Let me tell you a bit about Fan Expo. Let's say you want to attend AnimeCon (who doesn't), and you really need to get that limited edition Cowboy Bebop box set. But it's the same day as HorrorCon. If you don't get Wes Craven's autograph you're going to explode, right?

Wait a minute, ComicCon's on the same day? Are you serious? And ScifiCon? And Gaming Expo! What the munch?!!?

Don't worry, guy it's just FanExpo. It's the culmination of all geek gatherings and it's at the Metro Toronto Convention Center, August 22-24, 2008. It's pretty much the most awesome. Buzz Aldrin is going to be there. Guy went to space! He and Edward James Olmos are going to have a boxing match*! You can find out way more than you need to know at the FanExpo website.

But forget about them for a minute, and think about this! We Are Wedges has secured a table in the Indy/Artist alley at Fan Expo. We're not sure what we have to do with race cars, but whatever. You can come meet the Fonz, punch Lex Luther in the face, and fill all your wedge-related needs, in the same weekend!

Stay tuned for information on where to find us in the maze of exhibitors. We'll have some incredibly short-run special show-only items for sale (think big), and the new sea wedges, Octo, Squido, and Sluggo, will be available as well.

* Oh, and by boxing match, we mean, they'll be in the same building at the same time. They could conceivably get in a fight though. I'd be in the mood for a fight if Earth turned out to be a barren radioactive wasteland, too.
