I was there in an official capacity!  We appreciate you coming and hope you had fun!  

I am so proud that it remains comic book focused, and has not fallen into the trap of becoming a "pop-culture convention".  It was by far our biggest and best year ever.

Thanks,
Phil

Here's a few photos I snapped during HeroesCon that I thought would be of interest to the forum!  

The amazing Howard Mackie:



A cosplayer in a great Snowbird costume:



And Stéphane Roux painting a "Fastball Special"!

It was the best show I have ever been to.  All comics focused.

I was there with Alan Davis. HeroesCon is
without a doubt a fantastic show for comics
fans. I recommend anyone who loves comics to
attend.

Contact lenses for the eyes? That's strong commitment :)

Also, I don't know that I've ever seen live painting at a con. Pretty cool.

I've been to Heroes a million times, it really is the best con out there for comics.

Probably be back next year after missing a couple years!
