Upcoming horror/sci-fi conventions in Southern California?
Like the title says, i'm wanting to find out if there are any horror/sci-fi conventions coming up anytime in the next 4-5 months in Southern California. I know the Fango convention was last weekend, but any others? Thanks.

I'll second the San Diego ComicCon, if you don't mind crowds. It pretty much has everything. The dealers floor is worth the price of admission.
There's always lots of "big names" scheduled for events, and some show up unannounced at the last minute. Quite often you can run into them (literally, as I did once to Walter Koenig) as they are wandering around the convention or are a guest at some dealer's table.
It's a madhouse, but I try to go every two or three years. It's a blast.
