London Film and Comic Con – Earl’s Court – September 2007
By friendlyskies • Dec 7th, 2007 • Category: Events, NewsThis was the first one of these shows that I have attended, having missed the 2004 show which featured several of the stars from Aliens.
I was please to meet Ralph Brown (Aaron in Alien 3) here again as well as Billy West (voice actor on Futurama). Billy was great and actually recorded some sound Bytes for the UKCM in the voices of Zapp Brannigan, Doctor Zoidberg and Prof Farnsworth. You can see a video of this on my own website.
I had a great time at the show and it was the debut of my Predator costume. Who at some point was dubbed Preston, to go with Pug 50’s Abe the Alien. Not sure I like it but it would seem I am stuck with it LOL.
Note from Mantroon: Abe and Preston are the names of characters from the popular webcomic Alien Loves Predator, that has Abe the Alien and Preston the Predator sharing an apartment (or flat to the Brits) in downtown New York. Jesus has also shared an apartment with Abe and Preston when he played for the New York Yankees baseball team – check out more at www.alienlovespredator.com
There were not as many marines at this show since it was so close to our last one (only a week later) but we had all the essential elements there. Three marines, 1 Alien and a Pred. The crowd seemed to like us and moving anywhere was difficult without having to stop for a ton of photos. I now know what it was like for Pug at all the previous shows. The difference being he LOVES the cameras.
Anyway, a good show all in all and I imagine a definite for next year.
