Do you attend comic conventions?

80 posts in this topic

I've been to Wizard World Chicago 5 times. I loved it, bought a lot of great comics every time, and even got to meet the likes of Kristen Bell and Tricia Helfer. Last year was the first one I hadn't been to in a while, I ended up going to a Stargate convention instead. I'm thinking of going to Megacon this year though.

I've only attended one convention about 15 years ago in Seattle. I purchased passes for the last two SDCC's and could not make eithor of them.

The last time I went to a comic convention (regularly) was in 2005 or 2006. I used to attend SDCC, but once the movie crowds blew up and it became a hassle going around the convention floor I gave up attending.

 

I went to Anime Expo for a few years around the same time, but stopped going when they kept moving the location further (Anaheim, Long Beach, now L.A.), plus I kept getting older and not knowing the shows anymore.

 

I try and pop up at Frank & Sons collectible show in City of Industry once or twice a year just to check up and grab a few cheap reads and finish up my Spectre run.
