Howdy all, a little story I'd like to share on the awesomeness of Dan Slott and how reading A:TI paid off BIG TIME from the NYCC on Sunday during Marvel's Prize or No Prize contest-

Ok, I was in the audience during Marvel's typical Prize or No Prize contest, where Executive Editor Tom Brevoort asks esoteric trivia questions from a variety of categories and fans get to answer for a chance to win variety of prizes ranging from original sketches to toys and the whatnot, all being handed out by Dan himself This had gone on for a while until the final round where the whole shebang of prizes was being handed out- Hulk hands, Iron Man action figure and toy, Skrull masks signed by creators, sketchs, and more.

The Quesstion? I'm sure anyone here can answer- Who is Steve Harmon better known as? :D and if you read the last issue of A:TI you'd know ;-)

As soon as I heard that I jumped on my seat, in case the guy in the hotspot didn't know it, and luckily he didn't. Dan being the nicest guy that he is knew I was the first one to raise my hand so I said the answer, walked up on stage, and collected my prizes. That and gave Dan a hug ;) OHHHH YEAAAH! Good times :) The hard part was lugging this stuff around :no:, but it was worth it!
So once again, THANK YOU DAN!

Dammit I hate you Spidey616 I know that answer better then my hand.

I wish I had gone to NYCC. But speaking seriously that's pretty darn lucky of you, how did you manage to get it all back home with you?

That's cool. Congrats. I wish I DIDN'T know who Steve Harmon is. Not that I don't like Slapstick, far from it. I love that he's in the Initiative. I just wish my brain held on to the more "important" information, like school stuff. Instead, I remember stuff like Slapstick's civillian name.

Anyone else know who Rick Sheridan is?

Sleepwalker and what makes it amazing to me that trivial bit of info came out of my brain is that I think I only read two issues of the series.

Spidey616, that is absolutely incredible! Congrats to you!

Hey, this question might seem like it's coming from left field, but bear with me and think about it before you answer:


Can I have all of that stuff?


I realize you won it in a really cool way and it was an amazing experience, but that stuff looks super-cool and I want it.

So, what do you say?





:D
