The San Diego Comic-Fest is a throw back to an old time comic-con. In fact, it was started and is maintained by a few old San Diego Comic-con (or Comic-Con International: San Diego) founders, organizers and volunteers. However, it is not affiliated with that big comic convention. Attendance is capped so it is a small con. You can spend a lot of time talking to guests, pros, and other attendees.

Sounds neat. I'd like to go there someday. I love meeting creators and fans at conventions, so that could be an interesting one to attend.

haha, jörgwesti beat me to it;)...this is going to be the first comic con in germany;)(which is odd to my ears, since comic con is just short for comic convention, I think thats not really a brand name, is it?we have MANY comic conventions over here!...)but I guess it is regarding itself as a sister to the sd comic con....

Have my fingers crossed that Denver Comic Con might be in your future :wink: . Not sure if they have set an official date yet our not but I think I read that it was going to be June 17-19. If not I'm thinking Phoenix is not too far of a drive from Denver. :idea:

I'm going to pass on WonderCon in 2016, at least as an exhibitor.

However, I added Boston to the list.
