Set for a two-day extravaganza Jan. 15-16 at Ford Park, organizers of the Southeast Texas Comic Com have canceled the event.

Organizers issues the following statement via Facebook:

"Due to the ongoing pandemic and recent outbreak of the Omicron variant of Covid-19, we must cancel Southeast Texas Comic Con 2022. Omicron has decimated our staff and volunteer ranks; we simply do not have the necessary people to make a show of the magnitude we had planned happen. We only do shows if we have the staff to make the event run smoothly - and more importantly, safely - and Covid has made this impossible.

We were very much looking forward to our inaugural year in Beaumont; the support from the city and convention bureau, local hotels and businesses, and all of the area’s fans has been tremendous. You made us feel welcome, and for that we are grateful. We will continue to work hard to bring awesome events to the southern US; please see our website,
vxvevents.com, for all of our upcoming shows.

Refunds for tickets will begin to be processed tomorrow, January 11th. Refunds for all vendor and artist booths will be sent later this week.

Please stay safe, and we hope to see you soon.
