So much has San Diego Comic Con become Hollywoodized that comic books and graphic novels themselves are now downgraded to a minor sideline in San Diego. Check out Morgan Spurlock's documentary COMIC CON PART IV: A FAN'S HOPE for details. And if you are Clevelanders, on minimum wage (if employed at all) and too impoverished to even afford the phone call for info on flights to San Diego, Spurlock's movie is about as close as you're ever going to get.
Or...it was. But look! Up in the sky! Well, no, down on the lakefront, at the newly refurbished Cleveland Convention Center, the first Wizard World Cleveland Comic Con convenes this weekend.
