Weekend Round-Up: Movie and Comic Expo

It's been a pretty busy weekend, but a great one.

Saturday, I spent a bit of time working on inking the next comic book issue and then went to meet the "Cincinnati MovieBears" for a showing of Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials. I admit that I wasn't sure how good this movie was going to be. The first Maze Runner flick was so-so, but the reviews promised a lot of action, which is a good draw for the bears. And it didn't disappoint. I won't run through the story, but it definitely was action-packed. Overall, it was better than the first one and most of the attending crew seemed to enjoy it. After the movie, we went to a restaurant, ate too much greasy food, and ogled the hot bearded guys working or eating the restaurant.

Sunday, Derek (_decibel_) and I braved downtown Cincinnati to go to the Cincinnati Comic Expo. It was rough getting down there as the comic expo was going on, Oktoberfest on Fountain Square was going on, and there was a Cincinnati Bengals game that day too. So parking and traffic was horrible and the parking costs elevated.

However, getting to the Expo after lunch was easy and fun. We walked around to see the stuff available and watch the cosplay folks running around. We got some tee-shirts, comic books, and a poster or action figure or two. Overall, it was entertaining. We starting taking some goofy photos here and there. I posted a few on Flickr.
