The Never-Ending, Four-Color Festival: Shows And Events
By Tom Spurgeon
* glad to see a site here and there picking up on that dumb Wizard-hosting-a-gun-dealer story. Usually I'd feel awful for the major comics guests to have their once-a-year spotlight stolen like that, but there aren't really a lot of comics guests at Wizard shows.
* Comiket ends with their usual heart-stopping attendance figures. I suppose there's a post to be written by someone that digs into how shows count their attendance, but I think it's more than clear this is the biggest one. They're bringing two new buildings into the fold for the December iteration.
* SPX heats up with an exhibitor list somewhere in there; the Ignatz noms should be out sometime today as well and will engender their own post.
