Welcome

Thank you for visiting the online home of the Windy City Comicon. Chicago's Finest Comic Book Convention.

The Windy City Comicon would like to thank all of our guests, vendors, sponsors, and volunteers that made the 2008 show an amazing event. We had a fantastic time, and hope all of you did as well. With over 1500 visitors to the show, we were able to become the most sucessful comic book convention in the city of Chicago, in over 20 years!

We've already begun planning how to make next year's show bigger, better, and more fun. Check back in January of 2009 for updates and announcements. Or, sign up for our newsletter to keep up on any news from the show.

Once again, we would like to say thank you to everyone involved in making our first show such a sucess. If you didn't get a chance to come out this year, check out our Photo Gallery or our Video Library to see what you missed.
