Your weekend plans are set: HEROESCON

Looking for something to do this weekend? Well look no longer because the 2010 DC Nation tour pulls into Charlotte, North Carolina for Heroes Convention from June 4th - 6th at the Charlotte Convention Center.

Hi, I'm DCU Senior Story Editor Ian Sattler. You might remember me from other convention posts such as, "The guy who was stoked to get doughnuts in Seattle" or "The guy with the party hats in Baltimore". I fly to Charlotte tomorrow at dawn (seriously why do they make flights that leave so early?) and I am am thrilled to be attending Heroes again. This is one of the best shows in the country for fans to come and meet their favorite creators and this year's guest list is pretty stacked. Take a look:

FRANCO AURELIANI, MARK BAGLEY, BRIAN BOLLAND, BERNARD CHANG , CLIFF CHIANG, CULLY HAMNER , SCOTT HAMPTON , TONY HARRIS , JEREMY HAUN , GREG HORN, ADAM HUGHES , JAMAL IGLE , KEVIN MAGUIRE , DUSTIN NGUYEN , MIKE NORTON , STEPHANE

ROUX , BILLY TUCCI , ETHAN VAN SCIVER & BILL WILLINGHAM

As usual we'll be hosting our industry-leading, not technically but theoretically award-wining panels on Saturday and Sunday. If you can make it to the show please come out and see us. It'll be fun, I promise.

Sunday, 12-1pm, room 209
