Las Vegas Comic Con Review 2014
The Amazing Las Vegas Comic Con 2014 DID NOT Disappoint!
The Following Article Was written by Alexis Flaum
This year’s show was filled with amazing handmade goods, beautiful artwork, local businesses, and heaps of famous authors and illustrators. The South Point hosted the ALVCC again this year, and it was the perfect venue to hold such a surplus of Las Vegans.
Comic Con was a great experience for all age groups, as there were so many great activities and interests for a vast variety of Comic Con goers. Local comic shop, Maximum Comics, had merchandise as well as games and fun to interest kids and adults alike.
I think one of the best parts of ALVCC was seeing all the artists and their amazing pieces of art. People handcrafted jewelry, pocket watches, figures, and so much more, and all of it was incredibly intricate and beautiful. ALVCC was an event that could be enjoyed even by someone who is not a comic book reader themselves, and I think that made it very unique.
When there can be a comic con that allows anyone to just come and enjoy themselves and see some really great things, what’s not to love? Overall, Amazing Las Vegas Comic Con is a fun, affordable event for anyone and everyone.
See You Next Time!

Randleman has had his problems in and out of the ring and cage, but as you can see from this interview, he is still trying to help the local Las Vegas community by offering wrestling camps for kids.
You will see in the interview, he was not happy with UFC’s Dana White or the Fertittas for not helping him with this project. Maybe next summer they will have a change of heart.
It was an inspiring day seeing all those little kids hitting the mats. This interview was this past summer in Las Vegas.
