“Attendance is around 700-800 people at the day-long event and there are about 55 to 60 professionals and exhibitors on hand. But one of the great things to come out of KCC is that it makes kids want to make comics. The first year of KCC we had a kid named Jessica Weiss, who came to the show from New Jersey along with her Dad and they both had a good time. The next year I hear from her that she wants to rent a table and sell her own comic. And now this year they’re back with another issue of the comic, it’s called Geezerville. I love that, we’re empowering kids.”
