Sure, it’s a must for comic book enthusiasts, but it also may have some appeal to folks looking for an alternative to all the holiday fare going down at the moment. The guest list is filled with artists and numerous vendors selling new and vintage comic books. We’re particularly jazzed about the costume contest. You’ll find all sorts of creative attire, as those participating compete for $220 in “con” cash and prizes. For more information, visit www.charlottecomicon.com. (Anita Overcash)
