EPCON has been plagued by negative publicity since almost the beginning. Celebrities claiming they didn't get paid, exhibitors saying they didn’t get what they were promised…celebrities denying that they were booked. Listen to an exclusive interview Buzz Adams did with promoters of the event!
I was surprised on Monday to be forwarded a letter from Julian Lawler. He was upset that we were making “derogatory comments” about EPCon. He wanted a retraction and threatened legal action.
On Saturday night, El Paso Comic Con (EPCON) announced that Eddie Griffin would be hosting their new spring convention, El Paso In Comics (EPIC), happening on March 7th-9th. After this announcement was made, fans were quick to called out EPCON about Griffin's appearance.
Two of my favorite characters of The Walking Dead were scheduled to show up at this weekend’s 2013 El Paso Comic-Con but have cancelled. People warned me this would happen, but I just wanted to believe it so badly! Is anyone else wondering what happened?
