Kentucky. It makes you think of bourbon. Horses. Fried Chicken.
Well, the horse capital of the world is adding something to the list: a comic convention.
He may LOOK angry, but that’s his ‘happy to be here’ face.
That’s right! The first ever Lexington Comic & Toy Convention is coming March 24th. In a state that brought us Robert Kirkman (you know, the man who wrote The Walking Dead), you’d think the biggest surprise would be that it took so long for central Kentucky to hold a comic con.
That is, until you see who’s attending.
For the comic fans, creators Mike Grell (Green Lantern/Green Arrow), Bob McLeod (New Mutants), Craig Boldman (Superman; Jughead), Mark Kidwell (BUMP), and Allen Bellman (Marvel Mystery Comics, among others) will be in attendance.
Those with high senses of nostalgia will get a kick out of the Power Rangers cast in attendance: Jason David Frank, Nakia Burrise, Catherine Sutherland, Jason Narvy, and Paul Schrier.
Along with guests, several Q&A sessions and guest panels will be held, as well as a costume contest for attendees.
It will be held in the Heritage Hall East at the Lexington Convention Center in downtown Lexington. For more information, you can check out their Facebook/Twitter, or else go to their official website.
