Here are some pics from CONcat 99. Click the photos to see larger version.

This is a group shot from the Comic Book Defense Fund Auction held Sunday morning at 10. There are bidders here from New York, Los Angeles, Australia, Knoxville and the Neverlands.(Er-Netherlands.)

 

Hello, This is Patty Pope.
I won a dinner with Neil Gaiman from ConCat. I didn't even know there was a contest. It seems they drew names from those who had perregistered and had picked up their badges. Jameson picked mine up for me and brought it to me at work. I had been working with another woman who was going to the con so they knew to call me at home. I got the message at 6:05 that said to be there at 6:00. Fortunately, I live 5 minutes from the Hyatt.  I made it there and tracked them down in time to order. Wow! The conversation was mostly about the comic book industry, so I couldn't contribute much. I did learn that Neil has beautiful eyes and eats very fast!

 

Lisa Snellings, Charles Vess, Jameson Parker, Neil Gaiman At signing in Dealer Room. Gaiman is signing a series of prints (from Stardust, I think) by Vess that will be available in a boxed set. See http://www.greenmanpress.com for details.

 

Signed "Gnome Alone...Neil Gaiman"

 

"Neil Malkovich" enjoyed the Con. He met some girls and enjoyed the view of Knoxville, TN from the Hyatt's elevator.
