Countdown To Akron Comicon Day 1
This coming Saturday is the 2nd Annual Akron Comicon. I went to the first one last year and had a blast! You can see my photos from it here. I'm really looking forward to going again this year.
To get myself in the mood, I am wearing a different comic book shirt each day this week and will share a picture of it for all to see. Because who doesn't like to see my t-shirt collection? :)
