ComicCon-ing: MegaCon Starts Today

At 4 pm today, MegaCon Orlando will be opening its doors.  They have a star-studded lineup. Besides, their comic creator list is outstanding. Every year, we have attended, they have had some of the best, and most reasonable vendors around.
This year the con is in the West Concourse of the Orange County Convention Center.  It his a vast complex that has lots of great panel rooms and theaters for the larger guests.
MegaCon also got lucky in that in the number of guests canceling was extremely low.  Now, this is never a cons fault; actors have to pay the rent. However, it is terrible for a con when a slew of guests cancel. As of the time of this writing, MegaCon Orlando only has had two celebrity guests cancel: Renee O’Connor and Karl Urban.
MegaCon always has some great con exclusive merchandise.  There are comic books that you can get signed by comic creators. They have some great t-shirts and Funko Pop that you can only buy at MegaCon.
If after four days of con fun, you still crave more excitement, head to Hollywood Studios at Disney World for Galactic Nights on Sunday, May 27. You can attend a panel discussion about the new Star Wars land they are building.  The rides will still be operating, and you will be able to meet Star Wars Characters.
We will be at both events so if you see us say hi!
