Next weekend (May 22-25), I am going to Missoula, Montana.
Why would I ever do a thing like that, you ask?? Because Missoula is host to one of the Best Conventions You May Never Have Heard Of. Seriously. You gotta check out the guest list. There may be a few people you might have heard of… Like:
- Michael A. Stackpole
- Steven Brust
- CJ Cherryh
- Patricia Briggs
- John Kovalic
Yes, you read that right. John Kovalic, of Dork Tower. I get to meet the guy whose illustrations grace the cards of the Munchkin series and whose books are tomes of classic geekery.
How excited am I? Excited enough to drive the 10 hours from Edmonton to Missoula!! If you have the chance to make it out, I would highly recommend it!! I mean, check out these panels!! How awesome is this gonna be?










































Dj Gilcrease Says:
Well I will be there and thank god I read your comic, I had not heard of it and I live in Bozeman Mt just 3 hours away from Missoula. This will give me an excuse to go visit my sister anyways, she lives there.
I will be the one in the tinfoil top hat.
gnrrrg Says:
You still have to make it to Origins next month.
Jen Says:
Yay I can comment again! Where has this been?! Just wanted to say I’ve LOVED the WereGeek Moot storyline. Best one/favorite so far!
Mark Says:
awesome looking con, almost worth driving the combined 3760km there and back especially considering its proximity to the rockies. maybe next year…
sidenote, love the new arc and the Iron Maiden , Dance of Death thing was great.
SurfPenguin Says:
Holy crud, the only way that con could be any more awesome is…well…if I was there!
Melvar Says:
Once again, I am jealous. I can never get to any cons, because they’re off-continent.
Civilisedwookie Says:
University College Cork in Ireland get’s John nearly every year for Warpcon.
Ofgeeks Says:
I won’t be able to make it this year, despite how awesome it looks, and being soo close.
All I can hope is that next year the con is just as great.

Beaten by a wookie… dammit. He’s a nice guy, make sure to bring some blank munchkin cards if you can find them.
dlouquet Says:
Yeah, Missoula can be deceptively cool like that… Of course, being an ex-Missoulian, I may be a bit bias… Now I miss Hoagieville…
Civilisedwookie Says:
@ Arquinsiel
You have to be quick to beat a wookie.
Ofgeeks Says:
@Civilisedwookie + Arquinsiel
It’s not smart to try and beat a Wookie, you might upset them. Noone worries about upsetting a geek, then again geeks don’t pull people’s arms out of their sockets when they lose. Wookies are known to do that.
Cattie Says:
I love Montana!How was the Con?
Seth Says:
Thanks for coming to the con! I had a blast there!
somecallmeTim Says:

the european Says:

theblackgecko Says:
It was great hearing your presentations at the con and getting some awesome artwork. If you come next year, you’ll have to check out the city.
Miss Maia Says:
Thanks for coming to the Con! It was great meeting you. *happy little dance* My first Con ever was so damn cool!
TURTLE Says:
