Although the name has changed from SpringCon to MSP ComiCon, this classic, old-school-style comic book convention has been operating since 1988. It’s a very family friendly show that’s all about the comics. Artists, pencilers, inkers, writers—they make up the majority of the exhibitors, with a focus on local creators and shops. In addition, there is a Lego display, a prop-a-torium of movie memorabilia, gaming tournaments, and an Arkham Asylum Carnival with costumed characters for the kids.
