Patton Oswalt and Meredith Salenger cozy up at Comic-Con
Newly minted Twitter lovebirds, Patton Oswalt and Meredith Selenger, attended Comic Con this weekend. Patton was there on business as he’s been cast as the voice for Happy in Syfy’s adaptation of the graphic novel with the same name. The casting news was announced during their panel at SDCC. He also moderated the Stranger Things panel. However, as you can see from the Instagram above, both were excited to go. When a fan questioned Meredith’s actual enthusiasm, she listed her credentials for being there:
Hmm… I'm part of the
Star Wars family
Robot chicken family
A Disney Darling
A Buffy ghost
A Tales from the crypt demon
YES I'm excited

And Patton had her back, of course:
OOF! Don't get snippy with Natty. https://t.co/g5tuvT1DPO

You're also the voice of Lashina in the DCverse, who took over the Female Furies after (emits 6 foot streamer of drool, falls asleep) https://t.co/g5tuvT1DPO

Which begs the question – what happened to not responding to the “bitter grub worms”? Anyhoodle, while there, as I mentioned, they hung with the Stranger Things crew about which they gushed:

They walked the floor, and somehow found a way to find romance amongst zombies:

They made time for some fans, and turned things super-cute, per usual:

And, of course, took the opportunity to cuddle for the cameras because what else do you do in front of a giant promo wall?
Hahaha – no seriously, please get a room.
I get it, they’re still in their honeymoon phase. CB likened them to “that couple” on Facebook who can’t stop posting about how amazing the other person is and I agree. When I see their tweets and notice they’ve either tagged or retweeted the other, I skip over it. Some are starting to wonder if this over-the-top affection is genuine. I don’t, I believe they are this giddy. I do worry a little that they might get so caught up in presenting an image as a happy couple that they’ll forget to look at it realistically when the cameras are off. The rush of new love can sometimes act as blinders. I am glad they’re still going strong. I hope that feeling keeps up because usually, when a candle burns this bright, it can flame out.
Patton, however, still has his moments on Twitter so I’m not quite ready to unfollow him yet:
But, seriously, what? You never answered. https://t.co/wl19MZKefQ

Plus, we got this from the Con, which is oddly very satisfying:
