Charlotte Comicon
When: Sat., Aug. 18, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. 2018
Some people associate Comic-Con events with sweaty nerds in Batman shirts fawning over hot babes in Chun-Li costumes, but Charlotte Comicon has a promising line up of cool events that make the trip to Concord worthwhile. Cosplay-building workshops, a Q&A with two comic book legends, discussion panels and, of course, a costume contest fill the itinerary. It’s fun for the whole family, so grab your foam swords, your autograph books and your best Overwatch costume and fly that geek flag.
