Denver Comic Con 2014: First Guest Announcement

Since last year's Denver Comic Con ended we have all been anticipating next years con.  Since the first year of Denver Comic Con we have seen this con grow like nothing we have ever seen before.  The first year DCC brought a total of 27,000 guests, and the second year there were over 60,000 guests placing DCC the 5th most populated con in the country.  This is amazing that this con has come this far in only two years.  We continue to watch this con grow in a town that we have grown up in and grown to love. We can't wait for many more years to come of one of the best cons we have ever experienced.



Upon receiving the newsletter today there were many guest announcements revealed that we know many of you will be excited for.  We were very pleased with the actors that were announced today. The first thing that we were pumped to hear is when DCC announced that Michael Rooker would be at Denver Comic Con next year.  We are stoked to see Michael Rooker and attend his panels.  His compelling work in The Walking Dead made fans everywhere fall in love with him.  Power Rangers fans, there are two guests this year that have been added that we are sure you will be excited for.  Walter Jones and David Yost will be coming to next years con, so if you are a fans of the Black and Blue rangers you can look forward to seeing them at next years event.  Trekkie fans, Walter Koenig is also coming to next years event.  He is known for his work in the Original Star Trek series in 1966, and he has also been in several Star Trek films.  He also is doing voice work in the new Star Trek video game. 



The next guest announced today was Mark Brooks.  If you don't know who Brooks is he is famous for his many works with Marvel Comics.  Mark has illustrated: The Avengers, Deadpool, The Amazing Spiderman, Heros Welcome, The Defenfers, and The X Men Legacy.  Marks work is astounding and we can't wait to see him at next years event.  Mark is an amazing artist and we cannot wait to have him sign our books, and to hear his wise input on being a future artist.  If you have not picked up any of his work I recommend doing so, its nothing short but amazing.  Having Mark is an excellent addition to next years Denver Comic Con.  Another artist that is coming that you might be excited for is Colleen Doran.  She is known for her art in several science and fantasy comic books.  She did work on Elfman, Sandman, and a distant soil.  Right now Colleen is currently working on The Vampire Diaries for DC Comics.  Denver Comic Con of course did not leave out any writers an editors in this amazing guest list released today.  They also announced that they would be having Peter Tomasi.  If you don't know Peter's work he is most known for his writing in Batman and Robin and Green Lantern.  You will know him for his famous editing in The Justice League.  We can't wait to meet Peter and hear about his knowledge in writing and editing several major comic book series. 



The last thing that Denver Comic Con announced in their newsletter is something we have all been
anticipating since the last con, price and availability on tickets. They announced that tickets will go on sale on Cyber Monday December 2nd.  Three Day passes are $50 a person and kids are $10 for 12 and under.  You can also purchase Speed passes at $150 per person.  Speed passes will grant you quicker access to the activities and panels. Because of the amount of people at Denver Comic Con every year we highly recommend getting the Speed Passes.  If you don't there is no way to guarantee that you will see a guest or be able to participate in an activity.  Last year we all learned how devastating it can be to wait to buy tickets.  Don't wait until last minute.  And also keep in mind that pricing on tickets goes up closer to the events so purchasing them now is the best way to avoid paying more for tickets.  Don't wait until last minute and get your tickets on Cyber Monday. 


We are looking forward to more guest announcements and of course, Denver Comic Con 2014.  Please join us for next years event, whether you are in state or out of state.  Make sure you are signed up for Denver Comic Con's newsletter to get all the updates on guests and attractions at next years event.  Waiting last minute is a guranteed way to not get into the event as many people experienced last year. Don't forget all the proceeds from Denver Comic Con go to Comic Book Classroom, a literacy program for Children.  Why not put your money towards a good cause and have a great time while doing it?  Don't miss next years Denver Comic Con!!!
