Steel City Con Dec 7-9, 2018
Posted: Wed Dec 05, 2018 11:49 pm
Heroineburgh is really excited to return to Steel City Con in Monroeville, PA (home of the mall-walking zombies) to premiere Episodes 11-13 in the big Event Hall and to woman (is that a verb? it should be!) our booth in Artists' Alley for the whole weekend, featuring live appearances of 12 heroines and villainesses from the series. Three of the actresses are so excited that they put their superheroine personas in their Facebook profile (see below). Now that is the kind of enthusiasm we like to see!
But of course, Heroineburgh is just a very small part of this event, with dozens of vendors, dozens more booths in Artists' Alley, comic book creators, the celebrity panels and autograph sessions, and the hard-fought Cosplay Contest on Sunday. Personally we are looking forward to meeting Brent Spiner (Data), Denise Crosby (Tasha Yar), Dean Cain (Superman on Lois & Clark;Jonathan Kent on Supergirl) and the ladies from Fresh Prince of Bel Air.
And on Friday night, we roll back into Pittsburgh proper, to celebrate the art exhibit of DC Comics' Jason Wright, debuting at the Spirit Lodge. Jason (who has colored the likes of Batgirl and Green Lantern) is the artist you've seen create comic book likenesses of the Heroineburgh characters. He'll also be performing in two local bands (one of which features our evil villainess Serpenta on bass, if you've seen her origin in Episode 9).
Looking forward to posting lots of cool cosplay photos in this thread in a few days....if you're near Southwestern PA, stop by at the Con and say hi to us at the booth!
Bridget is the breathtaking Arctica, queen of the frost! (appearing Saturday afternoon)
Kristin is the brave Jinniyya, mistress of the wind! (appearing Saturday afternoon)
Mauricia is the rough-and-ready Vendetta, the Italian assassin! (appearing Sunday afternoon)
