New York Con and Wizard Big Apple Con
So who scheduled their con first? Two comic conventions in NYC within a week of each other?

NYCC were first, then Shamus announced that Big Apple would run THE SAME WEEKEND, then they decided to move it to one week before

How does that make any sense? Doesn't that just take away money from both cons?

NYCC was first, Wizard thought they could topple the giant that is NYCC, they were wrong so they caved and moved the date.
What sucks is Wizard cancelled the NJ show that was like 5 mins from my house.
