Mark Hamill
Guest of Honor
In a rare convention appearance!

SUNDAY ONLY!

Sorry, but he will NOT be signing any autographs

Whether it's as The Joker in "Batman The Animated Series," Solomon Grundy in "Justice League", The Hobgoblin in " Spider-Man", or his voice roles in "The Incredible Hulk", "The Simpsons", "Freakazoid", "Striperella", "Gen 13", Family Guy", "The Tick", "Fantastic Four", "Time Squad", "Swat Kats", "Space Ghost: Coast to Coast", and so many more it would take pages to list them.
It's almost impossible to watch television or go to the movies without hearing the talented voice or seeing him perform in "The Flash, "Sea Quest", "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back", or any of the huge amount of films and television series he's appeared in. In fact I believe he was in a rather successful series of Sci-Fi films in the late 70's and 80's.

In an extremely rare convention appearance Empire Fan Fest is proud and privileged to present our Guest of Honor, MR. MARK HAMILL.
Mark will be introducing all of us to his directorial debut, "Comic Book The Movie" and then holding a Question and Answer session for a limited number of lucky fans.

This is not an event that happens every day, so please check the Registration Section on the website to find out how you can purchase your advance tickets. Trust us, you'll kick yourself if you miss this one.

T'bone.

I sent you a PM with the with convention promoter's e-mail.

[T-bone]

OK thanks.

[Javen]

I may just go to this. It's not that far from me. Okay, maybe about ten hours.

[RollaFett]

Jersey?! Man, I should probably find a way to check that out. Pretty pathetic if I didn't, considering how close it is.

[T-bone]

I spoke to the promoters and it looks like Jeff Cioletti and myself are going to be guests of the convention! We're going to play our films there and DEBUT part 3 at this convention. This is all tentative of course but it looks good and they're interested in having us do panels too. It should be a fun day and if anyone wants to see SBD3 first, make your way there.

keep eyes on the sites:

See you there if you go.

[brookie]

[maddog62]

Sorry all my NJ friends but it looks like I will be moving to San Bernardino, CA in a couple of weeks. I was looking forward to wearing a Maddog62 T-shirt (so galatic senate people could beat me up in the streats) but now who knows were I will be by then.

[brookie]

OH! THATS too bad, well i wish you all the best for the future style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

Hey - let's play Spot the T'bone!

My pal Spat (who makes a cameo in SBD (http://www.galacticsenate.com/index.php?showtopic=125)) has some pics up from the con. He threw us a link for the film too - coolness. Many thanks to the Spat man and his beautiful assistant Heather - also in the film as the Venus Flytrap looking alien lady thingy...
