Now, let’s talk about the extras—because FanExpo isn’t just about panels and celebrity sightings. If you’re a gamer, you absolutely have to hit up the Gaming Zone. They’re setting up an incredible retro arcade with all the classics, plus there’s a massive area dedicated to tabletop games. Trust me, you could lose hours here—especially if you join one of the D&D campaigns they’re hosting.

It's a vibrant space where you can meet comic book artists, illustrators, and creators, and pick up some unique, one-of-a-kind art. Whether you're looking to add to your collection or just want to see some incredible talent up close, Artist Alley is the place to be. I'll be at booth PR5, don’t be a stranger—come say hi and check out my work in person!
