SG2M Travels: Pacific Media Expo 2011
Nov 7th
[private]
This month just feels like one convention after another for the staff here at Speak Geeky To Me, and that is probably because it has been. So far in the past few weeks we’ve been to Long Beach Comic Con, LA’s Comikaze, and now we have yet another one coming up this week! However, this one is certainly a change of pace from the comic convention style of creators sitting behind booths and selling/signing stuff. Pacific Media Expo ’11 is this weekend in Inglewood (think more like LAX airport than the location Snoop Dogg might rap about) [or Westchester, More >

We at Speak Geeky To Me felt that Long Beach Comic & Horror Convention was so fun it could only be complimented by another comic convention exactly one week later. Too accomplish this, we must thank the fine people of Comikaze Expo for holding yet another Southern California comics convention so close afterwards (in date and proximity). Yes, that means you will find the amazing staff of Speak Geeky To Me in Los Angeles this weekend, attending the first ever Comikaze Expo! Swing by, pick up some swag, get stuff signed, and most importantly: if you see us, say More >

AM2 Announces Its Dates For 2012
Sep 14th
[private]
After what could be claimed as a very interesting first year, competing directly with California’s famous Anime Expo, AM2 has officially announced it’s dates for 2012. Thankfully it would appear someone in their camp had grown wise to the bad choice of going head to head with California’s largest Anime Convention, considering it exists just down the way at the Los Angeles Convention Center. So for 2012, AM2 will be held June 15-17 (Father’s Day Weekend) at the Anaheim Convention Center and adjacent hotels.
According to Chase Wang, an AM2 representative, “Fans are going to be so thrilled with this announcement. AM2was so More >
