Hi
I know this is on the board somewhere, but I can't seem to find it right now..
But I was wondering if there are any conventions in Europe where you can get autographs?
I know about Ring Con in Germany and the Starfury conventions in the UK, but can you point me to some others?
Thank you! =D

Showmasters and Massive Events are essentially the same company. SM run the signing events, and ME run the weekend conventions.
Starfury run weekend cons.
I've been to events from all of these and they're usually well run. The signing events are a lot more manic than the cons, and you get less interaction with the guests (usually).
There's also the Expo and Memorabilia events (run by the same company) - they are also manic (9 out of 10 times)!
