It's impossible to explain or describe the size and scope of this popular media convention. It's much more than "just comics". It's enormous - there are comic book dealers, "stuff" dealers (cards, action figures, collectibles, posters, books etc. etc.), an art show, artist alley, game rooms, movies, movie previews, panel discussions and Q&A, etc. etc. They show movies 24hrs a day. Seminars all day. Artist alley is one of our favorites. Meet the artists and see up close the fantastic art available for purchase - originals and repros. I must say, comic book art isn't like it was when I was growing up! Here are a few of the sights to be seen.
