Thousands of comic book fans will descend upon Mesa this weekend for Amazing Arizona Comic Con - the second year for this comic convention highlighting the latest and greatest from the world of comic books.
Jay Company Comics returns to Mesa to produce the newest installment, the 2012 Amazing Arizona Comic Con. With a fantastic debut show in 2011, promoters Jimmy and Bill Jay look to build on the strong attendance, a dynamic guest line-up, and industry buzz. With this year's event expanding to 3 days, Amazing Comic Con has quickly become the premiere destination for comic books and pop culture in the Southwest.
Jay Company Comics is a family run and operated comic book retail organization that focuses on the hottest collectibles in the market. Jay Company was founded by brothers, Bill and Jimmy S. Jay, in the spring of 1996, as they established an extensive mail order company and quickly became the #1 largest convention dealership in the nation. For nearly 16 years, you can visit their family at the multiple Jay Company booth locations at the San Diego Comic Con International, Wondercon, C2E2 Chicago, many of the Wizard Worlds, and other regional shows throughout the country.
Jay Company also produces the finest specialty comics for the modern age, with exclusive covers and other special editions. Studios and publishers that continue to work with Jay Company include Marvel Comics, Aspen Entertainment, Top Cow Productions, Zenescope, Udon Studios, Basement Comics, Big Dog Ink, Devil's Due, and Arcade Comics. Jay Company has also forged working relationships with a virtual A-list of comic artists from companies such as Marvel, DC, Image Comics, and more.
Over its 17 year history, JayCompanyComics.com have been employed as publishing consults for 12 Gates Productions, Avalon Press, Awesome Entertainment and Stan Winston Studios. Over two dozen titles were published by its subsidiary, ARCADE COMICS, this last decade.
In 2010, JayCompanyComics.com made the next logical progression from exhibiting, retailing, consulting, and publishing to convention promoting with the AMAZING ARIZONA COMIC CON. With a strong track record of successful comic events taking place in the last two seasons, partner Jimmy Jay looks to expand Amazing Comic Conventions in the near future.
