Re: Fan Expo Vancouver - April 21st & 22nd

Its hard to say since this is Vancover's first event, but for what its worth "likes" on facebook don't translate to crowds.

The C4 facebook group has 1100 members yet the event draws 15,000 to 20,000 attendees each year.

Re: Fan Expo Vancouver - April 21st & 22nd

Just out of curiosity do all celebrity guests charge for autographs at Fan Expo?

I'd have to guess Toy Gremlin, but I suspect most of them will be. The only ones that might not would be voice actors depending on their individual deals.

Also comic artists don't charge autograph fees

they do - and it isn't cheap. Some even charge for you to take a pic with them.

And some will only sign pics that you buy there (and no other merchandise).

Thanks for the responses guys!

I wonder how much Garry Chalk is charging for an autograph.

Not all but some do, it's usually listed what they are charging.
