    Default Oz Comic Con

    Anyone attending this event? There are some guests that might make me lug myself to the event.

    Looks like they have a fantastic guest lineup this year, but after the 2012 debacle, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people just don't bother.

    They sold more tickets than they had the capacity for, over 40000 tickets but only 20000 could get in.

    I don't know if anyone was refunded, but i know lines of people waiting to get in went for as long as 2-4hrs. Due to patrick stewart and stan lee being there.

    I was there at the Melbourne one and even people who had bought tickets for the weekend and had the wristband thingies couldn't get in on the 2nd day.
    One of the worst planned Cons I've ever been to.
