Copyrights: All pictures were taken by amateur photographer Bruce Guthrie (me!) who retains copyright on them. Free for non-commercial use with attribution. See the [Creative Commons] definition of what this means. "Photos (c) Bruce Guthrie" is fine for attribution. (Commercial use folks including AI scrapers can of course contact me.) Feel free to use in publications and pages with attribution but you don't have permission to sell the photos themselves. A free copy of any printed publication using any photographs is requested. Descriptive text, if any, is from a mixture of sources, quite frequently from signs at the location or from official web sites; copyrights, if any, are retained by their original owners.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Help? The Medium (Email) links are for screen viewing and emailing. You'll want bigger sizes for printing. [Click here for additional help]

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. SDCC_060719_005.JPG: Even Imperial Guards wait in line with everyone else!
2. SDCC_060719_019.JPG: I haven't a clue who the kids were but they enjoyed posing for the camera
3. SDCC_060719_030.JPG: This is the freebie table. We waited in line for 30 minutes to reach it. It was continually restocked with miscellaneous junk throughout the show.
4. SDCC_060719_058.JPG: The symbol of the show used to be a macaw, who's still seen in some places but they were using this eye for this show. For some reason, it reminds me both of Will Eisner (a famous cartoonist for the series The Spirit) as well as the all-seeing eye in the Daffy Duck/Porky Pig cartoon "Duck Dodgers in the 24-1/2 Century."
5. SDCC_060719_087.JPG: Lines for everything! Over 100,000 people were expected for this convention.
6. SDCC_060719_105.JPG: This room, shown still under preparation, would become room 20, where some of the largest sessions were held. The really huge ones were held in Exhibit Hall H.
7. SDCC_060719_135.JPG: Did I mention the lines?
8. SDCC_060719_152.JPG: They sell this outfit at Costco because of the "Superman Returns" movie. It comes complete with the fake abs. Having said that, this was the only person I remember seeing dressed as Superman.
9. SDCC_060719_162.JPG: There were several Pirates of the Caribbean people but this was one of the best.
10. SDCC_060719_164.JPG: Welcome to the DC booth in the exhibit hall. Their booth was one of the biggest in the show -- bigger certainly than Marvel's -- and they had an aggressive signing schedule which was nice.
11. SDCC_060719_223.JPG: Due to the size of this convention, there were a lot of press folks here for it. Even the Washington Post covered the event. This guy was being interviewed because he had the entire DC universe on his shirt.
12. SDCC_060719_243.JPG: The exhibit hall included gaming tables where people could try out the new video games.
13. SDCC_060719_252.JPG: Batman made out of Lego pieces
14. SDCC_060719_270.JPG: Spongebob Squarepants made out of Lego pieces
15. SDCC_060719_274.JPG: There were lines where people waited to buy collectible toys. I was amazed at what attracted lines.
16. SDCC_060719_289.JPG: A tasteful exhibit booth. You reached into the urinal to grab your free trading cards.
17. SDCC_060719_321.JPG: More collectibles
18. SDCC_060719_342.JPG: The "Snakes on a Plane" booth had a lot of foot traffic. If you stood in line to get inside, you got to see a trailer from the movie. Stand in line to see an ad...
19. SDCC_060719_343.JPG: The Sci Fi Channel had the coolest booth. It was very reminiscent of the water creature from "Abyss."
20. SDCC_060720_034.JPG: Stewie and Brian from "Family Guy"
21. SDCC_060720_060.JPG: "Snakes on a Plane" advertisement: South Pacific Airlines Safety Instructions Here are some safety tips in the event of snakes on a plane. Your snack tray may be used to trap and confuse snakes. Please be cautious with small pets, as they may attract hungry snakes. Removable seat cushion can double as a snake deterrent device. Please proceed cautiously when stepping over dead bodies. Fire extinguishers located at exits can also ward off aggressive snakes. If you suffer from a snake bite, please notify the nearest flight attendant. Oxygen masks can be used in the event of panic attacks. In the event of a snake evacuation, the emergency slice will be deployed for safe exit.
Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
Connection Not Secure messages? Those warnings you get from your browser about this site not having secure connections worry some people.
