the PARADISE TORONTO COMICON - APRIL 28-29-30, 2006
:: Posted by max @ 4/14/2006 09:30:00 PM Seems to be some confusion due to dirty pool going on in Toronto, Bryan just sent out this link to a post on comics.212 about it to our group.
Toronto convention promoter Hobby Star is being called out by PARADISE COMICS for parking their recently announced FREE Toronto Comicon Fan Appreciation Event, titled "TORONTO COMICON" on the logo, and held this coming April 23rd, just one week before the April 28-30 PARADISE COMICS TORONTO COMICON - commonly already referred to and long marketed as "The TORONTO COMICON".
PARADISE'S Kevin Boyd has posted PARADISE COMICS official reaction on torontocomicon.com about it here, and Chris of the Beguiling has on his site.
I've personally liked what the guys at PARADISE have been doing. And to remind you what that is, here's the line up off of their site, for the April 28-30 PARADISE COMICS TORONTO COMICON - I'm going.
