We asked fans what they thought about the 2007 Wizard World Tour. Here's what they said:
Hello my name is Sheldon and I am from Chicago. I attended the Wizard World Tour when they came to the Chi earlier this year at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center and it was dope. I never thought that I would see so many things in one place. I only attended one day of the convention, but that one day felt like an eternity. I spent every single dollar I had and I didn't expect to do that at all. I met alot of artist and writers, got autographs, I also took pictures with some of the crowd who were dressed up, and I meet and made alot of new friends. Going in I never thought I would enjoy it that much, but I did and it was great. In 2008, I will be back but this time I will be their for the whole tour, I will be taking vacation on those 3 days. I have already started saving money for the event, even started another savings account. I hope this helps and see you next year.

For the past 2 summers I've attended WW Chicago, and my experience there has been nothing short of amazing! Since I've been going to WW I have not only found just about every collectible that I've ever wanted, I've got to meet some of the coolest celebrities! Kevin Smith, Erica Durance, and the Dark Knight panel was the best yet! I even got to share a elevator ride with Mark Miller, who wrote Civil War. And he is such a nice guy. I think the only think that would make WW for me absolutely perfect is if you guys could get Joss Whedon and some Buffy/Angel/Firefly alum in for some autographs or a Q & A. Think you could swing that for me? All i know is every year it gets better for me. So i cant wait to see what you guys have in store this year! See you then!

I made it to my first WW this year and I'm counting down the days until the next. Texas was incredible. I don't think I'll ever forget some of my experiences there. It's unlike any con that I've ever been to because you can actually talk to your favorite writers and artists. Trust me, Wizard World cons are the ones you want to go to.
