  • CODA (the brainchild of Mondo co-founder and Grammy award-winning designer Rob Jones, Spoke Art gallery owner Ken Harman, and Animal Rummy‘s Jenni Jones) is bringing some mutant mayhem to WonderCon with a pair of officially licensed posters inspired by “Fall of the Mutants”, the 1980’s Marvel crossover event that gave fans big moments for the X-teams. The hand-numbered screen prints, pulled from recreated vintage Marvel ads, will make their debut at Booth #1957 this weekend.

  • The Tuesday Morning Screening Room podcast is bringing a slew of talent to their Booths #DL-103 and #DL-104 this weekend, including Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures voice actor Piotr Michael, Transformers: Earthspark voice actor Benni Latham, and more. You can find the full schedule below or on Instagram.

  • Care Bear countdown to WonderCon! Artist Val Hochberg is celebrating two of Care-a-lot’s cutest residents with this original art, available at #C-60. Make sure you hurry to her booth before someone snags your favorite(s)!

  • She’s also bringing her own devilish take on Daredevil with this original art, also available at #C-60.

  • But Val isn’t done yet, as she’s also got a very good boy indeed, in the form of Krypto. As these are all original artworks, make sure you hit up #C-60 to grab your favorite before it’s gone.

  • Love LatinX animation? Join the LXiA meet-up on Saturday from 2pm-4pm at unsung Brewery to hang out with fellow fans and professionals. You can RSVP online now.

  • We could all use a little extra magic in our lives. Author Megan Haskell (The War of the Nine Faerie Realms) is bringing her expansive fantasy novels to #SP-26 in Small Press, and here’s a preview of what she’ll have available:

  • Playing with your food has never been more fun. Artist Kim Winberry is bringing her new trading card game, “Bite Me“, to WonderCon #L-13. It features original artwork, and a deliciously fun game in which players climb the food chain to become the ultimate Apex Predator.

  • Prefer your Stranger Things fandom less shippy and more mashed up with cats? Clockwork Art’s got you. This trippy, darkly fun art is purr-fect to add to your collection, so claw your way over to #D-64.

  • Artist Andi Dukleth wants to give you the greatest gift… and we don’t mean the gift of eternal life, but rather the gift of her Castlevania prints, foil prints, pins, original art, and more. The foil prints in particular is really something to behold — because as Twilight taught us, sometimes it’s just more fun when vampires sparkle.
  • Handcrafted Geek has one more abstract creation to show off before WonderCon, celebrating the Studio Ghibli classic Castle in the Sky. You’ll find all of her fun, geometric interpretations of pop culture characters at #F-22 in Artist Alley.

  • All artists know this universal truth: Art supplies are expensive. So swing by the Art Supply Warehouse Booth #2236 to find deals, the chance to try COPIC markers, and even pick up a free gift for visiting the booth, while supplies last.

  • It’s Morphin’ time! Selwyn Ward, the Blue Ranger from Power Rangers in Space and the Red Ranger from Power Rangers: Turbo will be signing at Booth #1347 on Saturday.

  • You scream, I scream, we all scream for… Paola Bascon! Her new sticker looks good enough to eat, and this delicious new offering will be available at Booth #B-38. She’ll also have an Ice Cream necklace available in very limited quantities, so don’t miss your chance to “scoop” one up.
