The first (above) is Syfy's new Cafe Diem, based on Eureka, its Comic-Con home away from home at the Hard Rock Hotel.
Next, above, is a banner announcing that bug aliens are not welcome at the pop-culture convention (this, obviously, is a plug for Neill Blomkamp and Peter Jackson's sci-fi drama District 9).
