I am planning on C2E2 next year. So I'll have to try out the Chicago beer. May bring a sixer of a local beer here for you and we can trade.

You make it to C2E2 and we will figure something out for sure.... if all else fails we can kidnap one of the creators and trade them for a six pack (unless it would be Alex and then we would just get a warm, half-drinken 40 oz)

I'm definitely planning on it. That and Planet ComiCon will be my two shows for next year. Planet is easy because we can go down and stay with family near there so less expense.

Yeah, you guys should definitely hit up the east coast of Canada. Cape Breton Island, where I'm from, and where EK currently lives was voted best island tourist destination off the coast of North America and third best in the world by Travel & Leisure Magazine this year.

A few hours west to Halifax (where I live) and you've got a fantastic city with lots of history, a great nightlife and some half decent comic professionals like Darwyn Cooke, Steve McNiven, Faith Erin Hicks & Mike Holmes kickin' around.

Unfortunately the comic-con scene hasn't really taken off here, so you might need a different excuse, but a new upstart (Hal-Con) from last year looks promising. It's moving to a larger venue, and hopefully will have some higher profile guests after being a huge success last year.

I just think I will have a hard time selling that one -- "hey honey we are going on vacation this year to.... Canada"

My wife actually wants to visit Canada so it might not be that much of a sale for me. Plus having a couple spots pre-loaded with tour guides might be cool.
I'd love to meet Murch and EK in person and have a pint or two.

Oh MURCH and EK are on my "short" list of boardies I would want to meet too. For next year's vacation we are talking Hawaii so Canada might be a tougher sell

Just tell her it's like Hawaii, with less beach and ocean.

I'll just have to assume that image is something cool, until I can get home. It's blocked here at work. :roll:
