Convention Talk Part 2
===
MacBook Pro Microphone-1: [00:00:00] Welcome to the multi-verse comics podcast in today's episode. Part two of our convention talk. Fair warning to everyone. This one's a little more explicit than usual and you can only fix so much in post. Enjoy. /
Have I told you my Mike Grell, I hate Jim shooter story. No. Okay. But we're just delivering all the dish today, aren't we? Back before the pandemic, there was a small outfit that did conventions at the Irving Convention Center, and they specialized in bringing old school creators in. Al Milgram, Jim Shooter, Mike Grell.
Right, okay. There was a specific group, you know, you knew for us, our age bracket, you know, we'd go up there, I would go, my friend, Jeff spent 45 minutes talking to Al Milgram about the time Al Milgram lived with Jim, with Jim Starland and got a fancy. So I'm like, my girl's going to be here. And it was his autographs were reasonably [00:01:00] priced.
So I grabbed, and I don't know how I did this because Jim shooter was on, was a guest as well, and he was on the other side of the convention venue. Right. So my mind was, I was going to get one of Jim shooters early. Legion of Superheroes. Right. It also happened to be one that Mike Grell drew. See, you, it's the Milibandus thing.
You got it. So, so I go over and get There was an inker there they had worked on. I got him to sign it. And so I go over to Grell. Now for Jim Shooter you had to get a ticket. Okay. And so my sister and I, we are moving through there and Grell's signing all the stuff and He's signing this Legion and he sees I got a ticket.
He goes, are you going over to get Shooter's signature? I was like, yeah. He goes, hang on, gets up. He goes, fuck Jim Shooter. Love Mike Grell. And then he turns over to Jim Starlin who's sitting right there. Hey man, do you want to sign this book? We're going to send it over to Jim. Shooter gets, I mean, Starlin gets it and he is just, I mean, it's like a paragraph.
Wow. And I'm like, fuck me. So [00:02:00] we're trotting across and my sister looks at me cause she's there with me. Jeff is over wearing Al Milgram out and she's like, here I hand that to him. Are you? I said, no, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna do this, but I'm, I've got my back. So I get over there and shooter sees, he sees the Legion.
Like the topic goes, Oh, do you want me to sign this? And I was like, I really don't. I was like, I just came from my grill. And he looked at me and goes did he get, did he and Jim Schueter say fuck or Jim Starner say fuck Jim Schueter? I was like, yeah, let's give me the book. And Jim wrote on there. I got a bigger dick than both of y'all inside Jim Schueter.
And he goes, if you go back and show it to him. I'll sign something. Cause he was like charging 10 bucks. I go, I'll sign something for, I was like, I don't want to get thrown out of the convention. So I've got Legion Superheroes with Jim Starlin. It's got nothing to do with the book. That's so good.
Mike Grill. Fuck Jim Shooter and Jim Shooter's risk. I got a bigger dick. I've been working in comics since I was 14. Fuck all of y'all kind of see, man, this memories earning the explicit [00:03:00] it. I know, right? Memories. Oh my gosh. But you know, can't fix this in post. No. In this case. But it was, it's just those, that's why you go to convention kids.
'cause you're never gonna, you never know what you're never gonna run into and act polite. I've told you the. The Freddy Krueger, Robert England story. And I know I've told you and I'm going to, I'm asking them because I don't, I'm asking my cohorts cause I don't want to bore them with it, but I'm going to I will tell the audience.
So back when in my family, we treat conventions like family vacations. And so for many years fan Expo use the Irving convention center. In February and in October and in the summertime and the summertime convention was always the big one But that convention center can't really hold The amount of people that visit that every year so in downtown dallas they've got the k bailey hutchinson convention sales convention center that they have Spent a lot of [00:04:00] money on and actually this year they're going to be leveling part of it and rebuilding it and all of that so The very first year that they have the convention at Kay Baylor Hutchison the guy that plays Freddy Krueger, Robert Englund, is going to be a guest there.
And three of my kids, my grandkids are very much horror fan films, film. They love the Freddy Krueger stuff. And when they were little, he was at the Irving convention and they tried to sneak in behind the curtain. To say hi to him. And he did his best Freddie voice to tell them you couldn't take a picture, but you know, he knew they were kids.
There were like 10 and growled at them. They run off and they just they tell that story over and over again. And they get very animated about it. So he was coming back and they did a photo op. And the reason why I'm dragging the story out, folks, I'm trying to find the photo. In my phone so I can show, you know, it's a great site gag for radio.
So y'all are going to get to see it. But, um, my [00:05:00] compatriots might get to see it if I can find it. So I go Friday my typical routine with a family of five daughters. And at that time, nine grandkids that were very interested in going to the conventions was that I would show up on Friday to grab all the tickets ahead of time.
Now, do you pay for everybody's convention? At the time when they didn't have jobs, yes I did. I handled all of that. As they've gotten older and they've got jobs and they're more selective, they get to pick and choose what they're going to do. But, you know, I can't expect an eight year old to bankroll their old stuff.
And, you know, some of the girls at the time just weren't in the position. But I would rather, you know, Enjoy my time out there watching them geek out and try to pressure them to pay for this shit But don't get me don't get me wrong. There'll be times. We've spent two grand at a convention to try to get photo ops and things like that So that friday I get out there get the tickets and I go to the restroom And half the convention center is still under construction.
So I am using the restroom [00:06:00] and watch freddy krueger use restroom and Two other guys walk in and suddenly they decide to test the fire alarm. And at that point in time, what happens when you test the fire alarm is that the bathroom door shuts automatically. And the idea is that the bathroom is fireproof.
So you can't get out. And you know, people are standing there, they've done their business, but everyone, is they're picking up tickets early and they realize they're standing in the bathroom with Freddy Krueger. That's so great. And so I've learned over the time as running it with Frank Miller is that you don't really want to try to A, shake people's hands in the bathroom because they might have been done doing something.
Or you also want to remember these guys are humans. Right. So here's, I'm going to show Mr. St. James the picture. Right. Nice. Okay. So that's gonna be the cover image. Send that over to me. I will. It'll be the cover image for this episode. There you go. Perfect. So I'm standing there and these guys are geeking out and I'm remembering my Frank Miller lesson [00:07:00] of don't bother me with my hands on my private parts.
Exactly. Door gets done. I'm leaning up against the wall. He looks at me. So I start talking about hockey because he's a hockey fan. Right. I remember that from my sister and he's like, Thank you for treating me like a human being. These guys want autographs. And he's trying to explain to him that he's, you know, paid talent.
And there one guy was kind of an asshole about it. It's like, no problem. I said, you know, we're out here. I kind of, kind of gave him a little more information. We're out here is my kid. I said, my grandkids are going to want to come see you. He's like, Oh, really? Cause you think they're going to be scared of the glove?
I was like, no. Pulls out a little business card. He signs it. He goes, when you get to my handler. You give him this, you let him know. We had, I said I'll do whatever they want. Because I appreciate that. You left me alone and didn't, and I was like, don't go wrong. I'm starstruck. He goes, no. It goes like he was like, if I, he apparently Frank [00:08:00] Sinatra's a.
Big draw for him. It's like, I was in the bathroom with Frank Sinatra. I don't know if I could hold my shit together because, but you did, thank you. And so I'm going to send this picture to Jason so that he can put it up. But Mr. And it almost took 10 minutes to get this because he would set it up and then he wanted to go see what the picture looked like.
And he's like, I don't like that. And so that is my youngest daughter with my two grand. Now Allie is in there. Right. And. It is, I'm not saying that every time that you treat people the right way to convince you, you're going to get this, but remember, people will go out of their fricking way. Oh, you treat you right.
And that's, and then the kids tell that story over and over again. So they use that photo. And so when they're in line another, I will I'm taking over for a minute. When Sandra passed away, She was a huge Stephen Amell fan. Right. So Arrow was in its second season [00:09:00] and there were only two requests Sandra ever made about going to conventions.
One is she wanted a photo with Stan Lee. It's one of the four pictures that I have of her smiling. Right. Is with Stan Lee. Okay. The other one when she heard that Stephen Amell was going to be A guest, right? She's like, I want to go. We set that out. We were like, I want to, I want a picture with that guy, you know, bought the ticket in October.
She passed away in December and in February he had, because his line was so popular, he put some limitations on like one photo. Well, one person, two people photos is a whole different outfit than what's out there now. And I reached out to his agent. And just send her, send a copy of Sandra's obituary, kind of said, and he made a special, he made a special, and even looked at the, he spent about 20 minutes with the girls.
Cause he read the obituary [00:10:00] and yeah, this is for, and once again, half these girls don't even want to be at the convention, but when they were like, we want to do this picture because of mom that was, I'll send that one to you too, Jason, if you know, I don't know, I don't know. But It's those kind of, if I have to reinforce with people how to behave with talent.
Yes. I tell those stories. That's right. Because, you know. , our family was very Doctor Who. Right. So. Did you see the lineup for this summer? No, I didn't. Oh my gosh. David Tennant's coming, and so is I forget her name. The female doctor. Jody. Jody Whitaker. And Matt Smith.
River Song. Alex Kingston, Billy Piper, and Catherine Tate. Yeah. Okay. My girls, including the wife, squealed when I told them Catherine Tate's going to be there. It's 445 for the whole group, if you're going to take a picture. I don't know about that. So we bought six of those. Okay. That sucks. Wow. Wow, honey.
I mean, I'm not saying John's missing some green arrow books and we pawned them on eBay, but he might be. That might have happened. That's okay. He doesn't listen. He [00:11:00] doesn't listen. He doesn't listen. Yeah. Yeah. Actually, I think he might. He referenced something. I don't know. That's fine. But if they're missing, that's where they're at.
Okay. It's for a good cause. It's for a good cause. Yeah. So I'll get you a copy of the picture. So one year, Angela and I went to a conference for work and it happened to be. The hotel they had us in happened to be the hotel that all the talent for the sci fi convention at Salt Lake City stayed at. So Angela and I had gone skiing at Snowbird.
We came back and we're just sitting in the lobby. There's a nice piano player doing his thing. And it's a really lovely lobby setup. And we look around. And it's all the doctors and River Song and like Everybody's there and I walked out and in the front friggin Buzz Aldrin's out there and Buzz Aldrin he's wearing the like Mission Mars shirt because he does that right and we talk space forever and he [00:12:00] was thrilled to talk space.
He loved it and I loved it and it was a great moment. Buzz is just happy people remember him. Oh, well, he's a, you know. But then I see Matt Smith. Right. Matt Smith is checking in and I just walked up and I said, listen I don't want to bother you, but I just wanted to tell you, I really love your work and my whole family gets, would get together every week and watch your show.
And it was a big deal for us. And he was just frozen like how dare you talk to me Yeah, he would he was very like he was put off right that I said anything and literally that's what I said I was like, I was just very complimentary of the guy and all those things so You never know like no, I just wanted to hang out And this guy, like, and I wasn't even trying to talk to him about like, Hey, what happened in this episode?
I was just having like a, I was just thanking him for the work that he does. Right. Because it really was a big deal for our family. Right. We all come together around that stuff. So it was [00:13:00] very weird. One year for Christmas and I, we were not like a go to convention on a regular basis family. So one year, I loved it.
All your family photos, Scott. are with random celebrities. Those are all from conventions. I know, but what's happening is you're sending me all these pictures and they are, they're your pictures, but with, I, the picture I have in my head of you is that you don't actually sit down, like you don't go to the JCPenney photo place and get your family photos every once in a while.
No, you go to a convention and get, you get a family photo with this random celebrity. Of course. Well, and that's pretty close. That's, I mean, what's also like Matt Smith. He came to town in October, and I had the opportunity to see him, but I didn't believe the son of a bitch would show up. Because he's canceled like 97 times.
And then he showed up, and I was like, you asshole. David Tennant Well, we're all just dumping on Matt Smith. And he was my least favorite. Well, I [00:14:00] mean You know, he's changed his attitude. Because at first when he left Doctor Who, he's like, Oh, I don't want to be remembered for this. And now he's like, you know, I was young, I was naive.
He's like, that means you didn't get a lot of work. You know, I'm gonna, you got, Well, now he's everywhere, though. Well, he is, but he's getting like, you know, the crown and the house of dragons, which he knows is gonna go down the toilet anyhow. But he kind of got William Shatnered. Cause Shatner thought he was going to go off and do great Shakespearean things.
And Matt Smith's a great actor. Hey, he was in Morbius. Yeah, he was in Morbius, kids. Which you know. I didn't hate it. I know everybody else did. I'm not saying I hated it, but Last night in Soho. The problem with that is when I see a movie that I could have made with my cell phone, with my friends, Yeah.
And it makes more, you know, and I get offended because the three of us could have made Morbius. Yeah, right. With, we could have done it for cheaper, probably better quality, and then we wouldn't have to be doing podcasts on the weekend. That's true. I mean, so, you [00:15:00] know, I could have had a better, definitely could have had a better plot and a stronger dialogue.
Yeah, there's, I could have written that. Yeah, there's, you know, That's another show. There are times, now I know we're talking about convention photos and Doctor Who, but there, aren't there times when you want to look at show executives and go, how did you not know this was going to be horrible? Well this Madame Web thing, like what in the world?
That's another show. But here's the thing, why are they making these movies? Morbius? For God's sake, nobody wants a Sony wants to hang on to Spider Man rights, and because the first, Well just make a Spider Man movie. Because they can't. They can't. Because the first name you see on a Sony movie that sucks is Marvel, so guess who gets the blame?
And you know Feige's like, I ain't nothing to do with that. I'm Jeff Loeb and you. I don't know anything about Agents of S. H. I. E. L. D. I don't know anything about any of this. And I think Sony does it on purpose. Like, hey man, let's just Because, you know, Marvel finally said, we want X Men and Fantastic Four.
And Fox went, screw you. And Disney went, here's a check. So now we own you. Sony's like, well no we got the PlayStation. So you can't take our film from us. So we're going to make [00:16:00] Spider Man movies. With Not Spider Man, but we got Uncle Ben. We got Uncle Ben, folks, and you're gonna like that, so.
Not good. So. Keep going. I did do a family photo with a Doctor Who character. We did Karen Gillan. Who was, what was her? Pond. So she was Annie Pond. So I gave this like, photo op to my kids for Christmas. My oldest kid is weeping. She is so thrilled to get this thing.
She is weeping. And we get there And Amy Pond had like shaved her head. So here we go. And she's got short red hair. And I know here's the funny, I think I'm at the same convention that you're at, because I get a picture with short hair, Karen Gillian, but I sent Mr. St. James a picture of long haired Karen, where she's like, how many grandkids do you have?
Keep going. Cause I know the convention changed their rules because of my family. That's funny. [00:17:00] So, so we go and we go to do this. We go and do this picture. And we get it and like one of the kids eyes is closed and like she had spent a bunch of time talking to them. They were really excited. And we come back and we're like, yeah, I want somebody to close their eyes.
She goes, Oh, awesome. Let's do it again. And she was so great. She was excellent. We ended up with a good picture and everybody was happy and she was just, she was the best. We loved her. Her and I wish she had rubbed off on her friend Matt Smith a little bit more. But clearly she didn't. Well, I think Matt now probably if he comes back to Texas and I get why he, you know, it's hot, it's not fun, you know, I get why he might not want to come back.
But I bet you he's a little more generous because I tell you that our favorite doctor, we had two of them, as far as photo ops, Peter Capoli. And the picture I'm sending y'all is where I think the convention changed their policy. Cause before this, they would say, okay, you can have three people in a [00:18:00] photo, but if you bought another photo ticket, they'll all be in the same photo.
You don't say that when I've got 27 grandkids that want to pitch in with Dr. Who, because I just sent you the one with Peter Capali the Coleman and the the lady that played the female master. Right. Yes. And that took 17 minutes. So when we showed up the handler for this particular photo was like, Oh my God, this is too many kids.
I was like, I bought three photo ops and they're all gonna get in there together. And she's like, Well, no, I don't think so. I said, Hey, Pete, do you have a problem with this? Many people showing up? I just gave you a thousand dollars. Pete had no problem with that. I just gave you a thousand dollars to get all my kids in front of them.
That's great. And and you can see the smirk on my face. I said that. And after that, the convention put a hardcore Only three. This is this. You have to do two photos. And so we all joke that is because of the Gilbert Sanchez Morales, [00:19:00] Pirellis Rodriguez Zepeda family. The other one, and I forget his name, Stephen's going to have to help me with this.
The more famous movie doctor who only got to do one Pullman game. Yes. He, even though the kids saw it and, you know, Spielberg was a part of that, when we showed up for that, he hugged every kid and, you know, my daughter, Erica was like, Oh my God, can you say I'm the doctor? And he goes, I am the doctor and does all of this stuff.
And we stood there for once again, another 10 minutes. And I was apologizing to people behind us, but he wanted to know every one of my grandkids story. Right. He wanted, what, Doctor was your favorite, I know I only did one but then he's like, but I'm a big time actor. And he started pushing the big big boy audio stuff that he did, and went over to his handler and grabbed, you know, grabbed tapes out to hand to him.
And the kids unfortunately didn't know what a cassette was. It didn't [00:20:00] really, they're all standing there, but he, you know, if they weren't Doctor Who fans before. That guy. Right. You know, I'll buy him a beer anytime he comes to Texas because he was very and one of my youngest grandkids wanted to ask him every, and there's a line for him, he wanted to ask him every doctor who had the TARDIS work.
Why can't I find your sonic screwdriver? Because I have the other two screwdrivers for everybody else. Right. And he was very very accommodating. Yes. So I'm gonna, I'm gonna join this love fest. With my own favorite. Everyone's got a favorite story, so here we go. And I'm sending my photos to you both as well.
And this is going to be so fascinating for everyone listening to this. We love these side gags. Was a show in Atlanta. I think this was 2000 and Let me think about this. 2010. And so I learned that Fred Williamson, [00:21:00] Richard Roundtree, and Pam Greer were all going to be at this show. So, if you're a cinephile like I am, and you know, you know what Shaft!
You, basically, you've got Foxy Brown, Hammer, and Shaft all gonna appear in the same thing. And you could get a group photo with them all. You talk about Starstruck, I'm standing there, I've got the two little ones with me, and I'm just I'm shaking. I'm literally shaking. I don't know how to be in the same room with Shaft.
Because, well, yeah, and I'm like, this is like, you know, I can't believe I'm actually in, you know, I'm sharing air with three actors. I have actually really admired and enjoyed their work. And who didn't have a crush on Pam Grier? Well, oh my gosh. Yeah. I mean, it's like, holy Toledo.
This is, you know, so I was stuttering madly. And of course my girls have no idea who these people are. So I'm trying to introduce them because I was the only person who [00:22:00] bought the group photo ticket. So. It was, you know, the photographer was always like, Hey, when we're done here, you guys are done. They were like, great.
So I'm stuttering. And I'm so nervous. And I'm explaining who each of these people are to my children. And I made the mistake. Oh, no. Of saying to Mr. Williams this is Mr. Roundtree. And, Mr. Williams was like, no, I'm Mr. Williams. That's Mr. Roundtree. And I was like, oh god I'm so, jeez, I'm so, I'm nervous, shaking.
And Fred Williams said to me, he goes, that's okay, we all look the same. Oh my gosh. And I was like, and I knew that was, I looked down at myself, I'm like, you son of a, damn it, man. And he's laughing his ass off at this, because he knows. He's just taken how uncomfortable I am and just skyrocketed it to the nth degree.
And Richard Roundtree is there kind of chuckling. My, my little kids are looking at each other like, I don't, what's wrong with dad? Because dad is [00:23:00] dad crying? Is that why you look so white in this picture? Yes. You look so white in this picture. I'm just like, damn it, man. But, roundtree was just cool as ice and Fred Williams is like, you know, he's goofing around with my kids, like Kung Fu poses.
Come on, show me what you, show me what you got and all this kind of stuff. And and you know, then Pam Grier gives him a big hug. Like, oh, you sweet little, you know. And I'm just like, I cannot believe this happened. And Richard Roundtree shook, you know, everybody's hands. And so we left there. Yeah, it's a few years ago.
Yeah. Thank you. So we left there and we went to see Henry Winkler. Now. Henry Winkler. Henry Winkler looks like he's happier to be in his picture than you are. So this is what happened with Henry Winkler. So I went up to him and I was like, you know, Mr. Winkler, I'm, you know, it's so, you know, to meet you and dah.
And he's got a handler as well. And I said, look, I don't want anything. I don't want to bother you or anything. I just wanted to say that my wife is so disappointed. She wasn't feeling well. She [00:24:00] was supposed to be with us but she was sick. My wife was so looking forward to being here today.
But unfortunately she still, she couldn't come because Night Shift is one of her favorite movies. And she absolutely loves that movie. And without missing a beat, Henry Winkler puts his finger up, like. One moment. I've had this request before. And he turns around and he's rummaging around in the back and he comes back with a glossy black and white photograph from night shift of him and Michael Keaton.
And he's like, what's your wife's name? I'm good. Yeah, tell him. I'm sorry I missed you, you know, all the best, loving, all this kind of stuff. And gives it to me. And I'm like, okay, so yeah, I will totally pay for this. And Winkler just gives, you're not going to see this boys and girls, but the two gentlemen next to me will Winkler does this.
I'm like, okay. And he says, Hey, do you, would you like a photo? And I'm like, well, yeah. And his handler starts to say, Okay, [00:25:00] well, photos of Mr. Winkler will be dr and Henry Winkler shushed him away. Oh, it's great when, it's great when he handled that. Yeah, he's like, no, come on. And that's a very sincere moment.
