Doc Con XII
Contribute Each Year to the Planning of the
Annual Doc Con Gathering!
We Would Love To Hear Your Ideas.

The annual Doc Savage Convention gathered together for the first time on October 24, 1998. The convention also known as Doc Con is the brainchild of Rob Smalley who together with Jay Ryan, Paul Cook and Courtney Rogers have hosted the event each year in Arizona. Traditionally held the second Saturday of each November, Doc Con attracts residents from around the country, for a weekend of planned Doc Savage events as well as discussions and camaraderie.

Doc Con XII will be held November 14, 2009 by Rob Smalley in Chandler Arizona. While, Doc Savage and Doc Savage Magazine began in 1933 and turned 75 in 2008, Pat Savage made her debut in Brand of the Werewolf in 1934 and 2009 will mark her 75th anniversary. While the theme may be Doc Savages single-action six-shooter toteing cousins anniversary, the emphasis will be on expanding our Doc Savage knowledge base. In Rob Smalleys own words:

In a way I think we returned to our roots at Doc Con 11 thanks to those that provided us insights into people and history relating to the Doc Savage era and publishing realm. All week I've been saying to myself, "that's what you would do at a Doc Savage Conference". I thought it was great and made this year's Con unique from all others. I would like everyone to consider continuing this theme of learning segments at Doc Con 12.
