The Convention Fans Blog

Dragon*Con is one of our favorite conventions here at The Convention Fans Blog. I’ve been attending every year since 2005, and 2011 is shaping up to be yet another great year. Although the convention isn’t happening until Labor Day, there are already more than 60 guests named (with more to come). Below is a look at some of the guests currently scheduled to attend, broken down by fandom and such.

As always, guests are subject to change. For example, I think Firefly/Chuck‘s Adam Baldwin has cancelled for the past two years. So, bear that in mind.
