Oh my gosh! Where did you get this? So sad, great picture. :(

From:

I think it's out of the Torchwood Magazine from right after CoE.

From:

Oh ok, it's really good. I would like to collect some of the TW magazines just haven't done it yet, I guess off ebay.

I love your Ianto icon. :) Can I steel it and credit of course?

I have some of the TW magazines, but I'm not sure if I have that issue. The ones I'd like to have, and don't are the ones with Gareth's comic strip in them. I've gotten the magazines from a variety of places--friends, conventions, and ebay.

Heh, that's one not only did I not make, but I don't know who did. In my userpics I put, "Ianto Jones from ??? If you know the maker let me know." ;)

From:

Oh great! thanks! I will put "by unknown" I don't know who made it either. :)

Oh I forgot, I went to some conventions a long time ago before probably TW was around yet. I went for the Star Trek conventions with my future husband. lol! I wish I had more X-Files stuff, that would have been fun to buy there.

You're welcome!

I don't know for certain, but I think the first Torchwood convention was the first Hub in 2008. I haven't been to Hub. I don't live on the right side of the Atlantic for that. I went to Torchsong in Chicago in 2009, and some other cons here in the US that Gareth has been to. I'd still like to get to meet John at a convention, but I couldn't go to SDCC and he hasn't tried to do a con closer since Torchsong.

From:

It was a miniposter in the Torchwood magazine.

From:

It's Issue 17, I just had to look up a Rusty quote from it.

From:

LOL I've got that issue, and I've got less than half a dozen issues. I've #1, 3, 5, 14 and 17. :D

From:

I went to conventions in 96 though maybe 99 or 2000. Not sure. I'm old. LOL!

From:

Thank you ericadawn16! I wish I had money. So much TW stuff I would love to collect, not to mention the "Dr. Who" shows when Jack joined. :D

From:

Must go ahunting! :D

Most are in California aren't they? I live WAY too far away to go to the TW cons. I have only gone as far as Atlanta GA. to see cons. They were fun. :) I'm down south in TN.

From:

Thanks! :D

From:

Pfft. The first convention I went to was a little local comic book convention put on in Bangor, Maine in 1986. I've been to different kinds of conventions in Bangor, ME, Portland, ME, Boston, MA, Washington, D.C., Chicago, IL and on the one occasion when I was able to get out of the country to Leeds, England. ;)

Not in my experience. The cities I've seen Gareth in are Chicago and Boston. I know he's also been to Dragon*Con in Atlanta repeatedly, and a con in Florida. I forget the name of it at the moment.

Conventions are all over. What varies is their size and focus. The first con I saw Gareth at, Torchsong, was a little convention that John got put together himself. The second con I saw Gareth at was a regular one in Boston called "The New England Fan Experience." They had multiple tracks, and Gareth was just one guest for the "Sci-Fi" track. The third con I saw Gareth at was "Chicago TARDIS" a big regular Doctor Who convention. They had guests from Classic Who, New Who, The Sarah Jane Adventures and Torchwood. You've just gotta know where to look.

I live WAY too far away to go to the TW cons.

Heh, well the only strictly Torchwood cons I know about are the Hub ones in the UK. It's just even John's done more than one of the BIG multi-track cons. He's not only done San Diego Comic Con here in the US, but he's also done Collectormania in the UK.

I have only gone as far as Atlanta GA. to see cons. They were fun. :)

Ah. Like I said, Gareth has done Dragon*Con in Atlanta more than once. Heck, he's not only going to be there this year, but they're going to have a special event where he does live commentary for one of the episodes. It's just the only way he could be any farther down I-95 from me is if he was doing the Florida con again.

I'm down south in TN.

Dragon*Con is definitely a shorter drive for you.

Actually, I only have two or three issues myself...and never did find that last one.

From:

and a con in Florida.

MegaCon in Orlando although I haven't actually been since I met Kevin Smith in 2002.

From:

Heh. I don't know if Gareth has done one called MegaCon, but the one I was thinking of was called Hurricane Who. It was Doctor Who based, like Chicago TARDIS is. That's one of the things about cons. A good sized city can sustain more than one kind. I know Boston has at least two. It's got both The New England Fan Experience, and Anime Boston. Maybe Orlando has more than one?
