Setting up as an exhibitor at (hopefully):

 

Toronto ComiCON march

Ottawa Comic Con may

Fan Expo Canada august

Montreal Comic Con september

 

Looking at these ones to attend - depends on time and money:

 

C2E2 april

Calgary Comic Expo april

San Diego july

New York Comic Con october

 

All depends on finances.

 

I'd go to TCAF in May but the Ottawa show is on the same weekend.

In the small comic con pond, 3 area shows the same weekend in April. 1.5-2 hours west in PA is Comic Geek Speak Super Show while 1 hour east in NYC are MoccaFest and Mike Carbonara's show, nycbm.com . I have not been big into going to Mocca in a few years but sometimes drop by on my way out of town from the carbo show. But I have enjoyed the supershow a few times as well, and can get my Katie Cook itch scratched there pretty reliably. What's a fella to do? Artist alley list will really dictate where I spend my time. Or I could go crazy and do NYC on Sat and PA on Sunday - it could happen.

The one sure thing(God willing) is Wizard World Philly. Other than that I'm not sure. I'm thinking about Chicago, and I'll probably do NYCC again as long as the usual crowd is there.

Hoping to find a few gems to add to my comic collection in these shows...

Gem City Dayton Ohio,

 

Maybe C2E2, Chicago,

 

Motor City Detroit,

 

Wizard World Chicago,

 

Detroit Fanfare, Detroit,

 

Mid-Ohio Con, somewhere in Ohio

 

I have invites to Philly and Austin from nearby comic friends, and I have a buddy

who lives in Tampa, so....if I happen to stumble into a few extra thousands I could

amuse myself throughout the year!
