Comic Con season is HERE! I kick off 2015 with a show I’m quite excited about. It’s run by friends of mine, who are organizers for others shows where I’ve exhibited (in Allentown), and now they’re teaming up for a bigger show closer to Philly! Mind you, this is NO Wizard World show… but I only mean that in the GOOD sense. As many friends have confided in me, the big Wizard World shows that are setting up shop in seemingly every city across America are reaching a point where they are too big for their britches for many comic fans. The tickets are super pricey, the focus is on the celebrities more than comics or artist alley, and the crowds are insane even for adults– not to mention completely overwhelming for kids. Now, not to say Wizard shows do not have their place, but I’m bringing it up because some parents/fans have said they don’t want to deal with the stress of attending the Wizard shows… in which case, I HIGHLY recommend a medium size show like The Great Philadelphia Comic Con!
