For the Minnesota Star Tribune

Is the month of May big enough for two comic book conventions? That's like asking: Is the Batmobile fast? Of course it is.

Just two weeks after the traveling Wizard World Comic Con hit Minneapolis, it's time for our own homegrown geek fest to blast off.

The re-christened MSP ComicCon (formerly SpringCon) — yes, that's a lot of "cons" — takes place May 16-17 at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds grandstand ($12, www.mcbacomicons.com).

To get you geared up for more cosplay action, take a look at some of our favorite costumed fans from Wizard World.
