OK, no, really. The last SDCC2006 post for at least 3 days.



I'm not going to reveal which of my spies handed me the drinks list for Hasbro's 2006 Vault Party that was held in San Diego during the con, an event held only to show off some of the new Marvel-based toys. There's certainly no tacit understanding that the entire endeavour is held so that comics people and toy people can get 'faced together and try to hit on the same three scared women from marketing.

I'm just going to make a few notes.
  1. The "Silver Surfer" just sounds nasty to me and I've been known to drink rubbing alcohol with a bit of Lemon Pledge in a pinch.
  2. "Comicazee?" Seriously, people. Between that and "Marvelita," you're not even trying.
  3. "The Fantastic Four" better give me some kind of superpowers with all the goddamn ingredients that are listed.
  4. Easiest drink ever: Molson's, cold mug. Call it a "Hey, Bub."
  5. You've got a Russian Spy called The Black Widow and vodka - you couldn't do some math here?
  6. There's not a single drink named after Iron Man or his alter ego? Idiots.
