A boy's first comic books convention

Female Jackie D | Category: Movies • TV

Okay, I'm not into this comic book or Star Wars geekery at all, but I am totally into hot dads and their cute kids. My friend Dr. Scott took his 6-year-old son to his first convention in Detroit. Here's how it went down when they saw Felix Silla, "Kevin Bacon of little people":

While we looked at his pictures, Sun Su asked, “Why is he so small?”

“Because people come in all different sizes, Sun Su,” I answered.

“His face looks like Yoda,” Sun Su innocently observed. I tried not to laugh or make eye contact as we left.

The pictures are awesome, as is Scott's observation on Erik Estrada:

Sorry, but even as a seven-year old in 1977, I knew this guy was just not cool.

Scott, are you familiar with the unit of measure known as the metric shitload?
