Anyone have a list of Cons for this year? This is what I have so far:
C2E2 (Chicago)
San Diego Comic Con
New York Comic Con
Baltimore Comic Con (my local Con)
Supernatural Chicago Con (go ahead and laugh )
This will be my 3rd SDCC. I was sad I missed it last year!

I've never been to a Con, but Louisville has one called the Derby City Con that people around here have been talking about

I have a few costumes planned for the UK ones this year, as well as my Res Evil costume0

Depends what kind of a con you're looking for.
E3 (electronics/gaming) is in June, GenCon (gaming) is in August, Origins (gaming) is probably in May/June again, Wizard World Comic Con is in March for STL (where I live), ACen (anime) is usually May/June around the Chicagoland area, Archon (game/anime/scifi?) is in October I think, and Anime St. Louis is in April. There are a couple others my friends go to, but those are the ones I remember offhand.0 -
Sorry for the double post, but one of my friends wanted me to add Dragon*Con in Atlanta every Labor Day weekend.0

I've always wanted to try Dragon*Con! NIce list!0

I've never gone to a con which is really sad since I live just north of Boston.. I really ought to go to one sometime this year...
Any suggestions on what ones/where to go?0 -
I think Boston actually has one!

NYCC (New York Comic Con) is pretty awesome too.0 -
I am really hoping to make it to C2E2 this year because it's the closest general one to me (as far as I know/I'm in St. Louis). If I end up going it will be my first! I'd like to visit more in the future - I've heard good things about San Diego and Dragon*Con.
I already know I'll have to have my River Song dress taken in by the time April comes along!0 -
C2E2 is a great show! I think it's a nice starter Con because San Diego is a mad house, seriously. :laugh:0
-
Dragoncon (as usual, hard to skip it living in Atlanta)
Maybe Wondercon in Orlando.0 -
dragonCon!
skipping the parade though. After last year's event I was pretty disquested. I wish politics would stay out of my fantasies.0 -
Lots of Dragon*Con people! That's awesome!0

I went to DragonCon this past year for the first time but I prefer Anime Weekend Atlanta. DragonCon was just so big and you have to spend an hour waiting in line if you want to make sure you get into a panel. AWA spoiled me (I have gone for the past 5 years) and while it is big for an anime con I have never worried about not getting into an event.0

Anime Boston doesn't disappoint. Then there's ConnectiCon, and in RI the NecrinomiCon (HP Lovecraft themed Con-I died laughing at the name)0
-
Definitely going to Anime Boston *hopefully* going to NYCC and Connecticon as well.I think Boston actually has one!

Huh, I never knew Boston had one! Hmmm...might have to check it out!0 -
the secret to DragonCon is that you have to be in a clique to get into most events without waiting. *yawn* The "elite" geeks and costumers pretty much rule that show. I'm just going to the dance parties. Who cares about anything else. But the costumes are amazing - some heavy hitters and fithy ritch people really do put on some amazing shows.
Assasination city and Alamo city may be options for me too. I missed the dallas con last year by one day due to work. Excellent location for it but only one hotel within walking distance!0
