Greetings. My name is Mark and I reside in California. I had the pleasure of meeting some of you this past weekend at Dragon-con. I was dressed as the Cobra version of Storm Shadow and a royal blue viper. To put the Joe forces at ease, I also hope to do a GI Joe version of Storm Shadow or possibly Tunnel Rat. I already have one friend of mine who does Snake-eyes. Some of my other friends who are 501st Legion and Cobra costumers are also thinking of GI Joe outfits. Some examples include Gen. Hawk and Sgt. Flash.
So without further delay, here is some of my content.
Joes and Cobras square off at the Friday photo shoot.
A friend of mine as Snake-Eyes and I pose with Ray Park.
GI Joe and Cobra shoot from Sunday (first time that I see the Joes outnumber us).
Three Cobra Ninjas taking on the martial arts forces of GI Joe.
Some various Joe group shots from the Sunday shoot.
For more pictures and some video, please check out my Flickr set - 2008-08-28 to 2008-09-02 -2008 Dragon-con.
I hope to see many of you at future conventions. While it is far away, I hope that some of you will consider attending the San Diego Comic-con in 2009. This year's convention had over 125,000 attendees and was completely sold out. I can say that the convention attendees, Hasbro and folks, like GI Joe writer, Larry Homa, loved the Cobra outfits. I am sure that they would love to see the forces of GI Joe in mass especially with the new movie and animated series coming out next year. Here are some pictures from that event.
Cobra soldier, Viper, Larry Hama (GI Joe writer and effectively the creater of what is curretly know as GI Joe), myself (Storm Shadow) and a friend of mine as Snake-Eyes. Hama got out from his desk where he was signing autographs to take pictures with us.
My friend and I with Ray Park at the Hasbro booth
I serves as escort and handler with Cobra costumers after the Hasbro/Paramount GI Joe panel.
