No one mentioned Dr. Who yet?

And is that Molly from Runaways in the bunny hat?

I also feel like I should know the guy in the Manchester United hoodie... :hm:

There is one angry-looking black kid behind the booth.

There is also one of the guys from Kickass I think.

Wonder if Valiant will have those pillars as fixtures. On Wondercon and LBCC it's usually just the standard table, pipe and drape.

I'd hardly call the Doctor an "easter egg"; I mean, he's right out there in the front.

That could be Bloodshot in the background in between green Superman and the dude with the reverse mohawk.

What are the books on the table? Is that an Archer and Armstrong Deluxe edition? Or is it the X-O special edition? Definitely looks like a big HC!

Standing behind Armstrong, is that Will Smith and his son Jayden Smith from the embarrassing flop of a disappointing film called "After Earth"?

That's the cover artist, Clayton Henry, and I'm assuming his son.

I saw one suggestions that if you invert the colors on the image (using photo-editing software like Photoshop) green Solar is properly colored. Doesn't exactly work out that way, but he's redder.
