Comic-con Comic-con Comic-con!!!

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

Well, we’re all in San Diego right now.  And yup, that includes me.

I guess Tomo Media really does need me to do ALL the work.  But it’s ok, I know that without me things would be a mess.

I’m taking a little bit of a break to write a quick update on things.  The gang came  down on Tuesday to start set up for the booth.  Actually, it was (again) DMI’s booth, but of course the Tomo Media folks had to set up everything, but it’s ok.  We did manage to “arrange” something again. ^_^

Last night was preview night, and today was the first day.  For those coming down from LA today, I hope you missed the accident.  If you’re here now, come and say hi to us.

Hopefully, I’ll get a longer break so I can actually browse around.  Stoopid 801-chan still thinks she’s in charge (and I’m indulging her a bit) so she wants me to “work” on my break.  Heh heh… she doesn’t know blogging is not really work.

Anyways, be sure sure to pick up all of Tomo Media’s new releases at the convention.  These books should become collectors items in the future, esp. since they are misprinted with the old 801 Media logo.

Also, if you glomp one of the guys at the convention, maybe we can get some pics of the guys glomping each other. O_o

Farewell for now, and hopefully we’ll have a more “meaty” update for you all later.

Anime Expo Wrap-up!

Friday, July 11th, 2008

Wow - so it’s been an extremely busy week.  First off, I’d like to say that Anime Expo was an extreme success.  I’m so glad our panels went well and that we were able to sell quite a bit.

In the background, things weren’t going so well.  First off 801-chan and Kampai both had to ask moi for help.

801-chan: Ummmm… Tomo-chan?

Tomo-chan: Yes?

801-chan: Are you free 4th of July weekend?  We need help for AX.  Actually, we need help with the preparations too.

Tomo-chan: Actually, I did have something, but since I’m sooo nice, I’ll cancel it.

801-chan: Thanks. You are soooo 1337.  With Kampai drinking…

Kampai: *hic* 801-chan, what do you want *hic* me to pack next?

801-chan: … things are moving a lot slower that I need them to be.  Plus, I didn’t realize how much work you did.  I don’t know how we can survive without you and your superior organizational skills.

Now during the convention itself, it was hectic.  We had to help the dumb June/DMP folks since they don’t know as much yaoi as we do.  I mean, after all, the 801 Media *cough* I mean Tomo Media folks are the experts. We had to help sell their books, in return for some slaves… I mean help.

801-chan and Kampai, we better make sure they follow through with their side of the deal.  And we need to get the cameras ready.  Oh, and we should throw BoyzRule and render into the mix. Maybe we should get some props, come to think of it.  Like angel wings or something.

Anyways, back to the subject matter. Basically, I bailed them out.  Anime Expo was a success thanks to me! *takes a bow*  But after all, what would Tomo Media be without Tomo-chan?

Now on to Comic-Con!!
