It took many years, but looks like we're getting Skottie Young as a guest for NYCC.

So Mark Hamill is going to NYCC, according to the NYCC Twitter page. Now the main thing that is surprising, they say it will be his last, "autographing convention appearance in the US...like ever." If so, why the change? Something happened? The stress going to these? Well thank goodness I met him during SWCA. He even told me a personal story on how he got his first name. Will never forget that one!

I hope her autographs aren't as much as they were at Celebration.

Karen Gillian cancels so much I have no faith!   The volunteers at Denver Comic Con said she was horrible to deal with :(

Well she does seem to be rescheduling for cons she canceled last year because of Jumanji, i.e. DragonCon and NYCC.  Maybe she makes sure she makes it to those since she canceled last year?  Although if she gets another acting gig, or Avengers 4 starts shooting her scenes, I'm sure she'll be canceling again.

I heard a rumor she is moving to NYC so she will be close. Personally, I would not blame her if she has a filming obligation - as fans we want her onscreen after all.

I think she said on Twitter that she's already moved.
