Con season is now in full swing, which for fans means sore feet, lighter wallets, and lots of nerding out in public. This is my third year attending the Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo, a still relatively new ReedPOP convention that has quickly become one of the largest shows in the midwest. Here is an overview of Friday and Saturday, including cosplayers, creators, fans, and merchandise from the con floor.
