Dragon*Con Announces Joss Whedon Art Contest

Are you a lover of all things Joss Whedon? Do you sleep with a stake under your pillow? Do you have a flair for the artistic? If so, you’re just what the Whedon Universe event track at Dragon*Con is looking for. They’ve announced a fan art contest that will be judged by votes at the convention, and you’ll have a chance of winning some surely spiffy but as-of-yet unspecified prizes.

The full details are over at the WU website: WhedonUniverse

Vulkon Orlando: Summer 2008 Show

Last weekend I was at Vulkon’s summer show in Orlando, FL. Vulkon puts on events throughout the year, and this was the first one I’ve attended. This event had a strong Star Trek theme with guests like Jonathan Frakes and Nana Visitor in attendance. It ran from Friday through Sunday, and I was able to speak with Erick Avari, Cirroc Lofton, and Aron Eisenberg. I’ll be posting those interviews over the next few days, and I’ll also be updating with some collectibles-related interviews over at www.Mechazilla.com, so keep an eye on both sites. For now, here’s a look at some of the sights and folks I encountered over the weekend.

They have a very cool roster of Star Trek guests lined up, including Jonathan Frakes and Nana Visitor, as well as Heroes’ Erick Avari and more.
