Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo 2013

This last weekend was the annual Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo, and of course, I was there! 

I took a nice little road trip down with my buddies Danny & Darren

We got in Friday night and took a quick walk around the grounds to get a lay of the land and waste some time until the Weird Al concert.

Things were laid out much better this year, if you remember my post from last year's disaster. This year they had moved all the signings, photo ops and kids zone over to the Big Four, leaving a substantial amount of room in the halls for all of the vendors. Have the con spread over 2 buildings also made things a lot less cramped with plenty of people hanging out outside between the two buildings.

For those that have to deal with anyone who makes fun of you for being a nerd or a geek or anything like that, take a listen to this speech from Wil Wheaton at this very convention.

Edmonton Comic Con

This weekend was the first Edmonton Expo. I was impressed with the turn out considering the short prep time and notice of the con.

One booth there that I wish I had taken a picture of was for TUGS, any nerd from Drumheller would know that name. That place brings back memories of pogs, Marvel trading cards and Spawn comics.

All in all the con was fun, it was also the first time I had dressed up for a con. Judging by the number of times I was stopped for pictures I would say it was a success.

Pictures after the jump, check em out.
