_{WE Have Avatar Panel News!!! Taken Directly from} AvatarSpirit's news page.

ASN has just received word directly from Bryan Konietzko , one of the creators of Avatar, that there will indeed be an Avatar panel at San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) on Friday night, July 25th. He sent us an announcement that reads as follows:

"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: One week after the last 10 episodes will air on Nickelodeon, the "Avatar: The Last Airbender" panel will be at the San Diego Comic Con on Friday evening, July 25, 7:30-9:15pm in one of the (big!) 2000 person rooms. Please join co-creators Mike DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko and director Joaquim Dos Santos for a screening of the final chapters 320 & 321 and other fun activities (details to follow shortly on Nick.com and the SDCC website). Friday passes are almost sold out*, so please act fast! We really want to see as many fans as possible in the room! On Saturday, Mike and Bryan will do a poster signing (time and details to follow). See you in San Diego!"

This is great news for Avatar fans, but if you haven't bought tickets yet please be aware that the passes for Friday are 89% sold already (click on the SDCC icon at right or the link below for details), and the four day passes are sold out. If you want to go, head over to the SDCC website and get a Friday pass so you can attend*!

**************************************



Also, if you still haven’t made reservations for a hotel room, please do it as soon as possible or find a willing friend to share a room with!


And for those of you that have already gotten a room or found a room mate, Transportation to and from the convention center can be found here at the official Comic-con transportation web page --> [link] and/or [link]
I would recommend using the free shuttle service the SDCCI offers or taking the buss or trolley to and from the convention center. Another alternative is taking the bus or trolley to the local mall (Horton Plaza) and walking down to the Convention center. (It’s about a 10-15 minute walk)


Another helpful web page that Comic-con offers is their, “Staying in San Diego” page for people who are new to the con and to the city of San Diego. Go and check it out! [link]


If you have any questions about the convention or about the city of San Diego, please feel free to contact me by commenting on this journal or noting me here on DA. ^^


Plans about the Avatar meet up/ cosplay photo shoot will be posted as the event gets closer. (Remember that the Comic-con Avatar event will be held on Saturday, July 26, 2008! )
