If so, which one's? Here's my list!
SDCC 2010
SDCC 2011
NYCC 2011
Baltimore Comic Con 2011
Wizard Wold Philly 2011
This year I have C2E2 in Chicago planned for April but I'll be missing SDCC. I'm still hoping to make it to NYCC again though!

SOOOOOOOOOOOO jealous you've been to SDCC :sad:
I worked at the MCM Expo in London a couple of years ago and am planning on going to Thought Bubble in Leeds this year. A trip to the states is a LITTLE out of my budget though0 -
im stuck in canada so i can never make it to sdcc .. sadly all i get here is festival of fear in Toronto0
-
I'll be exhibiting at the MoCCA Festival in April. Check it! http://www.moccany.org0

I was at Megacon this past weekend. I may be attending DragonCon. Locally we have Ancient City Con and EXP Con I think is the name.
I'm actually planning on going to Megacon next year. I'm planning on dressing up as The Punisher. I figure I'll be in decent enough shape to pull that off then. lol
I'm actually planning on going old school punisher /w the white boots, gloves, and belt get up. I think that will be bad *kitten*. I'm gonna make most of the outfit, then spray paint it bright white and throw a coat of clear gloss over it. I need to find some iconic guns for him too. The only drawback it the glasses... stupid glasses... lol0 -

Loved every one of them. Wish I had the time and money to do more.0 -
I love all the different cosplayers you see. It's amazing what they can create!0
-
I haven't been to a con in years. Someday I'll make it to SDCC. Some fine day.0
-
It's like a Nerd Battle Royale to get into SDCC anymore!0

I'm suppose to be going to C2E2 this year also!0 -
I've been to a Firefly convention in Burbank. During the writers strike Mutant Enemy had a "fans strike with the writers day" in front of Fox studios in Burbank....I was there.
other that that......whatever comes to Dallas I go to. I rarely leave the state for cons.0 -
I don't think the budget is going to allow us to go to US based Cons this year but I will be manning a booth at two (possibly 3) Canadian based cons. Currently gearing up & gathering stock for Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo in April.0
-
For those in Canada, check out WizardWorld.Com. They put on some decent conventions and I think they do a few up north. I'm not 100% sure though.0

There's a few decent cons in Canada. Polaris in TO, CCEE in Calgary, Wizard World puts on a Con in TO a few weeks before CCEE. HalCon in Halifax has been growing these past few years. There's smallish, specialized (less hollywood, more authors) cons in Edmonton, Winnipeg & Saskatoon as well. Creation runs a bunch in Van and TO...For those in Canada, check out WizardWorld.Com.

Likely a tonne more that I don't know about.
I'd love to go to them all, but it's frequently cheaper for me to travel to Atlanta, Chicago, NY or SD/LA than it is to travel to other Cdn cons ;(0 -

I knew there was more, but couldn't think of them off the top of my head! Nice list there! Yeah, I'm in Maryland so SDCC is the big pricey Con for me. NYCC isn't too bad and I have friends in Chicago which cuts down on cost. I'd love to attend Dragon*Con once though!0 -
NYCC!!!!!0

My 1st NYCC was last year and I loved it! I was there mainly for Avengers stuff but met an online friend who I've known for YEARS. She has her own webcomic and that made NYCC 100x better!
My profile picture is actually from SDCC! lol0 -
Used to attend DragonCon, PlayOnCon, Frolicon.. But not so much since I moved to Las Vegas.. Oddly enough, Vegas doesn't seem to have many geeky cons, at least not that I can tell.0
-
I thought Vegas had a Star Trek Convention but that could be one that moves around.0

I do Dragoncon each year and I attended the local con called Archon for the first time this last year. It's more of a party con than a fandom con.0

I go to Dragon*con every year and a few other local conventions too.
Getting into better shape before Dragon*con is one of my main goals and motivations.
This year getting around con better
Next year awesome/hot Costumes 0 -
That is part of my motivation too! I love see all the super costumes, but ever year I have to say that I am a teeny bit jealous that I am not confident enough to pull one off. I hope in a year! This year I agree with you I will just be happy to be able to get around the con a little more comfortably.I go to Dragon*con every year and a few other local conventions too.

Any UK'ers going to KitaCon in Birmingham in April??0
-
I am going to Dragoncon this year. I have not been in about 5 years. And I go to Shore-Leave every year.0
-
I started dating my husband at Shore Leave!0
-
We're off to MCMExpo in Birmingham at the end of the month (as Thor and Emma Frost (XMen), because we couldn't think of matching costumes)
Anyone else off to there?0
