During the course of the next few days....and weeks to follow I will be posting updates about this year's Champion City Comic Con.

The first bit of news is....

There will be no Champion City Awards this year. This decision was made several weeks ago and a great deal of people were brought in on the discussion of a pretty good sized list of all the various reasons...about 12 reasons when all is said and done.

Some more people were informed...almost by accident as I haven't been very good at spreading the news up until now. Some creators just found out a few days ago....and there are a few just now learning of it as they read this.

And what it really comes down to is this.

The Champion City Awards was an experiment. One I convinced Scott to allow me to try after I was pissed off after watching last years Spike Awards.

The Champion City Awards was very successful in some regards and missed the mark on other levels and together Scott, Frank, and I thought it best to not have them this year.

Will they ever return? I can't answer that question at the moment. I'm not really sure what the answer is to be quite honest.

But in the mean time.....don't worry.....more news about the convention very soon and we will be replacing the Champion City Awards with some really cool ideas.

Maybe they will return and you just won't be a part of it? Did you ever think of that G-Man? You're not Invincible you know, we have that on tape! tongue.gif

If the Champion City Awards do return in the future I already know I will not be a part of it.

You are quite right, I am not Invincible....I'm not even Mr. Fantastic.
