Just over two weeks ago, I once again volunteered for Phoenix FanFest. This is the smaller convention associated with Phoenix Comicon, held in the later part of the year. We ran for two days this year, Saturday and Sunday, and wound up at the downtown convention center instead of the football stadium from previous years. …
The season for conventions is upon us, two major comicons have already come and gone. One being Phoenix Comicon which I wrote about in detail in a previous post, and of course the major convention of the West Coast, San Diego Comicon.

I once again volunteered as a Photo Booth Coordinator for Phoenix Comicon, completing my 5th year in the position the first weekend in June. It’s a volunteer position I have loved from the beginning and one I will continue to do in years to come. It can be very busy and I usually don’t have …

Late comers were asked to listen to the meeting from out in the hallway because there was not enough seating. It’s a good problem to have. I don’t recall any previous year where …
No, not an ultimate martial arts battle to the death with a weird four-armed dude. That’s next week, make sure you bring your own lightning god.
