    MEDIA INFO & CONTACT For all requests and inquiries, please contact: Alex Kingcott, [email protected], 403.554.7368 FAN EXPO HQ adds leading Wizard World events to its portfolio, becoming the largest producer of comic con events in the world (August 10, 2021, 7:00 a.m. PT/10 a.m. ET – Toronto, ON): Today, FAN EXPO HQ shared big plans to change the fan convention industry in North America forever, when it announced six of Wizard World’s (OTC:WIZD) largest U.S. shows will join its portfolio.

Not much has happened to me in the last few months, mostly work and in the last few weeks yard work. I did sign my first part lease on a horse, which is exciting for me, and the start of one of my long time dreams, to own my own horse. I’ve also been reorganizing my craft room. Mostly this means I put up a bunch of shelves and moved bags off my table and onto the shelves. One thing that has been consuming some of my time recently is a drawing show on YouTube called Pub Draw. It’s as much fun to watch as it is to draw along. For those of you into comics it’s hosted by Babs Tarr and she is teaching a bunch of voice actors to draw, or she’s herding cats. I haven’t actually figured that part out yet. Usually they draw a specific character in each episode, but the skills can be used draw just about any sort of humanoid character –sadly no gryphons or other types yet. Anyway, if you’re interested in drawing maybe check it out and if you draw some of your own characters, send your drawings to one of the ezines out there.

(April 29, 2021): Today, FAN EXPO HQ announced plans to add to its growing roster of comic con events with the addition of a new event: FAN EXPO San Francisco, launching Fall 2022, at the renowned Moscone Center. Fans should expect a world-class comic con event with the entertainment’s biggest creators and celebrities, and a true celebration of the local creative community. Event dates will be released later in 2021, and will be part of a multi-year commitment with the Moscone Center. “FAN EXPO is beyond thrilled to finally be bringing an authentic comic con style experience to the Bay Area,” said FAN EXPO HQ President, Aman Gupta. “We’re committed to growing an exceptional event for fans who’ve been missing out since Wondercon moved to Anaheim in 2012, and really make a home in this community. San Francisco is a world-class hub for creativity, diversity, and innovation – I hope fans embrace us and get involved so we can celebrate their incredible local talent together.” This announcement further establishes FAN EXPO HQ as North America’s largest producer of pop culture fan events.

    Volume 1, Issue 22 June 2011 2 Editorial: Well, that seemed like a fast month! Maybe it was that I was a week late with the zine last time around. Even still, y’all managed to load us down with some good letters of comment. The calendar is as packed as ever – summer’s a good season for cons in the South. I kicked off my summer last weekend with a trip up to Balticon (my first time there) and enjoyed myself immensely. As we’ve established that for the purposes of this zine, Baltimore is in the South, I’d say that was starting it off right. Balticon had a great mixture of young and old fans, which felt similar to Chattacon. On the way home, Glug and I discovered that Waffle House now offers sausage gravy as a hash brown topping, which led to the realization that we can make Southern-style poutine out of Waffle House hash browns. Look for more on that next ish. I’m continuing my slog through the Hugo fiction, and this ish, we get through the short stories, novelettes, and another of the novels, plus Glug gives us a look at the graphic stories. Finally, we’ll be closing out with another great article from Dr. Jeff! Enjoy, y’all.
