Extremely quirky with excellent artwork! think if I were more familiar with cons all the references would probably make me smile. The premise built on fanboy/girl nerd culture is fun. I liked Destiny, and I'm not being biased. But I'm not interested in reading another volume.

I am not a big fan of science fiction or comic book conventions but I was able to appreciate the humor and the absurdity of this world that was created. This is for the fans that wish that the comic books conventions never end.

If you’re a fan of nerd culture this is definitely for you. An apocalyptic catastrophic of a never described nature happens and the area around the convention has been quarantined but the con never stopped! It’s been five years and folks have been living in the convention center, cosplay has devolved into real life roles, food is hard to come by except for hot dog carts. It’s madness! And a fun title with my favorite style of art (idk what it’s called by Oni Press always gives it to me).

the level of meta-nerdiness in this book was... staggering

ARC Review: Received for free via Netgalley for an honest review

It's like: What would happen if the world ended during Comic Con.

I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected I would. It's funny, which I liked.

I think the one thing that kind of bothered me, although it it didn't put me off, was the time jumps (though I liked the titles).

Either way, I really liked this and can't wait for more!
