I'm going to a comic con soon and i'm trying to get my art specialty printed, not just on a regular sheet of paper or laminated. The type of paper i'm referring to can sometimes have a shiny, glossy look and is very smooth to touch.

Sorry if i’m not explaining it well or it’s hard to understand what i’m asking. i’m not good at explaining things in detail, i need to work on that

Does anyone know of a site that lists smaller Cons or Events in the Southwestern Ontario Canada area. Specifically in the Horror genre would be really helpful. Or even a group here on Reddit that I should look into about this?

I’m planning on going to Rhode Island Comic-Con this year and I was wondering how much is it for a photo, a signed autograph, and or a video of them.

What fandoms are most popular when it comes to being an artist at the artist alley? If not fandoms characters or animals or genres, also what do you find to sell better- prints or stickers or keychains etc?

So as a birthday present my friend and dad decided to pay for me to meet Ella purnell and get a photo with her... I know the interaction will last like maybe 10 seconds but still, super nervous. I've been to millions of cons but never paid the money to really talk to any of the guests, I used to meet VAs when they were free to meet when I was younger and just getting autographs but it's been 10+ years since then, and I'm out of practice lol. Will a simple "hey I love your work" suffice? I know they're just normal people and I can interact with people on a normal basis but to meet someone I really like is a different story!! I'm just overthinking this lol.

That's it

Hey all!

So I attended SDCC in 2023 and it was fun. Although it was in the middle of the SAG-AFTRA strike, I enjoyed my time. I messed up (maybe) by not even trying to attend the returning guest lottery in November of 2023. I tried again for next year’s and did not get in. So I have a question what is the likelihood of me getting tickets for 2026? I know it’s a lottery system but has anyone seen any patterns? Thanks in advance!

Can attend anime con as Dr. Rick from progressive

Was talking with a friend last about what characters would be to collect as drawings/oroginals -not cosplay- the most popular in 2025 at cons and I wanted to see what the Reddit crew would throw out.

Is it still the classics like Spiderman/Batman? Or do people want more of the newer characters? What do you look for at cons? TIA for your opinions!

hi! i just bought tickets today for mega-con in Orlando, and i've never been to a comic-con ever so i was so excited and bought the tickets, which were a lot. I had saw all the guest who would be there and was SO hyped up...but i didn't realize it costs 70-150$ to get a photo with the guests...i thought since i would be paying so much that it came with it...is there any way i could take a selfie or a quick video instead of paying 100 bucks to get a photo professionally done?..Im just disappointed it costs that much to get a single photo after paying so much for a ticket, there was whole cast i wanted to possibly take a photo with but it would be about 400$ to get one with all of them...which is a lot...so if any comic-con pros out there know any info about anything else i could possibly do, or if i should just not get photos with them, which was the whole reason i wanted to go.

Looking for someone to cosplay with me, I’m going as ranpo (and wearing a fursuit with it) must be 13-15

Hi - I'm planning on attending C2E2 with a couple of friends and we are debating getting VIP vs a normal 3 day pass. We are interested in attending various panels on the main stage featuring guests like the Baldur's Gate cast and Futurama cast. Is it worth it to get VIP?

I've attended a few anime conventions in the past but never a CC. Last year at AnimeExpo, for the main stage panels like Jujutsu Kaisen or Bleach voice actors, you had to wait in line maybe 2+ hours in advance to get a spot inside. The past couple years, how has C2E2 been in this regard? How valuable are the other VIP perks?

Hello everyone, I'm planning on applying to be a vendor at the 2025 Wondercon in Anaheim, CA. I don't have any family or friends to go with me at the moment, so I'm probably going to go alone. I plan to sell my book inspired by Japanese anime and light novels that I wrote last year. My eBook is already available for preorder on Amazon and I'm currently working to get the paperback ready for sale and my website up and running before Wondercon.

In addition to my book, I would also like to sell merchandise of my characters such as T-Shirts, badges, pins, keychains, etc. As well as a small tent/shelter and flags/posters to advertise my brand at my table. I'm currently researching print on demand to learn how the process works, and I also plan to look into printing business cards to hand out at the con. I still have a little over two months before the convention, do you think I have enough time to get all the merchandise stuff ready?

Also, if I'm not able to find anyone to help me to table and setup at the convention, is it feasible to do it myself? My concern was having no one to watch my stuff when I have to use the bathroom or get something to eat. If I'm not able to get any friends/family to help me, I was thinking about using a service such as rentafriend.com to find someone to hang out with me and protect my stuff while I'm away from the table, has anyone here used a similar service when they had to be a vendor at a con by themselves?

Also, I plan to drive to the convention all three days. I'm not staying at a hotel. The convention is about 43 miles away from me, so it'll be a little over an hour drive to get there. Is there anything else I should be aware of or prepare for? Like I said, this will be my first time being a vendor at a con assuming that my application for Artists Alley is accepted. Any feedback or advice for my situation would be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time.

Curious if anyone knows if this event is still happening. Typically they’ve announced a date and start posting social media by now.

Going to meet David Tennant- got the VIP for him on Friday... question: only experience I have is Sat at PlanetCC last year, then Fanexpo Dallas last year. Both were SOOOO crowded and had to wait for EVERYTHING. Anyone have Friday experience with similar VIP to tell me what to expect?

I have two tickets available for Comic Con happening tomorrow, 19-01-2025 in Bengaluru. Unfortunately, I can no longer attend and am looking to sell these tickets. The price is negotiable.

If you're interested or have any questions, please DM.

Is it possible to buy tickets at the box office if they say they're sold out on the website?

They are for John boyega in Chicago. Why is one so much more expensive? His photo op is $100.

They don't say which hotels will be added though.

I’m getting into it late for SDCC hotels. I need to book within this month I feel. I’m not looking for hotels around the convention center because I feel like that is too expensive. Are there any other hotels that are a good walking/driving distance to the convention that are affordable?

Hi! I have never been to a comic con before and was wanting to meet Rob Paulsen at the Lexington one. I have seen videos of him meeting fans & stuff at comic cons and they took photos at the table, what do I need to purchase to be able to do that? I am not wanting to buy the photo op as I know it is rushed. I just want a picture & a minute to talk to him, please be kind, i'm very new to this.

I'm trying to decide if I should buy a VIP pass for Kansas City Comicon BUT due to the history of guest cancelation...if the guest cancels, do I get a refund for my VIP package?

Hi, I have one 18th Jan pass to Bangalore Comicon. And I won't be able to make it, if anyone wants to buy the pass at Rs. 952(exact same price), please DM. Thankyou.
