Once again a small show really reminded me what I loved most about comic shows... FUN!
Brass City Comic Con was a small show that took place in Waterbury, CT (the brass city) and was held at the Naugatuck Valley Community College. Professor William Foster III and the gang from Legends Of Super Heroes collected some of the best local comic talent, nationally known creators and a bunch of the best deals in comic books and other geekery. And with an admission of only 99 cents to get it, the show was just a simple gathering that was celebrating the hobby we love.
Among the guests there were some cool raffles and an amazing game of Art Fight! Here two people were told what to draw and had one minute to it. Applause would determine the winner. I got to be involved and my opponent in this? Paris Cullins! Yes...the Paris Cullins who ushered in the DC era of the Blue Beetle and was the co-creator of the Blue Devil! Needless to say... I lost.
So thank you again to the amazing folks behind the scenes and the fans that made this show so special. Join us next year... won't you?
