Looks like I'm gonna be there with my little sister in tow (15 years old). We're only going to be there Friday so is there anyone/anything that MUST be seen? Or anyone a 15 year old girl should meet to solidify her as a comic fan for life?

Can anyone tell me how this con compares to Mid Ohio (only major con I have attended)? Would like to attend this year since it is a little closer to home (Toledo area) and Mid Ohio prices this year are $35 for Saturday (the Stan Lee effect) compared to $22 per day at Motor City. Can anyone who has attended both tell me how it compares to Mid Ohio (comic selection, crowds, cosplay)? Thanks!


I heard that there is this really awesome show in Cincinnati and is cheaper than Ohio.

BTW...I like Motor City Con.

I'm glad to see that the Mike Goldman show lives on. No word on guests yet, but I've heard rumors of a major Star Wars hero who has never made a MCCC appearance. Or, a major Star Trek / X-Men hero who I don't recall ever being at the show. But rumors are only rumors.

So, who's going?
have fun Mike What's on your want list?

I'd say they were very comparable, with Motor City being a tad larger. Last time I went to Mid Ohio was two to three years ago and I don't know if it has expanded since then. Comic selection is usually pretty good, but the Cosplay is kept at a minimum. Crowds on a Saturday is pretty packed but not like a Fan Expo, NYCC, SD or WWChicago.

Except there will be a ton of good dealers at Motor City. I will be there as well as Harley, Bob, Ted, and others.
