On the second day of Comic-Con my true love let me buy⊠a ton of relatively useless but shiny and pretty things. You may have survived day one but nothing can prepare you for Comic-Con Swag Day Two: The Swaggening.

So, letâs prep my wife for the oncoming shortage of shelf space. Yesterday I acquired:
Hasbroâs Transformers Dead Cliffjumper Exclusive (I call him dead Dwayne Johnson, and I can smell what heâs cooking)
Hasbroâs 2012 Exclusive Show Pony, AKA Derpy (I didnât realize she was fashion pony sized. This pleases me)
Hasbroâs G.I. Joe Jinx x 2 (One is the original red ninja, the other from the upcoming flop. I mean film.)
Skelanimals Batman (How did they kill his parents if they were already dead?)
Udonâs Persona 3: Official Design Works (The Persona 4 version is out in a few weeks!)
Play Arts Final Fantasy XIII-2 Lightning (Evan actually brought this from home for me, but I am counting it anyway. Thanks, Evan!)
Fortnite Durr Burger Shirt (Panel Panel Panel SWAG)
Yo Gabba Gabba! Gooble Plush (Be nice to Gooble, and he will be nice to you)
Barbarians: A Handbook for Aspiring Savages (handed to me by Insight Editions, the publisher of the upcoming GIGANTIC Blizzard art book)
That wasnât so bad, right? Completely reasonable purchases, every one. No one could fault me. No one reasonable and attractive.
Today is my third and final day at Comic-Con, and I canât see myself spending too much more on stuff.
But thatâs only because my eyes face outward like a normal person. Should any of the booths have mirrors on them, howeverâŠ
