DragonCon 2008

Is anyone going to DragonCon this year? I'll be posting on some other forums to see who is going.

By the way...

For those of you who don't know, DragonCon is a general Sci-Fi/Fantasy convention in Atlanta. This year, it's being held August 29 - September 1.

It's possible I'll be there, but Metrocon's going to take a good chunk of change first and Dragoncon's farther away. If I can find a place to crash and avoid a hotel cost, I'll probably go.

I'll be there. I'm gonna be the photographer for the Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts cosplay shoot and avoiding crazy Buffy TVS fans as much as possible.

Is there any other reason to go besides looking at cosplay people?

Unless you really like fan-run panels about Anime, Stargate, and Buffy and waiting in endless lines for overpriced autographs... No, not really.

Well, the dealer's room isn't half bad when it comes to comics. Since it's all local dealers, you can get some really good deals. It sucks when it comes to toys, though. Most of the dealers are stocking up on Anime figures nowadays.

For the last two years the guys and gals who run DragonCon held the Atlanta Comics Expo in April, but a few weeks ago they announced that this was their last year doing it. Sucks because it was a nice little con.

Damn. Thanks for the info bud.

I'll find something! It's only been a few weeks since Wizard World Chicago and I am needing another convention fix. But I need a good selection of toys.
