Wonder what would happen if the creator of the Archangels comic was a guest at the convention

What do they have against baseball?
Isn't obvious? The bat is obviously a demonic phallic symbol. Then, there is all the ball handling...

Superman and Spiderman have contributed a lot more to this world than these clowns have.

I really, really think Phelps and the gang are going to be disappointed with this latest outing.
Most of these venues will look on them as part of the entertainment and have a great laugh.
I can just see Lady GaGa, Justin Bieber and Adam Lambert posing for pictures in front of ol’ Fred and mocking him.
The baseball fans will pelt him and his with hot dogs and beer.
Joel Osteen might even invite him on stage for yuks.
The comic fanboys will really have blast.
I don’t think his twisted formula will work outside of the context of funerals. Especially not with people as outrageous as he is.

It’s not a cult or a church. It is a bunch of attention whores using tax loopholes. Why anyone gives them any media at all is beyond me. Let them protest and ignore them.

LOL!
With luck, we’ll soon be hearing of their protesting at a Star Trek convention resulting in someone getting a Bat’leth rammed up their a**es!

You may be right. GIVE him 3 minutes of fame and he won’t be able to milk it for the full 15.
LOL at someone is far more effective than getting mad.

The folks at the ComiCon may mistake the Phelps Pholks for a band of intense cosplay enthusiasts.

“WBC to picket the teen pop star Justin Bieber”
Not all bad, then.
Anyway, protesting Comic-con is pointless, really. Counter protesting is even more pointless, what is to gain by trolling trolls?

That might be a fun interaction to watch. We were in SD one year when Comic-Con was going on. Saw lots of *very* interesting characters!

To be honest I’d reconsider my opposition to Al Qaeda if they took an anti Bieber stance.

To: tlb
Not much you can say or do about asshats that have a fetish for negative attention. I’ll give this guy props, most trolls of his ilk skulk around internet message boards constantly getting kicked off and reapplying under new usernames. It’s a whole other level to travel the country doing it in person. I won’t feel sorry for him when he gets the beating he deserves.
To: skintight buffoonery
Sorry, but I’m going to have to defend Bieber. I saw an interview with him, his mom, and his grandparents. I was impressed with all of them. They are a Christian family, proud of their faith, and his mom pays close attention to his behavior.
