up and threw the book at him with very little evidence to go on. He's innocent, has an alabi but it doesn't matter to them. They are looking into appealing and retrials for the poor man and Renee has been a real trooper through it all.
I remember when something similar happened to the founder of Dragon Con. One of his enemies made a false claim to police that he had child pornography in his house (it was anime and manga). He was arrested and was going through so much crap that they thought Dragon Con might have to shut down for awhile. Luckily, so many people came up to bat for him that Dragon Con continues on strong as ever.
