Pop-culture Dominates Portland at the 2015 Rose City Comic Con
September 18th, 2015Where can you find the original Princess Leia, over 250 artists from around the world, discussion panels with well-known celebs, a Red Cross blood drive at the “vampire cocktail lounge,” and of course fellow comic enthusiasts in spectacular costumes? Only at the 2015 Rose City Comic Con! We know Portland, and we know that an event like this brings out the quirkiness and nerdiness in the best of us, and it’s also one of the reasons we are proud to be keeping Portland weird. This Portland comic convention is in its 4th year, and is bringing in some big names, including Caroll Spinney who was a Sesame Street puppeteer playing Oscar the Grouch and Big Bird. So many memories! Whether you’re a hardcore fan of comics, gaming, sci-fi, cosplay, anime, or fantasy, or if you’re a newbie curious about this community, get yourself over there and expect to have a blast!
