It wasn’t that long ago that Eva Mendes was checking into rehab.

This week she was attending New York’s Comic Con to promote her new movie, The Spirit, directed by famed comic director Frank Miller.

My friends and I were at New York Comic Con Saturday, and one of the big attractions was the afternoon appearance by Eva Mendes and Frank Miller to promote their upcoming movie “The Spirit,” in which she stars and which he directs. People were lined up for hours for their 5:30 signing, many clutching comic books or other memorabilia they hoped to get autographed. But almost immediately upon arriving at the signing table, Mendes evidently freaked out and abruptly left. Frank Miller also chose to leave the table and hide in the curtained-off waiting area immediately behind the table, signing only posters for The Spirit, which were then carried out to the less-than-pleased fans waiting in line…. The scene dissolved into relative chaos, with people receiving signed posters from Miller and nothing from Mendes, who as far as anyone could tell simply left the convention altogether. 

Way to go Eva, you pretty much pissed off the only demographic interested in seeing your movie about comics. Sure, they are freaks, but never underestimate the power of obsession. They will find you. In fact, I bet they are already pinning up newspaper clipping revolving around your life.

Not a good idea. More pictures of Eva Mendes and Frank Miller, while they were actually not in hiding.
