EMERALD CITY COMICON ‘08 - AN OVERVIEW
The Emerald City ComiCon is a 2-day long Seattle-wide comics convention hosted in the Washington State Trade and Convention Center. The convention, like Sakuracon, centers around merchandise booths, artists booths, and seminars. However, at ECC, cosplay/costuming makes a very limited appearance, animation is not shown, and there are no concerts or other massive events. ECC is a much smaller festival, with much less hype, and much cheaper (depending on how you spend your money) than Sakuracon. While this all so, the ECC is a convention that has much to offer in the areas outside of Japanese manga/anime, especially in the realms of superhero, sci-fi, alternative, and avant-garde comics from the States.
We at BrokenAnime wish that this following overview will offer you an accurate insight into the ECC, and hopefully encourage you to attend if haven’t in the past, and perhaps expand your horizons into the many facets of American comics. This overview will cover the basic descriptions of the ECC, then will review the great aspects as well as what we’d like to see in the future from the ECC.
If you don’t like reading too much, you can skip down to the bottom of the text sections and read “TO SUM IT ALL UP” instead.
