I made an article a few years back that is now buried away, but it was about Fountain City Con. I couldn’t tell you what year that was, but I’m guessing it was their first year. Instead of pulling it up and drawing comparisons to FCC’s old self, I’ll keep …

Not *every* year, but most years me and friends try to make our 4 hour exodus to MoGameCon. This year was the first time in a long while that we did so. Unfortunately, we had to leave early. But we do have pictures and footage of our time in St.Louis …

Kansas City, MO is a place on the map that just keeps growing. There’s simply no reason why we shouldn’t have a gaming expo that grows into something rivaling the larger ones. But, maybe without all of the corporate rigamarole? Well we’re doing just that and if you live nearby, …

Naka-Kon 2022 just finished up and it’s time to discuss what makes Naka-Kon great. This time last year, I was reporting about Naka-Kon, but it felt a bit sad. We had more of an uncertain world and there seemed to be less attendees. This year, Naka-Kon appeared to be back …

Another year of Planet Comicon has come and we have the coverage to prove it. But I set out to do something different with it this time. I wanted to discuss whether or not I think it would be something that I would make the trip for if I still …

I’m not calling these a review this year. 2021 at conventions is full of anxiety and fear, but also excitement. I knew I wanted to go, I also knew I didn’t want to get sick. So, while I was invited as press for those 2 events, I only went one …

This last weekend was the first time since MoGameCon that I had traveled 3 hours to get to a con. Lucky for you, I’ll let you know if it’s worth it like I did with MoGameCon! Today I’m going to talk about the pros and cons of Air Capital Comic …

We went to TopCon last year when it was only a comic con. This year they decided to expand their convention into an entire pop culture convention. Did this make a difference? More than that, was the con better overall with a name change? Let’s dig into it and if …

We had attended MoGameCon 2018 last year and thought that that was as good as it could possibly get. Now, we back and fresh from MoGameCon 2019 and we have plenty to share. But right out of the gate, just know that they know how to really throw a party! …

While we haven’t been going to these every single year of their existence, we have been going for a few years now. This year was a big deal for the people who put the show together. But was the audience enamored at who they saw, did they get their hands …

Every year, about this time, we jump in the car and head for Overland Park. Overland Park is home to only of the only Japanese culture based conventions. Every year is another chance for it to be better or worse. So whether you’re Japanese yourself or an otaku, this convention …

Every year Naka-Kon takes place in the Midwest and is known far and wide as the go-to Japanese and Anime convention. People come from all over the place to meet up, see panels, participate in the cosplay competition, see live music, all in the name of Japanese culture. This year, naturally, …
