Wizard World is adding shows to their list for next year and Portland, Oregon is the newest. The Oregon Comic Con looks to be one of the first comic book shows taking place early in 2013.

The announcement:

Wizard World, Inc. (PK.WIZD) announced the latest addition to its schedule of pop culture conventions as Wizard World Oregon Comic Con will debut, February 22-24, 2013, at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland.  The trio of Norman Reedus, Sean Patrick Flanery and David Della Rocco, who starred in the cult classic The Boondock Saints, and superstar artist Greg Horn (“Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark,” “X-Force”) are the first special guests scheduled to attend.

Additional celebrities, artists, exhibitors and other attractions will be announced in the coming weeks.

“We are thrilled to be adding Wizard World Oregon Comic Con to our 2013 schedule of events and introduce a new region to our exciting shows,” said John Macaluso, Wizard World CEO.  “The city of Portland and Oregon Convention Center are a great fit, and the timing is ideal on the convention calendar.”

Wizard World Oregon Comic Con is currently the first event on the 2013 Wizard World slate, which also includes shows in Philadelphia (May 30 – June 2) and Chicago (August 8-11), with dates for others to be determined.  The 2012 schedule continues this month in Columbus, Ohio (Sept. 28-30), Austin, Texas (Oct. 26-28) and New Orleans (Nov. 30 – Dec. 2).
