CG Fans Organize Fan Gathering At 2003 Comic-Con!
Conventions are great places to meet creators...and they're also great places to meet fellow fans! That's why CrossGen readers have created the CrossGen Fan Gathering. Organized by fans for fans, this is your chance to meet each other -- and CrossGen creators -- at the 2003 San Diego Comic-Con International.

Here's all the info you'll need to join this fun event:


The CrossGen Fan Gathering

Date: Friday, June 18, 2003
Time: 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
Place: SDCC Panel Room 19
Hosts: CrossGen Council (Phoenix and Southern California Chapters)

The CrossGen Fan Gathering is an event organized to help fans connect during the convention experience. Fans from all over the world who have found the CrossGen message boards have developed true friendships through a common love of comics. Early on it became clear that fans had an interest in meeting one another in person. This realization resulted in the formation of the CrossGen Council fan group, which has several active chapters across the country and around the globe. Since then, the CrossGen Council has tried to bring CGE fans together at conventions through fan events like the CGE Fan Breakfast or CGC Fan Gatherings. The San Diego Comic-Con CrossGen Fan Gathering will give all CGE fans in attendance an opportunity to learn about the CrossGen Council and the CrossGen Council Fan Awards, as well as the chance to meet with other CrossGen fans, CrossGen creative staff and other great people. Most important of all, this event offers fans the chance to make connections with their fellow fans. So if you're attending the 2003 San Diego Comic-Con, stop by the meeting -- there will be fun, prizes and memories to last a lifetime!
