If you’ve never been to a comic-con but have always been curious about attending, WonderCon is definitely a good step forward. The event is operated by the same folks that bring the grand daddy of all comic cons every year, San Diego Comic-Con. This is a smaller, but growing event with plenty to do and see to fill your whole weekend. Thank you WonderCon 2019 for an amazing weekend! We’ll see you next year April 10-12, 2020!
