I-ManiCon is the semi-annual gathering of fans of the television show The Invisible Man (2000). It is sponsored by The Invisible Man Fan Club, also known as The I-Maniacs. For more information about the fan club, please go to imaniacs.org .
The first I-ManiCon occurred in April 2002 in Baltimore; actors Mike McCafferty, Jason Makiaris, and Matt Thompson attended with their friend, Kym, and partied with us at a costume contest and dance with a live D.J.
I-ManiCon 2003 moved to October and Chicago. Mike, Jason, and Matt came again, and we all had a blast. Memorable moments include taking over a tour bus with Matt on the Magnificent Mile, and playing Aw, Craps with I-Man bucks at our a casino night.
In 2005, I-ManiCon moved to its current location, Los Angeles. After a full day of fun and games for the fans, Paul Ben-Victor, Eddie Jones, and Eddie's wife Anita met the group for dinner in a private room at an Italian restaurant.
At the fourth I-ManiCon in 2006, fans hit the star-studded jackpot: Vincent Ventresca, Eddie Jones, Mike McCafferty, Paul Ben-Victor, and Jason Makiaris all attended. (Shannon Kenny had something come up at the last minute, and couldn't make it.) The cast answered questions in a panel, then everyone switched to autographs and photos, and the fans treated the actors and their families to dinner.
I-ManiCon 2007 taught fans the meaning of the word flexible. Mike made himself available for a conference call on the day of the event, though he was lost in the mid-west, driving through miles of cornfields. Then on Sunday, he generously came straight over from the airport to meet with fans, clearly exhausted from his travels. And on Monday, Paul, along with a couple of friends in town to celebrate Paul's birthday, joined us for dinner in Santa Monica.
What will happen at the next I-ManiCon? Time will tell. Every year, the cast of I-Man makes a great effort to be able to spend time with us. We are determined that one day we will get Shannon Kenny there!
Will you be there?
