Wondercon is moving for the 2016 show

WonderCon 2016 will be held in Los Angeles, from March 25-27.
Apparently, the Anaheim convention center is being upgraded, but isn't this the same thing they said about the move from San Francisco. We will see. At least the movie stars will be closer to the convention.

Anyone who lives or has lived in LA knows the traffic and smog issues.

Niño had advanced copies of his new sketchbook but the book sold out by Saturday afternoon. More copies to follow and more info. on how to order coming soon.
