CON NEWS - full wrapup to come but this first

I saw the FUNNIEST THING EVER

We went to the Vertigo panel, and you know that scene in Chasing Amy with the 'What's a Nubian?' question - well, it was like that but without gunfire.

Panel opens - 45 seconds pass
Asian guy in the front row jumps up and starts SCREAMING at BKV because he's racist against Asians. I shit you not. After about 5 minutes of screaming 'Yellow Pride' and calling Karen Berger(I think) all kinds of filthy names, he was dragged out by 8, yes 8, security dorks.

At this point I say real loud(I'm in the first row), Mr Vaughn, What's a Nubian?

The rest of the panel was wicked ****ed because nobody could really get their bearings after that.

It was stunning

Go to the Big Town and already misbehaving, eh Fred? Just remember that you are representing all of us at this big time Con of yours. That's right, mister. You ARE iFanboy Forums at the NYCC - so act like it... and ask even more weird ass questions of those comics guys. Do us proud, man.

By the way, did you dress up? Aquaman? Sponge Bob? Danny Bonaduce?
