I am attending LFCC as part of trip to the UK. I am coming from South Africa, and I bought a gold pass so that I could get the full experience. I have not attended a Comic Con before so I have no idea what to expect. I'll be honest, reading the posts regarding disappointment from last year is quite disheartening. I have spent a ton of money on my trip (if you consider the exchange rate: 1GBP = 19ZAR), and I really want this to be an event not to be forgotten. I guess what I'm saying is that I hope it will be worth the money I'm spending, and that I won't have to wait in queues for hours or feel like "cattle", as I read somewhere, and that I'll be able to rest in the chill room.
