Wizard World Chicago - August 20-23, 2020 1 1

talk around Chicago is that we are going back to phase 3 probably the weekend

[1Cool]

No way in heck any of the big comic cons will be held this year.  A small local show was held down in Columbus last weekend so I have some hope for a small local show here in Cleveland but the big ones take way too much planning and expensive booths to be sold for them to go on.  Stick a fork in them until next year.

Shouldn't be a problem to hold WW Chicago then there will be no problem keeping social distance if it's attended like it was last year. Hell, up it to 20 feet between people given what a nosedive that show's made in the last few years.

Had family stuff going on or I'd have definitely gone.  Harper shows have pretty much all the same players in my area but it would be cool to go flip through some books

I won’t be disappointed if this show is cancelled. Probably the best move. I’m just hoping so much that we’ll have C2e2 next March.

Those are actually really nice dates, for me anyway.

I’m not convinced that’s a guarantee either, unfortunately.

Agreed.  Third week of August was always enormously pressure upon me every year due to my kids back to the school.   Nice break!

Dammit! I won't get to see little Johnny Hauser or a hundred other guys with lots of stuff.

my favorite digging show of the year. And eating and drinking and and and everything is just so right there.

I was thinking the same thing and may actually go up based on the guest list and vendors.
