Show Notes
Movies based on comics are a billion dollar business.
Comics are a million dollar business, especially with racy adult material.
And many comic conventions bring in thousands of dollars, catering to a pop culture fan base.

On this episode Chris interviews KIDS COMIC CON co-founder, Alex Simmons, and this year's KCC'S Events Manager, Maureen Britt. The goal? To learn how to Alex the team of volunteers have managed to produce these shows that draw over 700 children and their families -- with no serious funding.
Listen and learn.
