Its the comic-con teaser trailer that emerged from the panel at San Diego Comic-Con last summer.

Momocon is officialy in its first year, but it previously was previously held under the name "Techwood Con" last year. The orgaizers had a split due to differing visions of the convention, gaming focus + charging for admission vs. anime & gaming + free admission.

Well now, I don't feel so bad about not having heard of this before.

Sorry for the lack of response Auraptor, but I was at the con during your last post.

Anyhow, Momocon was a complete success. Attendees numbered over 700 according to the official count.
The SouthEastern Browncoats had a great time meeting
other Firefly fans and spreading the 'good word' to those unfamilar with the show.

No worries. I had hoped that I'd have more time to loiter...err... check out the goings on down there, but alas, I had to work. Glad all went well!
