It’s another Wednesday Comics picks appearing on Thursday. I know, I’m sorry. If I have any excuse it’s because I was busy reading a book I want to talk about today, Batman R.I.P.
Batman R.I.P. to most people is old news, but I’m always in a state of playing catch-up so for me, it’s new. It’s also probably the major contributing factor to my being totally lost while reading this book. From start to finish I was so very confused. Confused about characters, their motivations, the backstory, and the significance of the events unfolding before me. It’s with that in mind that I will be writing this review with a lot more aid from the DC Wiki than the book itself. Even then, I’m sure I’m still missing some major points.

I promised in my C2E2 Cosplayers Photos post that I’d post more on C2E2. Well I’m finally getting around to doing so. This post is a little showcase for some of the swag I toted back from the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo.
This was the first con where I really made an attempt to get some signatures from writers and artists that I really like. I was very lucky to get Geoff Johns and Alex Ross to sign several of my things. I tried more than once to meet up with Jim Lee but has bad timing for his scheduled times and was unable to find him elsewhere. I did manage a few other signed items by other people too, but I’ll get into more detail on that and the items when I show them below.

The Blackest Night is over and the Brightest Day is just beginning. AND! It’s Wednesday! Time for new comics picks.
When I was at C2E2 I attended several DC Universe panels with the amazing staff of DC. A lot of focus was put on the new direction of the DCU into the “Brightest Day”. For a lot of my favorite characters, this is spelling out big things. Amongst the many things talked about, the New Guardians are here to stay (at least for now), and there will be a whole new Green Lantern series, Green Lantern: Emerald Warriors.

Last Wednesday I was unable to post a Pete’s Wednesday Comics Picks because I was flying to Chicago to attend the first ever Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo (C2E2). But now I’m back and I come bearing photos!
The show was a lot of fun and there were a whole lot of very talented people who created and wore some of the best cosplay outfits I’ve seen in a while. I plan on posting more information all throughout the week but my first post is dedicated to those folks who stopped and let me take their picture. So as a special edition of Pete’s Wednesday Comics Picks, I am picking out some of my top favorite cosplayers of C2E2.
I will also link to all the photos below at the end of the post. If you find yourself or a friend in one of the photos, please comment and let me know what you think! If you find any where I didn’t know the character as well, please let me know who they are.

This is a quick post for all you awesome people I met and photographed at the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo this past weekend. You’ll remember me as the crazy guy with the photo umbrella strapped to my back.
I captured several hundred shots of people in amazing costumes, and images around the show floor. Well done to you all for those amazing outfits! I hope you enjoyed the con as much as I did.
I’m currently working very hard on sorting through and touching up everything. Please check back within the next few days and I’ll hopefully be able to get them ready and posted.
In the meantime, feel free to check out the rest of my blog. Of particular interest to most of you will be my Pete’s Wednesday Comics Picks posts.
Please also check back for more C2E2 posts throughout the week and maybe even a special podcast episode.
