*Gasp!*

I live in northeastern New Jersey. It is ridiculously easy for me to get to the Javits Center, and I don't have work on the 18th. I could go if he's there on that day.

And this is my first post on these forums. ;)

Dammit!
I live in Philly, just a short drive up but I'll be in DC that weekend.
I gotta check this calendar thing more often.

I'll be there!

I got to meet Mr. Butcher at last year's Comic Con in NYC. Looking forward to getting more books signed if he's doing a signing.

I'll also have my Service Dog with me, so any fans who see a crazy lady walking around with a dog dressed like a superhero, come say hi! I love talking to other Dresden fans.

YAY!! I was hoping he'd be there :D
I'll be there on Saturday. I was lucky enough to meet him last time and I'm looking forward to meeting him again.

Do we know what time he's signing? I looked all over the NYComicCon Webpage and programming and whatnot and I couldn't find a time.

It hasn't been posted yet.  I'm going to poke Jim as soon as he returns home from the signing tour, in a couple days.

Is there anyway that his panel will be recorded/transcribed so that the poor bastards who can't either get to a signing or New York get to hear/read what is said?  Just curious.

Derek just posted the following:

So who's going?

I know Jim Butcher and I will be there but what about you?

I'm setting up Jim's final schedule as we speak...

Jim will be signing for sure at the Midtown Comics Booth 1541 from 1030-1130am and the DB Booth 1527 from 5-6pm on Sat.

The company will be holding a panel from 2-3PM on Saturday, April 19th in Room 1E07 which Jim will sit in on for your Questions.

We will have a NYCC Edition of Dresden #1 available.

So I hope to see you there.

-Derek

Ahh! I've been considering buying a ticket to this year's Comic Con for a few months now (but put off on it after last year's fiasco with the National Guard being called in and all), and then the other day I find out Jim Butcher is going to be there! Argh! Damn you indecision (and an empty wallet)! Damn you to hell!

Bah! I'm moving that weekend. Still in the Philly area, but no time for a side trip to NY. It's also my birthday on the 18th, so people are going to be looking to drag me around, feed me booze and watch me go Godzilla on my little burg.

Got my con ticket today, I hadn't even realized Jim was coming until I picked up the Butcher Block this week.  Thanks Priscellie!
