As it is impossible to attend all comic and/or pop culture conventions, we have invited some of our friends that frequently attend cons to contribute their convention perspectives & experiences. Please, let them know how much you appreciate their contributions! |
Juan Chavez...
Growing up on the border of USA and Mexico, Juan Chavez, watched endless hours of cartoons and anime that were broadcast to San Diego and Tijuana. His most memorable cartoons/anime were: X-men, Batman the animated series, Gargoyles, spider-man, and Ninja Turtles, Dragon Ball Z, Captain Tsubasa, Knights of the Zodiac, Dragon Quest, and Ranma ½. Discovering the Con world has caused some nostalgia and sparked new interests all the while helping us behind the scenes.

Andrew Sanford...
Originally a Spider-man fan, Andrew read tons of Marvel comics but tastes branched out to DC and the burgeoning independent scene of the '80s with comics by First, Eclipse and other such companies. After a "dark period" of a few years away from comics, he found a great local comic store in 2000 and got right back into it. This led to an intensified interest in the comic world. Andrew started attending cons, getting commissions, buying original art and generally surrendering himself to the hobby. Repeated forum interactions led Andrew to contributing segments to the Marvel Noise podcast and Comic Spectrum.
