The Digital Bits Axanar Panel
Diana worked all con long answering emails about the Indiegogo launch. While I was down sick, she worked tirelessly to make sure fans got the answers they needed.
Diana working late and trying to not disturb me while I was sick.
But the con was a blast, even sick, and we spent lots of time with friends like Mary Anne Butler and Bill Watters.

We hung out with Team Axanar all the time. Basically, we are all friends in the first place, and who would you rather hang out with?

Richard Hatch invited me and Rob Burnett to join the Battlestar Galactica Panel and it was a lot of fun. Sadly, because of timing, it was about 1/4 the size of last year's panel.
First panel of Comic Con
They treat you right at these panels. You get your own name card and a bottle of water when you are a panelist.

We had a wonderful surprise as Axanar super-fan Chris Mongson, sent us a bottle of our favorite type of wine (Sauvignon Blanc). Diana and I felt like movie stars! THANKS CHRIS!
A fine Sauvignon Blanc courtesy of super fan Chris Mongson awaited us in our room!
Cheers Chris!

The Convention Center at dusk
We had a great room, with a wonderful view that was magical at night. We had two great meetings at Comic Con, one which could directly impact the current Indiegogo campaign, and another which could be our first non-Star Trek project.

Despite being sick, it was a good con, and Axanar's first SDCC panel. Thank you to everyone for your support!
