And as an added bonus, Fear Fest threw in their lot with Wizard to make it an even larger
event.
So we were able to entertain our inner geeks with comics and art and then scare the crap out
of the little bastards with some horror fare. Where I come from, we call that a “twofer”.
On hand for the Fear Fest portion was Danny Trejo and Corey Feldman. I had hoped for a
knock down, drag out fight between the two of them but alas, it was not to be… This time. I
considered telling Mr. Trejo that Mr. Feldman had called him a Mexi-CAN’T but I thought it
might come back on me somehow and then I’d be beat up by both of them and then they’d go
have milkshakes together. It was the camaraderie over the frosty beverages I feared most,
only in that I would not be invited.
We made it up to the show early on Friday and scheduled our interviews for Saturday, taking
the rest of the day to play fan boys and make our way around the show, fawn over our faves,
and make some new friends. Through out this coming week, we’ll be posting up the
interviews and reviews from Saturday and follow up with some friends we made at last year’s
Wizard World.
And of course, the Reckon Crew couldn’t just be content with showing up, we had to bring the
booze and the chaos to full bear when Friday night rolled around. We hooked up with “Darth”
Terry Parr and his lovely lady Amber Alert, who also happens to be one of our Gamettes. Yes,
that’s a shameless plug. Pizza and beer were the order of the night and the Reckon Crew
downed both in large quantities.
Saturday night was the “Heroes 4 Heroes” charity event with several of the attending artists
lending their impressive talents to what was a very successful night for the charity… and
there was, of course, more drinking on our part.
Sunday morning saw us packing up at five a.m. to make the trip back to our respective
homes. Weary, bleary eyed, and slightly hungover, we left Arlington in the wee hours, already
plotting our heroic invasion of next year’s Wizard World. Oh, yes… We will be back.

We were off to see the Wizard… World.
Some of you may have noted the distinct lack of..
well, us over the weekend. That’s because we
were off in Arlington attending Wizard World Texas.
We gloried in the geekdom, basked in the nerdy,
and had an all around great time. I’ll give you a
couple of seconds to stop being jealous.
For those of you who haven’t had the fortune of
attending, Wizard World is one of the world’s
largest Comic Conventions to make a stop in
Texas.
