Comic-Con 2011 Is Really, Really Sorry

Believe it or not, online registration for Comic-Con 2011 was officially scheduled to begin Monday, November 1st. That’s not a typo; apparently, pent-up demand for the annual orgy of good guys-bad guys pop culture now warrants flicking the switch a full eight months before next summer’s July 21-24 edition.

However, mirroring a bad superhero movie plot twist, evil bad guy Gremlin swooped down on the SDCCI URL sometime yesterday and sabotaged the advance ticketing app. In response, rather than posting the equivalent of a William Shatner SNL “Get a life” retort, organizers of the event addressed the glitch with a full dose of solemnity.

WE’RE SORRY ABOUT THE REGISTRATION

We are really sorry for the problems with registration today.
