Who’s Aaron?  Aaron worked as a Character Designer on Invader ZIM.  You can see some of his work on his official website: www.HeartShapedSkull.com.

Now, we know what many of you are going to ask: Will Aaron have a table at the Dinner of DOOM?  Yes.

The additional Dinner of DOOM! Tickets will go on sale Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 7:00 PM Pacific Time.

We’re thrilled to welcome Aaron to our convention!

Would you like to share a BREAKFAST with GIR?

InvaderCON is thrilled to present our versions of the standard “celebrity meal” events from fan conventions: The Dinner of DOOM and I’m Makin’ Waffles Breakfast.

Thanks again to everyone who bought your tickets already. InvaderCON II: DOOMCON is going to be an AMAZING experience!

INVADERCON, THE INVADER ZIM FAN CONVENTION, WILL RETURN THE SUMMER OF 2012 IN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.
By popular demand, the convention will happen “one more time” and features the voices of Dib, Gaz, Gir, and Zim along with series creator Jhonen Vasquez.

(Los Angeles, CA, September 15, 2011) InvaderCON II: DOOMCON will take place at the Torrance Marriott South Bay (in Southern California) July 28-29, 2012. The convention is a sequel to the “one time only” InvaderCON that attracted one thousand Invader ZIM fans to Atlanta, Georgia in March of 2011. It will feature voice talent and production staff from the popular cartoon along with the series creator: Jhonen Vasquez.

Scheduled to appear are the voices of the four main characters from Invader ZIM: Andy Berman (Dib,) Melissa Fahn (Gaz,) Rikki Simons (Gir,) and Richard Horvitz (Zim.) Joining them will be series scribe Eric Trueheart and (in a rare convention appearance) creator Jhonen Vasquez.

Tickets go on sale Sunday, September 18, 2011 on the website: www.invadercon.com. Weekend admission to the event is $50, but discount passes can be purchased in advance. One day passes will be available at the door for $30 (Saturday) and $25 (Sunday.) Tickets for premium events such as The Dinner of DOOM! and the I’m Makin’ Waffles! Breakfast will go on sale later in 2011.
