<\/p>\nSunday was a nice and easy day as compared to Saturday.\u00a0 There weren’t a whole bunch of panels I was anxious to see that day, and ultimately ended up not attending any panels.\u00a0 Instead I spent a whole bunch of time going through the Dealer Room’s, Exhibitor Room,\u00a0the Celebrity Walk of Fame, and taking a bunch of pictures.<\/p>\n
While in the Celebrity Walk of Fame, Serv and I took some time to stop by Michael Dorn’s table.\u00a0 Michael Dorn is best known for his role as the Klingon Worf on ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation’ and ‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’.\u00a0 However, that’s not the only show he’s starred on… As we approached the table, Dorn\u00a0had this disinterested look on his face as some obsessive Star Trek fan was asking him about wearing all the Klingon make-up.\u00a0 Serv and I asked Dorn if he could pose for a photo with us.\u00a0 Still looking somewhat bored, he politely informed us that he couldn’t as DragonCon is very strict about celebrity photos only taking place during the scheduled photo opportunities.\u00a0 We were disappointed, but carried on.\u00a0 We then explained to Dorn that we were hoping to get his picture because we were actually big fans of the show CHiPs.\u00a0 At this point, Dorn really perked up.\u00a0 Yup, believe it or not, Dorn was a regular on CHiPs (starring in 78 episodes according to Dorn).\u00a0 We then spent about five minutes talking with Dorn about CHiPs.\u00a0 He said he stays in touch with a couple of the guys from the show and was disappointed when they didn’t contact him to be in the revival, CHiPs 2000.\u00a0 He went on to say that if they’d called him, he would have done the revival for free just to have the opportunity to hang out with those guys again.\u00a0He also mentioned that Chris Pine (who is playing the young James T. Kirk in the upcoming Star Trek movie) is the son of\u00a0Robert Pine (who played the Sergeant on CHiPs).\u00a0 Small world.\u00a0 It would have been cool to get our picture with Dorn so we could put it beside our picture from 2007 with Erik Estrada.<\/p>\n
We also swung by Michael Rosenbaum’s table.\u00a0 Rosenbaum is best known as Lex Luthor on Smallville.\u00a0 While I watched the first few seasons of that show, I’m more a fan of Rosenbaum’s work on the Justice League cartoons as the voice of the Flash.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I really wanted to get my picture with him, but he mentioned that he was probably going to skip his last photo op.\u00a0 So I instead settled for an autographed photo (below) and a handshake.\u00a0 We’re totally BFF now; I can feel it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I also took some time to stroll through the Art Show.\u00a0 In all the years I’ve come to DragonCon, I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve never actually visited the Art Show.\u00a0 So this was a nice treat.\u00a0 Last year, my friend Sterling bought me a print of an Aquaman painting.\u00a0 He bought it to help inspire my writing.\u00a0 While I really haven’t put much time into fictional writing this past year, I do believe it’s help inspire me to write more; for example this very blog was started just six months ago.\u00a0 I love the Aquaman print so much I went searching to see if the same artist was there this year.\u00a0 His name is Tom Fleming<\/a> and he’s done some fantastic paintings for both Marvel and DC.\u00a0 Recently he’s done some of the VS. trading card game images for DC.\u00a0 When I found his booth, I was in awe at his work.\u00a0 I quickly found the Aquaman image hanging up on his booth… and then I was taken aback by the kick-ass Firestorm image hanging right next to Aquaman.\u00a0 It’s almost like he knew I was coming.\u00a0 Needless to say, there is now a framed Firestorm print by Tom Fleming hanging on my wall right next to my framed Aquaman print.<\/p>\n Come back tomorrow to hear the rest of Sunday.\u00a0 As a sneak peek, the rest of the day included alcohol, Snake Eyes, werewolves, and the Beastie Boys.\u00a0 Be afraid, be very afraid.<\/p>\n![\"Firestorm](\"http:\/\/onceuponageek.com\/images\/firestorm_flem.jpg\")
