First of all, thanks everyone for the kind words and don't feel bad about not being there! Before the Con I was worried this might be the last chance I had to attend an Avatar panel event but thanks to the news the show will continue (in one form or another) we all may very well have next year to look forward to as well! So start planning your trip for '08 now! Yup ~ everybody's costumes were cute (and I saw Avatar_Mom up there, too). What were they giving, tiny Appas? One of the things the winner of the costume contest won was a large stuffed Appa. I didn't have a chance to see all the other stuff she got but there was a basket full of goodies. I'm going to rename Avatar_Mom, "Appa_Mom" XD She's so awesome! She brought & gave me a stuffed Appa from her own collection. So I got one of my own even without winning a contest. Coppa, please answer my question. She's 18. You meet ISAIA?!?! And Irrel and Booter and all these other pwnsome artists??? I went nuts looking for them D; And the cosplayers...Of all days to not bring my camera...and a pen. Well I knew Irrel from the interview I did with her on the DongbuFeng podcast & we had arranged to meet up. I met Isaia & others because they we're standing behind me in line for the panel & I recognized thier drawing styles as they were sketching in their art books as we waited. It was a total gushing fan-boy moment and I'm sure I freaked them out. XD I got an awesome picture with all them hanging onto my Appa hat's horns, but it's on Amira's camera so I have to wait until she e-mails them to me to show you all. ........................Coppa, I love you. You win at life! XD Haha, I thought the girl dressed as Jin was Katara! XD lol Wow so many declairations of love from the ladies! Why couldn't this have happened to me in High School? XD J/K No, really thank you guys. I love ya all too! Here's some info on that comic while you wait for the video footage: The comic will be serialized in Nick Magazine (I think that's right) and it will tell the story of the gap betweent the end of Season 2 and the start of season 3 since there will apparently be a few months that have passed. That is indeed Jin that runs into Zuko & Mai! Apparently these comics are indeed meant to be cannon. Another comic will focus on the Gaang while they cope with not having Aang around to help them while he's in recovery from death.

Yay for Jin returning! :dances: I also can't wait for all of the other comics. I assume Sokka ripping up Kuei's book was part of the second comic you mentioned.

Aww, I can't wait to see Jin!! I loved her!! Man I can't wait to see the magazine, although I thought M&B said that season 3 would start a few weeks after season 2 ended. Not complaining, if you heard months then that's what I'll take!

Just got a good PM question from Kataang <3 I wanted to share the answer to:
Sadly, most of the questions asked at the panel weren't very intense or already answered years ago. Stuff like "Why does Aang have hair?"
They didn't say if Jin would return in the show or not. My guess is probably not since they will be in the Firenation almost exclusively.
The voice actor who plays Jet will be back though. However they hinted he's not playing Jet.

"Why does Aang have hair...."
...-_-
Still, I wonder who Jet's VA will voice? Obviously someone sort of younger, since Jet's voice isn't very deep. Hm.

Coppa, you are one amazing individual. I would have killed to have been there, and to have met you. Seriously.
It all looks so amazing. I can't imagine being surrounded by so many wonderful Avatar fans like that. I might have cried. xD
Awesome pics, and awesome report. I can't wait to see the videos. *karma*

Coppa, I am not surprised at what you did and what you saw. Dude, I knew you pwned but seeing it again and again makes to even cooler. The Appa tail you wore was ROFL...
I am so jealous of the Season 3 Poster you got signed by Mike and Bryan.

Wow so many declairations of love from the ladies! Why couldn't this have happened to me in High School? XD J/K No, really thank you guys. I love ya all too! Oh Coppa I lovelovelove you! Yeah, I heard from others that the Q&A wasn't all that informative. Wtf "Why does Aang have hair?"?!?! I cannot wait to see the pics with all the DeviantArt artists!!!!!! Esp. Isaia because her drawings kick arse. I wanna know if Toph will have an actual romantic interest of her own in the season. -->blatantly hinting at my OTP And oh em gee, Teo is back, Teo is BACK. I love that boy. I think that Uncle Alternate and Aunt Amira NOT living in San Diego is a sorta beneficial thing.. it's really teaching me about patience. +Showed me the lengths some fans would go to for these kinda things. I'm too cheap/too lazy to go to these things. I know how hot San Diego can be. [Though better there than LA. UCSD is the most beautiful campus in th world] Unlike so many others, I started getting into the darn show in May after the AP exames. So like late May of this year. I saw them bags under your eyes Coppa, and they were extreme. Eat Ginseng for extra energy. The chewy kinds are the bomb-diggity. OMG TEOPH SPASM

Wtf "Why does Aang have hair?"?!?! Bryan's responce was priceless: "Well he has these things called folicles..." LoL Very little was said about Toph unfortunately... However in the new outfit pictures they revealed she now wears shoes to help hide her identity... So the fact that they might block her "Earth vision" could be a major factor in her development. (that's my own speculation BTW) I'm about to hurt myself here....I need to see those comic con videos... I feel your pain too! Trust me when I say it was heartbreaking to have reached my limits physcially & with technology issues when I couldn't get the videos up for you each night... The best I can do for now though is give you some still shots from the first video I finished. It covers the card-collecting event from the first day, Thursday. We go from booth to booth, show off the cards in detail and talk about what each vendor had in the way of Avatar goodies: As you can see, I'm not just slapping some cell-phone cam footage up on youtube. I'm making actual report productions out of these & that takes a little more time and care. I'm glad that you all got to see the trailer right away though! That really was a super highlight from the show!

ahaha wrong.lol Kevin wow what awsome pics. I can't wait for the videos I think I will watch your trailer becasue if its any better then the other one then maybe I'll be able to see and hear better. Thanks agian oh and did you get any autographs? XD No, c'mon, she was just a really nice person & fun to talk to. Heck, everyone there was a lot of fun. It was just a blast being able to walk up to anyone squeling like a little fangirl at each other's costumes & hugging. Of course my oafishness kept me from getting any hugs... Which is why it was good to have my Appa hat, cuz it got lots of pets! Yes! I did manage to get an autograph! They were giving away copies of that new poster we saw earlier in the week. It was illustrated by Bryan & he was signing it for everyone along with Dee... BTW, let me thank both Amira & A.G. Cvetas for helping me out so much during the con. They took most of the still pics you see above since I was totally consumed with operating my video camera. You are very very welcome Kevin. It was nothing short of a BLAST. And I just find it very funny that you managed to crop my head off of the picture of Koraiyn. Nice Kev. XD Lmao. <3 And and, I hugged-ed you!! ;~; Amira hugged-ed you! You get love!!! <3 <3
