Supanova 2004 convention report
May. 31st, 2004 11:52 pmIt's been almost a month now since I went to Supanova, so I guess it's past time that I said something about it.
To sum it up, I had a blast. I've been going to Supanova and its earlier incarnation, Comicfest, for years. It's more of a commercial convention than a fannish one, and the main draw for me is the shopping - dozens of vendors selling comics and SF merchandise and gaming stuff and, in more recent years, anime and manga.
There's usually a fair line up of special guests as well - in the past, I've gotten to meet some really cool people like Virginia Hey, David Mack, J G Hertzler, Robert O'Reilly, and the guys from Team Red Star. This year, there were a couple of guests I was pretty excited about, the main one being George Takei (SULU!!!).
