I will be following Comic-Con news and posting panel updates here in the near future, including dates and locations for Ghost Whisperer, Legend of the Seeker, The Prisoner and True Blood panels. In addition, unconfirmed panels that are expected to appear include 24, Battlestar Galactica, Bones and Glee.

Lost line

The lines will be long, but as I learned last year…they are well worth the wait. The above photo represents only a fraction of the thousands that gathered for the Lost panel; given that this will be the last year for the series at Comic-Con, I will probably secure my spot in line the night before.

If you're interested in frequent updates from San Diego next month, I recommend that you follow me on Twitter; I will be sharing details about my experiences and journey, 140 characters at a time.

  1. Jennifer says:

    Heh. If that line is from last year, it's for HEROES too! I slept in that line last year. For Heroes.

  2. JOpinionated says:

    Correct. I failed to mention that the line consisted of fans from both shows, because the Heroes panel was immediately before the Lost panel.
    :)

  3. Jen says:

    Really! You almost need to sleep there!
    Its really that long, or its just if you want the front seats?

  4. AstroJones says:

    Well Jo, I for one, am glad that we will have you there. There are so many good panels though!! I'm not sure how you ever decided on which ones to attend.

  5. Jessi W says:

    Wow, Jo!!! What a dirty job, but glad someone's going!!! Remember your "Gellin" insoles and you'll be set. That sounds like a whole lot of fun!

  6. Pixie Wings says:

    *is not envious at all*
    *hides glowing green eyes*

    Look forward to reading all about your adventures, Jo!!
    PS: while you are down there, could you maybe ask them why no one ever comes to CALGARY????? ;)

  7. mike says:

  8. Brittany says:

    Hey Jo-I've been trying to tell Jon to get you in touch with me, but I guess you haven't heard about it yet. I just joined the team and will also be at CCI, and am hoping to coordinate coverage with you. Drop me an email at agentthespis AT msn dot com as soon as possible.
