That’s not all. There are comic artists and writers such as “Sin City” creator Frank Miller, “Uncanny X-men” creator Marc Silvestri, and many more who will be going “Pen to Pen”, a collaborative competition performing a raffle for fans. Also, notable guests such as “Transformers” voice actor Peter Cullen will be attending.
For those who are looking for thrills alongside the main activities, there are attractions like a fully-custom haunted house by Altamonte Springs’ “A Petrified Forest” and a haunted pop-up escape room.
There are also several activities for anime fans like an itasha car exhibit which they are decorated with vinyl featuring anime characters, a maid cafe emulating an experience only found abroad, a Japanese video game room, and several cosplay meetups and contests throughout the schedule.
