July 25
Tomorrow we are headed to the San Diego Comic Convention. This year I’m planning to: 1. Stock up on all my superhero accessories, i.e. utility belts, capes, scrunchies etc. ; 2. Watch the Superhero Fashion Show Benefit where I’m sure we’ll learn that there’s more to superhero fashion than just the tights; and 3. Attend the Marvel Comics Symposium which is introducing its newest superhero: Super Face. By day he plays acoustic guitar at an independently-owned coffee shop but by night he fights crime and injustice as an alpha-mutant with super-fast face-healing abilities. (It’s all a bit unclear, but it sounds promising.) – Kiran
