WonderCon is organized by Comic Con International, the non-profit organization that also puts on San Diego Comic Con and the Alternative Press Expo. Normally held in San Francisco's Moscone Center, WonderCon's 26th anniversary convention had to move to Southern California for their 2012 show because the Moscone Center is currently undergoing renovations, and their only other choice was to cancel this year's WonderCon. 2011's WonderCon had over 49,500 attendees in the Bay Area but temporarily moving the regular show's 2012 outing over 350 miles south to Anaheim, CA, was a risk; but judging by early online registration numbers, as well as Saturday's significant crowds braving unusually heavy SoCal rain, it looks like the move has not hurt this annual springtime comic convention a bit -- and hopefully may even see a return or a spin-off convention in the future.
