it's definately worth the trip
I don't know, one of my closest friends Sam tried to persuade to go to this years Comic Con (if it already passed, put "had tried") but there was/still is some hesitancy on my part because it is well known that there is a huge split between American Comic book fans and Japanese comic book fans and I really hate dealing with those elitist american comic book fans that think that american comics are the end all be all. I have enough problems as it is dealing with fellow anime fans (some are just too wierd to carry a real conversation with them) so as you can imagine I am in no place to talk with comic book fans.

Also I would like to mention that with AX there was no hesitancy because I knew that everywhere there are anime fans and no other, with other conventions there is the possibility of "other".

Also on other news....AX 2004 made it on the top of the page in anime news network
