IT HAS BEEN AN
AMAZING SEVEN YEARS, and it is all thanks to you! The Cincinnati Comic Expo has grown from a small, one-day show into
a multi-day event utilizing over 200,000 square feet of convention space at the Duke Energy Center. If you had told us seven years ago
we would be hosting the legendary Stan Lee, we would have told you to keep
dreaming. Despite the odds, we are hosting the “Godfather of Comics.” Mr. Lee has selected Cincinnati Comic Expo as his final signing appearance in the Midwest, and thus validating our Expo as a premiere event within the comic book convention industry. The growth, achievements, and accolades that Cincinnati Comic Expo has received are due to the
artists, exhibitors, contributors, and most of all, the fans and
attendees. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to a little show
that grew up so fast. We hope that you enjoy our 2016 event, and we look forward to speaking with the
fans and exhibitors. If you see us walking the floor, don’t be shy, come say hello. We want to
hear your questions and input as well as hear from those of you who were here since the beginning. Finally, we want to invite you to join us in 2017. Save
the date for the 8th annual Cincinnati Comic Expo to be held the weekend of Sept 22-24, 2017! Every year we develop new show features and host exciting guests. After Stan Lee, it will be hard to get much better, but we are aiming high and have already started reaching for the sky.
Sincerely,Andrew Satterfield
