Next weekend’s Big Apple Con is sending out a press release every half hour or so — and they just released the programming, such as it is. We’ve put the whole thing in the jump but looking at the predominance of panels featuring meda and sports guests — Star Trek, the Termnator, Pete Rose — and scarcity of comics publishers — Avatar is the only one — calling this a “comic-con” is stretching things a bit.

Now, IF the con had put together a panel featuring Yogi Berra, Ric Flair and William Shatner and called it “The three most quoted living people,” then THAT would have been the most awesome event in human history. Whoo!

1 COMMENT

  1. I like the fact that Pete Rose’s Q & A is schedules at the same time as his signing schedule (which is 1-5), which leads me to believe that he really doesn’t want to spend any more time at the con than he really has to. And this is speaking as a fan who has paid $100 for a photo-op and a signing!
