| You'll have to be the official TIG reporter, for the benefit of those of us unable to attend.  I'm sure we'd all love to see some photos & hear all about the event.  |

| Not a problem will be happy to. Its the first time for any show here to be labeled a Comic Con. Most often people travel to Detroit, MI or Chicago, IL for convention's. Being that West Michigan or Metro has just over a million people
I'm hoping it has a great turnout... |

| Why is it that we emigrated to the 'new world' and gave things cool names like Grand Rapids and stuff, while back here we called places Scunthorpe and Skegness, while sending all our convicted villains to the glorious sun of Australia while we stayed home and basked in the perpetual Autumn of England. God we suck!
That said, hope the convention goes well buddy, post some pics! |

+'s to you, for making me laugh this evening.  They just had the 1st annual Comic Con in the city of Hamilton, ON. this past weekend as well. Unfortunately, I didn't make it. They also have one in Toronto and Niagara Falls as well. Hopefully the one is Grand Rapids is a huge success.  |

| Nice  . We have some odd name too. Climax, Gaylord, Fruitport and even Hell, Michigan. The big difference is that most of our city names don't really have any meaning behind it. |
