HeroesCon 2016 In Charlotte, NC


On Sunday, June 19th, my travels took me to North Carolina to the Charlotte Convention Center and the final day of the 2016 HeroesCon, which is always a blast for a huge comic nerd like me. As always, I look forward to these annual events and meeting interesting folks with similar interests in everything from classic monsters, science fiction, comics, cartoons, and cult classic films.

The following are photos that I took of the trip, including a number of amazing artwork and cosplayers dressed as various favorite characters.

I was at this place last week. This is such a joy as a place for food! I had a beautiful time here. It reminded me of another center in Texas. A beautiful, wonderful venue Houston TX that had excellent atmosphere.

It is a pretty amazing place. I didn't really get to try the food there cause of the loooong lines (LOL!) but I totally enjoy the way they have the place laid out. The atmosphere there is just marvelous. Glad you liked it.
