Heroes Con opened Friday at the Convention center in Charlotte, North Carolina to moderately-sized, but enthusiastic crowd. Among the day's big draws were British comics writer Warren Ellis. His early afternoon signing saw a line that traversed the length of the concourse where his table was situated and where fans had begun lining up before convention doors opened at 11:00 AM. From there, it was to a Q&A session hosted by Heidi MacDonald.

Actress Rosario Dawson, on hand to promote her "OCT: Occult Crimes Taskforce," took a seat at the 12 Gauge Comics booth to little fanfare and was a very-down to Earth presence on the convention floor.

Big floor draws included Adam Hughes and J.G. Jones, Ed McGuiness and Dexter Vines and George Perez, signing at the ACTOR booth.
