CombatCon’s exclusive class in Jedi lightsaber technique and movie moves returns for 2012.

CombatCon, the most kick ass hybrid convention out there (literally), has opened registration for their 2012 event. With a nice discount on ticket price for folk who register by end of January.

CombatCon was new for 2011, mixing steampunk programming with horror, fantasy, and science fiction events and connecting them all with the western martial arts. They’re using a new online fundraising tool to call on convention fans to help them meet the basic costs so they can hold a second event in 2012.

This hybrid multi-genre convention mixes steampunk, horror, pirates, sci-fi, and fantasy all with the unifying element of the Western Martial Arts. We’re pretty big on steampunk here at Convention Fans Blog so let me tell you that the steamy events scheduled so far for CombatCon 2011 are looking pretty sweet.
