Fan Expo Dallas 2015 Paul Amos!Now that’s a once in a lifetime experience right there!

The special events offered by Fan Expo Dallas are definitely some of the best events that I have seen at the cons I have been to.

There are some opportunities to have once in a lifetime experiences that could make one of a kind memories to all who attend these events.

I know I am beyond excited to have the chance to be part of such extraordinary events.

Rounding out the celebrity guests is a list full of exciting people. Hollywood icons appearing are John Cusack, Joan Cusack, Curtis Armstrong and Rob Schneider!

S1x22 It Has Begun featuring George Takei_and_Mark HamillTo continue with guests celebrating the fantastic 50th anniversary of the Star Trek franchise is none other than Ensign Hikaru Sulu, George Takei!

Did you get a chance to see Mr. Takei’s guest spots on Lost Girl and The Neighbors with Mark Hamill of Star Wars fame?

Both are absolutely priceless performances by the tremendously talented Mr. Takei!

Fan Expo 2015 Vincent and Amy Doctor Who CosplayAlong with Stan Lee and Frank Miller, there are some awesome comic guests that includes: Todd McFarlane (creator of Spawn), Scott Campbell (Comic Book Artist), Leinil Francis Yu (Star Wars), and writer Dan Slott!

Comic book authors and illustrators are often the inspiration for movies, television shows and of course, Cosplay!

And as a Reading teacher, I have a lot of appreciation for authors and illustrators.

I have been able to get many reluctant readers to read comic books and graphic novels whom otherwise wanted nothing to do with actual reading, and everything to do with often mindless electronic gizmos! Score a victory for education via comics which often lead a young mind to other types of literature!

Fan Expo Dallas Labyrinth Cosplay 2015There are also Horror featured guests, Anime featured guests, Animation guests, and Gaming featured guests. I cannot fail to mention the Cosplay guests.

One of my favorite things about cons is seeing all the Cosplayers. There are some talented professional Cosplayers that are phenomenal!

It is very cool to walk through the crowd and see people involved in Cosplay. Are you creative or want to have some cosplay fun? Go for it!

I love seeing people of all ages having fun, and seeing the kids who cosplay is a cool experience.

I hope to see many of you at the absolutely fun filled Fan Expo Dallas Comic Con this weekend!

I am a lifetime fan of all things SciFi/Fantasy. It started by watching Star Trek reruns with my father when I was young. I realized that a little imagination can make life much more interesting. I teach Middle School Social Studies and Reading. I go to SciFi conventions every chance I get. I am an avid supporter of Stand For the Silent, an anti-bullying organization who's goal is to educate students about the harmful effects of bullying. Wife, mother, Nennah (grandma), Teacher, Writer, SciFi nerd are just a few of the words that describe me, and most of the time I am all of them at once.
