Reminder: Comic-Con Badges Go On Sale This Morning

Heidi MacDonald talks about the sale of Comic-Con International badges here.

The keys are 1) it will take some time, 2) it has the potential for being error-filled because of high demand, 3) you need to have a Member ID to even participate.

Good luck to all badge purchasers. With demand what it is and the limits to membership being what they are I'm pretty sure some frustration from somebody somewhere is going to be inevitable. There are likely going to be people who say, "I'm just going to do [My Local Con]," which I think is a perfectly rational response, or "Why can't it be like it was in [insert year here]?" which is only a little weird in that I bet building a time machine is a lot more difficult than getting badges to a high-demand funnybook convention.

Update: And... scene.
