2013 San Diego Comic Fest That Was Held Saturday June 22nd at the Town and Country Resort in San Diego, California TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3892 - This past weekend was a busy comic book filled two days for me! First, on Saturday, I attended the June Planning Meeting of the San Diego Comic Fest. Then on Sunday, I drove to Baldwin Park, and attended the 2013 San Gabriel Valley Comic Book Expo, which I blogged about yesterday in blog #3891. Anyways, I drove down to the Town and Country Resort on Saturday for the 1PM meeting. Which lasted till about 3:30 PM. Here are some of the topics that were covered at the Planning Meeting and that I can share here... First of all... There has been another guest added to the Guest List. You may have heard of him... Russ Heath! I'll be sure to post more info on that as soon as it is up on the San Diego Comic Fest web site. There is another guest that was semi-announced, but I'll wait till that is confirmed at the web site... The San Diego Comic Fest will have a table at the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con International, that takes place July 18 thru 21st at the San Diego Convention Center. The table will be at the Mezzanine floor, along with other group tables. Volunteers are needed to help staff the long hours of the 4 day (+ Preview Night) event. The Draco Tavern is taking shape, and sounds like it will be a fun addition at this year's San Diego Comic Fest. Wendy All announced several items that will be part of the LeChanticleer room, which is on top of the Regency Tower at the Town and Country. Posters were brought by Michael Lapins, and everyone at the meeting oohed & ahhed them as he showed them off. See photo(s) at the right. There was a question about APE being the same weekend as our convention. However, that was incorrect. APE is the following weekend in San Francisco, (October 12 & 13), so artists can attend both cons if they would like to set up at them. Our San Diego Comic Fest is October 4th thru 6th. There was a question about better signage for this year's event. Peter Csanadi will be updating the map he designed for last year's event. That 2012 map can be found at this link. (Also pictured at the right.) I will post the 2013 map after it is uploaded. The 2013 event will basically be in the same area of the Town and Country Resort. But there will be some differences. Artist Alley may be moved... More on that in a later post. That pretty much is all that I can publicly state at this time... For the rest of the photos I shot at the Planning Meeting, see this link.
