This Comic Con Finally got it RIGHT!!!

This was the Fall Con in Illinois. It was previously a mall con. To be honest, I did not have my hopes up. I have never really had a great experience with this event in the past. The problem is, there is very little advertising. You really wouldn't know about it unless you were in the organizer's inner circle. This year they moved locations and had it in the civic center. This was a great improvement as it felt more like a comic con. I would whole heartedly recommend that this con tries to grow more before adding celebrities. They have celebrities every year, but the community interest in them is very low. Mostly due to the fact that they are not very well known. I feel like they are just above extras in movies or TV shows. Just grow the event first and then add better celebrities. Also, build your event by advertising and not charging so much to get a table. The more vendors you can get the better the event will be. I want this to succeed, because I dont want to have to drive all across the state to find a good con.

Alex I don’t know if anyone’s told you but your camera on your computer your webcam is lower quality than your cell phone. your videos look much better if you just used your phone to record the sit down introductions. I have. been a viewer of your for a while now and noticed the video quality was a little off for a while now. I am sure I am not the only one that has pointed that out or has told you this who knows I might be the only one. I am not trying to add negative criticism just trying to help improve your video i am trying to let you know I like your videos just trying to help out a fellow comic book KZbinr keep making great content Alex

@@travisgrant8188 I appreciate the feedback. You didn’t do it negatively at all. I record the footage with cell phone or GoPro and the. Record the talking/haul with my Mac forward facing camera. I am not sure what I can do to upgrade that at the moment, but I might look into a top mount web cam and see if that helps. Thanks again and the way you did it was very respectful

Where was this con? I never see any shows near me until after they are over.

[@AlextheComicHoarder]

@@SuperMoleRetro this one was in Quincy. Dude you’d never know with this one. They don’t seem to like to advertise outside of their own Facebook page.

[@SuperMoleRetro]

​@AlextheComicHoarder yeah, and I guess you can kind of tell. There were not many people in that hall room.

@@SuperMoleRetro no there were way more dealers than customer when I was there.
