palmcon: small, but fun for comic and sic-fi fans

Comics and sci-fi are not just for kids anymore. They haven't been for a long time. Everyone has heard about ComicCon, which is such a big deal every year on the west coast. But comic book enthusiasts don't have to wait a year or travel  far from home these days. there are smaller conventions popping up all over. South Florida is home to many conventions and one of the newest, PalmCon, held its second annual convention in the Palm Beach area last weekend.

It may have been a small-scale event, but the crowds were enthusiastic, and there were plenty of fun collectibles, a cosplay costume contest,  and special guests in attendance. Also on hand were replicas of the Tardis from Doctor Who, complete with some cast signatures, and the Batmobile. All in all a fun day. We'll definitely be back next year.
