FAN EXPO VANCOUVER™ launches April 21-22 2012 at the Vancouver Convention Centre

[Kevin Boyd]

We are making a big announcement THURSDAY at some point with more celebs and comic guests.

 

 

[TheLiamSturgess]

 

Will you be there, by the way?

[Kevin Boyd]

Looks like I will be there, yup.

[TheLiamSturgess]

Hope to see you!

[Kevin Boyd]

This will be my first time in Vancouver since my family and I moved back to Toronto in 1977. Looking forward to it.

[TheLiamSturgess]

Well, I'm sure it will be a fun time. It will give me a chance to explore that area of the city better too. Ever notice how when you live in an area, it's harder to really appreciate it?

You will not recognize the downtown Vancouver core except for the toothless hobos that are still there from the 1970s. 3 monorail lines , seabus/ferry, 2011 retractable roof to sports stadium, fancy Roman spiral architecture of the Vancouver Central Library, 2010 "Winter Olympics" convention center, and Olympic torch. As many sushi restaurants downtown as there are coffee shops to feed all the Asian ESL students.

Is there any chance of getting books signed for SS with the current position? Is CGC in the works, or will the presence of a facilitator be enough?

 

There are some great artists coming that I would love a signature from (for SS).

[aardvark88]

I am impressed that Hobby Star is encouraging families to attend by offering 2 FREE tix to kids 12 and under with a paid adult admission ($20):

Good way to try to grow the anime or comicon market.

Please note: Due to a film project shooting schedule conflict, Tom Felton has had to postpone his 2012 appearances at Emerald City Comic Con, Fan Expo Vancouver and the Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo.

:baiting:i wouldn't really call it short how ever the drive has nothing to do with me having to go to work on one of those days Ones i really care about seeing are ... top down ... Also between eccc & ?FEV()? I don't know if I would want to stay for both days ... between the two days & the cons cash will be hurting I got a feeling I'll only be going to FEV for the photo ops

WHich brings up an other interesting question on just when will we find out about how things will be done ... photo op /sig prices ect? Do we bring our own cameras or will there be an official person taking the photo ops ...[Please don't be froggys photos ]

 

[TheLiamSturgess]

Hopefully Froggy's will be absent this year.
