WonderCon is one of the most nomadic of conventions, having originated in Oakland, moved to San Francisco, and then moved to Anaheim. Of course, the change from Anaheim to Los Angeles is similar to the move from Oakland to San Francisco - it's not a huge shift in terms of general location.

DC Entertainment stunned the industry today by announcing that the company would undertake a major restructuring -- but not the one that everyone had been expecting. Contrary to widespread rumors that said the company would be moving its entire operation to Los Angeles, DC announced that the publishing arm would stay in New York City, while the rest of DC Entertainment -- particularly movies, tele

The LA Times Hints That DC Comics Could Be LA Bound
Ever since Warner Bros. folded DC Comics into the Diane Nelson-helmed DC Entertainment, fans have wondered if the restructuring would result in the publisher and its many employees being transplanted from New York City to Los Angeles.
