Paradise Toronto Comicon

Comics, comics, comics....costumes, clowns and characters. And if that wasn't enough to get your imagination, well...imagining....the suicide girls made an appearance for the second year running. I've been going to these, comic cons, for years and they seem to be getting more and more popular. I can remember when they were mostly men, with 3 or 4 lost women, wandering around. Today, it seems about even, with live action role playing perspective, internet t.v. shows and many artists of the womanly persuasion adding their creativity to the mix.
From the old standbys to the new, and way off centre creations...sketches were available, way old comics and many 'underground' ideas available no where else. If you missed this one, not to fret, there are many great stores around town, Paradise Comics and 3rd Quadrant being just two of them, where the dreams of superheroes are kept alive all year round.
