Chatt, TN TIMMYCON - Memphis - TN

TIMMYCON! started out as a running joke around Memphis FanForce about a year ago.
We joked around for the next eight months, saying, "We can do that at TIMMYCON!", until one day Lin Workman went and made the thing a reality by nailing down a location. The SMT, who are friends and former sponsors of NIGHTMAREZ: STAGE FRIGHT, were generously loaned space by the NIGHTMAREZ crew, and the first-annual TIMMYCON! was made a reality.

TIMMYCON!, the world's first Micro-Con, will be held on Saturday, October 23rd, 2004 from noon to 5 pm at NIGHTMAREZ: STAGE FRIGHT .

TIMMYCON! will host a toy buy/sell/trade for local collectors of any toy line and comics. There will be local comic book artists in attendance with their creations, as well as members of the Mid-South Cartoonists Association who will be doing face-painting and caricatures. (There may be a small charge for caricatures. You've heard the term "starving artist", right?) There will be door prizes and a freebies/promo table. Other events may be added, so be sure to check back and see just what the hell we've come up with next.

 

Wow! That's great! Just went to the site and read up on it. That's awesome that something like this was put together by fans. That would definitly be a dream come true.

And here I thought "Timmycon" was based on the South Park character.