In that photograph, what you can see, Is that my youngest one, Morgan, has got this big smile on her face and, well they both do. Because Henry Winkler is tickling them in the photo, like, no, I can get some big smiles out of these two, come on, let's go. So when we left, he kissed them both on the forehead.
So I tell my girls who are much older now, you know, that was the day you shook hands with shaft and he got kissed on the head by farm, by the farms. And of course they don't. And I said, yeah, it sounds great. And I'm like, you have no idea what this means to a seventies kid. Oh my God. So, but no, Henry Winkler was an absolute delight.
And if I did, I loved him and I just, I couldn't love him anymore after that. So he was beautiful. So the two photos I sent because y'all got all right, here we go. First [00:26:00] picture is of me and my sister. Nobody on the podcast can see these pictures. But we're going to figure out a way to show them to you.
We'll figure out. We'll do a montage on our Facebook page. So, it's a picture of me and my sister with Carrie Fisher. And so when we get up there now, of course, Carrie is crazy. . Okay. Yeah. So she was in a sweet and delightful way. She, well, yeah. And she goes, oh, how long have y'all been married? And my sister goes, oh, we're brother and sister.
She goes, well, I'm into that . So we take that picture and a couple years later, after she passed, mark Hamill is there and we walk up and my sister says, Hey, I've got a picture of Carrie, would you mind holding it? And he goes, oh, yeah. And he goes, and. He actually kind of goes how long y'all been married and she's like, oh, we're brother and sister he goes, okay And he goes Carrie was really into that
We did we said that afterwards he goes that's her signature line guys and It was just that is one of the top five Because the convincing things also my sister and I's we go raffles and I wear that Green Lantern baseball jersey. [00:27:00] Yeah, that my kids always wanted. There's two things that happens to me in my conventions.
People want to know where I got the Green Lantern jersey and how much it is. And someone always asked me, Am I George Lucas? Right. And I'm like, I don't get that. But I have signed two autographs in my lifetime. It's George Lucas. We are so good. Lucas and Neil Gaiman are so going to sue the hell out of us.
He's charging an autograph fee. Well, it was some guys like, hey, are you George Lucas? I said, no man, I'm just wearing this. No, you're George Lucas. This guy was drunk off his ass. I was like. We took pictures. And I'm like, holding my thumb, I'm going, here we go! We're signing my, and if you get my grandkids together, they will tell you, I don't know how many times someone goes and walks up to Grandpa and asks if he's George Lucas.
I don't get that at all. That started at Jennifer, my second daughter's 21st birthday. Someone walked up at the party and goes, are you George Lucas? Because I hated Phantom Menace. I was like, yeah, I really screwed [00:28:00] up with that midichlorian thing. What I really wanted to do, and I had some long bullshit story and I just spun out and He was like, Oh my God, my, that would have been a way better movie.
Well, he was like, Oh yeah, that's great. I was I involved the Battlestar Galactica was showing up and you know, the enterprise was here and it was going to be, you know, one of those things you hate the cross stuff. Oh, absolutely. Cross pollination. But yeah. What's the guy, Patton Oswalt. Have you heard his?
Oh yeah. Absolutely. That one is genius. Disney bought Marvel. Disney bought Marvel and they bought Star Wars. Here's what happens next. And I'm sure someone there is like We're going to have to cut Pat in a check because we're going to steal these Boba Fett ideas and cause it was almost blow for blow.
Oh, I know. It really is. But there's a final moment for you is the idea that what was it? Paramount was going to buy Warner Brothers. Warner Brothers was going to buy Paramount. Something like that. Yeah. It just fell through. But for a brief moment there, I had this thought like, Oh [00:29:00] God, Warner Brothers is going to own Star Trek.
And You're going to see a lot of Star Trek DC stuff crossing over, aren't you? Maybe not. Anyway. We had fun. I don't know if anyone listening to this did. We shared a lot of photos. Because you have to do the future. They can go in the past. I don't want to see it. What am I even talking about? I don't want to see this.
I never want to see this. You don't want to see it. All right. No, I don't like cross pollination of IP You know this that's why I won't read any of those Marvel DC books. So good. I bought the George Perez one the JLA Avengers. You read just love it. No, I didn't read it I bought it because I think proceeds are going to some charity or something.
