The vibe of the show is just unique. There is no shortage of bigger and louder comic cons out there to be sure, but the fact that it is totally focused on comics and comic creators is at the heart of what makes it work so well. The creative folks that attend Heroes go because they genuinely want to be there, this can't be said for every con!

I will be drawing all weekend and I will have a list to get on, I just haven't taken any advance orders so to speak (okay maybe a couple). Maybe I'll plan ahead better for the next stop on my summer con tour.

I may have to reassess my opinion that Fan Expo in Toronto has the most people in costume, this show seems be be cosplay central ;) I don't know what it is about Florida, but they love to get dressed up down there, and I'm all for it! Since I have a limited knowledge of Anime, I don't know a lot of the characters, but it is still fun to see 'em.

Here's my con schedule so far this year. I hope to add some others like NYcomic con but I'll have to wait and see.

I did and the next day the new one wouldn't work and to make matters worse I no longer had access to the email account that deviant had for me so I couldn't reset my password online...ugh! To top it off, it seems that password glitches are only addressed once a week so I had to wait ....whoa, what  mess.
