CLICK HERE FOR ME TELLING THIS STORY BEFORE.

But yeah, it was officially announced over the weekend that AWA was, indeed, moving out of the Galleria and down to Atlanta proper next year (and also, apparently, moving to a December date, which pretty much guarantees that there WON’T be any AWA 2024 comics).  I totally understand the need for the con to get into a different, bigger establishment… and believe you me, we WILL be discussing some of those causes in later pages, but it’s still a bit sad to me personally.

Speaking of which, I was also a bit bummed that they DIDN’T have the game room in the mall by the theater this year.  To again quote Past Me, I always got a kick out of them setting up the games in the actual spot where the Galleria’s old arcade used to be.  Granted, I also understand that using the theater lobby for Registration was probably a MUCH more practical use for that space, but still…

Oh, and as always, BUY THE SHIRT!
