I've been a little bummed that I'm going to be missing NY Comic Con this year (I'm going away that weekend), so I was super excited when I heard about the LI Comic Book Expo which happened this past weekend.
The convention itself was held at the Old Bethpage Restoration Center, which is a historic site on Long Island that always has various events going on. I'd been there a few times for different things, but never a comic convention. The building itself isn't the largest, so it does tend to get cramped and hot very quickly, but I went first thing in the morning so it wasn't too bad yet.
It was such a fun way to spend a Sunday morning, and something I'd be interested in going to again if they have it next year. As much as I love NY Comic Con, it's so packed and huge that I get a bit overwhelmed and anxious, but this was just so relaxed and calm. Do you all prefer larger or smaller conventions? Lemme know of any fun ones in your area!
Glad you got to go to the LI one if You’re going to be missing the nyc one !! Also, love the spice girls dolls!!
ReplyDeleteI almost bought all of them!
DeleteThis sounds like a wonderful con! And it looks like you got a nice haul too. I would've bought all those Spice Girls dolls if I could. NYCC is on my bucket list of geeky things to do.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to go to NYCC sometime! I really think everyone should experience it at least once :]
