[DK][UPDATE] WhySoSerious (ComicCon 2007)
Could it be... the JOKER?

Received at a concession stand at the San Diego Comic-Con - a mysterious dollar bill which had an overlay of George with strangely odd blacked-out eyes, and scribbled red lips - and the words "WHYSOSERIOUS" where "In God We Trust" usually appears.

Picture here (better picture later):

Leads to www.whysoserious.com, where a countdown that reaches "0" at 10AM PDT is displayed and lat/long coordinates leading to a park right outside the San Diego Convention Center:

Post yer spec here, and stay tuned for 10AM PDT tomorrow!


Edit: Moved and retagged. -SpaceBass

The fact that it says "have a friend from the internet ready" on the site makes me think this is more ARG related than something relating to Comic Con (the WB presentation is at 10:30 so it's only a 1/2 hour later). I can only imagine if they had Ledger show up in full on Joker makeup and whatnot, too bad it's all the way across the country from me...

Well, we'll be here tomorrow for any support we can offer, Celina! Smile

(Looks like your Netcast wish of an ARG launch at Comic-Con may have come true.) Wink

Actually no, that's a swf file.
The pic under it is named Sammy, although I did ignore uncle sam and that is probably what they are referring to.
I was looking for something/someone in the batman world.

I saw them talk about this on G4 towards the end of last night's coverage.

Damn, I knew I should have gone this year.


Ah well, I'm hoping that G4 decides to investigate over at the meeting point.
It'd be awesome to see what happens since I can't go.

OH SNAP UPDATE!

www.whysoserious.com

Scroll to the bottom. If this is an ARG, it looks more like a one day treasure hunt.

EDIT: If not, maybe only a select amount of people will move on to the next part...
