Last Year at Vision Con we met a lot of really interesting people. Ernie Hudson from GhostBuster's was the highlight Guest of Honor. We also met Artists producing some kick ass content. CosPlay Experts showing how they build what they build. Gamers, and FANS oh my! Right here we met Satan as he announced he was going to run for Political Office.....gulp!
This years line up is just amazing. Here's a sampling of what you will see this year.
