Kick Ass mustang at Wizard World Comic Con Anaheim



Greeting us as we entered the exhibit floor was the mustang from Kick Ass. The car looks awesome and we could only wish that we could take it for a spin.

Be sure to check out Kick Ass in theaters now and watch the bad guys get their assess handed to them by some regular people who decide that being a superhero is more about kicking ass than anything else.



Bill Moseley at Wizard World Comic Con Anaheim



Actor who starred in Rob Zombie's "Haunted World of El Superbeasto", "Devil's Rejects", "House of 1000 Corpses" and "Halloween". He also played Johnnie in 1990 remake of "Night of the Living Dead".

He is currently filming "Night of the Living Dead: Origins". We are looking forward to this film... zombies in 3D.

Bill became famous after his role in "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2" as Chop Top.



Back to the Future car at Wizard World Comic Con Anaheim



Back to the Future was a fun time travel movie that spawned 2 sequels and has legions of fans worldwide. Starring Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd and this famous DeLorean, "Back to the Future" is still popular and is remembered fondly by most people who have seen it.



The presenters if the car offered photos of you sitting in the car for $20.



William Shatner at Wizard World Comic Con Anaheim



William Shatner made a special appearance and if you were lucky enough to be in the limited line, you could pay for an autograph and a pic with "Captain Kirk". Mr Shatner arrived with a security detail and took his seat next to Brent Spiner (Data).

We took this shot from a distance because security had the area closed off to ensure that the people in line were able to get their signature and photo quickly and efficiently. Hats off to the crew for handling this event smoothly.

We spoke to a few people who had stood in the line and they were happy with the experience, although some complained about the $75 fee. (most of the other celebrities only charged $20-$30). Some fans brought their own collectibles to get signed while others purchased stock photos and got them signed.


Mad Max car at Wizard World Comic Con Anaheim



Mad Max was released back in 1979 and starred Mel Gibson. This post-apocalyptic film takes a look at society breaking down and the ensuing chaos. That chaos included several car chases, featuring this Ford Falcon Interceptor.

It was pretty cool to see the car and brought back fond memories of our first experience with Mad Max, one of the films responsible for the expanding the post-apocalyptic genre.

Too bad test drives weren't available.
