I have been on the verge of writing about this experience for some time now. Here are the accounts of one of my most favorite Comic-Con experiences.
Once in a while you get to experience events that are so awesome, there are hardly any words for them. The summer of 2017 I had the privilege of going to the Harrisburg Comic-Con with one of my good friends, Nick. I participated in my first live panel discussion and got to hear from actors from my favorite show,
The Flash. Both actor's
Matt Lescher (The Reverse Flash) and
Michelle Harrison (Nora Allen) were discussing the direction that the TV series was going, along with
DC's Legends of Tomorrow as Matt was the main villain in that show for Season 2. I sat in awe of their understanding of the vast universe I have fanboyed over for years!

I pre-paid for photos with two of the stars, one from
Arrow,
David Ramsey and the second from The Flash, Matt. They took fan photos as well as signed memorabilia afterward. The experience was much more interesting than any other Comic-Con that I could have attended because I was doing some things there for the first time that I had not done before. I found some great comics for my collection, sat in my first Comic-Con Panel and met some great actors all in the same day. I have each of my autographed photos as well as the stand-in photos with Matt and David hanging in my classroom, and that helps spur some everyday conversations about my favorite shows with students who also have a love of DC's live-action shows.

Now with the Harrisburg Comic-Con Cancelled for the 2nd year in a row I am looking into how I can re-create this time. My next reflection will be about the other events I have been a part of, so subscribe and look out for more musings from my adventures in comic-dom!
