Wizard World Drops Out Of Canada Comic Con

Wizard World Drops Out Of Canada Comic ConYou can still buy tickets. But there isn't an actual Wizard World to go to, and they've been taking down pages that are only available in the Google cache.

In November, Gareb Shamus announced he'd bought the Central Canada Comic Con, renaming it Wizard World Central Canada Comic Con, planned for the last long weekend in October in Winnipeg.

Manager of the show, Damien Paille, was quoted as saying "I am excited to be partnered with Wizard World as they will help bring the C4 Event to the next level for the fans. They will benefit the community exponentially."

Not any more it seems. However it seems the show is still going on. Michael Paille (probably some realation) has posted looking for assistance, with different ways you can help raise money. They'll even take air miles!

Gareb Shamus, Stephen Shamus, Peter Katz and Jerry Milani of Wizard World have not returned emails or replied to phone messages for a number of months now.
