One of the very best comic-book/ sci-fi conventions returns this weekend of Dec. 1-3, 2017: WinterCon! Last year was an amazing experience, one of the best cons that I attend of all 2016, They had. among many other amazing guests, a Road Warrior reunion, and more! This year promises to be even more awesome!
Among the cool as hell guests that WinterCon will have include are a Blade Runner and a Buck Rogers reunion! I am fan of both, as I grew up watching Buck Rogers and Blade Runner is one of my personal favorite movies of all time!
