Weekend before last Denver had it's second Comic Con Convention. Last year we had a few small guests and they expected 5-7000 to come. They had 27000 show up.

This year they planned a head and thought they might get 30-45000. 61000 showed up!! There was only one Non-Sports dealer (K&J) and he did rather well.

I am hoping that next year we can get a few of the manufacturers to come out support the show and give Denver a few exclusive cards. We are now the 4th largest Con in the country and can only grow from here.

I was cleaning up the office and found this (totally forgot I had it):

Huge announcement made today

Stephen Amell aka Oliver Queen/Green Arrow
From CW's Arrow has just been added to the celebrity lineup.

This is turning into an even better con than I had hoped

I hadn't seen that yet, Great News!

I love the Dalek badge.

There was also a cool Mumm-Ra one. I was able to get Wil Wheaton to autograph it!

For anyone interested.

unfortunately Wil Wheaton, Brent Spiner, and Patrick Stewart had prior engagements

but still pretty exciting.

Another great announcement for Denver.

For those of you in the area, Mile High Comics is doing a pre-con party at their Jason St Mega Store on June 12th starting at 5pm.
They should have a good assortment of guests there, it's a perfect opportunity to get some autographs before the con starts.

As of right now here are the people that are confirmed to be there:

George Perez
Neal Adams
Lou Ferrigno
Tone Rodriguez
Monty Moore
Greg Horn
Dan Conner
Tony Fleecs

The show was a huge success! The best part by far was this cover I had Ms. Owens do for me:
