Doc Con

Overview

Doc Con is an annual convention centered around the pulp character Doc Savage who was created in 1933. It has been held in the latter part of the year since 1998, initially circulating around the houses of the founder, Rob Smalley, and his partners in crime. The convention doesn't have a website per se, but is active on the Arizona Doc Con page on Facebook.
