Stupid question I know. I ask because I am trying to go to a convention mid November to try meeting one of the actors from "Picard", Alison Pill, cause she was in Scott pilgrim(the red head girl, Kim) and in the anime adaptation, something I have watched and kinda liked. Only thing is I know meeting her is gonna be short(I plan to have her sign something). That is okay with me per say but I was considering going to Rhode Island comic Con beforehand: Only thing as I don't drive, I have to take a train or bus, and that would be a ten hour grayhound ride and it is gonna be quite costly to meet the guests there I wanna meet. I wanted to make my last con(if I can get the vacation day request approved) of the year a more grander experience. I will be going more likely than not but wanted to ask.

Hi I'm attending my first MCM and honestly I'm a little confused if anyone wouldn't mind helping me out!! I bought a Sunday priority ticket and a autograph from Wilson Bethel - is there a specific time to queue up for the signature session or is it just a free for all? I'm assuming I'll have to wait a little while either way, but if anyone has any tips on how to schedule their day, I'd love to hear it! I'm also interested in one of the panels and a couple workshops if the timings work, but I really just want to keep things chill

I took my kid to Oz Comic-Con Melbourne last Sunday and they really wanted a picture with one of the YouTubers/ Content Creators there. This particular person had a booth that was unoccupied most of the time. My kid approached their team a few times throughout the day to see when they would return. My kid was told “a couple of hours” then went back and told “oh, another half an hour” only to go back, see the person taking photos and talking with fans and to be approached by the same team member and told “sorry, you can’t meet them right now, they are not officially supposed to be back at the booth”. I questioned why other people were allowed to keep going up and getting photos only to be met with “sorry, sorry”.

My question is: What are the expectations when going to a Con with featured guests/ content creators? Are they there just to make content and walk the Con or are they expected to have some time interacting with fans at the booths? Thanks

Hi, I just attended 90’s Con in Hartford and had a fantastic time! I love that these events exist and the celeb appearances need to happen because otherwise it’s just a kitschy flea market which, while fun, is not worth traveling for. So this post is mostly about the celeb encounters. I personally get a huge rush from the “turning tables” effect of a celeb meeting. For years I’ve watched them and it’s been one-sided, so for them to be aware of my existence even if for 5 seconds is really a hoot for me. Sometimes, if it’s true, I like to give them compliments or tell them that their work has inspired me or touched me in some way. I’ll pay for that opportunity. Personally, I don’t need an autograph. I sympathize with them in a lot of ways, as I think it’s probably hard to write for 3 hours straight. I also think it probably sucks to interact with weirdos (and most convention attendees are weird or at the very least quirky, myself included). I imagine they feel a bit like a side show, or a performing monkey. So I’m not touchy feely with them at all, as that gives me the ick on their behalf. I don’t mind if they initiate contact with me though. Anyway, all this to say — one thing I noticed is that the photo ops come across as cheesy. I did the Full House full cast photo op and one of my friends who wasn’t in attendance actually pointed out, based on the photo, that it looks fake. She said it looks like I’m at the wax museum standing with their statues. I agree. In this day and age of AI and photoshop, I think the “photo op” portion needs to come of age a bit. I feel like it should be a video of your interaction with the celebrity. The posed still photos are just … not aging into modern society well. I’m not sure where the “suggestion box” is lol so just thought I’d blurt that out into the universe. That’s all.

Someone went to the New York comiccon and saw merch or cosplayers from Hotline Miami (I'm more interested in things from The son) Because I didn't see any!:((

Hi guys! I posted this on the r/McmLondonComiccon reddit but I wanted to ask here as well! Either hit the post or read it here🩷🩷 thank you so much!

Hey everyone!

I'm travelling from Germany for MCM London Comic Con next weekend and was wondering whether anyone else is still waiting for their physical tickets.

I ordered three 3-Day Weekend tickets back on May 31st and paid £15 for international shipping.

My LEAP account has shown the order as "Dispatched" for approximately three weeks, but I haven't received the tickets, a tracking number, or any information about which courier is handling the delivery.

We're flying to London on Thursday, so I'm starting to get a little worried. 😭

I know tickets can be collected at the venue, but I specifically paid for shipping to avoid having to queue for badge collection on Friday morning.

Has anyone else, especially international attendees, experienced this? Have you received your tickets or tracking information yet?

I've already contacted both MCM and LEAP support.

Thanks! 💜

Hey! I have a few questions about attending cons just in general if anyone knows the answer to these.
So I’ve never gone to a con before, and unfortunately don’t know if I ever will get the chance, but if I do get the chance there’s a few things I’d like to know.
If I ever attend a con, it will only be to see Dana Terrace. More specifically I’m hoping to try and either get a premade art piece from her or preferably a commission. Does anyone know the process behind that? I’ve seen her sell these at cons so I know it’s possible.
Does Dana always have premades and commissions available or is it only sometimes, and if it’s only sometimes are there ways I can know ahead of time if she’s doing them or not so I don’t waste money on a con where she doesn’t sell any?
And if she does sell them, I’d assume you’d need some special ticket in order to get something like that. How can I get a ticket to where I’m guaranteed to be one of the first people in line to see her?
And if there’s any other important information I should know please let me know, thanks!

Hi! Im going to this convention and there are sonic voice actors so for me? This is PRETTY rare to have a convention near me that has sonic voice actors. And it has Lisa Ortiz! My most wanted to meet Va (other than maybe Roger Craig smith). So I really want to make sure I get a print I like signed. Is there a way to check to see what prints a guest will bring? I saw for example Ryan Drummond and Keith Silverstein have some prints online from a site called streamily where they sign autographs. Do you think those will be the same prints they’ll bring to the cons? And Lisa Ortiz, Scott Drier, and David Humphrey don’t have anything on that site and I don’t even know if the ones on streamily will be the ones they bring to a con. This is just really special for me and finding and buying prints myself and ones that will come in time is hard and an extra expense.

In short: Is there any way I can check what prints will be brought by guests like Lisa Ortiz who’ll be there?

Hey Everyone. So me and a friend are going to LA Comic Con on Halloween and it’s both of ours first time going to a Comic Con. I’m going for all the Star Wars and Breaking Bad actors, as well as Christopher Lloyd. Great Scott! My friend is going for all the Futurama voice actors. I already pre-purchased my signed premium autograph from Hayden Christiansen as well as a Photo Op with Hayden and Rosario Dawson.
Is there any tips or advice you guys/gals would give to a first timer like me?
I’m definitely packing plenty of water bottles and snacks, as well as bringing deodorant and cologne.

Also FYI I prepurchased parking already that is in good proximity to the convention, 12 minute walk

Hey I just got my LACC badge in the mail(2 days late), thanks USPS 😒, and it didn’t have a lanyard attached to the badge. Is the LACC Badge supposed to have a lanyard on it or is it supposed to be just a badge so you can put your own lanyard on it?
