Dragoncon 2012 successes

Dean Cain
in-person success
9/2/2012

Comments: When I was in college, "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman" was one of my favorite shows. I was completely smitten with Dean Cain. I loved, loved, loved Superman and Dean Cain. I never thought I'd have the chance to meet him, but I finally, actually met him at Dragoncon this year. I suspect I blabbered like a fool, and the first words out of my mouth were "Can I please hug you?" He happily obliged, and we had a very nice, brief conversation in which I confided that I went into newspaper reporting in part because of Lois and Clark, hence this inscription. So glad I got to meet him!

Gillian Anderson
in-person success
9/2/2012

Comments: When I was in college, my favorite show was absolutely "The X-Files" and I've seen every episode, multiple times. Again, I never imagined I would ever get to meet agents Mulder or Scully, but thanks to Dragoncon, I was able to meet Gillian Anderson (Scully)! Dream come true. If only David Duchovny had been there. Maybe someday.

Felicia Day
in-person success
9/2/2012

Comments: I have to admit I didn't discover how awesome Felicia Day was until I went to a Buffy panel at Dragoncon 2011 and found her to be one of the most entertaining celebs there. Curious, I watched "The Guild" and was hooked. Mostly, I greatly admire all that Felicia has accomplished -- she's doing most of the things I really want to do in life: writing and producing her own shows over at Geek and Sundry. I love watching The Flog there. I'm convinced Felicia Day and I should be BFFs. She was probably the nicest celeb I met at Dragoncon this year.
