The San Antonio Express-News' GeekSpeak blog asks the question. If you'd like to see it happen, post a comment over at their blog.

Ouch. My eyes.
Yeah, if you and Tron Guy want to roll that way, I guess it's cool. Hopefully not too much of that though....

I'd like to see it but hey I'd also like the Tron Guy to jump off a cliff. So who the hell knows what may happen.

SA is a great convention city and when i meet people and tell them i'm from SA they always say how much they love visiting SA for conferences. It makes sense that people would want to travel to SA for a comic/scifi meeting.

In the early 90's there use to be alot of independent comic book and toy shops in SA and the flea markets still have several vendors. Seems like there is audience for it and I'm sure it could draw from Austin and Houston if it s big.
