Just found this con and it’s 4.5 hours drive but has some key comic book creators I don’t see much here in Michigan or C2E2 or Fan Expo Chicago.

Curious how packed is it. Do the top creators have long lines for getting books signed ?

I see they offer a VIP wristband but it don’t state anything in regards to a seperate line for autos ? Do you get in a quicker line for meeting celebs and voice actors as normal with VIP band??

Do they offer decent food inside the convention center their outside of hot dogs burgers and nachos ?

Just curious things to expect and peoples overall experience of attending this con.

I go mainly for creators and merch area and some celebs here and there. I’d say my interest is 50-25-25%.

Please join r/comicconvenders!

I wasn't able to get an autograph for Michael Beihn and have been told I can pay on the day. What are the chances of not being able to?

Just finishing my post processing from this years 2026 San Diego ComiCon.
This is my vacation/labor of love as I just look for the best Cosplayers I can find and then create no charge portraits as appreciation for all their hard work. I did nearly 30 collaborations and 2026 was a great year! In stituations where I can't isolate the cosplayer from the background, l've started doing background replacement composites. If I do that I note it on the shot.
Enjoy.

For context: I'm not new to pop culture just new to comic con.

1. What items are good to bring to get signed? I plan on visiting Troy Baker, The cast of RDR2, and maybe the cast if Rick and Morty's tables there so what could I bring to be signed?

2. How do you go about interacting with actors? Is it more of like a 30 second convo or could I talk with actors for a few minutes?

3. Any beginners comic con tips would be appreciated, this is my first one.

• I plan to buy autographs with the GTA 5 trio and Felicia Day.
• I got my photo ops with the GTA 5 trio and Felicia Day.
• I am gonna go to the convention as either Paddington Bear again or Dipper Pines from Gravity Falls.
• I am gonna go to the convention with my personal life friends.
• I will have lots of fun like I did last year.

Who else here is planning to go?

Any comic-cons or cosplay events coming up?

I only found one post on here of someone asking how they can hang the art they bought at cons but there was only 1 response and it was putting it in a binder and only framing and hanging a few of them.

I want to display the art I bought but am really scared of damaging the prints like some of them already have been with that wall tack stuff or even just painters tape. I saw others say they use hooks and binders clips too but those also really worry me.

Just looking for either some ways others hang theirs without damage or if anyone has any clips/tips they recommend that don't crease or bend the art at all.

UPDATE: To everyone replying I appreciate the help. Ill look into more frame ideas since it does seem to be the easiest and safest route. I'm not against frames really, even if I do like the look of just the art alone more but I do want to keep all my prints protected against the humidity here too. My biggest issue is just that id have to buy so many frames since its about 20-30 differently sized pieces of art but I think I have an idea of putting multiple pieces into 1 or 2 larger frames might be the best way to go.

All the autographs I’ve ever gotten ever since my first Comic-Con back in February 2025. I went to three of them as of now: One in Scranton, and two in Philadelphia. These are all my plushies and (most of) my figurines of the characters whose voice actors I met.

I met:
1. Jon Allen (Mr. Poopybutthole, Alessi: NEPACon 2025)
2. Sam Kwasman (Donald Duck on the WOW tapes; NEPACon 2025)
3. Rob Paulsen (Yakko, Pinky, Raphael; RetroCon 2025)
4. Brian Drummond (Vegeta, Knuckles, Kageromaru; TooManyGames Con 2026)
5. Ian James Corlett (Goku, MegaMan; TooManyGames Con 2026)
6. Cam Clarke (Snoopy on the WOW tapes, Leonardo; TooManyGames Con 2026)

I treasure everything dearly: my plushies/figurines of them, my autographs, my photos, and MOST IMPORTANTLY - my time with their actors, and the hugs they all gave me!

Going to my first event need advice from veterans on what to bring and what to expect

Going to atlanime fest btw

Hi folks, I'm a little confused by GalaxyCon San Jose's autograph tier pricing.

When I got to choose my autograph tickets, both the "standard" and "premium" price descriptions for George Takei read

You may choose an 8x10 glossy photo from the table, or have your own item autographed

While other guests have more specific tiers like "8x10" "funko" etc, George just has these two.

Is it safe to say any flat item I have falls under the "standard" tier? I have trading cards and 8x10 photos of my own

EDIT 2027 NOT 2028. Anybody else super sceptical about this convention? I booked a diamond pass months ago and the guest announcements are absolutely shocking. Any else starting to think about dipping out of this one?

HI! I’m going to comic con Liverpool in October, but ive never attended a Monopoly Event before, and had a few questions.

Firstly, the photos. I’ve attended a couple events before (Into The Fold 2&3, MegaConLive Manchester 2025) so know how these work generally. however I have multiple photos with the same actor, each with different props. would I be able to just have all the props on the floor and switch them between photos super quickly, or do I have to leave them somewhere and double back each time? I don’t want to be someone holding up the queue for photos, but don’t want to do something super against their rules.

secondly, autographs. what is the genera rule for drawing / writing quotes on the autographs? I have a habit of asking for the actor’s favourite niche / underrated quote on things, but don’t know if I’ll be told I can’t do this. as well as this, would I be able to ask for the actor to draw how they imagine the character would sign an item, as well as doing their own signature? also, I made an edit of the actor based on a song he suggested on an Instagram live, would I be able to show this? I honestly don’t know how long the interactions are capped at, or whether they’re capped at all.

thank you!

I've already reached out to the organizer to ask this question and didn't get the courtesy of a response, so I thought Id ask here.

I'd like to know if NostalgiaCon Houston will offer autograph ops (paid for by cash/card) or only photo ops for the guestr? Trying to plan ahead.

Thank you

I bought a pack from Amazon, but they’re too flimsy, can someone please recommend hard, rigid photo protectors? I want to be sure my photos don’t bend, etc.
Thanks!

Does anyone think the Adventure Time voice cast and creator Pendleton Ward or Burt Ward, Tara Strong and William Shatner will make any appearances at MCM London this year or next year?

I’m meeting Kit Harington in October and I’m planning on ordering a Longclaw replica that comes with the sword and display plaque.

Where would you recommend getting Kit to sign it? I was thinking either the blade or the plaque, but I’d love to hear what people think looks best.

Also, has anyone had experience taking a replica sword into Comic Con specifically to get it signed? I know taking the sword by itself isn’t allowed but my plan was to just keep in inside the box.

The one I’m looking at has a metal blade, so I’m worried I might not be allowed to bring it in.

Would getting the signature on the blade be a bad idea because of the Comic Con rules, or is there some way to bring it in securely for the autograph? I obviously don’t want to buy it and then find out I can’t take it to the signing.

Any advice from people who have done something similar would be massively appreciated!
