03/02/01
I VISITED THE ORLANDO MEGACON ON FRIDAY, AT IT'S NEW LOCATION, THE ORANGE COUNTY CONVENTION CENTER. GREAT SHOW, BUT I WISH THEY WOULD MOVE THE SHOW BACK TO THE ORLANDO EXPO CENTER .WHILE THERE I SAW THIS GREAT PROP OF A FULL SIZE CAPTAIN AMERICA SHEILD FROM A COMPANY CALLED IMMACULATE CONCEPTIONS. http://www.geocities.com/imconprops  THE COST IS ABOUT $200.00

WHILE THERE I BOUGHT VIDEO COPIES OF CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON, THE TICK, AND THE ANIMATED GEN 13 MOVIE, ALL WORTH FAR MORE THAN THE $40.00 I PAID FOR THEM. CROUCHING TIGER IS GREAT IF YOU DON'T MIND SUBTITLES.  GEN 13 WAS THE A PERFECT COMIC ADAPTATION.  THE TICK WAS PRETTY GOOD, IN A GOOFY KIND OF WAY.
