  • Why call it a Comicon when it's not.

    by Disappointed again.... on 10/9/23Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 1 out of 5

    I was quite disappointed with this year's Big Comic Comicon. If you're a collector of comics and related materials like I am, it left a lot to be desired. There were only two comic vendors, and the event seemed to be dominated by startups and hobbyists trying to make a name for themselves in popular culture. While there were certainly celebrities and artists present, the heart of any comic con lies in its comic book, toy vendors, and artists. It felt more like a "popular culture con"than a true comic convention. My family, consisting of six members, has decided not to attend any more of these conventions, let alone stay for the weekend at a downtown hotel or dine at the restaurants downtown. The projected attendance numbers also failed to impress. I understand the Chamber of Commerce may have been pleased, but it's no wonder the numbers were low when you can walk through the entire show in just an hour. In the future, I won't be able to attend any more of these "comic cons."

    What happened to this event? It's been 5 years since I last attended one and was looking forward to yet another spectacular event but instead I left disappointed!! It's just not what it used to be with all sorts of sponsors, cameo, props and vendors.

  • Awesome Experience

    by Setsuna on 11/18/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    I like the No Pressure feeling for the photo op with James Arnold Taylor. I loved the vendors and staff was cool.

  • For a first time ComicCon I was disappointed

    by Vanessa on 11/7/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 1 out of 5

    Vendors seemed like flea market vendors. Merchandise wasn't exciting and I felt like I was walking around Pica Pica on the south side.

  • Frog Joke

    by Bam on 11/6/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    Three years ago, before my recent visit, I met the same celebrity at the Comicon again with a frog joke: What shoe size do frogs wear? Open Toad!

  • San Antonio Did it Big

    We got to meet so many people and celebrities. Got to buy some one of kind items. Great experience for the whole family.

  • Was Awesome

    My daughter, her boyfriend, and I had a great time. Now they have a positive memory to share amongst rhemselves.

  • First Timer

    by L. T. on 11/3/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    My son and I had a really good time. The vendors were great. The celebrities that were there were relevant to both myself and my teenage son. It was fun sharing in something he enjoys. I would attend this event again.

  • A good start!

    by Debra on 11/3/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 3 out of 5

    It had lots of great vendors but for the price of admission it needed to bring in higher profile celebrities like Alamo Comic Con did in 2019. That was awesome!

  • It was so awesome

    by Mel on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    Glad I got to meet with Skeet Ulrich, Matthew Lillard, & Jaime Kennedy can’t wait to see them again next year!!

  • Great con with lots of big names

    by TioPadrino on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 4 out of 5

    Perfect size convention with a little bit of everything. Wasn’t too crowded and was able to meet most of the voice actors and celebrities. Had enough time to look at all the vendors stands and go to the panels.

  • Best Comic Con I’ve been to so far

    by Nick on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    Meeting Matthew Lillard was a dream come true. My wife and I are big fans. It’s so surreal we got to see him Jamie Kennedy, Dante Bosco. It was really fun! They are human just like we are. It’s different from our perspective because we see them on TV but they’re genuinely awesome human beings. And it was an honor to meet all of them.

  • Different pace from other conventions

    by Doodleman01 on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 4 out of 5

    Although I did enjoy my experience of convention I did feel like there were not enough to do there even with the cast signing and sells it felt like there could have been more for the convention and better way to know where to go because I did get confused on where the entrance was

  • Amazing

    by Mike on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    Loved going to the comic con definitely one of the best ones I’ve been to

  • Amazing vendors and cosplayers

    by Analisa on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    I mainly went just for the vendors. Some vendors were hard to find so i think a better set up for the future should be thought up. For instance, i completely missed dave and busters. It just seems like vendors along the back side were least likely to be seen.

  • Awesome

    by Nerd on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 4 out of 5

    Was a little pricey to get in. Wish it was cheaper as we had to pay for parking. Lines to meet the celebs were okay. I had to pay for an extra day because they were no longer taking anybody for Matthew Lillards line. I didn’t realize the line was that bad. Got through everyone else with no issues. Needs more areas for people to sit down at and on Sunday they had closed most of the restrooms. There was only one time where I had no toilet paper but the girls in the next stall helped me out. Overall I enjoyed my time and really can’t complain too much as all the workers and volunteers were super nice

  • Amazing

    by Cookie13sosweet on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    Everything was amazing, it was so great to see Skeet, Matthew, and Jamie. So many great guest. Loved all the shops and artist. Would like to see less POP toys, more statues, comics, and clothing. Pop toys r great but they arent for everyone. Keep up the great work see you next year. 👍🏻

  • Long Lines

    by DecentlyHappy on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 4 out of 5

    This was a great event! There were just long lines to see the celebrities, but that is to be expected. I do think that there could have been better communication between the individuals working on the celebrity floor though. They would tell people that celebrity lines were capped and then turn around and someone else would be let in, and not the people with express passes. That seemed to be the most irritating thing to those that were turned away from lines only to see new people added after they had been asked to come back later.

  • Amazing Convention!

    by Barb's on 11/2/22Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center - San AntonioRating: 5 out of 5

    I made a day trip of this with some friends and it did not disappoint. The guests all seemed super nice and dealt with my fangirldom quite kindly (a special thank you to Mr. Ryan for being kind when I made a total goof of myself and to "Tsu" as well for the great "vibes") I look forward to coming back again next year! Well worth every penny and then some. :)
