Hey Mysterio,

We are not done announcing guests yet. We wil have Monday guests, so stay tuned!

Hey Mysterio,

There is a Coyotes Hockey Game on Friday and it's a holiday weekend, so everyone is off work from Monday. Many events sell out on that Monday and it's similar to many big shows that have Monday days on other holiday weekends.

Hey Ankurj - Exhibitor List growing daily posted here - http://www.aceuniverse.com/events/long-island/exhibitors.html/

Hey Shad,

The shows with the type of talent and the size and scale we have are expensive to run. Also, up to 2 Kids (10 & Under) are free with a paid adult, a rarity these days. This encourages families, and we have had a lot of success with this in the past. If you look at the vendor list, you will see a robust list, and the programming is pretty exceptional as well.

More will be added with each passing day. The Artist list is very robust as well. We have a special exclusive we will be announcing shortly as well.

Many of these folks do not make many East Coast appearances ad we tailored the Creators with the Celebs. So, you can get a Superman book signed by Dan Jurgens, Brett Breeding, and Henry Cavill. We did this across the board. We have Jenny Frison and Liam Sharp and Wonder Woman. It's a curated experience. And although we are a new company, I have run more shows than any showrunner in the history of Comic Cons, having run over 175 events. So, it's a first time event in name only.

None of these celebs are appearing at anyone else's shows right now, so this is really a once in a lifetime opportunity, especially for Photo Ops. Please note JSA, CGC and CBCS will all be taking submissions and Authenticating, it's a Signature Series dream.

Happy to answer any more questions, but it's going to be a unique, special event.

You can see all the current goodness here - 

Hey Alex,

An earlier start was not possible due to a Barry Manilow concert on Thursday evening. Many Friday shows begin at 3 or 4pm, so not unusual. You want to get people after work.
