Another Player Enters Comics Events Market: Advanstar

The B2B company Advanstar has apparently purchased that Stan Lee Comikaze Expo that takes place in Los Angeles. The article here is like a pulsating showerhead of intriguing tidbits: the staffing, the reason given why the con was started, the project number, the fact that that Lee's company has already found another buyer, that this is I believe the first major move made by the Lee braintrust since Arthur Lieberman's passing, and so on. I think a few of the established events company having one or two shows could be an interesting thing, although this looks like it will be run by the same people just with administrative functions being taken over by Advanstar. Hey, maybe we'll get another trade magazine out of it.
