Phoenix Comicon Moves Away From Having Volunteers To All-Paid Staff

Phoenix Comicon has exploded in popularity — sort of like the way Superman’s home planet blew up but better.

After initially focusing on what’s called the Blue Ribbon Army for volunteers, the group has settled on an all-paid staff model.

Matt Solberg is convention director of Phoenix Comicon and is with us to talk more about it.
