COMIC CON!!! Theoretically this is the greatest four days of any person's life! Doctor Who, Torchwood, Marvel, DC, Limited Edition Comic Books, Film posters, Shonen Jump, Anime, Manga, Big Bang Theory, Twilight etc... Reality, not so much, as I sit watching through a computer screen, other people's happiness... However, San Diego's Comic Con this weekend is expected to get the attendance of 130,000 people! With the arrival of many more awaiting outside the venue wishing they could "Force" (Star Wars :D ) their way through. This event alone and all the people that arrive will contribute to a small increase in the economy. This SuperTourism (Superman :D ) is suspected to "feed tens of millions of dollars into the local economy", which has impressed the local mayor. According to a tourism official "the event will result in $75 million in direct spending in the area". So Comic Con is not just out of this world and on a parallel universe (Doctor Who :D ) for CC fans, but also pretty amazing for the economy of San Diego! Smiles all around... (If you are there) :)
