Not Comics: Big Year Expected for PAX

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer previews this weekend's Penny Arcade Expo, the gaming convention in Bellevue Washington helmed by the Penny Arcade team of creators Jerry "Tycho" Holkins and Mike "Gabe" Krahulik and business manager Robert Khoo. The article says the convention could be attended by as many as 17,000 people, which would double last year's attendance. Although the article gets some of its energy by pointing to gaming industry speculation about which shows might benefit from a more modest E3 convention, the article does go into the show as a successful extension of the strip's themes and, one assumes, a profitable execution of the company's business plan.
