Welcome to our new feature: comic cons we wish we could attend! If you asked us what our dream job would be, it would probably be professional comic con reporters. Attending comic cons around the nation, previewing them before the event, and reviewing them after. We love visiting new cities…

A First for Us Well, the unthinkable happened. During the summer, Star Wars Celebration tickets went on sale. We didn’t purchase any. For the first time since Celebration IV, it looks as if we are missing Star Wars Celebration Anaheim 2020. We don’t want to miss Celebration, but a combination…
