Pretty Much All Year Long I don’t really understand why people say that it’s “convention season” because “convention season” is pretty much a year round thing. I mean, there have been conventions taking place in pretty much every month for quite a few years now. But since it seems to be the cool thing toContinue reading “It’s Convention Season!”

Gulf Coast Fan Fest 2018!
Biloxi, MS The beautiful Mississippi Coast Convention Center was home to Gulf Coast Fan Fest over the past weekend in Biloxi, MS. I attended both days of the event and I had a really great time. I arrived in Biloxi on Friday afternoon and caught up with some good friends before heading out to theContinue reading “Gulf Coast Fan Fest 2018!”
CyPhaCon 2018!
Lake Charles, LA I had the pleasure of attending CyPhaCon this weekend at the Lake Charles Civic Center. In its eighth year, CyPhaCon has seen steady growth over the course of its existence. It has morphed into an excellent pop culture convention that draws anime, science fiction, comic, tabletop, and gaming fans. I arrived atContinue reading “CyPhaCon 2018!”
Wanna Be Famous????
On This Very Blog I’m sure that you are all aware that convention season is upon us. Last year was a bust for me as I only attended one convention (Louisiana Comic Con, which was awesome). This year I plan on attending a few more. I have definite plans to attend CyPhaCon in Lake Charles,Continue reading “Wanna Be Famous????”
“We Need No Longer Fear The Banana”
Space….The Not So Serious Frontier I’ve never really been a fan of the work of Seth MacFarlane. Outside of Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, there hasn’t been much that he’s cranked out over the years that I’ve truly come to love. Yes, I’ve seen a few episodes of Family Guy, American Dad, and The Cleveland Show,Continue reading ““We Need No Longer Fear The Banana””
I’m Jealous!
Not At A Convention! I have to admit that I am super jealous of all of my friends that have been attending conventions this year. Many of them went to Wizard World NOLA earlier this year, but this weekend a ton of them headed over to Pensacola, FL for Pensacon! It’s one of my wishlistContinue reading “I’m Jealous!”
Heating Up The South!
Somewhere in Mighty Mississippi The southern United States isn’t necessarily the first place that comes to mind whenever someone mentions geek culture, but geek culture is definitely thriving in key parts of the South. Almost all of the southern states have successful fan-run conventions. Some states, such as Louisiana and Mississippi, have multiple successful fan-runContinue reading “Heating Up The South!”
Louisiana Comic Con 2016!
Lafayette, LA The second year of Louisiana Comic Con in Lafayette was something of a whirlwind for me. Life has been throwing me some crazy curveballs lately and I wasn’t even sure if I’d be able to attend this year. As luck would have it, though, my Saturday opened up just enough for me toContinue reading “Louisiana Comic Con 2016!”
Busy Week/Weekend Ahead!
I Feel The Need For Speed! This is going to be a crazy week and an even crazier weekend. I’ve been working a ton of overtime lately and haven’t been able to pay much attention to this blog, pop culture, my scouting leader duties, or, most importantly, my family. From homecoming dances to camping outContinue reading “Busy Week/Weekend Ahead!”
A “Serial” Killer Event!
Sulphur, LA Over the weekend I had the grand opportunity to check out Calcasieu Serial Fest. While most of the conventions that I attend are generalized comic, science fiction, and/or pop culture based events, Calcasieu Serial Fest is a niche event that focuses on the classic cliffhanger serials from the 1930’s, 1940’s, and 1950’s. TheseContinue reading “A “Serial” Killer Event!”
