I had the privilege of attending the first ever HASCON this past weekend (September 8-10, 2017). This convention, right across from Hasbro’s headquarters (1 Hasbro Place, Providence, RI) is all things Hasbro! Yes, that means Star Wars, Transformers, Marvel, Nerf, G.I. Joe, My Little Pony, Dungeons & Dragons, and much, much more! Couldn’t make it?Continue reading “HASCON 2017 – The Premier Hasbro FANmily Event”

Garden State Comic Fest 2017
There are Comic Cons and there are Comic Fests. No, but seriously – Garden State Comic Fest does stand out from many comic book conventions (and trust me, I’ve been to a lot just within the last year).

I had been monitoring this show for a while because IContinue reading “The Great Philadelphia Comic Con (April 7-9, 2017)”
I Took A Photo For Jim Lee & Frank Miller (Big Apple Comic Con 2017)
My first con of the year! I’d never heard of Big Apple Comic Con before, but it proudly boasts that it’s the longest-running comic/sci-fi/fantasy/pop culture convention in NYC. After doing some reading, I found out that it had gone by many names over the years but is now run by Wizard (more in my blogContinue reading “I Took A Photo For Jim Lee & Frank Miller (Big Apple Comic Con 2017)”
