Albuquerque comic conventions take place each year. Two of the largest are the Albuquerque Comic Expo, which happens annually in June, and the Albuquerque Comic Con, which occurs each January.

Comic conventions bring together comic books from classic to new, as well as comic book artists and writers, media artists, vendors and fans. Fans often dress in costumes, and contests celebrate the best of the best. With aisles and aisles of comic books, vendors and activities, a comic convention is a fun way to spend an afternoon. Comic cons have something to offer whether you are new to the world of comics or a serious collector.

The Albuquerque Comic Con takes place January 12 and 13, 2013.
The Albuquerque Comic Expo takes place June 21 - 23, 2013.
