Chicago's C2E2 Gave Fans a Fun Place to Play

This year marked the 10th Anniversary for Chicago's annual C2E2. The Comic Con's anniversary would celebrate by giving it's fans a jammed packed weekend.

I will admit, I've never attended the Comic Con prior to this year, I've been missing out!

Celebrity lineups and scheduled panels were impressive and fun. The variety of books and artists were likely some of my favorite things to explore at the convention.

Artist Alley allowed a very intimate place for fans to get close to some of their favorite artists and authors.

The opportunity to attend free classes was another great feature. These classes covered a variety of topics, including NANOWriteMO's session on how to stop overthinking and write a Novel in 30 Days.

Unlike many conventions, C2E2 knew how to keep kids entertained, which is important!

The Gaming Zone was a fun way for families to spend time together. Dremmel tools hosted DIY make and takes.

And SYFI Wire gave both kids and adults a chance to geek out again over their favorite TV Shows.

SYFY also moderated Adult Swim's 4th Season of Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell Panel. And the Crown Championships of Cosplay, Presented by Singer, was the final stop of ReedPop's global Championship of Cosplay Competition Series.

Comic Book fans and Literary Geeks, such as myself, had so many new options to check out. Picked up a copy of Steve Aoki's Neon Future, which is good.

It was fun to see both Harper Press and Anderson Books setup with booths. Picture Opportunities were everywhere - Marvel Comics was just one of the many vendors offering free photo opps for fans to take against a green screen.

Attendance was great all 3 days, even for what was expected to be slow periods such as Sunday afternoon, which may have been more crowded the previous day.
