COLLECTOR'S SHOWDOWN - CANADIAN PREMIERE
Starting Wednesday, October 4 @ 8PM (ET)
Millions of Canadians collect something – and in the process, become
quite knowledgeable about their chosen passion. But just how much do
they know? Collector Showdown takes two people who have amassed
collections in the same or similar areas, and asks them to prove just
how far their expertise goes in a unique format that any collector - or
non-collector - will enjoy. In the end, only one of them will have
bragging rights and a result that will be fun, unusual - and totally
unexpected.

George Perez Sketch- Thanks

(excerpt)
Last week at the real Toronto Comicon I was part of a show called
Collector's showdown. I probably shouldn't tell you if I won or lost but
at the end of the show I received a sketch of Superman by George Perez
and personally signed with a message by the man himself. It is
beautiful. Mr. Perez was extremely patient as I went completely 15 year
old girl Beatlemania style on him. He signed my New Teen Titans Number
1... Crisis number 1 and the hardcover version (both on the inside and
on the dust jacket). He then listened to me prattle on for 20 minutes
about what a fan I was... and the usual stuff. I just wanted to say how
much I appreciated his graciousness and patience. He made me feel like I
mattered and shared some good stories. So thank-you Mr. Perez for a
great experience. For those interested the show is tentatively called
The Collector's Showdown.. it should air in Canada in July on
HiFidelitytv.. they are looking to sell it in the USA.
From Ilke Hincer
While at the Paradise con, George took the time to appear on a scripted
television program called Collector Showdown. From what I could gather,
George (playing himself) picks the winner of a drawing contest. Later,
the winner of the contest is awarded a shopping spree at the con, while
the consolation prize for the loser ends up being...a gorgeous Superman
sketch by George. Oh, the irony!
The 'set' for the show was the convention floor, and George presented
the Superman sketch to the 'loser' of the contest in front of the ACTOR
booth.
George's appearance on Collector Showdown is expected to air on the high definition channel Treasure HD in July.
Here's some info on Treasure HD, excerpted from
www.bce.ca:
