My favorite was the Brady Bunch cover for Archer and Armstrong.

wow ... i didn't know it was possible to fit so much awesome in one post.

Thank you so much Elery for posting these pics.

I especially love both these covers but in particular the Bullock cover is magnificent work of art. Beautiful.

I didn't notice the first time I saw that first pic, but it does appear to show Flamingo ... flying, correct?

Flamingo flying was asked by Dr Solar at the Q&A. Dysarth mentioned that she cannot fly. Flamingo is still learning on what her Psiot abilities are. Dysart said that flying would make her too powerful.

Okay then, I guess to get that high up, she must just be 'thrusting' really really hard, eh? :twisted: :thumb:

If Flamingo could fly, then Faith would seem redundant and kind of useless.

Not if she has to be on fire to do so. Would kinda suck for anybody she had to carry or catch. But in general I agree that having her fly would make her too powerful for now at least. Just bugs me that they drew that exact thing happening in that picture if it's an ability she's not supposed to have. They could totally put Peter up there flying if they needed another flyer besides Faith.

My pleasure! I took photos of the panel because I wanted to share it with everyone who could not make it.

As I was busy taking photos, I did not get a chance to take any notes. (Not that I am a good note taker anyway)

That being said, while I was taking photos.. (I was moving around the room quite a bit) one of the Wondercon organizers said that I am not allowed to take photos standing up and moving around because its a fire hazard :o something to do with the fire marshal.

She then saw that I was wearing a Red logo VEI shirt and said... Nevermind... You are with Valiant. (working for Valiant) So she let me continue what I was doing. :lol:

I neither confirmed nor denied it... so :thumb:

:D I hope these photos are adequate for Elveen since he couldn't make it to the panel.

Unfortunately, I didn't get it recorded.

I was stretched so thin as it was over the weekend, I couldn't get to this. There are tons of recaps and live feeds of it though, so all the info is out there.

We'll have better than that though, we recorded a round table discussion with all of the folks from the panel on Saturday night, I think you will all enjoy that episode!

No worries. I thought you record and document everything.... .. :lol:

When I was at the panel taking photos... I actualy witnessed Albert Ching from Newsarama... writing all the details of the panel.. It was quite amazing.

Next panel, I will try to re-cord audio.. I'm not sure what is more imporant to VFmembers.... Audio recording, Photos or Video.

Looks like Gilad is still *SQUEE* at Aric for jumping the gun on that one battle back in 410 AD and getting so many people killed. I bet Gilad was insturmental in helping his uncle Alaric in getting into and sacking Rome later!

Those are X-O issues published in Brazil, VEI announced this also at the panel. Dinesh said that they will be made available to American Valiant collectors in someway.
