Armageddon 2011 was in Auckland for the weekend. It was the equivalent of comic-con in US. This year we decided to dress up, and we couldn't think of better characters than Sam and Dean Winchester from the "Supernatural" tv show.We went to the "crazy chinese store" in town to source for our props - plastic guns and knives. We made our own EMF detector, and brought along house salt to ward off ghosts and evil!...We even had the "preventing-demons-from-possessing-you" tattoo. We think our characters were not too shabby as there were people who recognized what we were dressed up as, and even asked to pose with them for photographs!
The event was not as crowded as last year, and there wasn't as many people who were dressed up. This might probably due to that we went there on a Sunday instead of Saturday. There was the usual - comics, games, wrestling shows, alcohol station, food and trading cards. The reason we chose Sunday was to attend Mark Sheppard aka Crowely from Supernatural. He is exactly what we expected - humorous, sarcastic and talented.
Until next year... or when we are rich enough to attend comic-con. In the meantime, for those who never watch Supernatural, here is small preview (gag reel) of the a short "eye of the tiger" song by Dean Winchester. Happy Halloween!
