March 14th & 15th, 2009 In Inverness, Scotland, UK! Looking at our Blog's stats... I see that there are several European bloggers reading our archived October 23rd, 2008 blog post, which was our first mention of this upcoming Comic (con) Expo! Why? Well my mother's lineage is from Scotland, (Clan Chattan), so the Scottish Highlands are calling me even now... I hear the bagpipes playing even way over here in Southern California... LOL! Even though these past two weeks has seen mostly blog posts on the 2009 NYCC that just ended Sunday... We have actually been blogging about more Comic Cons and Pop Culture Conventions outside of North America, because so many of our newest Blog readers are from outside the USA. We also wanted to include areas that could be combined for Cons and tourism at the same time for travelers interested in seeing beautiful places before or after the cons... Plus this Comic Expo in Inverness is scheduled as a 'Valentines Special' as it occurs the 14th and 15th February of 2009! A beautiful area to be in after Con hours! Details for the Con are as follows: The Con's Guest List includes: Michael Carroll Gary Erskine Alan Grant Leah Moore Frank Quitely The first Hi Ex Comic Expo had programs and workshops throughout both days. There are planned programs for the 2009 Expo at this time also, as can be seen by going to: Additionally there will be exhibitors and creators there with their publications for sale. Hi-Ex is organised and run by my Facebook Friends, artist Vicky Stonebridge, and also 'Futurequake' editor Richmond Clements! (Please Note: A complimentary item for this mention / review was Not provided by the con promoters.)
For those of you that are new to our blog today, we also have an ongoing online 'Comic Con and Pop Culture Convention' ourselves here at "Make It So Marketing Inc.", what with our daily blog posts, and new listings of items for sale in our online eBay Featured Store! Would you believe that our Blog has greeted its' 328,000th visitor this past week?? Thanks again to all of YOU reading our current and archived blog posts!~ Michael (and Tina)
