Start Spring Off Right with the Return of WonderCon!
WonderCon, one of the country's best comics conventions returns to Moscone
Center South in San Francisco April 2–4. WonderCon 2010 offers the perfect
Spring Break getaway over the long Easter holiday weekend, and it's made even
better with the special WonderCon room rate at our headquarters hotel, the San
Francisco Marriott Marquis. Book a room at this fabulous hotel—located just a
short walk from Moscone Center South—at the super low rate of only $109/night
(single/double occupancy; click here for details).
This year WonderCon will also host an evening game room and a convention
hospitality suite open to all
attendees at our headquarters hotel (just be sure to bring your badge for
entry!). See the article below
for more info on these great new additions to the WonderCon experience!
An amazing roster of special guests from the worlds of comics and science
fiction/fantasy will be a major highlight for fans at WonderCon 2010. The guest
list includes comics legends Murphy Anderson, Sergio Aragonés, and Joe Kubert
along with some of the superstars of today's most popular comics, including
Frank Cho, Amanda Conner, Darwyn Cooke, Colleen Doran, David Finch,
Geoff Johns, Adam Kubert, Jimmy Palmiotti, Darick Robertson,
James Robinson, Greg Rucka, Gail
Simone, Ethan Van Sciver, and Judd Winick. In addition, science fiction/fantasy
authors Peter S. Beagle and Tim Powers join the event, along with WonderCon
moderator supreme—and comics historian and writer—Mark Evanier. As a special
bonus, pop culture icon Stan Freberg and his wife, Hunter, are scheduled for the
show, marking their first WonderCon appearance. And comics publisher IDW brings
actor/producer/writer Michael Chiklis to the event for his first-ever
appearance, introducing his new comic book series. (For more information on all
of the special guests who have confirmed to-date, please click here.)
WonderCon provides a complete comics convention experience, including a giant
Exhibit Hall with one of the best Artists' Alleys in the country, plus
autograph, small press, and fan table areas. Companies from all over converge on
San Francisco to be a part of this show, including such major comic publishers
as DC Comics, Dark Horse, IDW, Image, and Oni Press, plus dealers selling comic
books, original art, books, movie memorabilia, action figures, and much more.
(For a complete list of exhibitors, click here.) Programming features spotlights
on all WonderCon's special guests, plus comic publisher presentations, movie and
TV panels and previews, and other panels on a wide range of comics and pop
culture topics. Saturday night's Masquerade is growing to Comic-Con size, and
anime and gaming are offered throughout the weekend. A complete schedule of
programs, anime, and games will be posted soon; please check back for details!
WonderCon 2009 saw another increase in attendance, growing to 34,000 fans, yet
it still has the intimate feeling of a fan-run comics convention. Be a part of
