GO Train Ambassador (on-board conductor): "... and if you're going to ComicCon, a reminder to keep your realistic props in a bag until you get to the event"

Who's swinging a sword on public transit? Stahp. You're scaring the normies.

What's the difference between being interested in something, and being a die-hard fan? According to Michael Elliott, a professor of sociology at Towson University, the latter have a level of devotion that is almost religious — and in some cases, fandom can even provide a moral code. "Many fans describe comic-con culture as a source of principles — such as inclusivity, compassion and self-development — that guide their behavior," writes Elliott for @TheConversationUS.

I really enjoyed MICE over the weekend (Massachusetts Independent Comics Expo). I thought I'd post some thoughts to Mastodon as I go through my spoils.

I just read through "Game Over" by Mac Maclean (mxmaclean.com/comics), and it's a really cool take on death in video games. Plus, I like their art a lot.

It seems like they've got some insightful and fun #videoGame and #ttrpg stories. Definitely worth taking a look!
